Classic Concentration (1987–1991)
8/10
Penny, I just saw you in 1991 episode....
19 April 2024
Warning: Spoilers
It is now playing in the Buzzr. I think that the channel reruns the same show within the few days. You now are playing against Michelle, I missed the previous player, some guy. But right now you're going to play for car for a second try. If this is you, then you should win next time. ... This show is great and I wish they will bring it back. I wish myself to be playing one time. If they bring the show back I doubt that the new host can match Alex Trebec, but that's ok. Marjorie Goodson and her puppy are keeping the ship nicely. The name of the show is perfect, because this show needs concentration.

It could have been a good movie, but...
1 April 2023
.... Unfortunately, for some unexplainable reason the main female character in this picture was so annoying that it started to irritate too much to finish watching it. There is an excellent movie about two unagreeable people traveling across the USA. That movie is 'Rain Man' with Tom Cruise and .Dustin Hoffman.

Otherwise this could have been charming. I usually like offbeat and a little bit clumsy indy adaptations, and it is such a shame that the director and producer and editor, etc did not pay attention to one simple fact, that it is unpleasant to watch unpleasant person act like a self-centered jerk.

This Week (1996– )
7/10
Enjoyable but inconsistent
23 January 2023
Watching 1/23/23 episode with Martha Raddigz hosted the episode. I notice that I'm more upset listening to Martha's angry disposition towards Biden and the left. She clearly thinks that Biden's 30 classified documents are as bad or maybe even worse than Trump's 300, which is ten times higher! I don't mind in principle having both left and right leaning hosts for the show, but maybe it would be better to have more pleasant than her personality as hosts. Just to be biased does not have to so mean spirited as Martha. I'm sure that you could use a more softer right leaning host, and just let Martha do smaller segments in the show.

Otherwise.

3 stars for nostalgia.
8 January 2023
I've seen this movie a couple times, and today I just had to change to something else after about 30 minutes. Maybe there are just too many comedians here, none of the characters are interesting. Ethel Merman's voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard, and behavior is more embarrassing than funny. If only she was the only annoyance, but practically all characters are unpleasant. This is like looking at toddlers having temper tantrums.

I wonder if having so many comic 'stars' created a movie too difficult to direct. If you like slapstick, I recommended Three Stooges. They are more likeable, smarter and funnier.

Too much waste
26 August 2022
When I mentioned to a friend, he responded how it is cheaper to just demolish the whole house rather than spend manpower on recovery of reusable objects, such as doors windows, fixtures, and appliances. Couldn't Ty give one extra vacation day to the family while they give opportunity to save reusable items from the house?

Otherwise this show has brought some happy tears watching the show.

They said 'Sorry, your review is too short. It needs to contain at least 600 characters.' so here adding just to fill in the requirements. [who's idea was it to force extra characters? It reminds me of school years, lol, laughing out loud to gather more characters. I've been practicing writing concise comments to make my point as short and sweet as possible, but now I need to elaborate to extend the length of text.]

Baby switch story is the last straw, until every other scheme after that... they need to fire the lazy head writer...call OSH
13 June 2019
Warning: Spoilers
This does not let me write a new review, so I have to edit this old thing;.. So this Sheila fiasco, she now sits in jail but for some reason Bill Spencer holds the keys whether Sheila gets prosecuted for her crimes. As shooting two people - one was even pronounced dead until miracle cure -, is it just a civil matter? Will Steffy finally learn about a magic device in the front door called a lock? Can they not afford to buy a door camera? The writers suck..01.10.2022... .. Forrester Creations has serious work place safety issues. I've seen at least two deadly accidents... One was electric, as the company did not do proper lockout on the dangerous unit,.... And now we find deadly vats of acid placed within easy access to fall in. Their workers need to unionize! 11/14/19 Like most others, I am disgusted with the baby switching story, and Xander can not possibly love Zoe after seeing how she is selfishly willing to destroy Hope! ... ... update... Now that the baby fiasco is unraveling.... I can't help but marvel how the writers of this drivel have their heads in the last century,.... How long for someone to just say ; 'Ok now we must do a DNA test..... why do we have to listen to this ridiculous from Ridge; '' Ehhh, this baby is not Beth.'.... etc etc...

too much emphasis on celebrity gossip
1 March 2018
The hosts are all ok by me, no complaints.there. but the show is a waste of time for those of us who prefer news over gossip. but maybe it's just me, maybe the show is supposed to be

Carousel (1956)
3/10
Why ???
28 May 2017
I gave THE THree stars for the nostalgic old time music, beautiful landscapes both real and fake, and wonderfully executed dance sequences.

Shirley Jones plays a young naive smitten girl, who decides -who knows why- to miss curfew and willfully lose her job to stay out with this womanizing rough and tough just fired carousel operator. Who knows why, since I failed to see anything attractive about him. But that was just first of many more stupid choices.

Maybe not being able to relate to the movie, the acting seemed superficial as well.

Since it made no sense, then there were not many reasons to enjoy the movie.

Warrior (2011)
10/10
great and touching movie
5 May 2013
Warning: Spoilers
i was lucky to not have seen the trailer, nor even known what this movie, 'warrior' is about. not knowing whether the movie was going to be action, as the name might suggest, i was impressed by the great editing and solid storytelling which made me oblivious to the length of it.

this movie kept me engaged from the very beginning to the very end. i will recommend this and i look forward to watching it many more times.

by far my favorite of this genre.

since IMDb mandates ten lines minimum in order to submit a review, i'd like to add that this movie and all its three main characters deserved an Oscar nomination, - nick nolte was the only who was nominated. also the editing deserved one imo.

Carnage (2011)
3/10
annoying
5 May 2013
Warning: Spoilers
three stars for good acting and a couple of funny and clever remarks.

i added spoiler alert only to play it safe.

too bad the only way to submit a review one must blab ten sentences.

i would skip this movie unless you enjoy arguments. i would personally just have my own argument.

from the get go, i was just waiting and hoping for the visiting couple to leave.... under the circumstances, it would have been best.

this made the rest of the movie pointless, and annoying. and no, i did not get any satisfaction from getting a feeling of intellectual superiority.
