It is that good
This picture has it all. Rich storytelling looking at two cultures from different perspectives love story with metaphysical overtones.
I don't know what this is Celine Song first film and I certainly hope it's not her last. She could teach a master class on how to become an a auteur.
Anyone who's has a first love in their childhood or teens can certainly appreciate the range of emotions that come in to play when they meet again with their crush. Sometimes longing and sometimes great relief that they did not choose them.
It is called life.
Yellowstone: Daybreak (2018)
Start off showing breathtaking poor judgment by lead character
Unlike his ancestor James Dutton, from 1883, John Dutton is an idiot. In the first episode, he attempts to retrieve a bunch of cattle from an Indian reservation. Rather than negotiating, he chooses to use force, using a helicopter, Land Management officers, and horsemen to attack the Native Americans. In the process his son is killed, and another son is forced to kill his wife's brother and is now being investigated for murder. Way to go John. I will continue to watch and see if he continues to use poor judgement as in the first episode.1883 was an authentic western with a magnificent story and characters. We will see about this.

Couldn't get over the premise
Couldn't get over the premise. Watch the first episode and found it absolutely ridiculous. There's no way that blind people could do what these people do.
How do you find a horse that's run away from you? How do you know who is friend or foe?
How do you slay an animal when you can't see it?
A population of blind people in a Paleolithic environment what produce mass starvation.
The White Lotus (2021)
Outstanding
A for story, acting, production values and music. Each character is developed such that you know them and their perspective. Emmys all around.
The Upshaws (2021)
Laugh track
Laugh track awful. Ruins show. Many laughs first
five minutes. Nothing funny. Drives me nuts. Others apparently don't mind it.
The Ranch (2016)
Laugh track makes it unwatchable
What a disappointment. I wish there was a way to delete laugh track.
I Care a Lot (2020)
Awful in every way
Could not of been worse.
Totally unentertaining don't waste you time.
The Midnight Sky (2020)
Music the worst part
I tried to like this movie. Cinematography and acting was fine. CGI was good. The story was just simply flat and the music was atrocious.
Perry Mason (2020)
HBO spent 74 million and its worth every nickel
HBO spent 74 million on this series. The production values are extraordinary. Every scene is a masterpiece of period design and costuming. The story is compelling and the acting is outstanding and the directing is superb. When award season comes I hope that it sweeps them all away.
The Old Guard (2020)
Generic poorly written script
I'm 3/4 of the way through the movie And I'm thinking about turning it off.
The City of Your Final Destination (2009)
Slow
This feels like an adaptation to a novel. It's just too slow and the acting and script amateurish. Even with Fine character actors such as world Lenny and Anthony Perkins.
I See You (2019)
Pretentious Directing and Music
I could not get through it. The music was so annoying and the direction so obvious it distracted from the story.
Virgin River (2019)
Pretty generic feel good movie about a small town
After four episodes I got bored. The plot doesn't move along fast enough and the characters all seem to be singing the same song
Self/less (2015)
Very entertaining
Somewhat predictable be very entertaining psychological an action film
Murder Mystery (2019)
Sandler and Anniston Deserve each other
OMG. This is so lame. Very few laughs. Bad acting. Couldn't wait for it to end. Fast forwarded much of it.
Harold and Lillian: A Hollywood Love Story (2015)
Learned something now about making movies
Wonderful love story about decent highly professional people. Very much worth watching.
After Life (2019)
Loved it
Heartfelt funny story of transtion from grief to beyond.
War Machine (2017)
Great movie
The other reviews don't get it. It is not a comedy. It is a satire based on the the truth. The scene with the German politician Tilda Swindon was worth watching the movie. The whole movie is a testament to the ridiculousness of our being in Afghanistan after we kicked Al Qaeda out. Pitt was over the top, which I liked, particularly showing the general's ambition. McChrystal is doing quite well right now actually.
