I Care a Lot (2020)
Dark Drama
This is a good movie for most of it. The acting is good, the plot is disappointing at some points. There are two dark forces fighting each other. That makes it difficult to "root for" anyone. It was disappointing toward the end when the two protagonists "unite". .I.had to ask, "What was the writer thinking". After that, the whole movie fell apart. This was the turning point from good to bad. The plot was mostly filler at that point. The ending was almost predictable, and there were lots of loose ends..
The Boys: What I Know (2020)
It's easy to get "hooked", even for a grandma
I've really enjoyed watching this show, and I AM LOOKING FORWARD to seeing new episodes. The characters indeed have character, not necessary as being "good" but as in having depth.
The I-Land (2019)
A Slow Starter that Grows
When I first started watching I thought it was a movie version of The Survivor without the $1Million prize. The third show changed the direction when it's revealed that the I Land is a simulation. There are some "cheap" turns, which I think detract from the show. Overall, however, I found I was looking forward to watching the next episode. I've now watched 4 of the 7 episodes, so my rating could adjust up or down.
Avenging Angelo (2002)
Much better than I expected
Avenging Angelo was dedicated to Anthony Quinn, whose character was killed off in a vendetta for the murder a rival. His daughter, Jennifer was never told he was her father. Her "father and mother" were to raise Jennifer as their own child for her protection. Frankie was her body guard much of her life. In the process he fell in love with her. There was definite chemistry between Jennifer and Frankie. The movie is fairly predictable. One of the silliest moments was when Jennifer decided to "wax" the man who was trying to have her killed. Being at death's door, Jennifer succeeded when she "married him to death". The movie had romance and laughter, and it was a lot of fun if you could overlook the "whacking" of several people who were out to get Jennifer.
