Invasion: Old Friends, New Frontiers (2023)
Awful lot of staring
This show doesn"t go anywhere. Characters constantly make the dumbest decisions, absolutely negating any rationality. Yes, it is filled with a load of emotions, as if those were the best advises, but instad you see a bunch of people statting each other, while some slow paced tune is playing on strings.
Leaders seem to be absolutely irrational, not a single experienced advisor, researcher or anybody with at least a little bit of grey hair is around, instead some barely twenty year old girls and boys stare at the chirping computer screens, sometimes freneticially.typing on a keyboard next to a screen without any possible text input, and then starring into the camera with their mouths open.
And then the military. Seemingly they have some secret weapons, what the astronaut-suited special ops team carries around, but somehow we never see those developed/tested in the movie. Are those any good? If so, why is everyone just shooting presumably useless firearms without any visible effect at the hunter-killers?
Why are they hauling armed intruders around into combat, instead of keeping them locked up?
The so called madame president has literally no options available, every element in the masterplan depends on a scared teenage introvert with sleeping issues, and when he suggests to make change something in the operation - something by magnitudes less crazy than any other step in the plan - she singlehandedly overrules him. All the other nonsense is ok, but if the poor boy wants to have somebody with actual experience he happens to trust around is an unacceptable risk.
People throw garden parties in the shadow of a giant mushroom shaped mothership, yet we have to wait 8 additional epizodes to find out that the alien portals all lead to the mothership. I mean,, who could've thought that?!
In this show virtually anything can happen at any random time, just to make the "plot" go forward. Watching it feels like being someone with gambling problem: yes i know, i did lose 1000 times in a row, but maybe this time it will be better.
Slipstream (2005)
arrrghhh, that hurts baaad
there are bad movies. slipstream happens to be a real bad one. the idea itself is cool. but that's it. really. bad script. bat acting. stupid characters. plot holes.
come on, the bank-robbers in the bus start to sing? i just don't believe this is real. i feel i've just lost another 80 minutes precious time.
the explanation, which characters can travel back in time, and what will remain the same (clothes, money, but not the bullets) is a joke. probably the best part is, when the time-travel-ipod-like-gadget gets hooked on via USB to a laptop, because it's screen broke. you can probably think, that this movie is a spoof of its own. avoid this one.
go and watch "the butterfly effect".
