Spread (2024)
Don't waste your time
I have watched I don't know how many movies, but this has to be on eof the worst.
I seriously have to ponder who comes up with this stuff, it's like they expect that because the film touches on to a sexually subject people will be want to watch it.
And they try that path straight up with the language and discussing porn early on.
The movie has no substance in where it is going to go, it is is saying watch me for shock value, the actors are not appealing or entertaining, and I would expect that this is to no surprise, considering the script they have to deal with.
It is an absymal movie and one not to watch.
The Last of Us: Left Behind (2023)
Filler Episode
These are the reasons why I turn off these shows.
Filler episodes, The Walking Dead would do it, I just gave up watching.
This is season 1 and already into filler episodes, I know they get paid for content but it is the reason people turn on.
They could have compressed this into 15 minutes and still had a good episode, but watching this it dragged on and on awaiting to see what happened.
And it feels like a long Episode.
Yes every episode cannot be full on but there are ways of building a episode and I hope this is not how season 2 will pan out, I would prefer 2 episodes less and more quality content.
Benidorm (2007)
Great show
Being an Australian, I loved this show I find english humour so enjoyable.
The Garvey's were the key to the show, but it had a great mix.
I would say the first 5 seasons are easily the best, after that it does slowly start to struggle.
You can only do so many jokes so often, and this ran for 10 seasons.
I would definitely recommend watching, and it's an easy watch.
I found the episodes when they went to 45 mins smart idea.
And how one season is like a week is hilarious overall.
But as we know with all shows they struggle to have the ending we all want, as shows get cancelled, not many go out on there own terms.
Dracula Has Risen from the Grave (1968)
Another great one
It was first Dracula movie I watched I was 7 in mid 70's, it's my go to Dracula movie, it goes at good pace.
Lee always is great
Carlson you can't take your eyes off.
Hammer greatest at making horror movies.
Worst Roommate Ever (2022)
2 out 4 int bad
The 1st 2 episodes were really good, episode 3 ok, episode 4 just dragged.
I had seen other doc re episode 1, but this was a good spin.
As I said good start but flat ending by the 4th.
Bloodride (2020)
Norway Another Hit
I have watched a few series and movies through various streaming companies, and I find Norway seems to kick goals
You do see a few of the same actors but they are quality actors and in Bloodride it's another goal kicked.
Frikjent (2015)
Fjords Frikjent
What a TV show watched in 24 hours, dont worry about the subtitles you find that you are not reading them when you are.
Beautifully paced with plenty of twists and turns throughout the show, a family bent to protect there past no matter who gets hurt past present or future.
I dont want give anything else away in spoilers then the family.
The scenery and how it was shot, you want to be there to visit, to see the village to the fjords the mountains the roads, and what was smart is how season 2, follows on from season 1 in respect we are now into winter, it allowed us to see the village and surrounds for a 12 month perspective, just beautiful, i need to visit one day, just to admire the beauty.
Lets say the shows was remade in the USA, it would be destroyed no way in the world can this show be done that way, a true Scandinavian feel.
Dahmer (2002)
Very Disappointed in this depiction of Dahmer
I watched the movie, thinking i was going to get something like, reading his biography, or off the crime web site, what we got was a dahmer, where we didn't see what true horrors this man performed, it glossed over this, which when depicting this mans life story, the full truth must be told, the director certainly showed the police bumbling twice when had chance to stop Dahmer, that was certainly pushed in the movie.
What we didn't get to see was the true animal Dahmer was, there was no court seen as well, some of these movies actually have footage of the person themself again, this movie missed the boat there, a very poor attempt at a movie that was well more then 10 years after the event.
Countess Dracula (1971)
One of the worst Hammer movies
I watched this movie and it took me 3 days to get through it, save for Ingrid Pitt looking great as usual, this movie dragged so slowly, By using the word Dracula in title you naturally thinking Vampires, well thats not what you get. Lesley Anne-Down is very under used in her role, and he being held hostage, i was closer to laughter then horror.
There was one role when the found a body in the woods, and it looked more like a mannequin then a body.
For those who enjoyed the hammer movies, miss this one and do yourself a favour, the acting was more wooden, the a stake through old Dracula's heart, and if you are looking for anything like this, in this movie you are sadly mistaken.
Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man (1991)
What a great fun action movie
This movie has been knocked for ages, but if you sit down kick back and relax this is the movie for you, its a movie for a warm Saturday night, with a couple of beers, and just watch the action as Don Johnson & Mickey Rourke have fun with this movie, there is enough laughs and a huge amount of action to satisfy anyone, who enjoys a movie where you don't have to think about every detail for the length of the film.
With names like Harley Davidson,Marlbro, Jack Daniels & Virginia Slims you know this is not a serious movie but one to be enjoyed for what it is.
A young Tia Carrere has a small bit part in the movie as well.
But for those who love action, well he we have a movie to be enjoyed
The New Guy (2002)
Very Funny movie Eliza Dushku looks better and better
A very funny movie the new guy, works on the old principal of the underdog, winning in the end. The movie shows the acting ability of DJ Qualls who plays the nerd turned tough guy, with a heart role superbly. Elisha Dushku keeps your eyes fixed to the screen at every minute, she is more then a looker but a very good actress. The movie has very little or no down time in it, is a laugh a minute. Eddie Griffin roles as the convict, giving the look is great, they could have used him more in his role, but is was played to perfection. Some little send ups of previous action movies only add to the whole picture, I don't want to mention them here as its better to get the full impact on watching this very funny movie.
Top Secret! (1984)
Laugh all the Way Through
A great movie, the debut of Val Kilmer, who showed comedy is right up his alley, he also does the soundtrack to the movie, great slapstick and plenty of send ups, having a go at the then East Europeans. Fantastic cameo role by Peter Cushing who also shows he can handle a comedic role, in one of his last movies, for those who enjoy comedy, some fun action, and a entertaining movie this is the one for you.
The scene in the jail with the tunnel, firing squad and concert are a hoot, Val singing songs from the Beach Boys & Elvis with adjusted lines, nearly stills the movie.
Omar Shariff is another with guest role shows he is no slouch in a comedic role.
When you watch the movie just sit down feet up and relax, and let the movie take you for a ride.
The Abominable Dr. Phibes (1971)
classic Vincent Price horror comedy flick
Great movie to just sit back and enjoy, seeing Vincent play this part, will have you laughing throughout the movie, might i say the actors playing the police nearly steal the movie. The movie actually moves quite quickly, there is no slow area of the flick, just good early 1970's style. The color throughout the movie is bold, and the dry sense of humor of all involved make this movie, one for anyone's library.
For those who watch this on DVD, the trailer for the movie is a must to be watched, it is classic, how towards the end of the trailer you are advised that this movie may be the most frightening movie you will ever see.
