The Invisible Pilot (2022)
Interesting Story
Only one episode in and I'm ready for another one. I'm not familiar with this story but have family near Hazen, AR. Very familiar with the scenery and have an Uncle who is a crop duster in that county.
Positives: this is a fascinating story with a twist that makes you want the next episode to be available. It's interesting and they don't try to hide the trauma and mental struggles of the family members.
Negatives
The editing of the footage could have been a higher production value. At one point, they display Hazen, Arkansas in a title, then a shot of the Hazen square. Then it pans to a shot if the Dickson Street Bookstore in Fayetteville, Arkansas which is over 3 hours from Hazen. I know that most people watching will just see a bookstore shot that they think is in Hazen. But having been to both places many times, those two towns are so different from each other, from people to politics.
Overall, very satisfying to watch and I look forward to the next episode. It's always fun to watch a good documentary with familiar scenery, from the Des Arc bridge to Pulaski Heights Middle School in Little Rock.
Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard (2021)
Horrible Sequel
An insipid, uninspired sequel that comes across as a money grab rather than something wanting to entertain you. I actually enjoyed the first movie, although it wasn't amazing. The plot felt thrown together by a 13 year old and I don't think I laughed at all. It was a pain to get through the movie and the only reason I made it was my family - they didn't want to turn it off. I absolutely love Samuel L Jackson, Selma Hayek, and Ryan Reynolds so I desperately wanted to enjoy it. But unfortunately it was really terrible and boring.
