My Movie Rating System:
10: Masterpiece. My All-Time favorites.
9: Excellent. Just a notch below the best in my opinion.
8: Great.
7: Very Good. Entertaining with maybe a few holes in the story that can be overlooked.
6: Good. Enjoyable flick that can have you scratching your head at times, but fun enough to still be somewhat entertained.
5. Average. Decent acting with various unexplained plot holes or just a goofy story that is ok to watch to kill time.
4. Below Average. Ugh. Why did I watch this?
3. Boring. You spend more time checking your phone than watching the actual movie.
2. Trash. Monkeys could produce a better premise.
1. The Worst Movie I've Ever Watched.

No Time to Die (2021)
Stunning ending that kills the entire Daniel Craig timeline
I was born in late 1975 and I have been watching Bond movies since I was probably seven or eight years old. I used to watch every movie shown during the 13 Days of 007- every time that promo was run by TBS. My first Bond movie in theater was Timothy Dalton's License to Kill. I have never missed a Bond movie premiere since.
In this world of ours, Bond movies allow me to go away for a few hours, enjoying the adventures of 007, whether it be Sir Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Dalton, Pierce Brosnan, or Daniel Craig. It's a young man's dream to be that suave, confident, and dangerous at the same time. To drive all the fast cars, get the beautiful women, and kill all of the bad guys in style.
The formula has worked since 1963.
But today's world has witnessed cancel culture and woke-ism destroy everything in it's past. Wanting 5'1, 90 lb women beat men up five times her size, and for men to be feminized and stripped of acting and thinking like a real man would.
Bond is rough. He is a man that gets the job done for Queen and Country. He lives on the edge as any spy would being in that business. Bond isn't meant to be a choir boy.
I have loved all of the Craig movies, and for the most part, was enjoying this movie, even tho the main villain was bland. Maybe the softest ever in a Bond movie.
But to watch nearly 60 years of 007 burned to the ground with the death of Felix Leiter, Blofeld, AND James Bond himself was so incredibly idiotic, it took me nearly 24 later to clear my mind and write a review here.
Every time I've left a 007 movie at its premier at the movies I've felt a little like Bond himself on the drive home. Maybe breaking a traffic law or five. I always left filled with adrenaline pumping and excited wondering what the next movie would bring.
Last night I walked out emotionless, with an empty feeling in the pit of my stomach.
Perhaps the next movie we will find out the 007 defied the odds and wasn't killed by some miracle. I could never imagine what Ian Fleming would have thought witnessing that ending. I think he would be sicker than I felt.
If the next Bond is turned into a woman, or is bi, or some other woke incarnation it will be the end of me watching this great franchise.
You want to bring wokeness and other garbage to the big screen, create your own character from scratch.
Leave James Bond as who he is meant to be.
Death Wish (2018)
Liberals hate it... that's why I love it!
Can't help but laugh at some of the so called "reviews" by these film critics, the majority of them being bleeding heart liberals who have the nerve to project the bad guys as victims instead of the lowlifes they are.
Anything to promote the whole SJW agenda.
No, this film isn't as great as the original as you know the story to begin with, but it comes close in making an updated version that fits today's troubled times.
Libs tend to think more laws or simply taking away guns will end gun violence or criminal activities, but what they can never seem to get through their thick skulls is that criminals are CRIMINALS and they don't follow laws in the first place, no matter how many more laws they dream up.
This is America and we have a RIGHT, that "Shall not be infringed upon" to Bear Arms and protect both ourselves and our families from those who wish to do is harm.
Both the original and this remake hammer the theme home that it's better to have a gun and NOT need to use it rather than not having a gun and NEEDING one when your life is on the line.
World's Wildest Police Videos (1998)
Stop with the freaking FAKE SOUND EFFECTS!
I enjoy watching reality police videos from time to time, and this show is decent to watch with the chases, but for the love of God, can they stop with the over the top fake assed sound effects? I mean, car tires DO NOT SQUEAL NONSTOP, ESPECIALLY ON GRAVEL!!! How dumb do the producers think people are? I understand that George Carlin once said, Think how stupid the average person is, then realize that half of them are stupider than that, but c'mon, enough with the tires already! Also, Mr. so called "Sheriff", he is very annoying and so egotistical, that I often mute the broadcast while watching. Cops do a great job, but they are not Gods and they are not perfect as the "Sheriff" always portrays them. Watching a police car pit maneuver a speeding car that causes a major accident to another innocent driver should be a crime committed by the officer, not the speeder.
The Adventures of Ford Fairlane (1990)
Why so serious? It's OK to laugh!!
Alright. I know the acting isn't 5 star quality, but really, NOT EVERY FREAKING movie is meant to be Gone With the Wind.
Sometimes you have to just have some fun, enjoy a night of laughter, and the enjoy the movie for what it is: Nutty! I'm beyond tired of the PC world we live in today. It's OK to laugh sometimes.
I love the dialog in the movie, as well as the one-liners made by Dice. There's plenty of star quality in the movie with Priscilla Pressley, Ed O'Neil, Wayne Newton, Robert Englund, and Lauren Holly, so lets stop acting like the movie was filled with off the street actors. They all knew they were in a fun movie together, and all had fun being in it.
So, if you are someone who likes to laugh at silly jokes, one liners, and enjoy crude humor, then this is a movie for you.
