Little Bird (2023)
10/10
Amazing Heartbreaking Series
4 October 2023
I binge watched this series last night. This is by far, the best series I've watched in a long time. I was fortunate enough to work up in Whitehorse, Yukon Territory for just under five years. This gave me the opportunity to work side by side with the First Nation people and learn all about their culture.

This series depicts the terrible actions against them. The actors were brilliant and following the story was really interesting and compelling viewing.

For many people who do not know about this shameful part of Canadian history, I ask that you please watch this series. I recognised a couple of the actors from other shows.

Amazing film making.

Hereafter (2010)
10/10
Underrated Movie which is amazing
25 July 2023
I just watched this movie again. When I saw it originally I loved it. The storyline, the characters, everything was enthralling. Matt Damon as usual was his brilliant self, I think he's one of the finest actors around. Every feeling is expressed on his face without saying a word. The French actress who I had never seen before played her part beautifully.

The sadness of loss is really everything this movie is about. If only we could have more time with a friend or relative that we have lost. I'm sure many people can totally relate to that. Particularly the scenes of the young kid desperately wanting to be with his twin brother. The Tsunami scene at the beginning of the movie was breathtaking, SO realistic, you felt you were drowning in the water. Anyway, give this movie a chance, you won't regret it.

Great Movie
8 July 2023
I have been wanting to see this movie ever since it was released. I finally rented it on Amazon Prime. Every one of the actors was brilliant. You get emotionally invested right from the beginning. It really was believable and I'm sure lots of people could relate to this story. I know I could. It's great to see a movie which isn't totally "Hollywood " if you get what I mean. Plus you get to see the beautiful scenery of Ireland. I really can't find any fault with this film. I'm not sure what else I can add, however, it seems that you now have to have a minimum amount of words? Anyway, I highly recommend this movie.

Ten Days in the Valley (2017–2018)

This is all over the place
15 February 2023
This series has everything but the kitchen sink. All these story lines and nothing making sense. It's not one thing or another. Who directed this? Kyra Sedgwick looks too old to have an eight year old too. The relationship of her character and her sister isn't even believable. Now we have the head cop's son getting introduced into this. Why? The script is pretty bad. It's like too many people got involved in this production. Kyra S character is a moron plus her facial expression never changes. I'm on episode 6 but honestly I'm not sure if I'm going to keep watching it. If I'd been the kid I think I would have run away!

Very poor movie
25 July 2022
I love boxing movies and have seen them all. This was like some amateurish production. Matt H cannot act to save himself. Maybe a better lead actor could have lifted this movie up to mediocrity. Russel Crowe was the only good thing about this movie. Don't waste your time watching it, frankly I'd rather have gone to the dentist than watch this!

Sherwood (II) (2022– )
4/10
Too Far Fetched
23 June 2022
I find this series all over the place. I was really looking forward to it with all the great actors in it. What a disappointment! I think the directing should have been much better. Some scenes go on forever unnecessarily. The script is weak too. It's like some bad 80s series with the camera work. What a waste of time.

A Mother's Lie (2021 TV Movie)
1/10
Dreadful tv movie
5 June 2022
This is one of the worst movies I've ever watched. Storyline is ridiculous as is the acting and makeup. The actress who played the Grandmother/mother who is she? She acted like the Wicked Witch of the West, completely unbelievable character.

Shocking
14 March 2022
The lack of employment laws in the UK is ridiculous. This programme shows how a large company treats it's employees. We all know what company this actually is in real life!

I loved season 1, it was interesting and SO enjoyable. I was really looking forward to Season 2 and what a disappointment. It wasn't interesting or engaging.

The Drowning (2021)
1/10
Completely unbelievable
4 February 2021
As mentioned by other reviewers, the police when notified of this boy who looks like her son, would have taken her seriously. Gone to his home and spoken to his father about this; taken a DNA sample etc. That's it end of!! This woman instead for some reason needs phoney ID this part is ludicrous. Who wrote this nonsense. Nothing is logical!
