I'm being kind with 4 stars.
15 January 2020
I so wanted to love this show. All the actors do such good work. Except 1. Everyone is acting their asses off. Except 1. Everyone is making this show a joy to watch. Except 1. Unfortunately RuPaul can't act or thinks she doesn't have to. She has no chemistry with anyone she is acting with. Maybe it's an editing problem. Still I want to see the story so I'm watching it in 15 minute bursts. Should be through it by Christmas. Time off for work & not being in the mood & such. Please don't make a season 2.

Can't review. Laughing.
14 December 2019
It hurts to laugh this much. But it's ok. That's all I want to say but apparently my review is to short so I'll try to submit this review again.

Lambs of God (2019)

Brilliant
22 August 2019
This is the best show I have seen all year. All the actors are amazing. All the characters a complete human beings. Such a great story. In an age where every show seems to be reaching for a second season I liked being left wanting more but knowing that the story had been told.

Game of Thrones (2011–2019)
10/10
I liked the ending.
30 June 2019
Not a popular opinion but as a reader of books it seemed like the right ending how ever unsatisfying to some. To me the anticlimactic end to Jon Snows story was fitting because life is not about 'happy endings' life just is. All our lives are affected by people in power luckily for most most of us the future of man kind is not on our shoulders. Love the story GOT told looking forward to 'Bloodmoon' and seeing the story it has to tell.

Wow.

As an adopted person I feel strongly validated by this movie. I also thought that finding would fill the gap. That I would feel 'belonging' when I meet my blood. I didn't this is the first 'film' that have related to as an adoptive, except he got to work with all those iconic women. I'm still processing this documentary. I. Need more time to process.

not awful. quite clever if you give it a chance
6 February 2016
just watched this film. saw a lot of derision on here for it so had to comment. this film asks some really good questions and doesn't ask a lot of other questions. This film lets the viewer think. A quality that so few films allow these days. Yes, there is a formula to this film but that is not a bad thing. The themes this film allows you to think about need a familiar plot point to ground it so we as an audience can relate. Sure this film is not Oscar worthy if that matters, but that doesn't make it a bad movie. This film reminds me of the 'Lifeboat' exercise I did in drama school. The 3rd solution to the puzzle made so much sense to me. Watch it and make up your own mind.

lovely movie
17 January 2016
Warning: Spoilers
Firstly i have ticked the spoilers box just encase i give anything away. I have just watched this movie and i have to say it is a lovely heart warming movie. the kind of movie the British do so well. I got to the end of this film wanting to think the events depicted are true. After-all any queen is still a human being and as adolescents we have all gone of track, so to speak. I enjoyed seeing a film about a queen in a modern era, in a world we can relate to and is recent. The kiss we almost see to the end of the film was the icing on the cake for me, knowing that people with a royal duty have a certain behavior to maintain in public and that it is a job i loved the way that scene was shot, we don't see anything but the guard at the gate does and is sworn to secrecy.

I can't help but watch this film and think about the princes William & Harry.

To me Harry is Margret and William is the queen

Long story short didn't expect to love this movie

I love this movie

Sweet British film

American Horror Story: She Wants Revenge (2015)
Season 5, Episode 9
10/10
1 of the best episodes
10 December 2015
Warning: Spoilers
AHS is one of my favorite shows, it does for social commentary what science fiction did in days gone by and that is a scary thought in itself. While the trolls are gonna hate just cause they can i do think that 'Hotel' is the best series yet. This series has a mush or complex subplot. I love the flashy stuff, the reverences to 'The Bad Seed' , 'The Hunger' , 'The Shining' to name but a few The reverences in this series are almost to many to count. As for 'Lady GaGa' she isn't awful. In fact i Would say she has finally done 1 thing better than My personal touch stone Madonna. Lady GaGa has acted fairly well. Even though every time she was on screen i wanted to see Jessica Lange. If you like old fashioned horror that has socially relevant commentary just as science fiction used too then you will enjoy getting sucked into the AHS world

Lucifer (2016–2021)
10/10
Really enjoyed it!
14 September 2015
Warning: Spoilers
i loved this first episode which in my experience is a bad thing because the shows i love get canceled. But as a television version or a graphic novel 'Lucifer' is faithful but still a television show hunting for ratings. i mean no ratings mean not more seasons (i'm looking at you Constantine) so i understand the problem with converting a much loved VERTIGO product into a television 'product' Starting to wonder if any of them can make it. Personally i want a film/TV version of Sandman but when Hellblazer bombs (even though i liked it) and the reviews so far for Lucifer Morningstar haven't been great then i'm not holding my breath. i'd rather have a mind-blowing Sandman than a so-so, canceled before the first season has even even ended Sandman.

Fear the Walking Dead (2015–2023)
10/10
Love IT!
25 August 2015
might be the best spin off ever in my opinion. FTWD has a feel about it that reminds of the great disaster movies i loved as a kid like The Towering Inferno. The audience knows whats going on but the characters don't. The first episode builds this tension well. If you love the genre or franchise then check this out. No one is gonna green light a show unless it is gonna make money so the hater are right and wrong because this show has the potential to run for many seasons and cross over with The Walking Dead. I think we as viewers have been conditioned to expect that all spin offs and sequels will be lame. I know i am guilty of not giving some film/shows the time of day for that reason only to find that when i get over myself and watch them i really enjoy them. Glad i took the plunge into FTWD cause i think i might like it more than The Walking Dead. The characters a very relate-able. Also Cliff Curtis is a Kiwi boy made good and very easy on the eyes. TV gold in the making... in my humble opinion. Watch it and make up your own mind.

a timely film
2 July 2015
Warning: Spoilers
This film could be an unofficial sequel to "KIDS" not because it deals with skateboarding 'kids' but because it shows how society has changed and how the youth of the world have adjusted / adapted to these changes. Social media, normalization of pornography, drug culture, homelessness, alcoholism, prostitution. it is hard to shine a light on the world and keep everyone happy, or maybe even keep within the moral law (if a moral law even exists anymore). Mr Clark is a fearless film maker he shows the world i have seen in my youth and can see it has become. Unfortunately because the subject material can be seen as salacious some of the image of our world that it reflects maybe lost. This film is risky. This film will offend many people. This film will remind many people of their youth. This film is worth your time.

loved it!
17 June 2015
Jupiter is a fun ride. I love this kind of movie. Amazing visuals,great SciFi story line. I don't understand why people hate on this film so much. Sure there are some run of the mill plot points but i still really liked this movie, maybe people just love to hate these days. Not the worst film I've ever seen by far. I'd say ignore the haters and give it a go, make up your own mind. This film isn't in my top ten but i didn't hate it. I get the feeling that there are 'Matrix' haters stalking everything the Wachowski's do now to hate on them cause they didn't like they way the Matrix ended. FYI i like their ending. Am i the only one? I watch movies like i read books, even tho' i might not like the ending, i respect the storytellers right to tell the story they want to tell.

not as bad as i thought it might be
25 May 2015
i read a lot of hate about this movie. Saying it didn't make sense, that it was the worst movie ever . . . . sure i had several yawn moments but over all i didn't feel i wasted my time watching this movie. I'm 40 years old my first transformer was Soundwave. Gotta say i didn't love every cartoon as a kid but i like the story progression, which is how i see this film. People need to see a human story to connect so it must be a huge challenge to make a movie about robots. yeah there are lots of clichés but who cares! i didn't watch this film for a life changing or Shakespearean experience. I watched this movie,like i watch all Bay films, for the ride. i was in the mood for a roller-coaster and fluff and i got what i wanted bring on Trans4!
