Dracula (2020)
Episode 3 sucks the life out of it...
Claes Bang is absolutely delicious as Dracula, I really liked him in the part and Dolly Wells just brilliant as Agata Van Helsing.
Episode one had me gripped, episode 2 was brilliant, except had the unwelcome wiff of the BBC fitting it's agendas in, but episode 3, as others have mentioned and I wanted to test, was indeed an absolute train wreck. Not only did it completely fail the first two, it was almost a different programme and the BBC, of course, got their agendas in there. Just awful, with a rotten ending to finish it. Watch the first two, don't ruin it with the third.
10/10 for the first two, 0 for the third.
De slag om de Schelde (2020)
SPR like scenes, but silly mistakes.
A really good movie this, but maybe because I know nothing about this battle. I saw some silly mistakes in it, an SS officer calling himself and Oberleuntnant, I think, when the SS have their own rank structure, so his title would have ended in "führer", but then, he's not wearing an officers uniform, but that of an NCO. I saw that mentioned in the goofs. But, what I didn't see in the goofs was that I saw the Canadian soldiers attacking with bolt action Lee Enfield rifles, yet repeatedly I heard the "ching" of the clip of an American M1 rifle being ejected.
Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard (2021)
What a waste... 👎🏼
I've seen worse, but not by much. Selma Hayek was over acting like her life depended on it and in the end she started grating. The SFX ruined the locations and it's like some actors were brought out of retirement just to show their faces and I think the same can be said for S L Jackson. The ONLY reason that this is worth watching to the end is Reynolds, because he's his normal self, but he couldn't save this turkey. For all it's big cast and big locations, it was just a big disappointment.
Wrath of Man (2021)
A dreadful, DREADFUL movie.
This is a Guy Ritchie movie? Did he forget how to make good movies?? It's UTTERLY woeful!!
Right from the first minute it's poorly made, B movie special effects, the most wooden of acting with a shockingly poor script. I'm trying to think of some redeeming quality, some uplifting moment in this dross. But I can't think of one. Nothing. Not one thing.
Backtrace (2018)
I lasted 8 minutes.
I was picking holes in this from the very beginning. But then came the rather bizarre gun battle where hundreds of bullets fly, yet none of the three cars are damaged at all, then what quite obviously isn't Matthew Modine's stunt double appears - they could have at least tried to get someone who looked like the guy they were "doubling" for - takes a bullet to the head, hat stays on, no damage, that's enough for me, switch off.
Remember (2015)
Great film ruined.
This is a great film, well acted, even hard to watch in parts... but the ending??
*ABSOLUTE SPOILER*
At the end, we find out that Christopher Plummer was a Nazi at Auschwitz. So, therefore, he DIDN'T lose his family, suffered some sort of dillusion as well as complete amnesia, became Jewish, had no hatred from his "friend" in his home, clearly had no family history to tell his wife and it's all swept under the carpet with his suffering dementia? What absolute nonsense. It's the worst "twist" at the end of a movie I've ever seen and makes the entire story totally implausible and absolutely ridiculous.
