Depp V Heard (2023)
1/10
Glad YouTube creators are here for you to COPY&PASTE
16 August 2023
I watched the whole trial streamed. Why is a "documentary" JUST using other people's footage? If my content was used, without permission (like popcorn planet), I'd be so angry. If you wanted to do a documentary, why wouldn't YOU - a producer, filmmaker, etc attend this trial and get your own footage? It's so lazy. I do enjoy my documentaries on Netflix and this is absolutely the worst. Grant it, what was on social media was a huge wave, but how does that give someone the right to make a documentary threading other people's work together?

Watching the whole trial, this is incredibly biased. If you show testimony of Heard's witnesses, maybe also show Depp's witnesses in the same light in the same episode!

I hope those content creators bring some serious heat to this production crew.

Beckett (2021)
7/10
Beautiful
14 August 2021
I thought that the filming was incredible. Great shots and great edits. The story was the typical chase and crime thriller. Compared to other recent films, I thought this story had more depth to it than say Without Remorse. I enjoyed that the plot focused on the character rather than the detailed politics. It kept it more relatable. Really a pleasure to watch and just enough details to keep you interested. There was realistic violence versus the over the top.

Great movie that needs to be added to history classes!

I was expecting to love this movie, but not as much as I did. I am not completely familiar with the actual historical events that took place in Jones county. With that being said, I cannot say what facts they messed up or things like that. I have this movie an 8 only because there's a bit of the time line of the story that is weird and only half makes sense because it takes place in the 1960's. Moving on, the rest of the story is incredible. All of the actors are wonderful and make it a great film. It's too bad it wasn't sold or advertised more, but politics of Hollywood prevail. The story has lots of religious overtones which could be part of it. This story not only goes through the Civil War, but Restoration is covered too. That is something that you don't see much of, the things the Southerners went through after the war. Matthew McConaughey just delivers a great performance again! I can't believe it's rated so low on here! They did everything right by this movie.
