Invasion (2021–2024)
1/10
Do Not Waste Your Time
17 April 2023
While the series ended without conclusion and the actors were great the entire plot was horrible. This reminded me of a writer and director who had to put something together to justify the expense and failed miserably. This series was a complete waste of electrons. These are hours of my life I'll never get back. Thank goodness for Fast Forward. Invasion may be looked at as worse then "Lost". At least Lost had a decent plot for the first couple of years.

The set up of different lives was ok. Its how the lives were drawn out with senseless emotions and staring off into oblivion that make Fast Forward a must have. Based on this movie, Hollywood and TV have to get their acts together or many of us will just be watching old movies and TV shows. They're more entertaining than some of the modern junk being forced down our throats.

The move shows M41 tanks with US markings. The United States did not operate M41s. Only South Viet Nam Army did. It should be noted though that the M-41 was effective against T-54 & 55 tanks.

Mayor of Kingstown (2021– )

Uniforms of the PD.
19 December 2021
Who ever did the uniforms on this show is a real idiot. A Captain is seen in S1 E7 talking to everyone over about a homicide. He is wearing Captain bars with Corporal stripes on his arm, Full Bird Colonel bar on his chest and what appeared to be General Stars under the Colonel bar. You missed Sergeant stripes and Sergeant Major s stripes.

Get it together. It looks stupid.

Treadstone (2019)
10/10
A good spin off
30 November 2021
I had my doubts about Treadstone but was pleasantly surprised with the different sub-plots. I liked the twist and turns. 1973 to present day and back. As far as I am concerned the writers did great with the story. Some people didn't like it because the show didn't mention Jason Bourne but he wasn't part of this story line. It's sad that it took all these years to bring it to the Tube.

Hunter Killer (2018)
7/10
Good story line
18 August 2021
I found the story line to be original, for the most part very well laid out and enjoyable . The under the sea portions were ok but not to the Red October standard. The close ups of the American sub were ok over all. The acting for the most part ok.

I am still trying to figure out why the Russian officers were using American decoration ribbons.

A comedy with a fresh story line
14 April 2021
While cruising through ACORN we found this gem. What a nice change. Leave it to the British to get a great show. To bad it was only one season. This show made the wife and I laugh almost nonstop. The show was filled with sexual innuendos without being offensive.

A complete waist of Kodak.

The only positive thing I have to say about this film is I had access to Fast Forward. Hollywood is scraping the bottom of the barrel for scripts.

I waisted 15 minutes of my life

Thank you who ever invented Fast Forward. P.P. acting, honorable script.

Another reason I do very few films at the box office.

How It Ends (2018)
3/10
Very Disappointed
23 July 2018
Warning: Spoilers
The beginning is very good and had me guessing. That is wear it ends. The plot started out good. Then it went down hill a warp speed. The end only signaled that I had misspent my time. For the most part the actors were good. I have always enjoyed movies that Mr. Whitaker had made. This one, not so much.

The special effects were ok. The movie is full of "What in the heck were you thinking" parts. There were too many parts where it didn't fit. Like why was a train convoy of M1 tanks and MRLS being deployed to a disaster area? Why did the power fail but all of the gas pumps were working? Did they drive off into the sunset or did the volcano eat them? The end will leave you thinking "Why, Why did I waist my time?"

I gave it three (3) stars only because..... I don't know why. Guess because I liked most of the actors.

I know everyone is trying to have their own movie studio now a days, but use better judgement when selecting this stuff when selecting a scrip.
