Editing my previous 10 star rating: OK, so now I'm caught up to Season 8, current episode. Like everyone else, I am so upset by the turn this show has taken. Come on... this is leading up to the most unsatisfying ending ever. 1. Cersei did not get the death that her wickedness deserve. On top of that she got to die in the arms of her lover while every good guy died horrible deaths. 2. How in the world did Danearys just flip a switch a turn evil. I wish they had transitioned her character change better. Like when she found out that Jon was a Targyrean, that her true self emerged out of jealousy for the throne. That it was never about saving people, but her real motive was her desire to rule the world. Just to have her suddenly kill innocents overnight after being a savior for the life this show, just doesn't make sense and feels rushed. Just so many other things did not follow in the previous episodes' footsteps. Such a shame... shame... shame....

I know Game of Thrones doesn't need my help with another 10 star rating, but OH MY WORD. I am not easily amused by any series, I get bored easily and barely follow anything too long. With the exception of Shameless and AHS, which I haven't followed anymore either, everything is 'been there, done that, what's new'. I didn't even want to watch this at first because I'm not one for Dungeons and Dragons and Medieval movies, But GOT is unlike anything I've seen before. Just when you think you know what's going to happen next, you have no idea what's coming. Keeps you tensed, at the edge of your seat and you become so enthralled with each and every character. And the dialogues, oh the dialogues are so clever and witty. Very intelligent script. The director and creators really know their stuff with this time period. Just genius.

Good quality cinematography. I like the style and the acting is good. It's just some stuff didn't make sense. It's one of those movies where after watching it for a bit, you set a certain bar for where it should consistently stay at. But some scenes didn't live up to the overall brilliance, such as: 1) the part where she was getting raped, she didn't even put up much of a fight or struggle and he nearly had her pinned down. This is not consistent with the revelation that this girl turns out to be a fighter. 2) She burns her badly torn up impaled skin shut but there are no scars from where the skin broke and she fainted before even sealing her back but when she awoke it was sealed. And how did she manage to do her own backside? They should've thought up a solution for that. Otherwise it would have been great from start to finish.

Nowhere near as good and credible as Unbreakable and Split. The story only took place at this psychiatric facility, very underwhelming. Nothing climactic. I find it very implausible that the 3 main characters are known to have superhuman abilities and are a danger to the public but yet there are virtually only 2 nurses on duty (actually 1 per shift) and no high security measures or guards. The premise was good, just not executed in a credible manner. Especially when it's later revealed that the doctor (woman in charge) knew all along that they are real, so even more questionable as to why the lack of security.

Also, how did Mr. Glass break out of his cell at night, needed to see more ingenuity at work here. There are definitely some lazy writing that can't pass unnoticed but otherwise, watchable.

Honestly, not that original. Seems like a copy of The Happening except no reason as to why it's happening or what's causing it. Seems implausible as well, like how did they survive for 5 years? How did they raise the children, they looked pretty healthy for how the world is ending? If you ever had to raise a baby, you will know it's tough enough as it is with the world being 'OK'. So many questions left unanswered. None of the scenes made me feel tensed because I kept waiting to see what was actually happening. The Happening was better executed and at least that explained what was happening.

Started out with Freak Show. It is my favorite Season. Initially I couldn't watch this series because I found Freak Show too unsettling, but gave it another shot and it's really captivating. Got through the whole season and I am very impressed by the acting, story, and twists and turns. I don't get hooked on series very easily (with the exception of Shameless) because they always start to get boring as I watch on.

After Freak Show, I gave Roanoke a shot but it got boring already, too much skipping back and forth between the interviews and the reenactment. Then I gave Hotel a shot but I couldn't stand Lady Gaga "trying" to be scary or intimidating. Sorry, I like her but she is just not scary. She's too stagey... I couldn't take her seriously. She just acted like Lady Gaga in one of her videos. Jessica Lange was a phenomenal and more believable lead villain.

Watched Asylum and it was good also with some twists, but Freak Show was still better in my opinion. Coven was not scary at all but watchable. I still liked the story and the acting. Lastly I ended with Murder House. It was a little disappointing, and some stuff I don't get. Like why is Moira the only ghost that aged. And why did some ghosts remain in their deadly looking state when they returned but yet when Vivien died, she was a cleaned-up ghost? Seemed like some get to be the good ghosts and some didn't have that choice or knew they were even dead. And why was Tate so strong at times, but yet when he was chased down by his victims they beat the heck out of him? So many things didn't make sense to me. Seems like it was written to please the viewers and didn't stay true to its element. Other than Murder House, the other 3 seasons were well done and thought out.

I wish there was a zero star for this movie. I've seen many bad movies but never to the point of wanting to walk out of the theater. I was with some friends and they were repulsed as well but said they paid for it so might as well suffer through it. Another girl next to me was laid asleep on her boyfriend.

This was advertised as a psychological ghost thriller, but the actual movie is far from it. It's more of a slasher flick but with very young kids. What disturbed person conjured up this gory mess with very young kids performing gruesome acts towards their family members? A great message for kids (sarcasm). No substance, poor acting, and I will never get my time or money back. Awful.
