Love 101 (2020–2021)
10/10
Friendship - Romance - Love & Hate
29 August 2023
I am more and more surprised by Turkish series, they have that special touch to make it unique and human. This is a story of friendship, romance, love & hate, it is a story a little bit different, it is about the bullies' perspective. At the beginning you might hate them but you start understanding them and loving them somehow. This series is for all ages, no sex scenes needed nor drugs. I watched the 2 seasons in about 2 weeks and those were like a 2-week travel. It tells a few different items such as family, love, drama, romance and friendship. I finished watching it today and God, I will miss those kids!

Into the Dark: Crawlers (2020)
Season 2, Episode 6
4/10
Average - bad
18 April 2023
Imagine a 12-pages alien comic book for teenagers that you could read in just 10 minutes a Sunday in a beach, it is what this movie is but converted to 1,30hour movie. Nothing special, low budget, really average, watchable but because the director cleverly added a Voice-Off which makes you believe "there will be more" and "more" and "more", but the movie keeps always at the same level, it is predictable and don't expect any Alien in CGI, I was very disappointed. Don't expect anything clever or serious, this movie is more focused in teenagers that maybe have never watched an "alien" movie before, in that case, just in that case they maybe "liked it".

Waste of time
9 September 2022
If you are a zombie movie's fan please stay away from this movie, ...it is not even a movie, I really don't know what I've just watched, this thing doesn't make any sense. The movie thinks it is a Coke but it is a Pepsi, thinks it is The Simpsons but it is Family Guy, or kind of.... The writers might think farts are funny but they aren't, they are just disgusting. Every single character is irritating. I've only watched this movie because of some good reviews but it was a very bad idea. This attempt of movie might be funny for 12 YO kids only, and I'm not too sure about that. IMDB wants me to write 600 characters but I don't know what else to write, I've said it all already.

Persuasion (I) (2022)
3/10
Not as good as expected
22 July 2022
If you want a precise perception of this movie, mix up Pride & Prejudice with Bridgerton (Season 1), mix well, now take out all the interesting parts, ...there you go. The casting is not good either, like a 'C' category cast. The Captain always looks lazy and sleepy, you are expecting he is going to trip over a rock in any minute. And not to mention the ending, it was abrupt, like no more money for the filming. Bad, bad, too bad.

Nothing unseen before
14 July 2022
The acting is not bad, the movie is pretty refreshing just to pass the time by, but there is nothing new here or unseen before. Generic love story.

Choose or Die (2022)
1/10
Please pass!
21 May 2022
This is by far one of the worst 2022 "horror" movie I watched this year so far. Terrible acting. It is a movie that maybe 12 YO kids might enjoy, forget if you pass that age. I stopped at the minute 30 and then fast-forward, just to only find it get worse and worse. Yes, Netflix did it again with their particular express-refilling-movies, thanks Naaaahtflix.

Reminiscence (2021)

You hate it or love it.
14 May 2022
The movie started off promising, like those movies you like to watch, but after the 20 or 30 minutes the movie turned into kind of movies for sleeping in a flight or bus. :D I really didn't want to know where that girl have gone, so here we have a problem for the director. I ended up watching it fast-forward and I'm glad I did it.

Leatherface (2017)
7/10
Not really great but enjoyable
9 May 2022
This movie is in the podium of one of the less good franchises, but the story is enjoyable. I have to say that the director tricked me pretty well, well played! (you will know what I'm talking about after you watch the movie). The acting is good and the gore scenes are well done. If you don't know or have watched any of the TCM franchises you will enjoy this movie aswell, because apart from telling the Leatherface's story it is a good film by its own.

Horrible - light horror franchise
9 May 2022
Horrible franchise, the worst of all of them. There is no good gore scenes at all, all the actors are overacted, like they tried too hard to look psychopaths etc, the killings are so simple aswell. I felt that the director thought that by having a good franchise's title the movie is gonna be made by itself, wrong. I was absolutely disappointed, even more because the night before I watched TCM: The Beginning which is extremely gore and much richer in content.

100% horror
7 May 2022
When you have a few years watching Netflix with its gradual degradation without realizing it of the word MOVIE, and you watch a movie like this is like refreshing your mind of what a TRUE HORROR MOVIE IS. I watched a few of this TTCM franchising and this is one of the best. 100% retro horror.

Argentinian Culture
6 May 2022
Those 2 main actors (Brandoni and Francella) have a particular chemistry well-know in Argentina that works well for this movie, but if you are from another country you mind find this movie boring, slow and non-sense, you are aware now. ;) The movie is not great, they have worked in better films, it is just a tale of 2 big friends, you might forget this movie by tomorrow. Beautiful landscapes at the end.

The Intruder (I) (2019)
6/10
Not great
4 May 2022
I will try to describe this movie in 1 word: "predictable-basic-lowbudget-express-Netflix-movie". It is pretty obvious Netflix is using the popularity of Michael Ealy and the main reason you can keep watching this movie, but if he goes on working for movies like this his reputation will be collapsed, don't play with fire Netflix.

Average with a plus *
4 May 2022
I had low expectations for a movie with a group of girls vs sharks, but I was just a bit wrong. I have to say that the movie is more decent and solid that those most "Ocean vs Shark" movies. The CGI is also acceptable. And the last minutes at the ending are epic, that made me add 1 more star as a gift for the director.

Avoid it...
4 May 2022
Avoid it, unless you like cheap humor. This movie is not funny, just "weird" and cheesy. Not even think it will be a good idea watching it with your mum.

The Trip (2021)
8/10
Unexpectable GOOD
1 May 2022
This movie reminds me those kind of British gore movies, the good ones. The only I didn't like was the scatology parts, experienced directors left that in the past, only a few inexperienced countries still remains using that, but it is NOT funny anymore, maybe it was in the 80's. Good movie for a Saturday night and an ice-cream in your hands.

Downsizing (2017)

Trailed & Netflix cheated me, this movie is not funny
15 April 2022
If your plan is keeping this movie for that unforgettable Saturday night of fun then forget about it. The movie starts out promising the first 25 minutes then it is like there is another movie in front of you, slow, boring and it turns into a social drama. I wanna "thank" Netflix that features this movie as a "Comedy". The ending is also a bit lame and naif, 2.15 hours wasted.

Really?
26 March 2022
How come we came from Dog Day Afternoon to this SH...??? Thank you Netflix.

Overacting, bad acting, bad plot, bad everything. In a moment this 'movie attempt' looked more like a theatrical show made by high school kids. It was a nice try that the musician did his best in trying this movie look dramatic and intense, it was not, the music was the only good thing, that's why my 3 stars. You can even watch this movie in fast-forward and you won't miss anything and you will get the plot anyway.

Pure retro horror
22 February 2022
Hahaha, brilliant. Great acting, simple, to the point. No CGI, no computer Fx's, no hundred of extras, it was not needed, it is just a simple plot but very eye catching.

Great
6 January 2022
I'm in episode 24, so far so good, the novel has different collateral stories but are also connected each other so you never get bored and the story flows naturally. The acting is really good and the casting is excellent. I can't remember any story that dig so deep in my heart, I want to get inside the TV to give a big hug to Gaviota and her mum, Gaviota signing is also very nice, her voice is very soft and warm. I really understand Sebastian, I'm deeply in love with Gaviota too, and everything is so unfair so far with them that I wish I could fast forward the novel to get the end as soon as possible, but in the other hand I don't want this novel ends up, it is really great. Congratulations Colombia and thank you for this great story.

Rubbish
4 January 2022
Cliché, slow, boring, lazy plot, low budget, director of this movie might think that adding strong sudden noises means 'a scary movie', wrong. Absolutely rubbish, this movie is overrated.

Crawl (I) (2019)
9/10
Intense and dramatic
23 December 2021
The movie is very intense and very well produced, only Americans could make this kind of film, you don't know what is real and what is CGI, you think that all is real. I take my hat off the directors and producers, you have to have a real conviction, determination and knowledge to produce a film like this, with wind and water scenarios, and want to add an honorable recognition to the actors, having to act with water and wind, and a special mention to their dog that also did a very good job. It is those kind of movies you should keep for Friday or Saturday night and order 500g of ice-cream!!

Us (II) (2019)
4/10
Good potential, badly executed
19 December 2021
It is those kind of movies that starts out good but in the moment of true (about half of the movie) it was a deception, I don't really know how to describe those clones: a weird zombies or funny danger people, maybe both. To me, Us, looks more a satire movie of a good horror movie than the original movie, those clones looks so ridiculous, not even mention the way they communicate each other, just annoying but in the wrong way, this could have been a good movie but they ruined it all with the performance/execution, in fact it was a turn off for me and wanted it to finish!, the director also wanted to add a little bit of "retro 80's style" to it using those violoncellos in the background, but didn't work. They tried to recreate in some way "Get Out" style movie but was in vain. If I were the director I would have given those clones a more Mike Myers's style (Halloween), but they were just bizarre and even funny, I wasn't scared at all but disappointed. Wasted potential.

The Guilty (2021)
6/10
Overrated
5 October 2021
This movie is not good at all, it is overrated, the reason that this movie gets you hanged on the sit watching it is debatable, because that reason is that you are expecting a good twist, which never comes, so that's why it is a meeehhhh. This movie tricked me because I expected a clever ending, but it is just a lazy plot.

Less is more
5 October 2021
I was surprised by this movie, I'm the guy that doesn't scare too much, probably nothing, but this movie gave me goosebumps in some occasions. The scenes are a bit far away from the Hollywood movies, that was the key. The director didn't needed lot of explosions, people terrified looking at a Devil spiting fire in the sky etc, they just made it simple, and simplicity gives more naturalness, more naturalness gives more credibility, and more credibility gives more impact. It all point there would be a part 2, well done.

Swwwweeeettttt
30 September 2021
Nice retro horror style movie. The fighting scene inside the police station was amazing, I never seen anything like that before, I repeated it almost 10 times because I couldn't believe what I was watching, the production was magnificent, those seconds where the beast makes his movements maybe took hundreds of hours to the producers and CGI technicians, well done. The movie is not bad, the ending was a bit weak but it worth to watch. 8 out of 10.
