Jojo Rabbit (2019)
Funny, Sad, Inspiring, As Perfect As a Movie Can Be
There's no such thing as a perfect 10, but this movie comes close. The movie lures you in with its comedy, but gradually overtakes you with its tragedy, yet still maintains a sense of optimism. (I know that sounds nonsensical , but if you watch the movie you'll see what I mean.) Captain Klenzendorf's final scene is one of the most moving scenes in cinema ever, yet it happens so quickly that you don't even appreciate its significance immediately. The beginning and ending musical selections are stunningly perfect.
Ghost Whisperer (2005)
Interesting premise, started strong, ran out of gas
The series had a very interesting premise, yet there was only so much the writers could do. By the third season it was getting pretty predictable - angry/sad spirit, estranged from loved ones, internet search finds key information about a tragic death that happened relatively recently (2-10 years, typically) that most everyone else in Grandview has forgotten, spirit reconciles with loved ones, sees the light and moves on. The series jumped the shark early in season #4 with Jim's death and his subsequent possession of Sam's body.
