Frasier (2023)
3 Episodes in
I'm a huge Frasier fan and I came into this series with high hopes. So far I am very pleased with Kelsey Grammar's performance. The rest of the cast just doesn't feel quite as genuine. I'm hoping they will develop more chemistry on screen as the season progresses. My biggest complaint would be how outlandish and goofy the "subtle" jokes are. It just feels too forced to be perceived as authentic interaction between the characters. However the intentionally awkward and bizarre situations suffer from the same problem, they feel much too over the top. All criticism aside, it's still a decent show.
Beneath the Darkness (2011)
Do not watch!!!
First let me say I love Dennis Quaid and just about every movie I've seen him in. This movie however totally dropped the ball. Basically, the first half of the movie had a very bizarre assortment of scenes thrown together, only half of which actually tied into the plot. Not mention the transition of the scenes also made it difficult to understand. For instance, one moment you would jump from one time to another, then you'd suddenly jump from one reality to another. Regardless, that is not my biggest complaint of this movie. The most obvious flaw comes after you get past the fluctuation of scenes that fail to follow any chronological or reasonable order. Even an amateur in filming would know the single most important part of motion picture is to have a picture. The second half of the movie was filmed in the dark and I mean IN THE DARK! I kid you not, in most action scenes you simply couldn't see anything. It was like I was suddenly given the understanding of what it was like for Ray Charles to watch a movie. After it was over, my friend turned off the TV and when I saw the blank screen, I thought we had began watching a sequel!
