Training Day (2017)
Poor is a description for this series that does not even come close to what i really think.
Hammy and full of awful one liners. I initially thought it was a comedy.
Although you are initially pushed into the deep end at the start of the 1st episode, somehow you just know what scene is coming up next and exactly how the characters are going to interact. Training day pretends to be gritting and hard hitting but its as authentic as the 80's series A team but without the slapstick humour.
Poorly written, poorly edited and I feel poor as I lost 30 minutes of my life watching it. OK, so the acting and direction was not bad however, if you are going to attempt to make a spin off of the cult classic then at least spent more than a day writing the series.
Pure (2017)
Unrealistic - Pure and simple ( Spoiler ALERT )
Member of Mennonite congregation gets bumped up to paster. Meanwhile another senior member of the sect, who also went for the paster role is running one of the largest drug importation businesses in the U.S. on behalf of the Christian based Mennonite MOB.
As the local police somehow stumble upon finding out that the group are also premier league drug distributors, the paster ends up being the defacto leader of the Mennonite local mob as they arrest the previous leader.
Acting is good, screenplay, direction and everything delivers entertainment. But please, half of the membership ultra religious Christian sect also are drug dealers while the other half don't know anything.
