Bull (2016)
Lost it's way and the plot.
This show has seriously gone down hill in a hurry. Once it was about defending the innocent. Clients who were being railroaded or set up or just didn't have a good alibi. Now it is about defending the guilty, the clearly guilty. Because it's social justice, because it feels good? Because the person you gunned down in the street was bad and had it coming? Because, you grew up poor and couldn't afford the fancy education? I get it, it's in the news. We've given up on the rule of law in America and now it's just about feelings and your position on the oppression olympics hierarchy. Pathetic hollywood, you are become pathetic.
Bull: Jury Duty (2018)
2 stars for a few humorous moments
So, this show has gone from being about defending people who are innocent and facing tough prosecution, to helping people get away with clearly breaking the law. Apparently it is now perfectly fine to clearly break the law if you have good intentions, or your heart is in the right place, or you were just doling out some much needed vigilante justice. It's just time served and good behavior for gunning someone down in the street. Nice. Oh, and you can just without a license practice law, medicine or whatever else. Things that require a rigorous and sometimes expense education. It's all fine until/unless you lose a case, or a patient. Good to know. I've always wanted to be an airline pilot. Guess I get my self a nice suit and pilot hat and just start flying planes. It'll be fine, I've spent 30 minutes behind the controls of a two seater airplane and there is always a co-pilot. What could possibly go wrong?
The Predator (2018)
Great, if you like f-bombs and ludicrous situations.
'OMG, we are killing our planet with global warming and the predators are going to take over. Yeah, that is the premise of this trash festival. Just another weak salvo from the global alarmist profiteers.
This sorry excuse for a predator movie starts off lame, with a huge gaff in the wrecked ship crossing into the atmosphere in daylight and then crashing in the pitch black of night.
It quickly devolves to stupid and then finally ends in the ridiculous. With three guys hanging onto the outside of a ship flying through the air.
I gave this 4 stars only because I am a fan of Thomas Jane and his character made me laugh.
Skip this dud and wait for it's free cable debut.
Last Kung Fu Monk (2010)
Watch this film, but only if you are a collector who must see every kung fu movie.
I won't mince words. This movie is bad. Bad writing, bad acting, sappy music and editing that gave me a migraine headache. But, I think the acting wouldn't have been that bad, if they had lines to deliver. A half decent script writer would have been worth his/her pay. The lead, while wooden is likable. He is clearly skilled in kung fu. But again, so many times he looks like he's asking for a line to deliver. The editing could have been done better by a 14 yr old with a macbook. It is seriously bad. Then there's the flashbacks, yikes. This is film making 101. Use flashbacks sparingly, or never. In one of the last flashbacks, we see Li kicked out of the monastery. Maybe I should have had subtitles, because there seemed to be no explanation for his removal. This and all the other flashbacks added literally nothing to the story. They were just 20 minutes of filler. So, there it is. Its not the worst movie I've ever seen. If you like kung fu and like to see the good guy kick the crap out of the bad guys, and you can tune out all non-fight scenes, then by all means, add this to your collection.
