Black Adam (2022)
Watch if you want to be entertained...
This is a super hero movie, plain and simple.
Filled with lots of action, nice CGI, and a fairly decent script.
Be forewarned, this is not a Mensa sponsored movie so do not expect to be blown away by superior acting, or a great storyline with a mind-blowing twist. Turn off the brain, and just enjoy the special effects and snarky comments.
Why do I give it 7 stars, let me explain, because I need 200 more characters to get this submitted. 5 stars would go to a watchable movie, but no real urge to finish. 10 is reserved for classics like Godfather 1 &2, Shawshank Redemption, and Sound of Music. This entertained me.
In a Valley of Violence (2016)
Wow, just wow...not good
A previous review said the only good acting was from the dog.
I don't even think the dog did that good of a job.
This movie was plain bad, and not funny bad, just plain bad.
Acting was poor, script was poor, storyline was poor, and the action was poor.
Also, I was trying to make this review quick and to the point without spoilers, so trying to fill the rest of this review with gibberish seems a bit non-sensical. But here goes... Ever gone to a burger joint, and all you want is a decent burger, and they F it up. This is what that is in terms of movies. All I want is a bit of entertainment...but nope, this movie fails to deliver even an ounce of enjoyment.
The Prom (2020)
Movie that is great for the WHOLE FAMILY
The acting wasn't the best, but since it is a musical, does not matter so much.
The songs were great, the singing was pretty good, and the message in general was spot on.
Only drawback is the "generalization" of a small midwest town. The movie's theme was to "open the mind," but did its self a disservice by stereotyping what the midwest is like...
Miracle in Cell No. 7 (2019)
Not bad for a remake
The original Korean version was very good, this adaptation was very okay.
Differences in story-line make this somewhat different, just doesn't pull at your heart the way the original does.
Still worth watching while stuck at home.
The Trials of Gabriel Fernandez (2020)
Very well put together documentary
Sad, heartbreaking, gut wrenching, angry, mad....
All these words are emotions you will feel watching this.
But please keep in mind, if you are just a relative, by law you cannot just take the child without the mother's permission, it is called kidnapping.
That being said, there were numerous points of failures by many individuals that could have prevented this tragedy.
I Am Not Okay with This (2020)
Great Netflix series
Has a Stranger Things feel to it, but fun super hero type series.
Episodes are short and sweet, fun to watch, and the acting is pretty good (not the greatest though).
Excited about Season 2.
Dracula (2020)
Worth watching
Fine, the 3rd episode wasn't the best, but at least there was closure.
Ep. 1 & 2 are good, the 3rd is meh.
Riot (2015)
Something to do while doing your taxes...
Best part of this movie was Chuck trying to do a Russian accent...the longer he has to talk the more it goes leans towards Colombian, very funny.
You could honestly miss large chunks of the movie and still know what is going on.
Not good, but not bad either.
6 Underground (2019)
Fun movie
Fun action packed movie.
Visual and effects were pretty good.
Plot and acting was meh.
Eli (2019)
Good, but not GREAT
It will keep you entertained.
Storyline is good.
Acting is good.
Ending is good.
Overall just a good movie...but not GREAT!
Daybreak (2019)
Fun and Entertaining
Binge-worthy...YES!
Fun storyline...YES!
Great acting...somewhat.
Give it a chance.
The I-Land (2019)
I liked it...
Not the best acting, effects are just ok, but the story line sells it for me.
I was entertained about 70% of the time. At least the other 30% was not commercials.
Head Count (2018)
Decent
Entertaining.
Good story line, ok acting, and ok effects.
I Am Mother (2019)
Fun to watch, hope there is a sequel
Great story-line (has been done before), solid acting, and hoping there is a sequel.
Minor plot holes and flaws, but overall a fun movie to watch.
The Perfection (2018)
Entertaining
Ok, so with HULU, Netflix, Amazon Prime, HBO, Showtime, and all the others puking up show after show and movie after movie this is just another one of those.
Yes, there may be some plot holes, and yes some of the acting is just "ok."
But the movie in its entirety is entertaining.
The Society (2019)
Good, but not great
Fun to watch...
Very interesting storyline, so-so execution, and decent acting for a bunch of teens.
Ah-ga-ssi (2016)
Like porn for a movie aficionado
This is not Black Panther, this is not Pitch Perfect, and this is not an American Sniper.
THIS IS a superbly acted, erotic drama with enough twists and turns to keep you at the edge of your seat.
Entertaining!!!
The OA (2016)
whOA!
Every episode is either good or great. Which makes these 2 seasons binge-worthy. BUT, each episode is done well enough that by 2am, you can confidently go to sleep knowing the episodes you have not watched will still be good to great the next day.
Keep an open mind, the dynamics between art and the supernatural in this show have rarely been attempted and successfully pulled off....ENJOY!!!
The Umbrella Academy (2019)
Something different that DC and MCU
Never had a chance to give Dark Horse Comics a try in my youth, but very refreshing to see this series I had heard so many good things about done so well.
Acting is solid, storyline is great, special effects are not too over the wall, and the fact that another season is in the works has me excited.
Try if you want to be entertained!!!
Love, Death & Robots (2019)
Bang for your Buck
This is why I pay for Netflix! Sci-fi at its best.
Vignettes of wonderful, but short stories (most are animated). Each one short enough to satisfy, but leaving us hungry for more.
NSFW, and definitely should not be watched with the little ones. But perfect for binging.
Replicas (2018)
Messy, but still entertaining!
More Pot Holes that the GW Parkway...wait I meant plot holes.
But I was entertained. Keanu acted in similar Keanu fashion, and the story line screams this movie was supposed to be better. I truly believe my interest was vested in if they would ever address some glaring flaws.
Try it just to be entertained and befuddled at the same time.
Alien Warfare (2019)
Perfect bedtime movie...
In all honestly I stretched this movie over 4 nights. Each night it would peacefully lull me to sleep.
Story line is not complicated so easy to pick up from anywhere in the movie as long as you know the basic plot summary. Acting is par, regardless of what other reviewers say. Special effects are pretty bad, but bad in a funny way.
Give it a try if you have nothing else going on.
Kim's Convenience (2016)
TOO MUCH English
Grew up similar to this, we did dry cleaning and laundromat, our closest family friends did the Mom and Pop grocery store next to us. LOVE the premise, just way too much english being spoken. Would've have felt more genuine with some more korean sprinkled in.
All in all, wholesome fun, good acting, and makes you smile.
All Light Will End (2018)
Barely watchable...
The movie is not good, but the laughable errors in the story line make it funny enough to keep watching...
Kingdom (2019)
Craving the next season!!!
It reminds me of watching historical korean dramas with my parents as a child and then BAM here come some zombies...
