The Consultant (2023)
I liked it, although...
...I don't really know why. The show could also be called "weirder stuff" (credit to Rick and Morty), because that's what happens, all the time, weird stuff. Without any doubt Waltz performance is intriguing as always and I assume the main reason why I binge watched it. But I have to say that there is scenes where you think "what in the actual F just happened?" and "WHY THOUGH?!". I don't wanna spoil, so I just state it this way: you have to accept that some of the things that happen on the show keep unexplained and are odd/strange. If you're okay with that, go for it. If you want logical explanations for everything, don't watch...
Overall, the actors all do a great job, the plot keeps you wanna keep on watching. The show's atmosphere is somehow mystic, funny here and there with very dark, odd humor, but it's not a comedy. I wouldn't be able to put it in a specific genre.
It's not gonna be on my favorite shows of all time, but it's good. I'd given it a 6,5. Since that's not possible, I rounded up to 7.
Better Call Saul (2015)
Just wow.
Just finished watching and I'm so impressed by the actors, writers, cinematography, really everything of this show.
It's one of those shows you'll carry around with you for quite some time and that leaves a kind of feeling.
Breaking Bad was, not surprisingly, my all time favorite series, but I have to say, this even, although it is a little slower paced (which is not a bad thing), is at least as great and outstanding. Worth watching every second of it.
I just can recommend it to anybody, there is not one flaw to find and it is really just brilliant on any level and in any kind of way possible.
Don't Look Up (2021)
Wow.
Really great satire, almost frustratingly close to reality.
One of those movies that will keep me occupied for a while. Enjoyed every second. Was getting upset throughout the movie about the stupidity of some characters, the parallels to real life characters can't be denied.
