House M.D. (2004)
Absolutely the best
Smart, funny, quick-witted! The acting is perfect and each and every episode is engaging to the bitter sweet end. Hugh Laurie is amazing. The dynamic between the doctors keeps you hooked. Warning though... you might start thinking you are a doctor after a few episodes and want to diagnose everything.
Moonfall (2022)
We have to launch in 28 minutes...
"We have to launch in 28 minutes"... that should be plenty of time time to make it from flight control to the cockpit, and still stop and have 3 meaningful conversations each. And that is the whole premise of the worst movie I have seen in years. Gn.
House of Cards (2013)
Politics killed by politics
This is really and truly an amazing show. You put aside the fact that the characters couldn't possibly be so bold in real life, and the fact that the actors have some personal issues, and just rate the show as is, and it is truly amazing! There is brutal vengeance, macro thinking, catchy dialogue, and a short haired Robyn Wright that can literally do no wrong!!! If politics in the real were this good, no one would care about which media outlet they were listening to.
Mad Men (2007)
Endless guessing game
Love the show, and really dig the writing. The show is designed, in my opinion to keep you guessing. As with most, the series drops off in the later seasons, but you keep watching to see how the characters you have invested so much time learning end up.
Burning Questions: Red Notice (2021)
Funny/Action/Heist/Date-Night Vibe
If Indiana Jones, and Danny Ocean had a baby, and then the baby predictably grew up to steal McGuffins all over the world. I wouldn't call it a "who done it", and it isn't quite a "heist" movie... Whitty banter, one liners, and just a bunch of fun. Constant contradictions and "how in the f..." moments. Yeah, totally plausible that a car can sit in place, in a bunker, under the jungle, and crank on the first try....
Eternals (2021)
Amazing movie, so much story!
I only ask that you base you judgement on it as a movie, I'll give my plot review in a few weeks after everyone has time to see it...
Base a marvel movie on all the other movies made at the time and marvel wins. Story, cinematography, special effects, humor, drama. Then add in the intertwining of all the MCU, and detailed origins for all characters.
Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021)
Best DC movie ever!!!
This is simply how it needs to be! Joss who? 4 hours of an unstoppable movie!
Locked Down (2021)
This was good (shocked at the bad reviews)
This movie was really fun and thought out. Relevant and witty! Anne and Chiwetel had charisma and the poetry was phenomenal. I am on calls for the last year via Teams and they seriously nailed it!
The Night Manager (2016)
Well written and excellently executed
A slow burn that is always leading the viewer to a truly excellent place. There NEEDS to be a new season. I have watched season 1 three times already.
Six (2017)
Great show. Wish there was more
This seems to me like a show that Netflix should pick up. To everyone out there cherry-picking small moments of a show apart just know that you are wrong. Six is exactly the right amount of good versus evil. The cast is awesome and you can tell that some effort was put in by History channel. Well done. Highly recommend. NSDQ!
Warrior Nun (2020)
Religion has something to hide?
Seriously though, despite my Uber sarcastic subject line, this was a good show. Not to give anything away, it is a complex story that does a decent job of bringing in a character with just enough origin to make them entertaining. Definitely interested in seeing what happens next. Sign me up for season 2
Hamilton (2020)
Well done!
Absolutely perfect. Pure enjoyment! Music is amazing.
Bad Boys for Life (2020)
Borderline unwatchable
Maybe it is because I was a teenager when the 1st Bad Boys came out, but this movie is bad. There was a boat load of money spent making trash. Disappointed.
