The Matrix Resurrections (2021)
What is the Matrix?
Certainly not this movie. The first one from 1999 was groundbreaking and is watched in my household a couple times each year. The second and third installments were a bit scattered but still somewhat entertaining. The fourth is an abomination that should have never been made. Making the the first three movies video games dreamed up and created by Mr. Anderson is a terrible premise. The flashbacks through the first half of the movie is lazy writing. The only good thing about this movie is Keanu Reeves.
The Cleveland Show (2009)
Gawd Awful
There is absolutely nothing funny about this show. It is just over saturation of the Family guy. I wish Comedy Central would take it off rotation.
The Revenant (2015)
The Beauty of The Hardships
Some people thought this story was boring and not believable at all. I disagree. It may have dragged on a bit but I believe it was vital to show how brutal life was during that time especially trying to eek out a life in an unfriendly country during a harsh cold winter. This movie made me feel as if I was there. I shook just thinking about the cold. I felt the pain of Glass as he was mauled and then fought to recover. DiCaprio was brilliant but I believe Tom Hardy stole the show here. The director and writers did take some creative liberties with the story but in my opinion it still worked. It actually made me appreciate civilized society and how much we take for granted. The cinematography was amazing too.
Everybody's Everything (2019)
Not Very Good
The amount of nonsense in this documentary is overwhelming. It is too bad his family didn't help him more. It comes across as a bunch of people that just celebrate each other. Honestly I don't see the talent at all. It really comes across as a documentary of a bunch young guys that are completely aimless. I had to watch it in six different parts because the amount of brainless and stupid commentary gave me a headache. We get it, you are all too cool and you don't care what everybody thinks of you, which is a load B.S.. Some of the guys in the video are calling themselves the new punk. Not even close.
Power (2014)
Meh
Those of you wondering there are 5 actually more episodes left. This past Sunday wasn't the series finale.
I agree with others that the writing has become lazy and predictable. By the way Starz is planning up to two spin offs from this show. One of them is going to be about Tarik. I find his character annoying and the child actor playing him is terrible.
Ray Donovan (2013)
Season 6 Goes Off The Rails
If they would have stopped the show after season 4 I probably would have rated this between an 8 and 10. I felt I had already invested too much time so I finished up season 6 and all I could do was laugh at how stupid it had become. Episode 12 starts out with them chopping up bodies to bury as a family. They should have killed off Mickey Donovan three seasons ago. The youngest brother is as dumb as they come when it comes to characters. Good luck trying to finish this mess.
Showtime has a hard time closing out series. Ray Donovan, Dexter, Homeland and especially Shameless have gone on way too long. Maybe Ray will become a lumberjack with Dexter when it is all said and done.
Dietland (2018)
Disconnected
I gave up on this show after 5 episodes. Very disconnected, confusing and boring.
Bodyguards: Secret Lives from the Watchtower (2016)
A World That Is Worth Seeing
I thought this movie was very informative and interesting unlike a certain reviewer that gave this two stars and called it propaganda. There is nothing about this movie that is propaganda. If anything it shows a negative light on Blackwater. The only thing I didn't really like about this documentary was the part about Weeks, Whitey Bulger's bodyguard or right hand man. It just didn't seem to fit into the rest of the film. I love the candidness at the end of the movie from 50 cent's former bodyguard. There is also some history here with Nelson Mandela and his bodyguards, both black and white. I have a new found respect for the bodyguards that protect the celebrities and the egos surrounding them. Give it a watch and I hope you enjoy it.
What the Health (2017)
Pure Propaganda
This started out good but after about 20 minutes it became blatantly obvious this is propaganda for the Vegan world. Every single meat product causes cancer according to this out of context cherry picking documentary. They state that sugar isn't a major contributor to Diabetes. That was enough for me to completely tune out.
