Homeland: The Star (2013)
Closing Time
I was starting to worry about this episode and the entire series during the first 20 minutes. Would this season, just like the second one, end with some miracle escape? I really respect the writers for the capture and execution of Brody. It was the only correct way to go. Making the escape a success would be quite unrealistic and way too much of a happy ending. I do believe that this should have been the final episode of the show. Too often American shows last longer than their due date (Prison Break, Lost,...). Three seasons might not be that long but why drag it out any further? The story is complete. Breaking Bad realised this and ended perfectly. This episode and season also ended very well, but I don't really have a need for a season 4. There is nothing left to tell and starting a new storyline doesn't feel right.
Olympus Has Fallen (2013)
Next Generation Die Hard
I'm not going to make this a long, slow and boring review since the movie is the opposite of that. I wonder why some people dislike this movie because it lacks realism. Die Hard I, II and III are well regarded and you can hardly call any of them realistic. The movie does what it is meant to do: establish a fast pace that doesn't slow down, provide entertainment and deliver a classic good guy vs. bad guy face-off. Yes there a lot of clichés and of course this could never happen in real life but anybody with expectations of anything else shouldn't watch the movie or get a reality check. I enjoyed every minute of it!
