Law & Order: Open Wounds (2023)
A basic point is flawed
Federal law does not allow purchasing a hand gun across state lines. So defendant could not have driven to New Hampshire from out of state and bought a hand gun. Unless the dealer was shady. Which means they also should have been charged in the case. Shows involving gun laws always seem to ignore the finer points of said laws. McCoy's daughter has a voice that is, for lack of a better word, whiney. Bad for a lawyer. I also don't buy Price's sudden bout of angst. And in season 30+ of the show we might have McCoy's grandson as a District Attorney.
Now to waste words to get to the minimum size of review.
A Man Possessed (2016)
Amateur outing
A bunch of 3-8 minute disjointed scenes stuck together. A cop has sex with his wife. What does that have to do with the story? The cop and his partner interview a victim. She has her hand on her gun most of the time. You don't bring weapons into an interview room. How many times do we have to see the protagonist in flash back with his dead wife? We get it. And the lady in his bed sure did not look like his dead wife. Who was she? Was this filmed with an iPhone? The audio sucked. Old man killed. Dies with his eyes closed. First shot on autopsy table eyes are open. Next shot eyes closed. Guess we did not pay for a continuity person. How did protagonist determine the 3 guys he killed/hurt? No explanation. And why is the cops personal life so important?
Resident Evil (2022)
Tired of flash backs
I am 'only' 3 episodes in and tired of the flashbacks. I sure hope all 8 episodes don't use them. And I agree with the brat review someone else posted.
12 Rounds 3: Lockdown (2015)
Network experti
Yeah, sure. Field cops have network expertise. And giant text messages like UPLOAD CANCELLED do not appear in a command line window.
Hit and Run (2021)
Why so many F words?
Hebrew soundtrack dubbed into English. Do so many Israelis actually say the Hebrew word for f-k so much?
I also think English speaking Jewish people did the dubbing. Sometimes the English was hard to under stand.
And yes, there are too many dark scenes.
Only 2 episodes in but will keep going.
Streets of Fire (1984)
A question
Released. June, 1984. When was principal filming done?
Michael Jackson first did the moonwalk publicly May 16, 1983.
The movie? A redo of West Side Story.
Queen of the South (2016)
Good overall story
Rags to riches story. Just wondering how long before we see her don the white pants suit.
My biggest problem with the series occurred this past episode, S3 E3 Reina de Oros. I am sure it occurred before but I just noticed it this week. Some of the guns did not cycle when fired.
In one scene you get a good profile of a semi-automatic. The hammer is down and the slide never moves even though there are flashes coming out of the muzzle.
