Missions (2017)
"LOST" in Space
Intriguing first series that holds your attention throughout and leads to a second series full of beautiful landscapes that promises to provide answers to many of the questions raised.
Then Jeanne walks through a portal and into series 3 and that's when the writers' inspiration from "LOST" rears it's ugly head and the whole thing loses all of tit's impetus and just becomes a muddled mess.
Somehow they thought it would be a good idea to create a parallel universe of earthbound tedium and turn the characters through 180 degrees.
I would suggest watching series 1 & 2 and then let your own imagination create whichever scenario lies through the portal - it can't be worse than what they actually came up with.
Shame!
NCIS: Naval Criminal Investigative Service: What Child is This? (2018)
Once in Gibbs' Federal City
An absolute travesty of an episode that should be erased & struck from the record immediately.
From the ridiculous procedural errors made by Gibbs and the team,,via the schmaltz of keeping the baby at HQ and.the clumsy attempt to give Kasie a back-story, to Jack's biased advice to give up the child and the ensuing adoptive Xmas "miracle" - this is a crass attempt of the worst kind to make a Yuletide heart string puller. It fails on each and every level!
Whoever gave this script the green light needs stringing up in tinsel and hanging from the highest fir tree in the most remote forest in the world...
NCIS: Naval Criminal Investigative Service: Ephemera (2020)
Too twee!
This was like one of those hokey Star Trek episodes where they visited earth of the past and dressed up as gangsters to fit in.
Totally unnecessary and distracting to stick wigs on the cast members and have them play out the contents of old.love letters.
Just could not get into it at all...Awful.
Village of the Damned (1995)
Awful appropriation
If you are a fan of the novel "The Midwich Cuckoos" or the original British screenplay stay away from this abomination of a movie.
Transplanting the story to the good old US of A and adding gore completely transforms the original feel of the story (as is so often the case when Hollywood decides to do remakes of other nations' films).
This should really just have been called "The Bastards" - I'll let you decide if that refers to the Children, or the people behind this mess...
