Obi-Wan Kenobi (2022)
Really Disney?!
SW Fans have received a lot of flak for being "toxic" and i really think that is unjustified. As an old SW fan (way back to the originals) i love the SW Universe, the characters and the whole setup. Thats why i continue to have my hopes up for the SW series/film being produced by Disney.
Unfortunately Disney not only don't deliver, they manage to take epic characters like Darth Vader, Boba Fett and no Obi Wan, and make them into stupid, weak characters in a childish written plot.
This series are the worst of the SW series so far! It is written poorly, acting is terrible and dont see this with shoes on, because your toes will curl so much, they just pop right out of the shoes.
I dragged myself trogh 3 episodes, but couldnt stand any more. Do yourself a favor and dont degrate Obi Wans memory by seeing this (or wath at your own peril!)
Old (2021)
Simply bad!
I like a lot of Shyalamans movies, even the more dodgy ones, but this! I had absolutely NO expectations and even then i was disappointed.
I gave stars for the idea itself and nothing else. The story is stupid and makes no sense (the twist in the end is just ridicilous). The acting is horrible (putting it kindly) and especially Prisca (the female lead) "plays" so your toes almost breaks inside your shoes!
The "logic" of the place is none existing, and sometimes it adds or subtracts things because the plots needs it, and you sit most of the time scrathing your head thinking: "Well if that occured then why didnt...."
Just garbage, stay away from this, its not even interesting as some of his other flicks, that are maybe not topnotch but has SOME interesting and redeeming points.
Nightmare Alley (2021)
Engine failure in mid-race !
Good start for this film with nice character buildup, but then it just looses power in a long mid-section where the action is drawn out. I didnt expect a fastpaced actionpacked flick (love most of his other films), but this one had both me, and my wife struggling to stay awake. It revs up a bit in the end, but not nearly enough to make it into the points.
Werewolves Within (2021)
Solid little gem
Thias is by no mean an oscar-winning drama, but it doesn't pretend to be either.
Its a solid little horror/comedy-film, where you are being kept in suspense through-out the film (is it REALLY a werewolf or...).
I was entertained and if you go into this not expecting all-out gory multiple effect-show, then you might be pleasently surprised...like i did :-)
The Bye Bye Man (2017)
Terrible story, just terrible
Watched this with zero expectations, just hoping to see a relatively good halloween-flick like Scream, but damn this movie really was bad. Very poor story with extremly bad acting.
Dont waste your time here, move on and find something better.....period.
Loki (2021)
Sigh....another good character killede by Woke :-(
I like the character Loki and especially with Tom Hiddleston at the helm of this character., but he gets butchered in this serie!
This god/demigod just runs around like a headless chicken in the footsteps of the REAL maincharacter...wait for it!....yep you guessed it!.....A FEMALE LOKI!
Yep, like Bond and Indiana Jones we need to get all those nasty, evil men gutted, neutered and thrown out of the plots, so we can get some strong, woke female characters to do ALL the heavy lifting, while the men stand behind them looking confused.
Look at the critical drinker on YT, he has it nailed - Cannot recommend this show (unfortunately).
Hvide Sande (2021)
Cliche after cliche - Too bad
Even as a dane i find it difficult to find many kind words to say about this tv-serie. Me and the wife gave up after 1½ episode.
The characters were unbelievable, and the writing were lazy in my opinion and copypasted from too many american tv-series.
Scenes and undercover "police work" that makes you cringe. After the tenth times my toes curled out of my socks because of poor dialog, we decided to stop the torture.
I like the whole idee about undercover work in a small tightlipped society, but the writing and the clumsy work from the policeofficers were simply too much.
There are way better nordice crime-series out there like "Forbrydelsen" and "Broen" just to mention a couple. Give them a chance and pass on this one (In my opinion!)
Marco effekten (2021)
Dull and bland
Saw the first films with Nikolaj-Lie Kaas as inspector Mørck and Fares Fares as Assad.
It could work with Mørck (Played by Ulrich Thomsen) being rude, having no empathy and hellbound on solving the case no matter whos toes he treads upon. But when the rest of the crew around him acts more or less in the same fashion it simply gets boring and uninteresting. Where Assad were much more involved, and a individual character in the first films, he is reduced to a weak voice in the background and a boring sidekick.
Rosa is also tuned dowfrom a strong and independent woman in the first films, to an uninteresting and forgettable supporting role.
The plot is obvius and you have to struggle not to doze off while you see it.
If you have not seen the first films, go check them out and give this one a wide berth.
The Dead Don't Die (2019)
Boring and stupid - Great cast wasted on stupid, incoherent story
I like the premise and love hoororflicks with a different spin and humour, like Zonbieland or The Cabin in the woods. But this is simply stupid and the humour is very poorly written and several scenes the "fun" is apparently diffent charcaters walking in the shot saying the same line another character just had said. This happens several times during the film.
More over this flick is sloooooooow. I dont have to have fireworks and carchase all the time, i like slow periods, but this is like smailpace, with boring scenes, boring jokes and simply...boring.
Love the cast, the genre but gotta say big no to this poorly executed attempt.
Cam (2018)
Annoying bad story, annoying leadgirl, just...annoying movie
We start out seeing the lead perform as a camgirl. Fair enough, we need to establish her role, both professionally and private. But we see WAY too much. This is suppose to be a thriller not a peepshow. She is also irritating as a person, fake, hollow and whe her alter-ego gets taken over there is nothing at stake, other than the stupid cam show. No one seeks to kill her, stalk her or otherwise threaten her. Her main goal is to "get her alter ego cam girl persona back"....really!?!? Is that the story?? Plz dont see this flick, there are WAY better films out there, that doesnt waste your time.
I See You (2019)
Very good and surprising thriller
I have seen a lot of thrillers in my time, and seen most plots, and twists in these, both good and bad. I believe i have a keen eye for spotting the "surprises" in thrillers, but this one really took me by surprise.
It starts of with on premise, where you sit and say: "Oh no...not another one of these!" and then it flings you in a completely different direction, and just as you go along with the new direction and think you have figured that route out, it does it again! I really liked it, just keep with it, and remember: THIS ONE IS DIFFERENT!
The Outsider (2020)
Great acting, good story, fine start (please keep it up!)
A great start with good plot, great actors, dialogue and some good twists and plotpoints, that keeps you dangling in suspense, wanting more. I'm hooked and can't wait for episode 3!
The Witcher (2019)
Great show...jut sit through first episode then it unfolds!
Saw the first episode and was kind of disappointed. Great lead as the Witcher, but other characters were weak, plot-things that made little sense. But sit through the first episode because this series takes off from episode 2!
Great stories, great fun. Cavill that absolutely NAILs the witcher part and great characters around him. So dont give up on it if you find the first episode a little lackluster...just you wait!
Arctic (2018)
Great survival movie without cheasy story pitfalls
Great survival story, with stellar performance by Mads Mikkelsen. His character actually does almost everything right (besides a few errors that can be contributed to extreme fatigue). But there are no cheasy flashbacks, no cheap storytricks), This is a simple, yet compelling story about survival and being human.
The Boys (2019)
Best show this year (apart from Tjernobyl....ofc!)
This is absolutely amazing! I loved this series was surprising, entertaining, funny (dark), exciting, satiric.
It was 8 episodes that flew by way, way too fast, and i can't wait until season 2.
This has the freshness "Watchmen" had when it came out, just better i think, and a big middle finger too all the corporate spinning, social medias and what is important in today's society.
I don't write many reviews in here, but had to do it for this series, it is worth it, trust me!
Game of Thrones: The Iron Throne (2019)
I wont join the howling pack !!
Did the eighth season bring disappointment to me? Yeah sure it did, but then again expectations were maybe too high?
Im fully aware that this season has issues with plot holes, deux ex machina-moments and so forth but c'mon guys....it seems in these times that you either run around throwing flowers and worshipping something or you absolutely completely hate it, loathe it and badmouth it.
So now it appears that the trend now, is to be the one hating this season most. Maybe you should try and step back a minute and look at the whole season. Could it have been more refined and would a few more episodes have helped? perhaps...maybe but still...to throw the season to the wolves like that is just dead wrong in my opinion.
