Law & Order: Fault Lines (2022)
ANOTHER "ripped from headlines" story. *Yawn*
Bottom line: another unoriginal, un-interesting story. I'm not still not liking several of the new characters;the only two I like are the returning Anthony Anderson and Samuel Waterson.
NBC : Please STOP having stored based on news. We've already seen the story on the news over and over and over again. Taking a story and adding another twists and tweaks is not interesting, enjoyable television. Go back to original stories.
Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts (2022)
Good but needed more coverage of the reunion.
The special was well made, with lots of content about the making of tht movies. But, I really wanted to seee more of the actors interacting during the actual reunion - similar to Friends and the Fresh Prince reunions - even if it had been via an online meeting.
The Morning Show (2019)
Season 1 OK, Season 2 abysmal
Season 1 was decent. The plots were decent and the episodes flowed together well with a decent conclusion.
Season 2 is just terrible. Plots feel forced, characters don't feel real nor a continuation of the same characters from season 1. It feels like they wrote it to have something and to give the actors something to maybe get awards for their performance. With some episodes I couldn't even make it through the episodes without turning it off and continuing it another day.
HaLobby (2020)
Needs better editing, reduce the bombastic music
Content Ok but difficult to watch. Movie needs some beats - it's just almost non-stop constant content with very few breaks. The biggest difficulty is the music: the almost constant, bombastic music that is more appropriate for a movie about a race than a docmentary. The movie would be much better if paced better and the music was significant reduced.
The Irregulars (2021)
Started out good....
Honestly, I liked the first everal episodes. They seemed more episodic yet with a continuing story, core cast development with the 5 young adults, scerious with some lightheartedness. Then things got very complex and different with episode 4. I thought adding some modern style music wasn't too bad - the the music often overwhelms the show - needs to be toned down. The show seems inconsistent on what it's trying to be. Will update review after finishing the series - if I can make it to the end.
Star Trek Into Darkness (2013)
Lacking originality
I wanted to like this movie but hated it. No originality, unlike J. J. Abrams' first movie. Too much of this movie was taken, and sometimes literally, from the "other" movie, which I won't mention to avoid spoilers. This wasn't cool at all, just the opposite. This movie really felt like an action movie that just happened to use characters and a story from the Star Trek universe , but very little was worthy of Star Trek. However, if you want a loud , action packed movie full of special effects, fighting, etc., this movie will be satisfying.
The United States vs. Billie Holiday (2021)
Mixed
Outstanding acting, but the film could have been edited better. Biggest complaint is the amount of graphic sex scenes that really didn't need to be so prominent in the movie.
Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)
Nope
Another horrible DC movie. For the second time - another movie more about the secondary characters than Wonder Woman.
