American Mummy (2014)
Don't waste your time
This is the worst movie I have ever seen. I dosed off 4 times within the first 30 minutes. Everything sucked in this movie, the acting, the story-line, the direction, the editing and even the 3D sucked.
1) Story-line = terrible 0/5 (very difficult to follow the story, continued to jump around not leading into the next screen)
2) Acting = terrible 0/5 (a Russian professor with the worst Russian accent ever just to name one)
3) Video = extremely bad (many of the shots were not considered for 3D presentation
4) 3D = sub-par (lots of ghosting over an high-send Sony active 3D display)
5) Audio = 1/5 (nothing to write home to mom about)
6) Flow of events = 0/5 (worst ever)
7) Editing = 0/5 (wonder if the editor graduated from high school)
8) Direction = 0/5 (director should be banished from the studio lots and forbidden to make any further movies, including documentaries.
Do yourself a favorite. Won't waste your valuable time on this crud.
Gods of Egypt (2016)
After reading the reviews, I thought I was going to waste my time, but...
My expectations were clouded by other reviews because there were so much downsizing this movie, I even postpone my trip to the theater to see if this was a razor's edge or if it was dull as a old beat up sword. Long story short, I must admit, I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. The storyline was very well put together. A lot of thought went into this movie and that includes the 3D and special effects. I remember reading about the Gods when I was very young. My parents brought home books that told stories of Gods and Goddesses. So naturally, I was all hyped up about this movie. I can say with this is one of those guilty pleasures of a movie and I plan on watching again and again. I really enjoyed this movie. I am in hopes that this movie will have a sequel with the same level of intelligence, stamina, 3D and special effects to bring the characters to life on the big screen. I gave it an 8 because there were a few places where the story sort of got off track, but not a deal breaker in my book. If you enjoy fantasy and have a thing for Egypt, then this movie may be right up your alley. Just one question, when is the blu-ray going to be released. Sign me up.
Star Trek: Renegades (2015)
Not the Star Trek we were expecting
Lots of good points and had lots of good potential, but left me feeling the void because, simply said, this one is not the Star Trek I was expecting. I have read many articles on FaceBook about Star Trek Renegades and each one had left me with the impression, the fans were true to have made this one become possible. So I was expecting a lot more than was delivered.
Acting: 3/10 Some acting was good, but most of it wasn't. Tim Russ was the director. Mr. Russ should have asked for help from Johnathan Frakes. There were parts of the movie that clearly jumped around and cause confusion and a blank in the train of thought during the playback.
Video: 9/10 The movie has great video quality. The darks were just right and colors were correct. However, speaking of Admiral Chekov's uniform, I'm thinking it was made for a dish washer, because the sleeves were way too short. Sort of had reminded me of high waters pants, if you know what I mean.
Audio: 5/10 The audio channels were not as distinctive as one would expect.
Final thoughts: Would I watch the next episode of Star Trek Renegades? I believe the first episode is a good start. I am with high hopes the series will become better and stronger as they continue to be produced.
Humans (2015)
Lots of promise if the momentum continues
There are several actors that miss the beat, but yet, the storyline continues to keep me intrigued to see what happens in the second season. The first few episodes really was very good because of the human interaction with the machines. These machines that are conscience depend on each other, but not in a sense that you and I would.
So far, I like the women robots, but the males fall short of being a rock solid supporting cast member. Perhaps with a bit of good direction, the male members will catch up.
The show should be rated R because there is lots and lots of events that could be closer to real life. The language should be street, especially from the humans. The machines, it would be understandable since they are learning. As the show progresses, the language should develop for the machines. In real life situations, when acting our sexual contents, the show should stick true to the story at hand.
I give the show 8/10. Good storyline and some of the acting isn't bad.
