The Christmas Chronicles: Part Two (2020)
Not a worthy sequel
As cute as the first C. C. was, this sequal only manages to tic a few of the P. C. Police's boxes. It lacks the originality of the first movie with it's mandatory reprise of Santa singing his decidedly forgettable "jailhouse rock wannabe. " It was more interested in being PC than it was being funny. Watch the first, very enjoyable, Christmas Chronical again, it was the far better movie.
Hunters (2020)
Snatched Defeat out of the Jaws of Victory!
This went from a very interesting, well acted and written show to a LOSER all because they wanted to shock and surprise the audience! The big " twist" simply ruined the story and robbed it of future seasons. Show coulda been an 8, instead it gets a generous "2." Hey, endings matter. ;)
The Ballad of Buster Scruggs (2018)
Great start, garbage ending
The best part of the movie is the first 2 stories, the prospector is amusing but OMG the 3rd and 5th stories are so dark and depressing, they ruined what started off so good. I turned it off after the wagon train fiasco. Watch the 1st 2 then find something else to watch, save yourself the misery. Well acted and photographed though.
Survivors Guide to Prison (2018)
should be titled : everyone in prison is a VICTIM! They are ALL INNOCENT!
Very misleading title, it is in reality Hollywood's far left love affair of criminals while simultaneously hating Law Enforcement! Everyone in prison is innocent, the police are all evil and intentionally throw law abiding people in prison! Oh yes and Prison is so unfair, it is no fun and makes it hard to make phone calls as often as you want. Hey, prison does suck but it is supposed to! Do some people get wrongly convicted? Absolutely but thanks to DNA it happens less and less often. In reality, you have to either commit a heinous, violent crime or be a repeat felon to be sentenced to prison. This movie makes me sick! I was especially disappointed with Danny Trejo, I thought he was a "straight shooter" that supposedly has done a lot of work trying to rehabilitate convicts. THIS SHOW WAS GARBAGE!
Versailles (2015)
Season1 good, season 2 ruined it
Season1 was quite interesting and introduced some very likable characters, Season2 the king becomes such an ASS that it is impossible to pull for him! The writers kill off the most likable characters ( which has become the most predictable and annoying action of all today's writers, How about letting us have a few people we can "pull for" that actually live...just to be different) so that there is almost no one to "root for" in Season2. Season 2 simply ruins everything that Season 1 built up. I have no intention of wasting my time on Season3. It would be more enjoyable watching endless reruns of the past 3 presidential elections, than to see another Season of this annoyance!
