Hatchet Job
15 March 2024
I was really looking forward to this, The twenty years of unprecedented success of my beloved New England Patriots, but how disappointed I was after each episode.

This Series was produced by the Kraft Family & was a complete character assassination of Head Coach Bill Belichick & a love note to "Tommy".

The Patriots second and third Superbowl victories vs the Panthers & Eagles were completely overlooked whilst the Scandals & Losses were heavily focused on.

I lost all respect for owner Robert Kraft after this, Funnily he omitted his own massage parlour Scandal from the documentary but was happy to insinuate Aaron Hernandez murder victims would still be alive if it wasn't for Belichick.

Tom Brady Love in.

Bill Belichick hatchet Job.

Kraft Mr good guy holding a dynasty together.

One day I hope for Coach Belichicks version of events.

Boring, Fake & Overly Dramatic
12 December 2023
I was really looking forward to this, I'm a huge game show fan and a huge squid game fan so a show combining those two elements should have been a slam dunk exceptional piece of television i would love.

Wrong.

It was so badly done, you can tell they are performing from a script, so many cutaways to contestant interviews pre-games where they all have your typical reality tv sob stories.

Then you find out from the participants social media afterwards how much of the show was staged, fixed, that these contestants were already influencers & in some cases already from money.

Just over the top, overly dramatic, extremely predictable and poorly produced rubbish.

If you love Squid Games give this a miss, wait for Season 2 or rewatch Season 1.

Ghosted (I) (2023)
5/10
So-So
28 September 2023
It's a genre that's been done to death, So many movies exactly like this, The Spy Who Dumped Me is the exact same premise from only a few years ago.

Ghosted is not terrible, It's not great, Five out of Ten, So-So, Watchable, all perfect ways to describe this film.

Has a few laughs in the first half of the film, Chris Evans going back to his trashy teen comedy roots, Ana De Armas is good in the lead as the beautiful woman with a secret.

This movie will pass a couple of hours but you won't be going back for multiple rewatches.

If you're looking for the elite movie of this genre then try True Lies.

Outer Banks (2020– )
7/10
Farcical but Fun
24 February 2023
The O. C meets, The Goonies, meets National Treasure, that's how I would describe Outer Banks.

I watched all 30 episodes in 3 days so I must have been quite good.

It's your typical American show, Beautiful People in Beautiful Places, Love crossing the class divide and then throw in some farcical fun that these high school dropout kids can find ancient treasure experts never could, Escape from capture, take out trained military operatives, Drive every vehicle from car, van, truck to boat & survive for a month on an uninhabited island with just the clothes on their back.

If you loved the O. C, Goonies & National Treasure and you can overlook plot flaws in favour of entertainment then you won't be disappointed by Outer Banks.

Don't Worry Darling (I) (2022)
2/10
Everyone was right
27 October 2022
This movie is awful, I had to watch this after all the crazy publicity surrounding it and boy is this a train wreck.

What on earth possessed Florence Pugh to commit to this project and then stay on board.

Harry Styles cannot act, Full stop, it was painful watching his scenes where he was trying to convey emotions, Nick Kroll completely over acted in his minimal scenes, Olivia Wilde doubles down as a terrible actress and terrible director.

Even hard up for work Shia Lebouef saw sense and ran from this rubbish.

Even if you ignore the terrible acting, Ignore the bad cast, Ignore the lousy directing, The plot is basically The Stepford Wives.

Avoid this film, Spend 2 hours of your life doing something else, I wish I had.

Absolutely Awful
21 July 2022
This franchise has forgotten why Jurassic Park was so loved, this film was just rehashed, done before action, with scenes that seemed to be stolen straight from Jason Bourne & Mission Impossible.

Such a disappointment
24 December 2021
As a Matrix fanboy, I couldn't wait for this film.

Unfortunately it was a huge letdown.

Poor storyline, Poor casting including replacing beloved characters with new actors for unknown reasons.

This movie did not work.
