The Gateway (2018)
2/10
Cold and empty
21 March 2018
Good, it's a low budget. Good, is independent. But. Why bad actors? I am so sorry to say that but they act like a 'let's play On Stage in the backyard' game. Probably they aren't bad per se but they aren't nicely directed, that's for sure. There are also several flaws in the story line that not make sense, even considering the concept of world layers. Not 'spoilering', if you going to watch it you will probably notice yourself. Honestly I can appreciate Sci-Fi without big special effects but I need to 'feel it' to enjoy and this wasn't the case.

The Leftovers (2014–2017)
1/10
They try...
14 April 2017
Bad. Empty. Assumptive. Weak. Totally weak. I am tired of this crap. Why shows are all being alike lately? They are trying so hard to be innovative but they fail. Hard. Random violence, useless killing, animals slaughter just because. Whats the point? Impress audience? Sorry, it doesn't. It bore us. Because authors are following the same path and it's not something new, at all. 'Going against the rules' like everyone is trying to. *Clap clap* Good job in being original in the standard way. Nothing to do with Lost, nothing to do with X-files, nothing to do with HBO quality. I can understand what's their goal but, honestly, I can't feel it. I feel nothing. Sorry.

Preacher (2016–2019)
1/10
Impressed? No, not at all.

To be honest, I am kind of sick of that.

Violence, gore, blood all over, weak characters cliché, predictable and poor plot, shallow irony. I might save the Irish character, trash the rest.

Sometimes I wonder if there is a name for something that can be considered porn but there is no sex involved.

Same basic idea: I just want to show porn so I stitch together two lines of story (Hot girl is enjoying her bath but suddenly tube goes crazy, so she has to call a plumber that will finally let her have fun); good, let's start sex. I just want to upset audience so I stitch together two lines of story (A violent preacher and almost everyone around him will do their best to reach their goal: paint with blood their surrounding); good, let's start the butchery.

Gore porn?

This series tries hard to be original (and has nothing to do with the graphic novel) and it makes me sad reading that some people do take the bait of the 'outrageous topic' screaming 'this is offending Christians!'. They are giving them some satisfaction authors do not deserve.

It's so boring I can't even tell how I managed to watch all 10 episodes. I was waiting for a miracle, I guess. No, it didn't happen. Not for me at least.

Oh and another thing: if you are an animal lover just stay away.

Worst movie ever
4 February 2017
One of the worst movie ever. I can't even call it a 'movie' actually,it's just a waste of money, materials and time. Sandro Ravagnani (and Ivano De Cristofaro) does not possess even the basics of filmography. Actors aren't actors, they can't even speak their language correctly. There's no cinematography, no screenplay, terrible costume design, very bad editing, cheap production design, totally random soundtrack and the plot itself is a no sense. I can't think of one single thing that's positive about it. We are talking about a product that (they said) needed a budget of 4 million euro, a small part of that it's public funds (about 30k euro). One wonders where the money went; not in the movie, apparently. 1 Star because there isn't a -10 stars.
