Saint X (2023)
I think reading the book makes the show more enjoyable
I read the book first, the book was a little slow
Paced as well and the ending was ok(same as the show in my opinion )but I think they advertised it too much as a who done it, when really it's completely character driven. I think not reading the book makes you miss out on that because you don't get to hear the different narratives from different characters. The book make me crave more about the characters. It also narrates a lot of different point of views and when narrating Allison you understand what they are trying to do with her character . I went in with very low expectations but ended up enjoying a lot. I think it was adapted well and I like what they added to make it better and more dramatic .I think the combo of the book and show make for good entertainment. And I can understand why someone who didn't read it would dislike. I recommend reading the book and then watching.
Wreck (2022)
This was fun
I really enjoyed this, it definitely could have added a little more humor but I like what humor there was. Even with some times rolling my eyes , I was pretty hooked on the mystery. It's also easy watching and goes by quick. I really liked the campiness but I feel they could have leaned in a bit more. Particularly with the characters.
This show has so much more potential but it took too long to get to know the characters and it wasn't until the last episode that I felt invested in the characters , but now I feel invested ! So I really hope there's a second season because I think if don't right it could be awesome.
History of the World: Part II (2023)
I loved it and so happy to have some fun laughs
I am pretty picky about sketch shows but do love them and also am aware that even the best ones will have hits and miss. This one starts off a little weak and I thought it will just be another productions with lots of great comedians having small parts phoning it in.
Once it got going I liked it more and laughing more with each episode , they revisit each sketch , keeping the plot going and I feel did it well . Of course plenty of silliness but thought there was lots of great jokes and the awesome comedians in it actually have lots of parts and play them with effort. I laughed hard a lot. If you're not too snobby about humor and like somewhat dark humor about some darker times in history you might like it.
Hocus Pocus 2 (2022)
Gave me more then I hoped for
This is my first review ever , because I just couldn't believe how low some of the reviews were. I mean what did these people expect. I understand maybe not going above 5/6 but these people giving it 1/2 ??? Seems they had extremely high unrealistic expectations !! One review expecting them to talk about binx ,max ,and Dani , I mean what even would be the point of that we already knew they weren't in the movie. I'm impressed all three witches were original actors. And yea it was fan service but I feel it was very good fan service ! I went in with very very low expectations, because yes it's a Disney sequel and I'm not gonna let it "ruin the original" like others say. And I was pleasantly surprised! It was fun and I feel it did have a heartwarming charm too it. I feel like the people with ratings below 5 must be the type that you can never please.
