Untold: Crimes and Penalties (2021)
Cheering for the bad guy
I really enjoyed this show. I caught myself just smiling and cheering for the bad guys several times. I would have liked a bit more backstory on exactly how the garbage company was operating as a "mob," but overall I found this to be one of Netflix's more enjoyable documentaries.
Why Did You Kill Me? (2021)
Worst True Crime Doc on Netflix
What did I just watch? Why Did You Kill Me is the worst true crime show I've seen from Netflix. It was boring and lazy, and really left me wondering who signed off on this waste of time. The title and trailer make you think the interactions between killer and the girl on MySpace lead to some dramatic, smoking gun that solves the mystery. Nope. The show actually only gives a few minutes to the whole MySpace thing. They spend the rest of the time focusing on the methhead mom who is out for revenge. She admits that she was high when the shooting happened, she withheld information from the investigators, then she scared off the suspect. We only get a tiny blurb at the end of the show saying what finally happened to him. No smoking gun, not even a mention of physical evidence! It was all he-said-she-said between gang members and this crackhead family. After watching, I still have no idea how they got a conviction. And did they ever say how they proved/disproved which white expedition was involved?
The whole documentary was just lazy, confusing and boring. Don't waste your time.
The Midnight Sky (2020)
Excellent Movie for Naptime
If you need help falling asleep in the middle of the day, this is the movie for you. I actually squeezed in two separate naps while trying to figure out the point of this film.
On a serious note, Clooney should really stay away from space movies. I don't know which was worse - this one or the other pointless one with Sandra Bullock.
Live Rescue (2019)
Disappointing and Boring
I was so excited for this show after watching previews for months. But I can't even stay awake long enough to watch it. It is so slow and boring it puts me to sleep.
Dumplin' (2018)
Feel-Good Movie!
I rarely like Netflix movies enough to leave a review. But this one was worth it. Definitely worth watching.
The Fault in Our Stars (2014)
Loved at as much, maybe more, than the book.
I read the book in about 6 hours a few weeks ago. Loved it-- couldn't put it down. I did not have high hopes for the movie when I rented it tonight. Watching a movie after reading the book almost always leaves me disappointed.
I'm glad to say I'm not disappointed. At all. I'll watch it again tomorrow.
My husband and I laughed, cried and cried some more. I just could not get over the chemistry between Shailene Woodley and Ansel. I really thought it would be strange seeing them together romantically right after playing siblings who hate each other in Divergent. I wonder how that will play out in the divergent sequels...
This movie was just great.
