Smoking?
Why is everyone smoking in a spaceship?? Why does the ship look like the inside of a refinery? Why are the windows all cloudy? I like Epps and Walsh, good actors,
Emily in Paris (2020)
Cute show
Don't listen to the snobs bashing this show. It is entertaining and Emily is fun to watch.
Crime Story (1986)
Kind of rough
Just discovered this on Pluto tv. Lots of guest stars on this Chicago based series. I never watched it when it aired.
Gets high reviews, but seems pretty rough to me. Acting not so good. Never was a Farina fan.
Valley of the Boom (2019)
Not very good
Poor try at being "Silicon Valley". Too much jumping between documentary and docudrama. Too many fifth wall attempts to be cute.
Deception (2018)
Hokey
Lead character is not right for show. Lots of bad acting. Unoriginal plot line.
Metropolis (1927)
Probably a great film in 1927
I know this is a classic, and I appreciate what an effort this was in 1927. But watching it now is only for its historical value. We have come a long way in movie making, and this was one of the first baby steps. As entertainment this film is pretty bad, like a Plan 9 from Outer Space bad. I watched it on Netflix and the print quality was very poor. I am not a fan of silent films, the overly dramatic acting is painful. I will admit that it must have blown away audiences in 1927, but this is not 1927. And now I remember why I do not submit comments to IMDb, the ridiculous 10 line requirement drives me nuts! I'm sorry, I can't drag my review out to that many lines.
The Sandlot (1993)
Am I missing something?
Contains Spoiler!! I viewed this movie on the enthusiastic recommendations from friends.
Based on that and the great comments on IMDB, I guess I don't get it. My wife and I both thought this was possibly one of the worst movies we have ever seen. The boys acting was wooden and terrible. The story was ridiculous. Maybe if you were 6 or 7 years old it might be believable, but any adult should find this movie barely watchable.
The main character can't throw a baseball to save his life, until his new friend tells him to throw it like when he delivered newspapers, then he throws like a pro. COME ON! The ragtag group easily defeats an organized little league team? HUH? Babe Ruth appears in the friends dream, but looks like and talks like George Burns? Wasn't Joe Don Baker available? Then the white junkyard owner turns out to be James Earl Jones. And just happens to have a baseball signed by all the Yankees. What a pile of garbage.
Won Ton Ton: The Dog Who Saved Hollywood (1976)
Liked it, but can't find it
I saw this movie years ago, and really liked it. It got bad reviews and disappeared from view. I have not seen it on TV or video stores. Kahn was great and so were the many cameos. Give it a try if you can find it.
