The Eden Theory (2021)
Waste of Time
The first twenty minutes makes no sense, at all, when you get to the rest of the story. A big build up to a big nothing.
There was tension and anxiety building up in the beginning but it went no where.
Gentleman Jack (2019)
I tire of such Gimmicks
The title says it. I find this very gimmicky and full of boring tropes. I tried through three episodes and just could not sustain interest. I can see why many would like it but I suppose I am just not part of that demographic.
Zvyozdniy razum (2022)
Not much to recommend in this one
The acting was very clumsy and the script was worse. Good writing does cover bad acting better than good acting covers bad writing. Sadly, this film was a combination of bad writing and bad acting.
So many cliches of the genre, it became difficult to watch.
I regret the time wasted watching this one.
Reacher (2022)
Finally A Reacher You Can Believe is Reacher
I binge watched this Reacher story based on Child's The Killing Floor. It was easy to do. Unlike the Tom Cruise version I could actually believe this man was the Reacher I had come to love in the novels.
The supporting characters were great and the Eight episodes maintained the tension without sending me into anxiety over load.
The hero rides off into the sunset ending was just a bit silly and yes Reacher is just a bit too Super Man with the way he walked off from what would have been hospitalizing injuries in the real world, none of that injured one's ability to enjoy every minute of this complex action thriller.
Dracula: The Original Living Vampire (2022)
Very, very bad
This is a trashy PC rewrite that is just silly, in spite of wanting to be taken seriously.
It is impossible to suspend disbelief long enough to get into this absurdly weak PC retelling of a great story. Van Helsing is a female London detective in the 19th century who is very open about being lesbian and Nina is her girl friend. This one requires some very strong smoke to get any enjoyment out of. It is offensively bad.
