Person of Interest: Pretenders (2014)
an inferior episode
What's happening to this series? Time to get a new episode director and script writer. Like the critic that knows art when he sees it, I know crap when I see it.
Last week was enjoyable, but this week's script was totally lame. Fink and Lucas O'Connor's take on POI is too light. This week reminded me of one of the execrable 'Lone Gunmen' (the 'X-Files' spin off) episodes.
Another thing the show's doing that's really bugging me is they're changing Shaw's personality. Who said they could do that? Shaw is not supposed to be a comic. Her interactions with others are supposed to be funny due to her dysfunctional personality - she isn't supposed to be a comedienne. She's supposed to be an emotionless killer.
Breaking Bad: Hermanos (2011)
A fantastic episode
I agree that this was just excellent. My first thought after watching 4.8 was, "Vince Gilligan is a f***ing genius." Brilliant direction, acting, and script as well.
I've always thought that Aaron Paul's character and his portrayal of Jesse were tremendously entertaining. He deserves another Emmy for this episode alone. I find myself being terrified of what is going to happen to him in future episodes. It's such a testament to his ability as an actor that he can make a murdering drug dealer seem so sympathetic.
Every actor involved with this series is just amazing. I can't believe that something of this quality is available on cable television. Breaking Bad proves that TV doesn't have to be crap. It sets the bar high for every other TV drama today.
Bloodmonkey (2006)
a response to 'xminusone'
The Robert Young the reviewer is talking about is the director. He's listed as Robert Young (III) in the database - not the Robert Young you're talking about in your post.
It's an understandable mistake.
This movie was standard fair and hardly worth watching.
I have no real review to make of the film. It's not worth making a review of the movie or watching the movie even if it's a rainy day and you have nothing to do. There should be a way of responding to comments without typing a lot of 'filler', but I don't know what it is. Sorry for posting all this,but it won't accept my response to 'xminusone' without a lot of words.
