Douglas Is Cancelled (2024)
Brilliant just brilliant
One of the best mini series I've watched in a long while. The acting by everyone is absolutely top notch probably because the writing and direction is of an extremely high standard. Not to mention the editing which often goes without the praise it deserves. The emotional delivery of quick fire line after line demonstrates the quality of this show throughout. I'd usually call out the lead actors for their brilliance, but in this case everyone played an important and valuable role, however small, in making this an enjoyable watch to the very end, and watching to the end is so worth it, trust me. Highly recommended.
The Traitors UK (2022)
It went from a 10 to a 1
So this show has had me gripped for several weeks now it has been an amazing program to watch. The concept of the game is amazing, the creators are unbelievably talented people to come up with a gameshow as good as this. It pits normal people against each other for cash prizes, what better way for drama, however the last episode left me with a bitter taste in my mouth. All throughout the previous episodes no one has been allowed to (probably by the producers of the show) say anything remotely revealing so as to obviously give away the identity of any of the other players. Amanda said nothing when Will voted her off. But blow me, the final had Kieron say what he said to Will was totally unforgivable and should not have been allowed. And how contradictory was Hannah, she believed absolutely everything that Will said throughout the entire show but turned on him in a flash because of that single comment. It completely spoilt the ending of the show. It wasn't in keeping with the spirit of the rest of the game and the players. Will had played the game of his life and deserved the win over all of them.
Moonfall (2022)
Seriously? Must be aimed at kids under 6
Where do I begin. I cannot believe the actors in this put their names to it. It's an absolute cringe fest. There are too many faux pars to list. Too many clichés to list. If you're at sub human intelligence then you'll probably enjoy it. Anything above this and it really is an insult to one's intelligence. Unless you're under the age of about 6 or 7 you will find this far too cringeworthy to watch. You'll only sit through the agony just to see how bad it really gets and how improbable the whole premise of the farce really is. The world is literally becoming extinct but all bar one of the main characters survives without so much as a scratch or a hair out of place. I had to suspend my disbelief to get through this but that wasn't enough, eventually I had to perform a self frontal lobotomy. If you believe that then you'll believe this film.
Grace (2021)
Not faithful to the novel
Having read the novel by Peter James this episode is way off the mark in so many details. There's no suspense, no feeling of urgency to find the missing groom. Would have been better served to be a mini series instead of one episode. Really rather poor adaptation. Do not recommend watching it.
Greta (2018)
Dreadful
Too many plot holes, too many stupid decisions by all involved. Probably better watching a student project than this utter nonsense.
Upload (2020)
Grilled cheese
If you can get past the first 5 minutes of this show then it's for you. I couldn't without wanting to cringe into my grilled cheese. Nuff said.
Looking Glass (2018)
All the time I was just wondering if you want to be a good day at work
So basically I'm going to get to the store and buy it for the weekend with the girls and the other day when using the same thing as well but you don't have any questions or concerns and the other side is a very long time ago
Unforgettable (2017)
Yawn fest
Very poor predictable effort. The two leading ladies probably took this film on to fill a few hours of boredom one day. They have both been in some excellent films but this was tedious. I was surprised with myself that I stuck with it. Swerve this one. Find yourself another Prime/Netflix flop. As that's all they can serve up. Will be cancelling them both very soon.
Another Life (2019)
Speed of light
This is a really difficult show to watch I am halfway through episode one after hearing the fact that they can travel faster than the speed of light so why it takes six months to get there wherever they're going and back again if you can travel faster than light is bollox as you can be anywhere in the universe all at the same time. check the science of faster than light travel and you will understand that this show loses all credibility as soon as that mis-fact is revealed.
Safe (2018)
Ignore the detractors
Really good suspense whodunnit. Ignore the negative reviews this is well worth watching. Piece by piece events are put together in a nice timeline over 6 days. It kept me guessing until the last episode. The ending is not crap like people are saying. For me it was a logical conclusion. Recommended viewing. Reasonable cast. Watch it.
Death Wish (2018)
Utter drivel
If you're gonna remake an absolute classic movie then at least respect it. This is utter trash. No depth. No plot. Stupid one liners. The falling bowling ball. Ffs really?! Don't waste your time with this.
