It's a Sci-Drama....be patient.
23 December 2020
It's slow yes, but overall well acted and the last half is worth watching. They could create a great series about all the side stories. This almost feels like a pilot. I want more of the pre-story and the after-story! Overall enjoyable film for me. 6/10.

Great acting and a good story.
24 November 2020
These critics are ridiculous! This is a nice story, very well acted. Amy Adams and Glenn Close did a fantastic job. I found the first third to be a bit much, erratic and lots of yelling, but if you can get though that it's a rewarding film. It kind of grows on you over 2 hours and by the end you feel more connected to the characters. Overall 6/10.

Very good

Loved this film. Such a great way to intersect emotion with thriller/science fiction. Very well acted and directed. I shed a tear!

The Hater (2020)

Quite Good
30 July 2020
This film is timely, well acted, creates an eerie dark atmosphere and is well written and directed. Very interesting plot that fits in well with today's sick world of social media and what goes on behind closed doors. Also shows an interesting portrayal of a sociopath. A few minor plot holes, but overall quite enjoyable.

How a franchise gets created 101
10 July 2020
Welp, Netflix did it again. Another comic book adaptation success that will now be an awesome new universe and franchise. This is a great kick off, although slightly flawed, original piece of cinema. Can't wait for the next one that will start to dig into the why's and the what's. What a fun movie!

Fun Action Movie!
13 December 2019
Ignore the negative haters on here. I'm not a huge action guy, but I found this one quite enjoyable. Good combo of crazy action scenes, comedy and some good acting. I actually think it could have been a bit longer at the end, but overall a very enjoyable movie with great car chases and grandios action sequences that impressed me. 8/10! Enjoy!.... Also a cool message. :)

Past and present
15 November 2019
The movie conveys your soul past and present following trauma. That's the basis of this film. I loved it from the acting to the writing. A soul broken can slowly be repaired. Every human knows this. If you're an open minded person just view it in that mindset. The lead is utterly incredible. Ex machina showed film goers her talent and they're conveyed here. Enjoy!

Need more!
2 October 2019
This is a great show. Ryan Murphy gets it. Loved it from start to finish. Need a second season soon! Everything about this show is great from the acting, the direction, the set design and the writing. Season 2 couldn't come fast enough!

Poop on a stick
1 October 2019
Could have been cool. Had many ways to go instead it just wanders into a wasteland of nothingness. Happens. The 2 lead actresses were good. Most everything else sucked.

Simple and Funny...Zach is good.
20 September 2019
I enjoyed it. Was funny for the most part. They cut short some of the celeb interviews but overall I found it funny. People need to keep in mind that this is the driest humor you'll encounter besides Larry David.

Overall it's funny, it's not really a film but more a device to show Zach terrorizing celebs. Overall it's simple and funny. Again they could have elongated the interviews, but it's still funny. Oh and watch the credits......:)

Black Road (2016)

Not horrible. Should be a series.
29 August 2019
This should be a series not a movie. Too much to unpack and too little time. The concept is great just the movie is rushed and there's no real message or meaning. It needs 10 episodes to flesh it out. I see huge potential of Netflix or someone digs in.

Great Sci Fi
28 August 2019
Really enjoyed this show. Given that it's voiced over in English for me it's still gripping. I love the dynamics between the "super bot" and each character. She really steals the show. The main lead guy is ok, but does his part. Overall totally bingeable and fun. Great sci fi. I can envision this happening in real life not too far down the road.

Dog bites man man bites dog=werewolf flick
23 August 2019
I feel like 30 minutes of film were dumped on the cutting room floor. Def rushed, but great sfx and I liked the overall plot. Thor is a badass. Any movie with a badass dog I'm in. Good flick. Too short.

The Family (2019)

Interesting and Disturbing All at Once
12 August 2019
Compelling content that shows one (of many) shadow organizations that control the governments of the world. The separation of church and state is a fallacy.

I like how the docuseries was composed, mixing re-enactments with real interviews and news footage. Tells a somewhat disturbing story on a subversive shadow group within DC. Really enjoyed it!!

It's pretty good...too much dialogue
1 August 2019
Good little indie flick. Definitely low budget but has some nice dynamics going for it. It's short which helps because the plot is 1 dimensional. There's nothing else but the primary. Acting was okay. Will give it a B-. Enjoy :)

Positive beautiful film, just when we all need it.
31 July 2019
This a moving film with exceptional performances by all actors involved. The direction and writing also hits good tones and avoids becoming a blow them up action movie. I really enjoyed this film from beginning to end. Chris Evans can act and there's a nice character arch with a few of the main players. Overall I really enjoyed this and will watch it again.

The fact that it's based on saving lives and happened during a really hard time in the Middle East and Africa (late 70's early 80's) makes it more poignant given the state of the world today.

Overall it's an A for me. I will recommend this to my friends and family. Enjoy :)

Great 80's flick
30 July 2019
Just sit back, grab a cold one and enjoy the 80's where no one gave a crap about PC nonsense. This is a good flick. Some minor errors in the main character but it's good. Recommended! 8/10

The Daughter (2015)
4/10
Utterly depressing and overwrought
30 July 2019
The writer of this flick needs to go back to film school. I get it. It's a dark movie. I get all of it, the symbolism, the disjointed direction being "art", etc. but writer: Give me a freaking break. Overall: utter drag, good direction and acting, the writer needs his badge and gun revoked. Puke worthy. That's all. If u want to be depressed watch this movie! That's what the writer was thinking.

I liked it...ignore the haters
26 July 2019
How many Disney employees were paid to write bad reviews? I really enjoyed this show. It has its flaws but it's original, unlike all the Disney crap that I see. The acting is ok, the lead woman is great and of course Selma Blair who u should know is dealing with MS. So haters go watch fast and furious 9. At least Netflix is original.

Enjoyed it
19 July 2019
Not every film has to be The Godfather. This is an enjoyable film that's just exactly what it's supposed to be. Ignore the haters. I personally liked it. Acting was good too. Haters probably work for Disney.

The writers suck
13 July 2019
To be honest I love most Netflix flicks, like I am mother etc. this flick made me angry. I don't want to spoil it but it is what it is. The writing sucks. Actors can't act when their direction and writing are awful. Come on Netflix. U can do better. Dark was so good in German. The writing is worse than a lifetime movie. Get it together and don't feature it as an "original".

Staged Killer (2019)

Trashy fun
7 July 2019
If u like low budget trash this is for u! Predictable and what not it's a "turn your brain off and drink a bottle of wine" movie. The lead actress has some talent. Kinda liked the direction. They clearly cut out 20 minutes to fill the 1:30 hour limit. So there's that. Enjoy!

I can't grasp how films like this end up with zero distribution. This a great movie. Well acted with very little budget and moving. Why doesn't Netflix or someone pick this up or feature it. I saw it on prime. Check out Streaming Scoop on twitter for more finds like this. 9/10. Well done!
