Top Gun: Maverick (2022)
Meh Story, great action
Not much to say here really, the action and visuals are stunning, alone for that you should go and watch it in cinemas. If your really only here for a good story you should skip this one. Its story was, for me at least, forgetable and boring. The action clearly came first, which isin´t a bad thing in this case.
Shameless: Pilot (2011)
A poorly made Pilot with little the offer aside from stupid sex jokes.
A pilot is arugably the most important episode of any Show, seeing how its supposed to lead a new viewer into the story and get them to keep watching. This episode had the opposite effect.
The first red flag came in the form of some good old Exposition introducing the main characters. Getting to know the characters natrually is overrated anyway, right?
Talking about introductions i have to talk about the pacing of this episode. It just drops way to many new characters and plots on you all to once. You can´t properly introduce such a big cast in just one episode! It made this episode feel messy and unfocused. I couldn´t tell you one character trait for most of the characters (and thats not because i didin´t pay attention).
The jokes are another topic alltogether. Sure, humor is subjective and all but if most jokes are sex based its gets boring real quick, most of the sex jokes weren´t even good in my opinion.
Maybe the rest of the show is a masterpiece but after this dumbster fire i sure as heck don´t have to will to find that out.
