Dynasties (2018)
A masterpiece of television
This series is a true masterpiece of television. The soundtrack, cinematography, and editing are all phenomenal! Honestly, I would rate this above Planet Earth 2. The stories enthral me from the start. The most amazing thing is that the stories are true The BBC NHU have expertly captured the true brutality and fragility of nature.
The Last Man on Earth (2015)
Cringy and Frustrating
This comedy series started off really well, but took a nose dive, and now it's so difficult to enjoy it. Phil is literally the most psychotic person, and worst decision maker I've ever seen in a "non-black" comedy. I know plot twists can be exciting, but the shear amount of frustrating moments when things go badly for Phil, either because Phil makes a terrible decision, or someone else does something wrong, make one want to punch their screen. It is slightly enjoyable, and a little a addictive to watch at times. Although it may be boring, I just want things to go right for Phil! So I would recommend watching this, but only if you can stand the frustration.
The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014)
Awesome film, but some very laughably wrong moments.
If good ol' badass orc killin' is your thing, then you'll love this film. I definitely did. The beginning scene with Smaug is perfect, and the visual quality of the film is superb. There are many times in the film where you are on the edge of your seat, as there are many heroic and all round awesome/badass fight scenes which ultimately make the film what it is i.e. the scene with Elrond and Saruman fighting the mortal men. However, I could not help but laugh at some points in the film, where continuity and physics in general just went to pot. Firstly, Legolas jumping on the the falling stones on the bridge, just no. Secondly, the battle mountain goats, WHERE DID THEY COME FROM?! Did they store them in the mountain? In which case they would have to be fed, and it certainly wasn't the dragon who did it. Did they bring the goats with them the whole journey? I didn't see them. Thirdly, the white orc, who is in a horizontal position, with a sword stuck in Thorin's foot, about a metre below incredibly thick ice manages to leap and break through the ice and land upright. Where did he get the power to do this? He would have to get a "run up" or whatever, which clearly he did not get. Finally, LEGOLAS RUNS OUT OF ARROWS! This never even happened in the LOTR. Clearly there are never enough arrows in his quiver for the amount he actually uses, but we as the viewer just accept this. But when he runs out at a point where he most needs an arrow, it just isn't there. These are just 4 of the stupendous moments in the film which I could not hesitate to laugh at, purely because they make no sense. Nevertheless, you will still enjoy this film, because it is great.
