Ford v Ferrari (2019)
Depressing
After finishing it, I felt unresolved and now one/two weeks later can finally put into worlds why. I found this movie and the story behind it super depressing - it was basically your own team constantly stabbing you in the back while making history for them, in the end only your opponent acknowledging your achievements, while your team have successfully ruined your victory...and then you die.
The "friend"/boss was constantly doing too little too late, many times being complicit in the - really was a study of human nature and human selfishness.
Was the "villain" guy someone's son or just that good at kissing ass because the amount of times he managed to make a comeback was just ridiculous??

Loved the cat!
Good movie, the adventure was fun. Also, good the brother was not dead after all - felt like such a lost opportunity when he was 'pronounced' dead.
Loved the cat so much - even had lines...
Van Helsing (2016)
Really loved the series but for the last season
Somehow the last season was disappointing and weird with the whole president angle. Is it that easy to convert people to one's cause? Just made no sense. Could have been better... For all 4 seasons the show was 10 stars for me but this fifth season lowers it to 7.
High Strung (2016)
Classic Underdog Story with 'Refreshments'!!!
This was a surprisingly interesting movie with beautiful dancing and music playing, which (music playing) I have been solely missing in other such movies. It is the classic underdog story but with new and fresh moments. The violin was amazing and the movie's ballet-oriented dancing delightful and strong. Of course the boy-meets-girl-and-they-fall-in-love cliché was present but no major "tragedy" between the main leads was portrayed right before 'the decisive moment', and that was both refreshing and much appreciated. Additionally, there was no big drama around joining the competition and the crew did not fight.
The final dance was astonishing, so beautiful for both the eyes and the ears, I was at a loss of words!!!
Fifty Shades of Grey (2015)
The Story Line is just not that Amazing
Some people have written that "the acting was as if in a porn movie". I don't share the opinion - the acting and actors were good. The story line is not that interesting and and writing - often laughable. I have read many books from that life style and don't get how that series in particular is a multi- million bestseller. This movie reminds me greatly of "Twilight" (not in a good way), just in BDSM. She is just so (I cannot even find that word) "uneducated" - time whole time Christian was courting her, she couldn't even muster the courage to research, the practices she obliviously did not know anything about. Through the whole movie (and probably book) everything was pretty tame but then she challenged him to do his worst - and got whipped, literally, which was still probably not his worst considering there were canes in sight. I have started reading the book but am not sure if I can actually read the whole thing. Considering the bad writing, the movie was good.
Sugarless (2012)
Amazing TV Show
The Show is great, I love all the characters (very interesting) and each one has something to give to the story. The motif of never giving up because no matter what, the day of victory will come, is a theme and motivation, even in 'real' life. Hope there is a second season and can't wait...
P.S. I am really wondering who the new 'TOP' will be, but I am more included to think, it will be 'Shiiba' because he is so determined, he cannot lose in the end. The other three are very skilled fighters but they seem to lack his determination and even if Shiiba did not try to be, in the end he is their leader and 'inspiration'.
