The 2nd (2020)
Such a bad film you can't not watch it.
This film sucks in every single aspect. Bad acting, bad dialogue, bad casting, bad camera work, bad score, bad everything. The people who made this film must have worked very hard to make it suck this much. It can't be a coincidence. It is clearly the product of deliberate and extensive effort. I don't want to spoil the thrill of discovery here, but this film is so bad it actually travels across the universe and back to become the greatest film ever made.
How to Become a Tyrant (2021)
This series is misleading to say the least...
It does two main things very craftily. First, it detaches tyrants from the ideologies that got them to their positions, as if ideology has nothing to do with tyranny. The narrative seems to use irony to make it more appealing, but it actually trivializes atrocities committed in the name of ideologies.
Second, it "cleans" communism very subtly. It presents Stalin as the first tyrant, thereby implying that Lenin and Communism were not the issue. However, Lenin was as much of a tyrant as Stalin, he just didn't get around to killing as many people as Stalin did because of his failing health.
In addition to these two main points, it sheds positive light on Communism at various fleeting moments, mostly ignores China and generally pushes Communism in other subliminal ways. This is condemnable.
This seems like a wolf in sheep's clothing, with a very crafty trick of putting that in wolf's clothing and seemingly criticizing it.
Greyhound (2020)
I have some bad news and some good news
The bad news are - this is a movie Tom Hanks would like to forget ever making. Good news are, this movie is so forgettable, it would be very easy.
