Best of Stand-Up 2022 (2022)
Largely unfunny
This is a series of clips from several comedians. The hand picked clips are really not funny. It seems like this was a covid vaccine promotion. I find it hard to believe that Netflix couldn't find better content. I hope that whoever is reading this takes my advise and passes. Don't waste your time with this awful compilation of flat jokes and vaccine promotion. On the plus side, it wasn't too political, just enough to be annoying. Netflix should take down whatever this is supposed to be because time is precious. I could have watched something genuinely funny but instead I spent my time yawning.
Barbarians (2020)
Good watch!
Great cast and acting. This series is based on a true story and does not rely on nudity or gore to keep the viewer interested... But there is a little bit. I watched the dubbed English version (originally German) and it's hard to notice except that the sound is slightly off. I like that the Romans actual speak latin, and the latin is not dubbed. The Germanic culture seems to be lacking but that may be intentional to make the Romans appear even more menacing. It's a well rounded show and I look forward to season 3. I hope that it stays true to history without adding ridiculous support characters.
Locke (2013)
If I saw this in a theater...
Tom Hardy and the voice actors were brilliant. BUT, if I were to see this film in a theater I'd be very upset.
A simple description of this movie is Tom Hardy driving and taking on speaker phone trying to solve problems.
The Batman (2022)
Slow burn
Extra star for the great music! Robert Pattinson would be better suited for a Batman Beyond adaptation with Ben being the grumpy old man... Christian Bale was the best modern batman.
It's a good slow burning, smart, dark, and gritty movie. I'd watch it again.
Resident Evil (2002)
Terrible graphics great music
I love the 90's and early 2000's hard rock, Slipknot, Marilyn Manson, Adema, Fear Factory, etc. The suspense is great and the cg is wonderfully awful (2002). Milla Jovovich and the music keep the film moving.
Aftermath (2017)
It wasn't bad...
A great watch if you're feeling too happy and need to be brought down several notches. It had a bit of drama, splash of action and a dash of intensity... Like warm watered down soda just before it goes flat.
The Matrix Resurrections (2021)
Good story poor delivery
The grit, darkness, and energy are missing. TMR is quite literally a shell of its former self. The film leans heavily on cut scenes from the previous movies to stay interesting. In addition, the recasting of some characters is just terrible (Jonathan Geoff???). Despite this, I did enjoy the direction of the story.
It's like a good carbonated beverage but flat.
Reminiscence (2021)
An ok movie
Think of a lower technology version of the movie Inception but with much less action. There was just enough plot and mystery to keep me mostly awake.
I recommend this movie if there's nothing else to watch and you like a sad romantic.
Upgrade (2018)
Very Entertaining!
I started watching this movie thinking it's just another generic and predictable, "They killed his family" revenge film... I was very wrong and pleasantly surprised. Highlights are: Suspense, fight scenes, car chases, and great carnage. With only a few slight plot holes, I highly recommended it.
