Wu-Tang: An American Saga: Liquid Swords (2023)
Disappointed. My favourite Solo Wu album
This is my favourite non group Wu album. The 3 episodes in this season, Dirty, Rae and Gza although had their own merits and moved the story forwards in a non direct way, also slowed the flow. For a group know for their flow, this was disappointing. There is so much more they could be telling now, Deck getting his deal and album off the ground for one and where has Meth been this season? I love the ideas behind these but they've just distracted from the last few episodes of an amazing 3 seasons. I know this is the last of the 3 specials but I really hope the last episodes really pull the story back.
The Undoing: The Bloody Truth (2020)
Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Catch 22.
A fine ending to an interesting and at times gripping drama. Strong performances throughout and great to see Hugh Grant stepping outside what you may consider his comfort zone. So there was no huge twist, (the guy that looked like he did it, did it!) but perhaps that was the twist if you need a twist. We are always looking for twists so perhaps this was the twist on the viewer, the suprise ending we needed for once. The final car chase and helicopter sequence really wasn't needed I'm sure they could have come up with a more fitting simplified ending, perhaps just with the son and father having a heart to heart somewhere that wasn't a death defying chase through red lights. But in the end why not have the guy that looked like he did it. Do it?
