Griselda (2024)
2/10
Horrible
3 February 2024
Griselda was such an absolute waste of time. The only interesting thing about the show was that some of things they showed the audience actually happened. Somehow they managed to make Sofia look ugly and stupid. I am no fan of smoking in films but has she never done it before because she looks like an idiot when she does it on film. The director managed to take the same character from modern family, remove the humor and acting and made her the star of the show. It was the worst acting I've seen in years. I kept hoping for the end but it just seemed to be further and further away. Do not waste your time with this trash of a show.

Role Play (2024)

Kaley deserves much better
21 January 2024
Are you serious - did you watch this before you put it out for public viewing because this movie was so bad that it made me feel ashamed for all parties involved in it. Kaley has been an entertainment darling for years and you put her in the pile of dung. I like the guy who played her husband but he was so wrong for this part and the two did not act well together. The script was horrible and the acting, including Kaley was horrible. This was phoned in. Whoever wrote this would have done well to copy some of the other motifs from other great assassin films. Horrible horrible horrible. Do not watch this trash - sorry Kaley.

The Marvels (2023)

Horrible Horrible Horrible
12 November 2023
How many times will Hollywood just slap a film together and shoot it out to fans who hope beyond hope that the film will be worth watching? The Marcels prove that the answer is - ONCE MORE. The people of Hollywood and whoever is responsible for watching and then putting this movie out should be fired from their positions. Start with the obvious: poor acting from the lady that plus Captain Marvel, poor acting from the child playing one of the other characters and also poor acting from the other leading lady. Next, plot. Was there one? Did it flow? Did it make sense? NO,NO,NO. I will never attend another superhero film again and will find it quite difficult to attend any film produced by Hollywood since it has been quite awhile since Hollywood has put out anything worth watching. Luckily we still have foreign films from India and other places. This is my call to Hollywood to change the cookie cutters and try to release some films with originality.

Is Hollywood serious
27 June 2023
You people are playing a horrible trick on the viewing public. Jennifer Lawrence is a fair actress but this movie and her role in it was just horrible. I am shocked that she watched this film and allowed it to be released and might want to consider a brassiere in future movies. The kid that played the boy man was boring and lacked any amount of acting. The movie itself was forced and just standard fair by some mediocre writers. And that is mediocre at best. Even they must have watched that film and thought - "omg" what the holy heck did we just put on film. It would have been so much better if they had used a better male actor and a female actress who didn't have to over act to try to prove that they being in Hollywood and based on her performance I would say - jennifer does not belong there any longer and is just coasting on past roles. I say it is time for Hollywood to reinvent itself. Movie stank badly.

Should have stopped at 2
3 April 2023
Watching John Wick 4 makes me realize just how bad of an actor Keanu Reeves is. Many apologies because he is one of my favorite people in movies. Notice I didn't say actor in movies as I think that after about 20-30 movies we can all honestly say that his skills have not improved nor have they changed. Having said that I will say that he is enjoyable to watch in movies like this even though I had to suspend my disbelief of my suspension of disbelief on multiple occasions. The story was not very interesting, the bad guy didn't seem very bad nor was I feeling like any of the action scenes made any sense - not that any movies really do. But I wonder just how many times a person needs to place a mag in a loaded weapon and then open the chamber to see if there is a round in the chamber. That was minor because I don't want to spoil alert anyone. I will say this however that if a spin-off is made or another John Wick is made I can honestly say I will not pay any money to watch either. Is Pirate Bay still around?

Lots and lots of CGI
20 February 2023
And lots and lots of bad acting. Someone must have told the actors to behave what you think a comic book character behaves like in real life and then they tried to do that although they would have been better than what was put on screen. These people are paid millions of dollars to make good movies and they are paid more than they deserve because they have to take lip off a dummy like me. I long for the days when Superman was done with wires and looked fake versus what we get today - CGI that looks fake. Hey I know let's put some colors here and a swirl there, it will be beautiful - well, it wasn't. Then we get a story that is absolutely written by a person in night school, you know the ones - they say nuuuunh unnnh when you call them stupid. Well, this story was stupid. Nuuuuuunh unnnh.

He got me again
11 February 2023
I long for the days when actor and directors were not given seventh eighth and ninth chances to make bad movies. M - I don't know you personally but if I were your friend I would say that your movie was well filmed, nicely acted but lacked any reasonable amount of excitement and I felt like I could fall asleep and wake up and not miss anything. Also, and I don't recall M being this but that movie was so cliche that I felt the writing and script was done very poorly. Loved all the actors and was curious as to the reason why M needed to be in the script because I feel that this was a recent movie school graduate attempt at making a film. Well filmed but was boring and did not hold my attention. M = might not want to waste your movie going time and money to see this film.

What is the point
25 December 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Can't understand if this Sheridan fellow wants me to like the Dutton or hate them. They do not have any redeeming qualities other than the selfish desire to keep what they have acquired over time. Keep it or at the very least not allow others to have it. They love the view so much that they are willing to kill to keep it and are unwilling to allow others to gaze upon it. And while I do like Spencer - I just watched the episode where he tosses a master swordsman overboard after he himself having never held one disarmed the master twice and then was able duck away from a pistol being wielded by the very same master swordsman. This seems like some very convenient writing on someone's part and I will say that my fervent desire is that there is an end to this series so that I don't have to watch it with the hope on my heart that I get to see all those idiots die. Please Sheridan - write reality just a little better.

Black Adam (2022)

Don't fall for the hype
21 October 2022
Where to begin? This movie is a big old nope. These comic book movies just get more and more comical and this one is no different. The Rock still cannot act and all attempts at it are stilted and wasteful of camera space. Don't pretend like this person can act - it is never going to be believed. Next - does every scene have to be accompanied by an orchestra - was a whole bunch of really bad music. The other super heroes were alright but it just didn't seem to be a good fit. And finally, when is CGI just way over the top because this was as close as it gets. Does CGI ever get to the point where film creators just use it to create great scenes as opposed to creating a scene that appears unbelievable while being unbelievable?

Is this for real
9 July 2022
I am in the theater right at this moment and I can't help but wonder who told the actors to act as corny as possible. This is beyond a doubt one of the worst superhero movies I have ever seen. You will instantly regret paying good money to see it. Remember when Matt Damon made the movie funny because he over acted well now he is the least corny person in this film and all other actors are grand over caricatures of their characters. This is horrible, I have my wife's sweater and the only reason I can't stay soundly asleep is because the horrible noise which accompanies the horrible cgi, wakes me up all over again. Christian Bale forgot how to act, Natalie Portman, seriously and Chris - you were horrible. Save your money.

Just Plain Old Boring
17 May 2022
Actors - boring, Story - boring, Action - fake and boring. Let me apologize firstly since I have been such a great fan of comic books my whole life. But, it seems to me that whoever is making these movies just seems to think that they have the recipe for a profit (they do) and this recipe should not change by to much. Lots of CGI, lots of bad acting, lots or bad jokes and just another remake of what seems to be the same movie, the same movie, the same movie - oops, i got stuck in a loop - much like the movie industry. I mean how many Wolverines is to many? How many Dead Pools, and please don't get me started on Aquaman - what a waste. Well, it pains me to say this but I am looking for to seeing a movie without any CGI and with actors that can act. I mean seriously, Lisa Bonnets husband was bad in Game of Thrones, he aint getting any better, nor are the stories. I am done with these movies.

Kinda Slow
17 March 2022
I love westerns but as far as westerns go, this one is really quite slow - and the girl narrating is so stinking irritating - could her accent be anymore contrived and fake sounding? Never been a more irritating character than that blonde girl.

Best Batman Movie of All
16 March 2022
This was in my mind the best Batman movie ever made. Wasn't overly impressed with any of the actors but the movie was phenomenal. Great story and well made.

Just awful really truly bad and boring
13 November 2021
How would I - no, why would I want to review a movie so bad that I want to give it zero stars but don't for fear that zero stars would be removed by IMDb as an anomaly. I want to explain to you how I was formulating a review in the negative within moments of the movie first starting. I won't spoil because there truly is nothing to spoil - standard god movie where indestructible beings are somehow made to look vulnerable. Whatever. This is just another bad movie in what I am sure will be a ling line of poorly written, poorly acted, poorly directed, and poorly cgi manufactured crap. Do not waste a penny nor a farthing on this complete waste of time. Unexciting and unimaginable at every moment and just another reason for a movie studio to attempt to get your money. Don't go.

Judy Justice (2021– )

Not a fan any longer
1 November 2021
Same great Judge Judy however - I prefer the old plaintiff and cannot sit here and watch her question some female in chambers. I understand the premise of the show is the same but probably needed to change somewhat to avoid a lawsuit but that was ridiculous and I changed the the channel as soon as the conversation began. Sorry Judge Judy, it's called the Judge Judy show - I don't need nor want to hear the voice or opinion of anyone besides you and the defendants. Goodbye old friend - we shan't meet again.

Sensationalizing Horrible Behavior and People
4 July 2021
Let me start by saying that I do love the show so my rating of five saddens me because I like it so much. The reason for a rating of five is because networks like Bravo determine that it is more important to our people on the boat that bring more drama to the story as opposed to just allowing a story to develop organically. In particular, I refer to the person named Malia and the drama she caused when she dated two people on a boat at the same time. To begin, this behavior is abhorrent and next, it is a cheap way to develops the show before the show has had a chance to develop. She is a horrible person and I would prefer not watching a person who represents such horrible behavior on the show. I would not watch this show again if she is on it.

Horrible movie, just horrible
28 December 2020
Honestly, did anyone watch this before it was released? Without question, this movie failed on so many levels tgst I do not know where to begin. Setting was terrible, camera action was professionally done but not particularly catching my eye. Script was horrible. Acting was horrendous. And why do super hero powers become more enhanced and far more spectacular with each movie? All of these things taken together and this movie was easily one of the most irritating movies I have seen in quite a long time. My fervent hope is that no one goes to see it so I don't have to bare witness to this tripe ever again. Which is unfortunate as I am a big fan of comics and super heroes so I will probably watch the next one in which I am certain that the bad guy or girl will not be very bad or even scary but Wonder Woman's powers will have grown exponentially. It feels like the producers feel that the more powerful a super hero is, the more money they will make at the box office. Bottom line is, I do not recommend this movie even if it is free and beg the producers to never make another one using the current model. Horrible movie, just horrible.

Creepy
17 February 2020
Wow, I never thought of Mr. Rogers as a creep but after watching Tom Hanks trying to play him, I couldn't help but think that this was the creepiest portrayal of a person in our past by an actor as acclaimed as Tom Hanks. I grew up with Mr. Rogers and the portrayal I watched was so powerfully unlike the real Mr. Rogers that I had to rethink the thoughts and memories I had of the real Mr. Rogers. In fact, in writing these comments, the only reason I refrain from cursing and shouting my feelings is that I was taught some positive emotional traits by the very same man that Tom Hanks did such a poor job of bringing back into our lives. The movie was a non starter and should not have been made in such a horrible way. Shame on Hollywood for taking something and somebody so lovely and attempting to take dramatic freedoms with reality. Do not pay to watch this.

Smoking
5 May 2019
I signed onto this site for only one reason: to tell the female lead that I want her to stop smoking in the show. She becomes, with a cigarette in her mouth, the ugliest human on the earth. Has no one noticed that she puckers up her lips and just looks ridiculous. Not a great fan of smoking, but sometimes, a woman can look totally sexy by smoking, even though it stinks and tastes like a crap sandwich - well she is not one of those. Other than that, the show is awesome and I highly recommend it.

Just another superhero movie
29 April 2019
SO many reasons to love this movies but so many more to just completely hate it. I mean, how many times can you just do whatever you like in a movie and have to explain it in the movie that it is okay because of this reason. What a joke. Also, the movie felt like a mixture of ten percent of ten different movies mixed into one and was just not fun to try to follow. In fact, after the most boring first hour in moviedom history, the movie just started to do stuff that felt like it was filmed before the story was even written or a script in hand. And please dont get me started on the Hulk, I wont spoil anything but will say that it was not a pleasure watching him become the weakest Avenger. This movie should have been cut down to about two hours - it would have still blown chunks but at least it wouldnt have been a sleepy third hour. The movie makes me wish that movies offered satisfaction guarantees and returns. I wouldnt have returned any of the snacks but I would have asked for my ticket money back. It stank. And finally, the biggest let down was the acting - these people get paid loads of money and their acting is stilted and boring. Well, enough - I must be wrong as it is making so much money. Sorry, don't see it.

Big let down
9 March 2019
Other than the usual cgi over the top - the two actors Samuel and Brie are just unbelievably bad actors. When she runs, it looks really weird and her physical presence is extremely unpleasant. When Jackson gets to fight some guy or guys he looks like he has never thrown a punch before in his life and it is just weird and awkward and stiff and boring. Jude Law is awesome as usual. But overall, I must say, it reminded me of the green lantern - big letdown. Do not spend 100 dollars to go see this movie you will regret it.

Not Fresh
8 July 2017
Where to begin? I guess we could start with the kid who plays Spiderman - that kid can not act and is about as exciting as dirt. In fact, I found his very presence to be irritating and it made me long for Toby of all things. Then, the bad guy looked and shared some of the same traits of another bad guy with the initials green goblin only without any super power. The cgi was so bad as to make me long for the first spiderman and it started from the very beginning when be jumped over a fence - it looked terribly fake. And tony stark - when can we get a fresh actor instead of using the same old boring ones they always use. And bring the actress back for two minutes to play pepper or whatever her name is - what a ripoff of just slapping actors in place who are only still famous because they were in ironman. This took six script writers? Hollywood, you are a joke. I want my money back and wouldn't even bother stealing this movie from the pirate bay. Stay away.

Wonder Woman (2017)

Just Okay
9 June 2017
I hate to say this but I am sitting in the movie as I wrote this and hoping beyond hope that the second half gets exciting. Chris Pine is outstanding as he usually is when he is the support. Gal Gadot is an extraordinary actress but her accent is slightly irritating but made up for by the fact that she is perhaps the most beautiful woman I have ever seen on screen. But back to the movie, it is just slightly boring. Just another run of the mill super hero recipe that gets more boring after each passing. I am angry with myself for not watching it from the download I made of it from the Pirate Bay but I was craving coke and popcorn. I am sorry but I refuse to be a party to these movie studios continuing to just roll stuff out because they have a captive audience. I will watch justice league from a mobile device for free and close that my anger is probably still high after watching that jack afflict defeat superman. Shame on these movie makers.

The Circle (I) (2017)
2/10
Horrible - just plain horrible - everything
29 April 2017
Looking back, I realized I gave this film 2 stars out of ten but rethought the issue and now think it barely deserves a rating of 1. Did anyone watch this film before they released it? The plot was ridiculously over the top and the acting by all parties was horrendous. Tom Hanks is horribly past his prime and his skills have subsided markedly. He didn't bring anything to the screen other than a campy over the top vision of what he thought steve jobs acted like when he was alive and a maniacal tyrant. The girl who was cute as Hermione is no longer cute and also acted in such a campy, this is how I think a high school girl with a crush on her teacher acts manner that it made the movie just creep along at a snails pace. And somehow they managed to take the guy from star wars and just make him into the most boring actor on the face of the planet. And please, don't make me mention that patton oswalt fellow - he is not even worth a mention. Did they run out of real actors? And I wont even begin to speak to you in regards the plot - it was so cliché that you could sleep through 3/4 of the film, wake up and not misunderstand what is going on in the film. In fact, I wish that is what I had done. Do not go to see this film, do not rent it from a redbox. In fact, don't even download a version of it from the pirate bay as this will be time wasted that you will wish you could somehow get it back.

Take the Money and Run
28 January 2017
Warning: Spoilers
There are so many places this episode went wrong. To begin, the cinematography was so dark that I couldn't make out faces or actions. Next, the script or story or lack thereof was just horrible. My dog could accidentally type a story better than that one. Next was the acting or lack thereof which is sad for me to say because I really like Milla Jovovich. But, in the end you have to question the skills of actors whose only roles for the last 10 years have been sequels or remakes of the exact same film. I do not want to be a spoiler but this film was no different than the ones before it and that is sad. The director and script writer are the same person but the producers would have been better served by getting someone with a better ability to write and film action. But in the end the thing that really bothered me was the total darkness of the film. I couldn't see anything and that was really a bother. Please do not make another film in this evil chain of bad films. I will never see another one of these films and I highly recommend to anyone reading this that they do not waste their money like I and the three other people in the opening did.
