Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel (2021)
LAMENESS is at a peak!
Too much speculation by idiot YouTubers and not enough real information. You should just spend 4 hours watching random conspiracy junk on the web. Or read a good real-crime book. It will be more interesting. Or tell ghost stories around a flashlight. Or punch yourself in the face.
Shockwave (2017)
Ugggh I gave up
Let me start by saying I enjoy me a disaster movie, brainless or similar, now and then. Deep Impact, Into the Storm, Category 6, Category 7, Cat. 8, Aftershock: Earthquake in New York, End of the World (2013, Greg Grunberg) etc.
The movie starts, and :
Why are the good 'ol USA characters in Yemen with a weapon that can destroy the planet? You will never know. Why are they being shot at? No idea. What is the story? You will never care!!
Lost in the Pacific (2016)
Ouch! Wanted more but this is terrible
I love disaster movies. Period. All kinds.
But after 27 minutes I feel I can already complain. This movie is woman-hating and dumb about China vs. America. The DVD i have has a muddy soundtrack and no closed captions and no english subtitles, other than the obvious foreign language parts. Plane is supposed to be futuristic but it looks like 1970's DC9 or A320 from 1990. I waited half an hour and I hope they all die.
The Greater Good (2011)
Problems with big corporations=YES, and do vaccines work=YES
This movie wrote itself. Forgettable.
So you anti-vaxxers know about how diseases and infections are transmitted, and how many people died over the last 500 years of infections, smallpox, scarlet fever, plague, pneumonia etc?
Modern medicine has made great strides and we now (on average) live longer than ever.
Are there people who would make money off medicine? Yes. Does this require a conspiracy? No. Just keep in mind big pharma make money and yet overall is helping.
So get innoculations and also hold big pharma and government accountable.
But if you think the answer is to not innoculate your kids, you are doing your children and other peoples children harm.
If you want to help people, investigate the opioid industry.
Incredibly, that now kills more people than alchohol or guns.
Tornado - Der Zorn des Himmels (2006)
Watch out for (INCOMPLETE) Amazon version!!
As of April 2018, Amazon Prime has only the first 90 minutes of this movie. FAIL!!
Having given this caveat, let me say I did buy the DVD off Ebay: "F4: Vortex", and it's OK. The Amazon version had German voices with subtitles in English, which I would prefer to the DVD which had crummy English dubbing and no subtitles or closed captions available. I am an English speaker.
Oh, and the movie was OK, in a tradition with most 4 hour, or 3 hour without commercials, TV movies.
