Colin Quinn & Friends: A Parking Lot Comedy Show (2020)
An honest film that portrays the struggles comedians are facing as a result of COVID-19
I think some of the few reviewers have somewhat missed the point of this film. I don't believe this was created to wow an audience, it was more so providing a glance into the current situations that comedians are facing. I felt that this special was created to emphasize how necessary social interaction is in order for stand-up to be successful and how the lack of it affects the comedic community. This film shows their struggles and how much of an impact it has had on their careers. This special was not made to be a knock out, it was made to reveal the ugly, honest side of comedy that we don't often get to see. These people were doing performances in front of cars, communicating to VEHICLES... How awkward and intimidating must have been. That's what this special captures. Anyone who has the audacity to criticize these comedians must really be out of touch with our reality. Comedians are human! The ones who participated in Collin Quinn & Friends were brave enough to allow their failures to be documented and shared just to provide us with some insights and perspectives that we don't see otherwise and that is what was amazing about the special. I enjoyed it and found it be worth the time investment!
Spectral (2016)
Loved this movie!!! Interesting plot that deviates from the typical storylines!
It's so disappointing to see that some of the best movies that I come across often have such mediocre reviews. I likely would have not chosen to watch Spectral had I relied solely on the movie reviews. I came across it by chance, knowing nothing about the movie beforehand. I randomly selected a title I had not watched yet and am glad to have done so! This movie was surprisingly good and possessed a unique story line that I found To be refreshing and enjoyable. Action packed throughout the film and overall a great movie. I recommend anyone and everyone watch it!
