Strays (2021)
Better than the overall rating suggests.
Obviously this show is not as good or will ever be as good as Kim's Convenience but it does have its moments. The first episode isn't the greatest and I think that's where many people who rated the show stopped watching. The show does get better as it progresses. Nicole Power is really good in this and the guy that plays the janitor is also pretty good. I'm only in season 1, episode 8, but so far I quite enjoy it. Whst could be better is the writing. There are some funny parts but nothing that's belly laugh worthy. I know Ride the Burbs isn't a spin-off but this is WAY better than that show. Cheers.
Spiral: From the Book of Saw (2021)
Could Have Been So Much Better
This movie had a lot of potential but it needed some major improvements in some areas. First of all, if I was financing a movie I would use this movie as a lesson to never use this director. The writing isn't great so you would need to add a good head writer and figure out which of the writers suck and never use them again. Finally you need to use a better casting company. There are so many actors that are miscast in this movie. Chris Rock is a better actor than this role. The lead cop needs to be sn unattractive overweight angry cop instead of the beauty they have cast. Other than that, it's great. Cheers.
Beef (2023)
Great series.
This is a great series except maybe the last episode. The only thing that would have been better is if Danny won more battles but Amy lost more in the end. I don't know if that's a spoiler or not so I'll mark this as containing a spoiler. I also like how they go back and show how Amy's upbringing contributed to her rage. There are a lot of supporting actors like Cho that really add yo the show. He comes across as a real ex con savage type. Right now I'm just typing stuff because the review needs to contain so many characters. Anyway, if you get the chance, you really should watch the series. Cheers.
Copenhagen Cowboy (2022)
Absolutely horrawful
Don't let all the positive reviews fool you, unless you're into bad story lines and terrible acting this isn't your jam. Most of the positive reviews seem yo come from film students which is their prerogative but if you're an average person like me this will not do it for you. I have another 322 characters that I need to write and that's why I don't di too many of these reviews. Do to summarize, writing, bad, acting bad production bad and direction bad. Way too much silence and nor enough dialog. I honestly cannot think of a worse series right now. It's as bad as when they fo that dance at the end of the OA.
Your Morning (2016)
This Show Went Downhill After Ben Mulroney left.
I actually used to like this show. I would watch it it while having a coffee before heading yo work. I never thought I would like Ben Mulroney as much as I did. Since then I don't recall seeing a man replace him. Lindsay and Ann Marie are nice to look at but the vibe isn't the same anymore but I'm a middle aged white male so what do I know. Sometimes it feels like I'm watching The View but with less hate. It would be nice if they ever get around to getting another host like Mulroney but I won't hold my breath. I should add I don't watch the whole program just the first 30 minutes or so. Cheers.
Patton Oswalt: We All Scream (2022)
This is hilarious.
To be very honest I wasn't expecting much when I put this on but found myself laughing out several times. I don't understand all the low ratings. When foing his routine, he connects with real life experiences and how.most of us coped while going through the pandemic. I could certainly relate yovthe partd of the show when he talks about getting older. We're the same age. I don't watch stand up very often but I'm very hlad I did with this one. I was so impressed I'm going to check out more of his routines when I get a chance. Definitely better than a lot of othervtripe you see on Netflix, Prime, etc.
Tenet (2020)
Pretty Pretty Pretty Good
It's a really good movie but it's at least 30 minutes too long. If it was shorter I'd give it a higher rating. Like many other movies that I fond are way too long. The concepts are very interesting.
Clark (2022)
Bill Skarsgard saves this show.
Bill Skarsgard is such a great actor and gives a great performance. The show is decent overall but would have been worthy of an 8 or 9 if it was 2 or 3 episodes shorter.
