The Grinder (2015–2016)
8/10
Super funny over the top witty and very enjoyable
30 September 2015
I loved this show so much starting from the acting to the superbly written script. The concept overall is unique to the usual sitcom world of 5 friends or such stuff which is very refreshing (it being the super famous actor lawyer and his little brother and father who are real lawyers and how them and the entire family play out life). Also the script is actually funny and is hyper complemented by the acting and the excitement and pace of the shooting and directing made for a very enjoyable pilot. I highly recommend you watch the pilot you will like if you are tired of sitcoms with drama monologues this one is just pure funny. Loved it fox with this & Brooklyn nine-nine and empire you are crushing. Also big kudos to the directing as it is setting a very brilliant manner.

Visions (II) (2015)
9/10
A super great thriller /Horror that is utterly loud and enjoyable
11 September 2015
i do not wish to get into deep details of the movie because it is worth the enjoyable watch, but overall it is a very well written movie that goes unexpected i. A really GOOOOOD way. The overall concept starts as a horror with remarkable editing and the amazing sound effect of super silence to BooM which will freak you out even if you try not to,, after that it flows into a really interesting thriller that ends in a pretty satisfying manner, doesnot go crazy stupid or boring at the end , which for this genre is the best way to present a thriller&horror story.

If you are a horror or thriller fan you will definitely love it.

Wat to expect is ull be scared , entertained and get a compelling non nonsense set storyline.

If you are a movie geek and super picky it will be a 7.5/10 movie I gave it a 9 because I genuinely enjoyed a thriller/horror which for a long time now everything being released was just boring. Go watch ull certainly not regret it. Highly recommended

From the pilot seems too repetitive - another csi style show
15 August 2015
From the concept , setup and style of script it is basically a guy (One of the twins) of the original movie , is a psychic helping a cop to stop murders (Rings any bells of other shows same setup, literally all the CSI style shows, with too much less originality, unlike almost human).

The future visuals of it are not bad , but yet again Almost Human's was way way better.

I really really hope that Spielberg's company does focus groups and figures out that lack of original concepts and CSI style new murder mystery every episode rather than a new wholesome innovative story is not what people want, there is too too much of that, and as a Fox production (Cable) it will not be attainable rating wise for it to survive.

I hope any of the people responsible for the show scripts, set up an innovative concept that is a wholesome interesting catching story rather than a CSI mini case that will always get solved every time style

Believe (2014)
9/10
an extremely high quality TV show's pilot,, salutes to ABC
13 March 2014
Now for a start I hardly give TV shows 10 or 9 from a pilot,, like ever but for this TV show it ,, was really really good from a lot of aspects, starting from the storytelling aspect and the script,, they were able to provide a whole grasp of a lot of really interesting concepts,, but most importantly they covered in a short time in the pilot and professionally delivered it so that you don't feel rushed into understanding. Also the way the script is written makes every scene really interesting, obviously I don't want to relate to any exact scenes so that I don't burn something, but it has the whole fantasy package. moving on to the camera use , it is super impressive too especially in the fast movement scenes,, it is not too low or too broad , and smooth shooting of wide places and movement between characters. Acting Wise the girl is really impressive and didnot feel immature,, and the rest of the cast were quite good,, just killer girl was a little off( Spooky! :p) . really recommend it for everyone just watch the pilot ,, sure you'll get interested

The Wrong Mans (2013–2014)
8/10
A very impressive start
2 October 2013
The series pilot was actually pretty good. It was set within a very light weight British environment. I was really attracted obviously to the storyline which is about the two main characters mystery finding, also the camera use was very impressive and all the actors seemed fine for the time being. Also the way the story is being set in the pilot is very professional not too fast so that you would be like 'what just happened' neither too slow to be really boring. Plus it is a BBC production so expect a great set and loads of spending everywhere, definitely worth a try if you like mystery sitcoms. At least it was that good for me.

Chosen (2013–2014)
10/10
To All haters it is pretty good if....
2 March 2013
Many reviews on the show say it is bad not working accordingly and just hate all over it I'll make it as simple as that there is two reasons to watch the show.

1- If You're a fan of Milo Ventimiglia from heroes then U'll love the damn thing so much.

2- Secondly, if u want a change and a hint of adrenaline rush from excitement then this is the show for u If u are someone who watches the show just to find the extreme technicalities and love shows with super sleek scripts and classic editing and directing well I can't imagine why did u even come to this review :p (Joking).

Overall, It is a very short mini series each episode is like 20min , so not a lot of your time is wasted and as to me no time was wasted on this fine piece from crackle with that hint of excitement and adrenaline refresh, is definitely not a regret.

Youssef :)
