The Terminal List (2022– )
9/10
Excellent ignore the ugly haters
13 July 2022
What a show intriguing and keeps you on the edge of your seat, mix of 24 and Homeland absolutely reveting stuff from Star Lord.

Love the procedural aspect too. Ignore the apparently professional critics they can't find their ass from elbow.

Jaime Lannister
5 April 2022
Nice movie a bid moody but acted well, surprised Jaime has grown a hand, wonders of CGI.

Give it a bash, nice dogs and snow a tale of survival and how to increase your word count to 150 otherwise you can't submit it.

Mr Jackson stellar performance
14 March 2022
Wow what a display of acting - what a story that a lot of us can unfortunately resonate with.

Samuel L Jackson gives the performance of his life just wow.

This if what life is like for many people it actually happens and it's so hard.

The Privilege (2022 TV Movie)
4/10
Worth a look if nothing else to watch...
9 February 2022
The Privilege wastes no time as within 10 minutes, there's blood, some violence, an evil creature and a death. The bold and horrifying opening is enough to capture your attention and build your curiosity to know more.

Overall, Netflix's latest German supernatural film doesn't pack any scares or screams due to a rushed plot and weak execution. It has enough bloodshed, gore, black magic and bad guys. But none of them is used in full potential to appreciate the interesting premise.

Nice goal
15 December 2021
It's 1984, and Fabie lives with his mother and father and two older siblings in a comfortably cluttered apartment, dreaming of the things most kids his age do: sex, soccer, freedom.

His parents are still crazy about each other, even if Saverio (Toni Servillo) can't stay faithful, much to the distress of Maria (Teresa Saponangelo). His affable brother, Marchino (Marlon Joubert) takes him along on acting auditions and sympathizes with his crush on their emotionally troubled aunt Patrizia (Luisa Ranieri), who looks like Venus on the half shell and whose naked sexuality turns even a family lunch into an erotic revelation.

Her penchant for defiant public nudity aside, Fabie and the furious, vulnerable Patrizia begin to form their own kind of tentative friendship. But even more than forbidden relatives, Fabie has a passion for European football, and the prospect that real-life Argentinian superstar Diego Maradona may join Naples' team is almost more excitement than he can stand. (The film's title comes from a legendary World Cup goal once scored by Maradona.) That, and his discovery that he wants to direct his own movies when he grows up, keep him anxiously afloat, until a sudden loss - which would seem like cruel screenwriting if it hadn't actually happened in Sorrentino's own life - upends everything.

There's more than a touch of magical realism in God, with its absurdist set pieces and saturated Technicolor tableaux; a fictionalized brush with Frederico Fellini at an audition feels less like a cameo than a visit from the movie's spirit guide, the benevolent blessing of a maestro. (Though his lone contribution on screen is a brusque dismissal of Marchino's acting prospects.)

The movie's tone shifts don't always sit easy; farce and calamity are strange bedfellows, and the episodic plot often doesn't so much connect the dots as let them scatter whimsically across the film's two-hour-plus runtime. There are more cohesive coming-of-age movies to be sure, and subtler ones. But God doesn't really try too hard to make it all make sense; it's just one boy's dolce vita, drenched in Mediterranean sun, hormones, and salt air.

Encounter (III) (2021)
3/10
Average movie annoying child
10 December 2021
The little boy is extremely annoying and really can't act. Not sure is he has a condition but the character doesn't appear to.

Ok movie and story line not Sci Fi though.

Snoopy in Space (2019–2021)
6/10
Snoopy doggy dog
12 November 2021
Snoopy in Space is a series about the iconic dog and his friends the Peanuts gang on a field trip to NASA. While there, Snoopy and Woodstock are tapped to be a part of an elite mission to the International Space Mission. The 8-minute episodes follow Snoopy, who through sneakiness and smarts, ends up going on an elite mission to the International Space Station as an astronaut. Back on Earth, the gang is involved in each mission; they share facts about NASA and space travel, educating young viewers in the process.

Positive messages emphasize teamwork, belief in oneself, and determination. The Peanuts gang are good role models for young kids, with smart and adventurous girls and kind and thoughtful boys. With no violence or language concerns, this show is a treat for Peanuts fans of any age.

Invasion (2021–2024)

Cure for insomnia
31 October 2021
Nothing significant or interesting happens for the episodes currently available and that's 4 of them.

The first episode is an extremely boring look into some people where we're supposed to feel something for them to help set up the rest of the storyline but they forgot to add a storyline.

Heart warming stories
5 May 2021
Very heartwarming stories of love and caring for each other as life throws things at you.

Just wish the dubbing and translations were better, I understood 3 languages from the different stories and they have used the wrong type of voice for the dubbing for each of the people that appear - it just doesn't suit and the translation really is terrible and doesn't convey exactly what they're saying, their conversations are actually much better and wittier which doesn't come across in English.

Jack Ryan (2018–2023)
8/10
Loved every episode
9 March 2021
Season one was brilliant and high octane from the very beginning, kept my attention with a great story line. Season two was just meh, average and it started turning into something I keep on in the background whilst doing something else, nowhere near as smart as S1.

Movie making at its best
14 February 2021
Bad reviews seem to be left by very thick people not able to appreciate decent movies or books. Cinematography, visuals, acting and script all top notch. Watch and appreciate, best not to read up too much on it before watching, very much enjoyed it.
