The Volcano: Rescue from Whakaari (2022)
Cultural difference is on show here
Aussies/Kiwi survivors: it's nature, it happens. Horrible, but you can't blame anyone
American survivors: who can we line up legally to blame.
What happen is tragic, but you knowingly go on an island with an active Volcano, you take that risk. Just shows an absolute difference in culture between the Americans and Australasian people, for example saying..
"had i been told the risks prior I wouldn't have gone" that is silly, if you call yourself scientific people and go on an island with an active Volcano how do you not know the risks?
The stories of the individuals were very powerful (brother and grandmother of the guides and the female guide). The aussie kid Jesse, wow serious strength.
The running time is maybe 30 to 40 minutes to long. As some parts of the documentary felt touristy, and the comment at the end of the documentary that no one has yet accepted responsibility... that was uncalled for and an ugly thing to say, the producers should be ashamed of themselves for putting that in.
Ms. Marvel (2022)
Kids show, no worse or better than previous marvel series in the last couple of years
You don't require brain power for this, there not much of story or plot, just a bunch of kids trying to be witty. So I'm definitely not the target audience, but would've been nice if it was atleast entertaining.
Probably weaker than most of the very poor recent marvel series. Hope the take lessons from something like the Daredevil series and stop messing their franchise up that took a decade to build.
