Night Swim (2024)
5/10
Good story and not as bad but...
7 January 2024
This movie is not as bad as some of these reviews. Its a very good story but doesn't hold up. The story takes far too long to develop. It has a very low scare factor except for a few areas. It is made out to ve a horror film but its really a family issue story with horror at the end. I like the cast. Effects are so so. I don't know why James Waan produced this. Maybe he should have directed it. Just ok and not a waste of money. Released a pool.movie in winter not very good. The best part of this movie was the baseball part. Some of the horror part seems to have been done before. This movie is disappointing overall.

The Lost City (2022)
6/10
Average at best
2 April 2022
I wanted to like this movie. Just about every cast member was miscast. Terrible screenplay! Absolutely no chemistry between Bullock and Tatum except in one scene. Bullock played the character too hard. Not a terrible movie but far less than I expected for the cast.

Poltics Again!
19 May 2021
This show has a great cast. The writers need help. You are going full woke. Social justice etc. You can do what you want but I won't be watching. You had a cool storyline and look to each his own but...I dont need to be taught lessons when I'm watching a tv show. You are on thin ice. Black oppression, gay rights, Asian racism, white people issues. This is NOT what the show was suplised to be or was it?

Warning: Spoilers
I like this this show but keep the the current events OUT!!! We've heard enough of bad bad police on black stories. We don't want injustice of ANYONE and we dont need it for our entertainment! The way the characters lines were framed "but your police". The white guy is the bad guy AGAIN. I turned this off.

No where near as bad as stated by others
28 February 2021
This is a below acerage movie for sure. The music and soundtrack nothing close to the other movies. The story is good the directing is bad. Lighting is horrible. But if you read the other review's you would think this was the wirst movie on the planet. This is just not true. The thing this movie does is give you a portion of the story and that is good. This movie could have been greatly improved with proper lighting and directing. Hopefully the next one isxwhat we are looking for.

Good but....
14 February 2021
This was a longer movie. Great cast and acting but a terrible ending. Everything was going well until the end. I guess the writer tried to twist us. Sorry not good. Unfortunately it was building in a great direction and crescendo then fizzled. Plus never truly explained...only partially. This wasn't an acting failure however at the end directing and story twist. Sometimes when a story twists like that there are ooos and aaas well not here!

Great movie!!!
27 December 2020
Anyone that gives this movie low ratings must be blind. Gal Gadot is ABSOLUTELY stunning. Its a cool story and very entertaining. The people in my theater loved this movie as did I. It's fanasy super hero. Take it for what it is and enjoy the ride. Or be a whiny movie cynic and cry in yiur beer. This movie is highly recommended!

Great Story and effects definitely worth seeing
25 August 2019
Hey this is a Shark movie. I'm a diver abd this movie breaks almost every dive safety and cave diving rule. But it's for entertainment and is very good. Lije the first movie its great Underwater cinematography. I really liked the story too. A little better than the first but a bigger budget too. Recommended!

Chernobyl (2019)
10/10
Awesome Mini Series
7 August 2019
I am not a historian but have studied this event for many years. I was in the U S. Military when this event occurred. I hated what happened to those people abd I'm not Russian fan but people are people. Politicians have been bad on all sides forever but then it was so bad. After studying this event I got interested in the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl video game. The artists captured so many events in the game abd although its fiction the artwork is accurate. Subsequently when this mini series came out it brought the horrifying events to life. Very sad and entertaining at the same time. The onky negative was the British cast for their accents. The acting, screenplay and cinematography was outstanding. Highly recommended!!!

Worth Your Time
22 January 2019
Looking through user reviews I was disappointed. Normally for movies or tv shows I look to the users not the critics. Its my opinion and yiu don't hace to agree with it but I wonder what drives some of these users. I thought the story was outstanding tge effects very good abd wrting excellent. The cast is perfect. This is the type of show you need to follow. If you cannot do that its not for you. I'm entertained. I put myself in the character's place. That way I engage. I'm not hollow and looking from the outside in. Time travel shows have always fascinated me and this is what draws me to this. Think about what would happen if it was you! Life changed forever. Wife gone kuds gone relatives gone. It was 5 years but to you its 5 minutes. The story is complex abd has developed well as of January 2019. I hope this show goes on. I really like Monday nights and looj forward to this show. Yes its soap and sci-fi abd that's wgat majes it great!

A sure win!
6 October 2018
Very emotional. Great in every way. I did not expect it to be as great as it was. I was big fan of the 1976 version. I can hardly wait for the soubdtrack. Sound and cinematography was great. Cooper hit a home run directing.

Peppermint (2018)

Nothing Negative
22 September 2018
Word of mouth is pretty good on this one. Action packed believable with a good story. Lots of bad guys that have played really bad guys in other movies. Garner worked hard on this one. If you liked Law abiding citizen Death Wish or Death Sentence you will love this!

Mother! (2017)
1/10
Just Bad
17 September 2017
This movie should have never been done by Lawrence plain and simple. I like her past work but this story is disgusting and makes no sense. Look I love action movies and don't care about violence but I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I would have walked out but decided to try to see what the heck was going on after suffering so long. Do not waste your money and furthermore I honestly do not see how anyone and I mean anyone can give this movie a favorable review or even a mediocre review just on the story alone. The director uses Jen as eye candy for us and that is me included but that is a small factor. Bad directing, bad story means bad. Also to note was how so many people leaving the theater were asking these questions like I cannot believe what I just saw. I see movies twice a week and have my likes and dislikes. I am rarely disappointed like this.

Passengers (I) (2016)
9/10
Great Movie
26 December 2016
Do NOT listen to the critics. This is a great movie. Stunning special effects. Great acting and story. I NEVER listen to critics EXCEPT the regular viewing public. They have steered me wrong wrong so many times. This movie makes you think "what would I do" if I was in this situation. Now the critics put up so much negative information then people just give up. So sad. Critics rarely like ANY Sci-Fi films and we know the academy doesn't. Bottom line does this movie entertain you. The answer is YES. Since you are engrossed in the happenings on screen the sense of time just goes away. If you like Chris Pratt and JLaw you WILL like this movie.
