Only Murders in the Building (2021)
Really enjoy this!
This show is fun, light-hearted and enjoyable! And just when we all really need it. No agendas or propaganda here! It's such a breath of fresh air! And, this is the best thing I have seen Martin and Short in for a very long time! Kudos!
The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It (2021)
Watchable, but disappointing
This third installment just didn't stand up to the first two. Not scary at all. The first two scared the crap out of me. This one, not so much. Slightly boring even.
Debris (2021)
Nah.
I really wanted to like this. Alas, halfway through episode 8, I couldn't take it anymore and had to stop watching. So boring. I hate to be cliche.... but, it's such a shame, it had so much potential. Sorry. It just fell flat for me. If you want some really excellent dramatic sci-fi, do yourself a favor; skip this one and go check out Dark! Best show ever made! Period. Sci-fi or otherwise.
Tell Me Your Secrets (2021)
LOVE Lily Rabe, but this show is just terrible.
Lily Rabe is actually one of my favorite female actors. However, this show is just bad. I was so disappointed because I was excited for a new show with Lily. I can't even really put my finger on why I don't like it so much. It's bizarre, unsettling, and just not good. If I can put my finger on it and figure out a way to articulate it, I'll post an update. Not quite sure how it's got a 7.4 rating quite honestly. Coming from a pro binger, steer clear. I really tried to like it and kept hanging on in hopes that it would get better, but it never did...
Dark (2017)
Profound. Do yourself a favor, watch in original German w/English subtitles
Wow. Just wow! I have so many feels about this show I don't even know where to begin.
Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead, Stranger Things. Though I love all of these shows, and they are rightfully 10s, Dark? Dark is just not even in the same league. There us nothing else like it on television. Dark is hands down, the BEST show I have ever seen in my 45 years. Period. I know that may sound a little bit melodramatic, but it couldn't be more true. I feel like no amount of words I could use to rate/describe this show would ever do it justice.
The acting, superb. Storyline, engrossing. Character development, spot-on. Cinematography, breathtaking.
It is enthralling, thought provoking, mind-bending, mind-blowing, so profound, and just an all around genius show. After finishing the last season, I just sat there in awe for literally an hour. I am sad that it is over.
I will admit, it can be a little bit difficult to follow at times, so it is not one of those shows that you can be playing around on your phone while watching if you want to understand what's going on. But trust me when I say, it is so worth hanging in there and putting down your phone.
Initially, I started watching it in dubbed English. Terrible. I don't know what made me decide to go back and start over in the original German with English subtitles, but I'm so glad I did. The show just isn't the same in the horrible dubbed English.
So, do yourself a favor, put down your phone right now and go start watching this show in it's original German form with English subtitles. You'll thank me later.
P.S. If you're going to be watching this show for the first time, I am so jealous of you. I think I just may just go watch it for a third time.... ENJOY!!
Let It Snow (2019)
LOVE it!
Super fun, super cute, super sweet, feel-good movie! ALL the feels!! Yes, for some it does probably push the "tolerance" agenda a little in parts, but so what. This world could use some more love and acceptance. Lighten up a little and get over it. Spread the freakin love dude and get into the holiday spirit! It's Christmas! 😄
The King (2019)
EXCELLENT!
I wasn't sure about watching this at first. But, Wow! Just wow! So glad I decided to give it a chance. Excellent movie! Unusually easy to follow period movie. Very heartfelt and moving. Superb acting by all, especially by Chalamet. Love this movie!
