The Acolyte (2024)
The Acting is so bad it's like watch lame porn adult "movie" without the fun parts
The acting and dialogue is so bad it feels like they hired dialogue writers who were fired from the CW shows. Most of the actors are terrible, and then kill off the one superstar female actress they had in the first 5 minutes of the first episode.
Southpark was prescient with their episode of "put a chick in it and make her gay and lame."
It's like bad fan fiction put into a Star Wars Skin suit. The one positive of the show is that the camera movement, and sets look good.
The pacing, and dialogue are so terrible it pulls you out of the show in the first 10 minutes, it's really just that bad.
What a let down.
Code 8: Part II (2024)
How did this abomination get made?
The first Code 8 was so good for a limited budget movie. Story, effects, acting, stellar.
This Second one is an abomination. The Story is so bad, I can't even bring myself to explain it, but needless to say, it's boring from start to finish.
It's literally one of the most painfully stupid storylines I've watched in years. Terrible character development, terrible characters. Stupid premises, terrible "fight scenes". You name it.
Do not waste your time with this trash, just watch the first one again, and save yourself the pain.
These production companies need to fire all their writers from the last 5 years or so and get the ones back from the past who knew how to write a good story.
Robyn Hood (2023)
So horrible it's funny.
I'm not even sure how to say this, but it was so horrible, halfway through I found myself laughing it was so bad. I have honestly never done that before in a TV show. Between the terrible writing, the terrible acting, the terrible CGI, the terrible stunt effects. This reminds me of something made by a high school kid and his friends. They cast a white woman as the "sheriff" who must be 100lbs wet, who biceps are smaller than my wrists. She "kicks" a cop and knocks him over after they fail her. It's so laughably painful to watch.
The entire story is just some high school kids, and Robyn, who the actress is probably 110lbs, can just throw grown male cops in gear around like they are ragdolls with no training or super powers.
It's cringe, it's stupid, it's dumb, to the point I laughed. Might be the worst show ever made for TV.
Last Light (2022)
Find better writers
The problem with television is that it's written by morons. The premise is that a man made bacteria that eats oil is used as a weapon to eat all the oil. The problem here is very basic. Bacteria does not survive in extreme temperatures or pressures. The basic refining process of oil into gas, or other complex hydrocarbons would destroy it on it's own. But lets say this a super bacteria, that could survive up to the 140c mark, the most heat resistant bacteria known to man. Even at that point you'd have another 100c+ to play with to kill it because Crude Oil doesn't flash until 250c+
It's a silly premise that would simply never work out, and you don't have to be a chemist or physicist to figure that out.
There's also all kinds of other problems with the show. The power goes out, but Hospitals don't have Generators? As if cellphone towers have better generator systems than Hospitals? Lol. It's just silly.
Evil: The Demon of the End (2022)
My God this show has gone downhill
Not sure what to say beyond I basically hate watched this entire season. It was god awful. The writers are terrible, the characters are just cognitively dissonant all the time. Motives are all over the place. The story doesn't even make sense anymore. All the silly little racism jabs in every other episode that come out of no where. Tragic, because season 1 and 2 of this show were amazing.
The Sandman (2022)
The most boring hour of TV...
I'm a huge Dark Fantasy guy, so this should be my cup of tea. That being said, I watched episode 1, and only episode 1, as I was completely bored 20 minutes in. The characters besides Dream are completely forgettable and the pacing is so SLOW! I couldn't wait for it to end, and there's a little redemption in the last few minutes. That being said, it's one of the most boring fantasy shows I've ever seen and have no intention of finishing it. I gave it a few stars because it's Dark Fantasy, otherwise it'd be a 1.
Resident Evil: Welcome to New Raccoon City (2022)
What an absolute Dumpster Fire
Whoever thought we wanted a CW scripted Resident Evil show should be fed to the Zero's. That being said I have to give this show a single star, because the Dad (Albert Wesker) is great, sadly he gets about 5 mins of air time.
The Terminal List (2022)
Don't let the first episode fool you, it's AMAZING!
The first half of the first episode is a very paint by numbers Navy Seal show. Don't let that fool you, once you are past that it's becomes an absolutely amazing show. I really didn't have high expectations as most of the Amazon stuff like Wheel of Time was a letdown...
This show is right up there with Reacher for me, not sure which I like better... well worth your time.
Santa Inc. (2021)
So Bad it Hurts.
Pineapple Express is one of my favorite comedies.
This is so bad I can't believe Seth Rogan is involved. It's not even funny, it's just mean-spirited. Who wants that kind of garbage at Christmas? I guess it's for people who hate Christmas.
IMDb on the Scene - Interviews: The Wheel of Time (2021)
A bit painful...
Two Rivers is supposed to be a small area that's been isolated for 2000+ years, yet we have a hodge podge of different ethnic groups? After 1-2 generations they'd all look the same.
The show gives me more old attempts at D&D movie vibes than Game of Thrones or LOTR, which it should for the budget.
The real saving grace of the show is Rosamund Pike and Daniel Henney (Moiraine and Lan) the 4 kids are really wooden actors.
The only A+ this show gets is Moiraine's Magic. At least they did a decent job with the CGI there.
Chad (2021)
Don't waste your time.
This is pure dumpster fire material. I wasted 30mins of my life, so you don't have to. Was really hoping there'd be a good show representing Persian's, this ain't it.
Who the hell thought an adult woman could play a male Teenager?
The Predator (2018)
You won't believe how bad it is till you see it.
I was lucky, didn't see it in theaters. Heard it was terrible, and my god was it.
I'm really not sure how you could get everything so wrong, and multiple reviewers have done plenty to point out some of the stupidity in it. Here's two things I haven't seen.
They use his 10 year old son who is autistic as the hero of the movie because he magically speaks Predator. This kid is surrounded by extreme rated R death scenes and never gets a drop of blood on him, or is bothered by it at all.
The reason the Predators are coming to Earth? Global Warming/Climate Change. Yep, that's right folks. We're all going to be dead in a generation or two, so the Predators are coming to get that Human DNA before we're all dead.
The Shear stupidity in this film from end to end is worth the watch. It's really that bad.
Iron Fist (2017)
It's good, don't listen to the SJW Haters.
If you like the other Netflix Marvel Shows, you'll like this. Not as good as Daredevil, but better than JJ and Luke Cage. The Characters are good, the acting is good, and the martial arts scenes are great. Just what you'd expect.
Reviewers need to stop the hate because of their social BS.
