The Pale Blue Eye (2022)
Only 3 stars for overall production
Nothing wrong with writing, scripts, or even characters. Cast was fantastic. No. This movie was filmed in near midnight darkness for better than 80% of the time. Sure, Edgar Allen Poe is in the movie as a character. This is the 21 Century. Creating a gloomy atmosphere has to be done in complete darkness? The director of this movie should go and watch thec1960s spoof The Raven, starring Boris Karloff and Vincent Price - that movie was dark and gloomy - but the movie goer could see the faces of the actors as well as the ending set going up in flames to Hell. This movie had such a scene, and it was bright in the flames. However, all scenes leading up to that climax were filmed in less light than a single AAA battery flashlight could provide. I turned on closed caption 20 minutes into the movie, and gave thanks that the words were in bright letters. That's the only way I could follow the plot. Total pathetic.
The Body Farm (2011)
Let me just say...
We were blessed there was only one season, and that season one ended after 6 episodes with nothing more.
So now, I must continue to write something to fill up a required "150 characters?"
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23...
999 1000 1001 1002 1003 1004 1005 1006 1007 1008 1009...
Waking the Dead (2000)
If you enjoy loathing the lead character
...then you will love this series. Peter Boyd (Trever Eve) evolves into one giant narcissistic POS. He rants and raves at his subordinates and many of the suspects he encounters. Yet he is too blind to accept the fact that his own personal life is one giant train wreck. I watched it to the end just on the hope that someone would clock him. It did happen, but not enough. All other characters were fantastic!
Radioactive (2019)
Typical 21st Century "Historical" movie
Filmed in the dark, poor script, actors who cannot act, poor editing. The best part of this movie? The very last 2 seconds. You should FF to that and save 1:49.43 seconds of your life.
Blow the Man Down (2019)
First Word in Title explains it all.
Blow.
Well, this one did just that, and very very well. Use the 1 and 1/2 hour of your time in a better way. Does the stale air in your bycicle tires need changing?
Keeping Faith (2017)
Indeed Music Score Blows
I watch this show for the story line, the actresses and actors, and the scripts. I rate this series a solid 10, and if I could give it 12 - I would. All that being said, whoever was paid to perform the music backdrops, and whoever was paid to mix these "scores" behind fantastic scripts, and acting should be sued for every dime they took from this production. Those fools could not write a complete 8 note scale with any meaning whatsoever.
