Better Call Saul: Bagman (2020)
Best season of the series, hands down
Best acting, direction, writing, all of it...all of it.
I've been waiting for years for a season like this. And now, only two shows left, it will be over. I hope the team can keep this going...best show on tv now.
Better Call Saul: JMM (2020)
It finally hits slick Jimmy, but not Pam
He's with the worst devils on the planet.
And...he's expendable. Always will be.
Howard was a way out, he'll never see again.
Forgotten Tragedy: The Story of the St. Francis Dam (2018)
Worst Narration I've ever heard
Could the guy rush his lines ANY faster? It's so bad, he mumbles words at times. And when this dufus, who they used for charcter voices, does Mulholland, he does it even faster, in gruff SoCal english. It's terrible. Mulholland was from Ireland, born and raised. He had, as all who knew him stated, a sing song Irish lilt to his voice. Where was the director on this? This is so painfully a director blunder and even anyone who was part of the thing, should have mentioned it.
The rest is just terrible. Worst doc I've seen in decades.
Take a lesson from Ken Burns. Do yourself a favor.
They Shall Not Grow Old (2018)
See the BBC production in 1964
Called, THE GREAT WAR. I recognized the interviews as narrations. The original series was far more complete and with greater detail. They should just colorize the old production. It was and is better.
Better Call Saul: Coushatta (2018)
Nice surprises...this is the BEST season
The cast is just clicking with energy, every scene. I've written a great many books and screenplays, and I find the writing superlative. I usually see it coming. Long before it gets there. I'm impressed. Caught me with new twists, nice setups.
Well done.
The Walking Dead: Worth (2018)
You know, we do get it. No need to beat us in the head to make a point. You didn't do that first season.
WTF!
Kill off Carl? WTF! Kill off every decent person...and leave snarling vicious, psychotic and unlikeable slugs and reverse roles? Rick has become the vicious mad dog killer hinted at through all the seasons.
And now, even the stalwarts are blathering gibberish over and over again, that becomes pedantic. Remember what made this show great and return to it. Or, as another has already decried, ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL THIS THING?
NEGAN truly proves he his all his bragging, well played.
The Magnificent Seven (2016)
When PC invades a period piece, all you have is bogus and stunted film making.
Complete waste of my time. And when magicians feats of magic is every scene, rather than honest period acting, writing, and action, than it goes from crappy to WHY? At least we have the original. Which had its flaws.
But in the main, was a great film.
Better Call Saul: Expenses (2017)
Getting better with each show
Great cast, tight direction, superb writing...
This isn't an action type tense film making. Like Hitch's work, the tension is in the intensity of the characters and writing, which means that it's very, very good.
Jimmy - a nice guy with a morals code - continues to get burned by the very system he has spent years trying to fit into. The more he cooperates, the more it burns him. So slick Jimmy, I would think, must be wondering WHAT THE HELL he saw so much in this corrupt system that Fs you if you play by THEIR rules. Proof to us and Jimmy, the system sucks.
I can now see how in the future, he can and will, become Saul. The system will make him into a more intelligent Chicago slick Jimmy.
Mike the Fixer gets deeper into the mess, with each and every show, while showing that in his core, like Jimmy, he's a good guy with a moral code.
Best television going. Given the outright usual and predictable crap out there. Bring your mind and soul to BETTER CALL SAUL, because it takes both to really appreciate what this show has to offer. Anything less is like all that junk you see on the networks.
Get me? DB
Better Call Saul: Chicanery (2017)
The Caine Mutiny rip with Bogart
Even so, well played for modern audiences who probably don't watch or understand good acting, direction, and writing from the 1950s.
Finally, season three carries its weight with Saul and the Fixer in equal power. A true hit. Well done. Keep it up boys, you are doing it right, so don't mess with the formula.

A Star Is Born (1954)
Some films just complete the experience
...and STAR is one of them.
What an enormous talent... She was playing against herself the whole way through... More autobiographical than she ever could know...
And only Frances - Judy - could do it.
It took along time for me to see this, passing on most musicals as I tend to do. But, I understand it better, than if I'd ever had seen it earlier in my life.
The Big Lebowski (1998)
changes to modern releases, year 2017
So it seems that ALL the online new versions of this film have the Jesus scene with Walter discusses the pedophile activities of Jesus REMOVED.
PIZZAGATE has had its effect...
That's too bad...changing a movie to fit with the occult political times, a kind Orwellian memory hole to take a very ugly spotlight off of many politicians.
