Foundation (2021)
Review bombs are already being dropped!
Genius television! Outstanding performances especially Jared Harris. Ignore the Trump supporting reviews and watch it for yourself.
Pig (2021)
Your score is directly proportional to your intelligence!
Absolutely brilliant film that is not suitable for morons or cro magnons! I really do pity who get or enjoy this film. Best of the year so far!
Together (2021)
Brilliant heartbreaking drama!
A reflection on the incompetent response by the UK government. Riveting, funny, heartbreaking!
The Undoing (2020)
Ahhh Nicole Kidman's face!
Nicole Kidman's part was played by a Spitting Image puppet! Her face was completely off putting. Needs to grow old gracefully. Naff show. Bland script. The plot development was handled like an advent calendar!
On the Rocks (2020)
Naff! Naff! Naff! Naff! Naff!
Made for tv cheese fest! Avoid and save yourself 90mins of your life! The ending made me want to rip my own plums off!!
The Haunting of Bly Manor (2020)
Haunting of Meh Manor
An unnecessary and clumsy serial remake of the film The Innocents. Not a patch on the Haunting of Hill House! The "English" accents are laughable from the American actors. Just watch the film instead. Poor adaptation!
Tenet (2020)
Nolan's first dud!
Saw this at the Everyman in Liverpool today and boy was I disappointed! Generic story line, with an unbelievable love tryst between a 7 foot woman and a wee James Bond wannabe! I literally couldn't care less what happened to whom in the end. This is certainly no Momento, Dunkirk or Inception. Don't waste your money!
Perry Mason (2020)
Brilliant! A meditation on PTSD
Superb script and really gritty hard hitting story line. LA Confidential vibe helps embroider the ghastly world during the depression. Ignore the reactionary reviews. This is a superb show.
Run (2020)
I'm speechless!
I absolutely loved Fleabag and therefore was naturally drawn to this show. What a mess! The two protagonists completely miscast. Dumb egocentric unlikeable characters. Absolute shocker! Don't get me started over the their "self loving" in the train toilets!! Avoid! Avoid! Avoid!
Hunters (2020)
Excellent show!
Some agendas being expressed in reviews, the same seen with Watchmen. Read between the lines of the negative reviews. Slick script, shocking violence and another stab at the undercurrent of racism in the USA.
The Witcher (2019)
Absolutely brilliant!!
Having read the books and played Witcher 3 I was worried about this adaptation, however, there was no need! Some people seem to fixating on the colour of people's skin, hair and beard (or lack thereof) and the obvious tweaks to the storyline. Cavill is tremendous as the Witcher. His sword choreography is as good as I've seen in any film. Just chill out and enjoy this brilliant show. I may just get over that final season of GOT with this tremendous show!
Watchmen (2019)
My anti white supremacist review didn't make it!
So what does that say about IMDB?? Brilliant show.. As a white British man I'm ashamed of our colonial past I love when the norm is challenged! Regina King is Queen!
Joker (2019)
Absolutely fantastic! Ignore the sniffy critics
I never get swept up in the hype of films. But this film is worthy of it. An absolute masterpiece. Phoenix is magical in his performance. Seen it twice already!
Too Old to Die Young (2019)
Absolute pretentious tosh!
Words fail me. Billy Baldwin doing a tiger impression with a child's toy finished me off! My wife and I laughed so long and hard at this moment, we were still laughing as I turned this nonsense over to something less annoying. I enjoyed Driver but this was a joke!
The Name of the Rose (2019)
Liberation theology FTW
Dark, broody, intelligent. Enjoyed first episode. Enjoying the attack on the mainstream church and its greed. I'm rooting for the Franciscans! Book lovers are whining a bit. I don't think I've seen many book adaptations of anything that came close to books so chill out. John Turturro's English accent is decent.
Defending the Guilty (2018)
Ignore the sniffy reactionary reviews!
Great show! Witty, sharp script with excellent characters. Not sure why people are sneering at this show. Fleabag comparisons are moronic! I loved Fleabag and love this show!
Marianne (2019)
Ignore the idiotic negative reviews!!
This is easily up there with The Haunting of Hill House. I love my horrors and this does not disappoint. Absolutely top notch acting, writing and direction. Watched 6 episodes in one sitting it's that good. The negative reviews are clearly from non horror fans or those who haven't even bothered to watch it. I don't do dumb horrors (Hereditary etc). Absolutely brilliant!
Scarborough (2019)
Truly terrible
Watched the first episode and will not be returning for anymore. Honestly, don't waste your time. Unfunny annoying characters, bland script straight from a bygone age. Makes Last of the Summer Wine seem edgy and sophisticated.
The Capture (2019)
Absolute garbage
Sub soap opera script, pouty main character and laughably poor acting of the main protagonist. Honestly don't waste your time. I can't believe this was commissioned! Truly ridiculous. Remove the swearing and put it on CBBC
Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw (2019)
Film for morons
Honestly it's no wonder this world is going to hell in a hand cart with dumb films like this raking in the cash. Absolute unwatchable nonsense.
Years and Years (2019)
Died after episode 3
Trope laden show was just about watchable after 2 episodes , however, the sneering, unlikeable, moronic characters combined with the sub par writing has done it for me. The running over of the delivery boys bike at the end of three was dumb dumb dumb! Don't waste your time. Switch over and watch the brilliant Chernobyll or season 2 of Killing Eve!
Dead to Me (2019)
Cynical cheesy clap trap
Handled really badly, clearly written by people who haven't clearly experienced true grief. Episode 5 did it for me. Grief singles shagging weekend! Honestly started so well and then crashed spectacularly! Don't bother!
Game of Thrones (2011)
7 brilliant seasons ruined by S8
Episode 3 was an unforgivable mess. Can't even be bothered to watch this disaster of a season any longer. George RR Martin will be tearing his beard out!
Ghosts (2019)
Ignore the sniffy reviews
Passed the 6 laugh test easily in both episodes. My family and I are Horrible History fans and was made up with their latest artistic outing. Really funny enjoyable show.
MotherFatherSon (2019)
Absolute hogwash!
I'm annoyed with myself for wasting 8 hours of my life on this daft TV show. Richard Gere's all knowing Darth Vader character with the little brown files he hands out and states check mate! Please don't waste your time with this terribly written drama.
