Stormy (2024)
9/10
Oh Stephanie...You believed him... SMH
19 March 2024
While I will admit I didn't have a lot of sympathy for her going into the movie it changed my outlook on her and the... Shall we call it short affair?. For the most part when she spoke about him promising you an appearance in a season of The Apprentice she should have known it was a lie. Trump had a long history of screwing people he made promises to way before she met him. Just a quick Google search would have found her all the subcontractors he cheated while building the Atlantic City casino's... Not to mention the hundreds thrown out of work when they went bust (who ever heard of a casino losing money SMH)... But after watching the whole movie I was sorry for what she had to give up... I can't imagine what it felt like to have to give up custody of your daughter just to keep her safe and keep her from being assaulted by camera's where ever she went. Yes this documentary, which I might add was well shot, showed she made some bad choices (early on and some later) but I applaud her strength in telling her story at all.. She was in the right, but It took bravery to go through what she did and is doing.. Stay strong lady, You're fighting the good fight.

Star Trek: Picard (2020–2023)
9/10
Great reboot of the francise
26 March 2023
I see a few people didn't care for the new Picard.... I think they did a great job. Love the technology and most of all loved seeing the old crew together again. I'm up to the 6th episode of the third series and i've loved the all. On an individual rating I give season one 8 stars,.. season two gets seven stars and season three gets ten stars with me wishing I could give more.... I don't have much more to say except WELL DONE!! Seeing Jean Luc, Riker, Geordi, Data Worf Chrusher, Seven, Ro Q, (who an I leaving out) has been wonderful. Congatulations to the producers, the writers, the directors and most of all the actors who came back to give us a last look at the 24th century... \

Counterpart (2017–2019)
9/10
I agree with the reviewr who asked why they cancelled this show
26 January 2023
Very interesting show Very interesting concept. The acting is great as is the directing and story writing.. I don't know why they cancelled this when there we're so many others that didn't desetve to stay The show makes you think a little while enjoyng it.. This show had so many roads to trave; in its story direction but alas we'll never get to see them. I would highly recomend watching the 20 episodes that they did make... Maybe someday they add more with (maybe with some of the same actors) and other storylines... That's all I have to write except a note to amazon and the producers of the show... you suck! Haha.

Devil's Due (2014)
4/10
Could've been very good
17 December 2022
Had a lot of hope for this movie. I liked the actors and they did well. Miller and Golford both played their parts excellent. Sam Anderson always plays whatever part he gets very well did great too.... I guess I'm just disappointed at the POV filming. POV just doen't add anything to a movie. I really believe this would have been a great movie otherwise but this Rosemary's Baby wannabe just doesn't cut it The story was great but whoever decide to film it this way made a huge mistake. STOP trying to film this way. It only worked in maybe Paranormal Activity 1 and 2.... That's it... Same goes for found footage movies. It worked in Blair Witch and that was all for that genre.

Godless (2017)
9/10
Truly wish this wasn't a limited series
2 July 2022
Like liked everything about this. The actors, the writers, the direction. The storyline was great. If you liked HBO's Deadwook and Paramount's 1883, this is for you. Highly recommend.

It COULD have been good...
16 June 2022
I thought it started out alright but then start wandering all over the place. The writing is terrible. The plot srifts way too much. Too much story telling. The flashbacks help put HER into perspective. The rest of the characters (bad guys) were a joke. Also it was too PG for what she was supposed to be and what she was doing.... The idea of this spy "thiller" could have been so much better.

Ozark (2017–2022)
10/10
What a Great Show!
30 April 2022
Excellent writing, Directing editing.... Jason Bateman, Phenomenal. Laura Linney, good as ever. Julie Garner, the girl from the Bronx. I can't see anyone doing that character better....accent and actions... You'll go places. I probably wouldn't have started watching if we weren't quarantined because I never heard of it but glad I got to see it.

I'm a horror fan

This was one of the best horror movies I never heard of.. Great cast. Great story, good back ground, good direction and the ending, what can I say... I would watch this again.

Mis-titled
27 March 2022
I wouldn't have put a Paranormal Activity brand on this and just titled it "Next of Kin"... Never been a fan of POV shot movies, always thought it takes away from something that a good cinematographer could've added to. But this ones not too bad... The story is good. The actors are good. There are some scary moments in it... I gave it 7...

What was Esterhazy thinking???
5 March 2022
A remake should at least try to be as good as the original (though that hardly ever happens), But this was terrible. Not scary, More #metoo than Boo! Some good gore, but that's it. The direction was bad. The women were unmemorable. Just doesn't work. I'd advise studios not to give this women any more money.

I agree with reviewer Ourilk
24 December 2021
Movie is a great prewar flick.. Mixes some documentary footage in with a great storyline and great acting. Using the word propaganda to describe the film does it a disservice as it truly shows how so many were taken in BY propaganda. Can't believe Joan Bennett got bad reviews for her acting in this. I thought she was great.

Jolt (2021)
7/10
I liked it
13 October 2021
Kate Beckinsale, Bobby Cannavale, Stanley Tucci, David Bradley and the rest were all great in their parts. Story was good as was the action. The only complaint I would possibly have is them trying to pass whatever city that was as NYC... Completely ridiculous to anyone at all familiar with NYC's skyline.

Ghosts (2021– )
9/10
I like it
8 October 2021
Watching the premiere and I love it. Very funny, I hope they can keep it going. I also watched the Brits version.....I like these American ghosts characters better. Like Shameless and All in the family we took a British sitcom and made it better......So far anyway, hope it lasts..... Added at episode 7: This show should be an hour!

Neo Noir period piece
28 July 2021
I liked it... a lot! Cheadle and Del Toro were great as were Fraser, Liotta ,Hamm and the rest of the cast. The story full of back stabbing and just good to watch unfold. I'll see it again...

Revenge (II) (2017)
3/10
Really?
1 July 2021
This movie is just a way less believable version of I Spit on Your Grave. No one can bleed that much and live, and no one can "fix" their wounds like that. (btw, the printing on the label should have been reversed)... Way too many technical F-ups (she hits him at 300+feet with a shotgun slug?etc, smh) I gave it 3 stars only because the actress was good and the cinematography was good...... some of the action was good as well.... it was almost interesting.

I never really got creeped out at a movie until this one
8 June 2021
This was actually the first one of the series I saw.... And was HOOKED. And having had seen them all now this is my favorite. Don't get me wrong, they're all good, some better than others, but this is GREAT! The effects, the story, the writing, the directing and especially the actors all were fantastic... MY first and only 10/10 rating on IMDb.

Excellent horror flick
8 June 2021
I don't understand the low score reviews. This was an excellent horror movie. It was a good story. It was shot well and Linda Cardellini and Raymond Cruz were great acting in their parts. My only disappointment was I could have done w/o the little girl and her toy cliche and I wish the small parts that Ray Cruz spoke in Spanish (only a couple of times) were subtitled in English. Other than that, this goes in my top three in the Conjuring Universe though actually if you remove Fr. Perez it would lose any connection to it lol. But even then it would be a great horror movie as a stand alone.... (might have done better than it did in the box office if they'd titled it The Weeping Woman, who knows)

Travelers (2016–2018)
7/10
Excellent, wish there were more
18 May 2021
Just watched the first season plus two of the second and I have to say it's a great show. Really well written and every one of the the main cast couldn't play each of their parts any better and let me add Jennifer Spence and Patrick Gilmore to that... You did excellent guys.... I'm sorry there's only three seasons, wish there were more.

I Care a Lot (2020)
8/10
Almost Noir-ish
24 February 2021
I like this film... A LOT. Excellent crime thriller. Well written well acted and well directed. I titled the review as "Noir-ish" only because it doesn't have the trade mark Noir lighting.. If you like film Noir or crime movies 40's and 50's in general you WILL like it. I see a lot of the negative reviews because the protagonist is such a rotten low life., Relax! It's just a movie and a good one.

Doctor Who: The Timeless Children (2020)
Season 12, Episode 10
1/10
Are you kidding with this?
2 January 2021
I've been watching since the Baker years and have seen the older ones and I have to ask..... Is ANYONE from the old show or the first ten years of the revival left? If there is and you have any pull PLEASE get the writers and producers of this piece of garbage FIRED!! Bad enough the companions weren't good, I liked Jodie but she was iffy as the doctor, and the writing sucked. But now you've undone 60 years of lore. Better think of something to save the show and put things back or you'll lose every viewer that ever watched...(a bad dream installed by the master or something,...anything) Personally I'll give the 3 series of the newest doctor 2 episodes to straighten this out before I call it quits for good..... But I'd advise whoever is in charge to fire Chibnall and never let him near the doctor again. Two years of garbage ending with the absolute worst episode ever.... pps... STOP SCREWING WITH THE TARDIS and put it back to more of what it was SMH
