Finch (2021)
Loved it!
This is a great movie when it's viewed for what it is - entertainment. People posting cynical reviews saying that the line about elbows on the table is Apple preaching morality miss the entire point. They were pretending to dine as families did back before the end of the world, and elbows on a table is something a parent would say to a child when dining out. People going on about it not being an action film also miss the point. It's not trying to be an action film. Those saying it failed to engage on an emotional level must be pretty hard-hearted. It is enjoyable family entertainment, funny in many places,with emotional scenes and lessons about what makes 'family' and what 'trust' really is. There were echoes of 'Short Circuit' and even a bit of 'I am Legend' as well, of course, of 'Cast Away'. Love every minute of it. Another great result by Tom Hanks.
Resident Alien (2021)
Hilarious and addictive
It takes a lot to get a 10 star review from me but Resident Alien achieves it easily. The way it subtly changes between humor, thriller, horror and even romance, is so well done. Shows about aliens don't really do much for me but this show is about much more than that. It cleverly illustrates what it means to be human, what community is about, how we impact others with what we say and do; and it does it all in a thoroughly entertaining show that I can't wait to see each week! I know we are just over halfway through season 1, but please commit to making a season 2 ....
American Justice (2015)
Total garbage!
This has to be one of the worst movies I can recall watching. Poor acting, cliché script lines, and background music at complete odds with what was happening in the movie. The script is so predictable that there isn't a single moment of suspense. Even the lines delivered by the actors were poorly delivered and the scowls on the face were contrived. There have been other movies that follow this plot line and some were dramatic and exciting, but not this one. At no time was I ever "pulled into" the story and wishing for characters to succeed, or anything else. This looks like something a high school class drama class would put together, and I'm sure they wold do a better job. If you're after rubbish non-thinking garbage to watch then you may enjoy this, but if you're after a movie that is truly entertaining skip this movie altogether. Life is too short to have to suffer through this crap.
