Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker (2019)
Glorious Finale
A fantastic, epic finale to the saga. I do not understand all the negative trolls here. What is wrong with you ?? Do you actually watch the movie at the cinema or start writing your senseless crap after 10 minutes?? The last episode is probably the best ending we could have gotten. Brilliant, intense, full of twists, excellent music, worthy ending. I am thankful.
War of the Worlds (2019)
Thanks for the FF function!
The worst I've seen in recent years. I managed to watch the full first (and probably last?) season of this weird show. There is nothing to show! Nothing to see! I have skipped 90% of the season and only watched the "action", "chase" and "shoot" moments by almost permanently clicking on the skip forward button. It is that lame. The first episode is intriguing and a fresh approach, but after that it becomes a contest of not falling asleep while pressing that ff button... oh, well, I'm sure it will find its audience, but definitely not my type of show I want to see when I read "War of the Worlds"...
Britannia (2017)
Fantastic and highly entertaining FANTASY, y'all !
I'm bingeing through the second season like a berserk. This series is pure entertainment with some elements of historical truth. The Romans did invade Britain and there were druids. 'Nuff history. The rest is just a great and sometimes funny, sometimes hilarious and often brutal story that keeps you glued to the screen. Excellent actors doing a fine and credible job, awesome settings, great costumes. It's all there to entertain you. Do you need historical accuracy? Watch Rome or Vikings or maybe The Gladiator or the History Channel. All trolls here who just watch a few episodes and then type away making this series bad have no clue about good entertainment and are not able to either understand what this is about or are just generally unsatisfied. Actually, I think they watch this while scrolling through social media or playing with their console. Pay attention to the show and the story for longer than just 10 mins ! If you do not like it, just go. There's a lot who love this form of storytelling. So, I definitely love the show and can't wait for more. The only negative point that prevents me from giving a full 9 is the music. I'm fully ok with being it what it is and that it tries to give you that special 70ies style with sex, drugs and rock 'n roll, but it's not my kind of music. There could be better choices. There, there you have it, something I do not like about the series. Is it bad because of that? No! Watch it, try to understand the fun in it and follow up. It's great. Viva Britannia !
Fear the Walking Dead (2015)
Fear the Walking Boredom...
The first three seasons were great, so different from the original TWD and refreshing. I liked the characters, the storyline, the action and the adventure they were going through. Especially I liked the episodes on that yacht in the early days. We hadn't seen that yet.
But then, with Season 4, FTWD just became something different, worsening from episode to episode, making a mess and confusion every week.
Enough, please, of that taping, enough all right with those booooring interviews, please, enough walkie-talkies (!). Get back on track and stop the incredibly boring human side scenes. Focus on the baddies (I lost track of them) and the zombies, do something surprising like in the early seasons. I have rated this an 8 for the first 3 seasons, now downgrading to 4... I'm literally watching with the help of the fast-forward function, skipping all the boredom between the moments where something really happens. Get the story straight again, authors! This thing is a gold mine and has potential. Try a new approach with Season 6 or else close this for good, as I'm not going to stand more of those ridiculous vhs recordings...
Rim of the World (2019)
Enjoy life, haters !!!
Again, all that hate from keyboard lions here. Why? The movie is enjoyable and fun to watch. There's so much worse out there. Yes, cgi could have been better, the sponsored sportswear a bit too obvious, the plot has holes, the physics, the logic... but hey, the main message is what? Post millennials internet spoiled solo kids with zero social competence band together, survive together and save the World... and become best friends for life! Apart from that, you get decent monster scenes, jokes, gore, some independence day alien show stuff... a fun & sometimes scary movie to watch with your kids and young adults! Lighten up ! Get a life ! Enjoy more ! It's a popcorn movie, not an Oscar candidate!!
Black Summer (2019)
A good show !
I cannot believe the number of haters writing their crap about this show here. It's a decent zombie apocalypse at the early stages of the plague. Noone knows how to kill a zombie in the beginning, so everybody is afraid and basically runs away scared. Why do we always have to assume we know how to deal with everything? Only because we watched other zombie series? C'mon! Humans have to adapt slowly to the new situation. Imagine happening this in real life, in your neighbourhood. I bet 90% of us would die in the first day of the horror. I like the show very much and I hope it continues. It's well paced, the scenes very nicely interconnected and it delivers a good overall picture of the situation once all streams come together. Awesome how the creatures are able to run and move very agile. The whole concept and storytelling is totally different from all other zombie series. That is why it is fresh and watchable. I even think it's more realistic and down to earth than many other shows about the subject. Give it a try, if you don't like it, stop whining and watch something else but don't write things like "I hope they don't do another season".
Nightflyers (2018)
Sensational scifi
Like so many others here, I do not understand the low ratings. This show is scifi at its best. It's been written in the 80ies, so probably not appealing enough to the Millennials here. It has everything one wishes for, a mysterious alien entity, a great cast, a voyage in a spaceship, a matrix, VR, horror, suspense, mindcontrol, gore, moments of sadness, moments of fear, a great character building and the longer you watch, the better you understand the interconnected and interwoven storylines. Absolutely fantastic.
I've watched the whole season and hope for a continuation! It is intellectually demanding, but ut is a rare gem on tv. High quality production delivered. Full stop.
