She-Hulk: Attorney at Law (2022)

Quantity not quality!!

[1/10 · 30 August 2022]

Let's make a show for every character we want to introduce and then put the character into our movies afterwards. Ok sound strategy but this is a very boring show low budget bad writing, dull story.

It would have been better if you made it a 20 episode sitcom where a poor quality CGI would be understandable.

But this has no story, if Disney said it's only two episode, there is no cliffhangers, nothing to wait on the next show, it's like a daily night show but for no reason at all

CGI is cheap for She-Hulk (no effort has been made) while the Hulk was well done because it was uploaded from older movies.

The Princess (I) (2022)

Good fighting movie

[7/10 · 11 July 2022]

So the princess is actually fighting and killing 95% of the actors in the movie. No story and very shallow characters.

Having said that, this is one of the few movies of this current time that shows a female who can kickass and somehow believable. All of the energy of production and directing of this movie was put on making very good fighting scenes. And they actually did it. Joey king can build on that and may be become the next Jason Statham if she wanted to.

The Terminal List (2022– )

Finally some good TV entertainment

[10/10 · 4 July 2022]

Good action, good drama and thriller and although it's a bit repeated story and a Rambo like, but that is actually what is good about it. We need more of this and less of the crap that has been going on for a while.

The Rookie: Five Minutes (2021) Season 4, Episode 2

Just one line I have a problem with

[7/10 · 16 June 2022]

The firewoman talking about her fellow firemen and says I better get in those guys are useless without me. Well I could buy that if I was listening to a podcast series but really we can see people!!

The Adam Project (2022)

A movie time travelled from good old days

[9/10 · 13 March 2022]

It's hard to believe it's by Netflix.

It's good to know that someone out there can still make good movies with good stories without all the unpopular trendings forced on us nowadays, It's a also a good comedy and without may be 3 minutes of the movie it could have been a family one.

In from the Cold: The Family (2022) Season 1, Episode 4

Okay diversity I believe

[5/10 · 8 February 2022]

Remember the scenes from home alone when one small kid single-handedly arrests two adult burglars, it's funny, entertaining and we all know it's just for fun and not real.

There is a scene there that is quite similar :)

Cobra Kai (2018–2025)

There was no rating above 10

[10/10 · 4 January 2022]

The idea, the cast, and the story is really great and i give that credit to YouTube, and Netflix picked it up pretty well and didn't compromise in any of that. Really looking forward to next season.

One side point, this series shows that you can make a successful TV without nudity, sex and unessessary mature content., so i hope to see more of this.

Don't Look Up (2021)

Nicely done

[8/10 · 25 December 2021]

The movie discussing political polarization and how in it's extreme form can be dangerous to limits beyond imagination.

It's a good comedy syfy movie and can be real, it sheds light on the downsides in media coverage in both sides, nice all star cast. Which helps in strengthening the weak story because its a satire story.

DiCaprio and Lawrence did extremely good acting, Streep did a perfect female Trump president.

Really good casting from Netflix.

The Matrix Resurrections (I) (2021)

independence day resurrection syndrome

[7/10 · 23 December 2021]

Unitl now any movie with the resurrection word kinda sucks for some reason.

So if you looking to see the matrix 4, you will be disappointed. But if you want to see a mediocre action movie you may like it but not so much.

No thriller in the movie, you can fast forward and miss nothing, in short it's a bad story and bad writing, they just wanted to make another matrix movie but didn't know how to do it right.

They should have at least respected the last three movies and did something that worth it.

Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)

I hope it's not the last one

[10/10 · 21 December 2021]

Best spiderman movie ever made and one of the top MCU movies. I really have nothing to add, marvel really out done itself this time.

Just hoped that they would have played the spiderman classic theme song, it would have been great too.

The Unforgivable (2021)

Good movie to watch but they couldn't do it all

[8/10 · 13 December 2021]

The movie is good, good acting, good story, and something about ex-con who are being punished twice or even more.

The story pace is not solid though, there could have been more to the second part of the movie and less to the first part, but the production was trying to do it all. So they fell short.

Could have been a a great mini series.

Star Trek: Discovery (2017–2024)

Change the writer or change the name

[2/10 · 7 December 2021]

Season 3 was bad except for the 900 years in the future thriller where you feel you want to know what happened, but when that is gone you are faced with season 4, now you have a threats beyond imagination and yet not well written or even imagined by the writer.

Actors are smiling most of the time while the galaxy is in great danger!! It's like the movie Airplane but without the comedy, just a marvelous world with lots of good people and innocents spirits and colors everywhere.

Starfleet quarters are like a fairy tale with blurred background, because 900 years in the future of the future itself is not easy to imagine, at least season 3 had some rough edges, but now everything soft, calm and colorful, if only the huge threat was not there we would be talking about a heavenly galaxy.

Cowboy Bebop (2021)

I didn't watch the original Anime

[10/10 · 4 December 2021]

One of the best series i ever seen, i hear it's exactly like the anime, so no adaptation or changes, i find that there is a lot of room for change and evolving that we could see a master piece, i would perfer that next season they dump the story and they get a new bounty for each episode it would be more fun while making a small room for the story.

La Brea (2021–2024)

It's always good to see a new Sci Fi

[8/10 · 4 December 2021]

I have seen it full and i am really looking forward to next season, hope they don't cancel it.

I always like time travelling series if you can call it that, and i always think there is not enough sci fi out there so i hope they can improve in the next season, it still fun to watch and good plot.

Hawkeye (2021)

Another great Marvel series yet

[10/10 · 4 December 2021]

After seeing the eternals, It's safe to say that Marvel will not be able to match the huge success of the avengers 20 movies, so they can really do really graet job in series.

Hawkeye is very fun, real good action for a series and has that marvel comedy that we missed..

Dune (2021)

Nothing new from 1984 version

[7/10 · 7 November 2021]

The remake version is an exact but prolonged version of the 1984 movie, that's why it's going to be in parts.

The visual effects are the main hero here but really i see an exact replica with less details than 1984 for those like me who didn't read the book.

1984 version really gives more details to the story.

Locke & Key (2020–2022)

There is still an opportunity for more

[8/10 · 7 November 2021]

This story in bad need of better writing, there is unlimited possibilities for this series to expand and get more 8 seasons of even another prequel series.

I don't know why writers hands are tied and why the very small scope, still it's one on the best series on Netflix and it could be far better.

Finch (2021)

So dogs are going to rebuild civilization!!

[6/10 · 7 November 2021]

It's amazing how a remarkable talent like Tom Hanks can lift a stupid story to be a really worth to watch movie.

Having said that, wasting time and talent on building a state of the art robot to protect a dog is really the same as wasting Tom Hanks on that movie.

But still you won't regret it if you still watch it, it's a fun journey although you can predict the end from the very beginning.

Eternals (2021)

Marvel: Let's try to see how sucking feels like

[4/10 · 7 November 2021]

So marvel hated success and decided to try how sucking feels!!

Two hours and half that can be told in 15 minutes, no deep characters personalities in most of the characters.

At least give them powers like the avengers, imagine one of the heroes creates illusions and and the other manipulates everyone minds except the enemies they are fighting, and the third has fast healing only!! So why anyone will send those to save anybody?!

The most powerful three of the eternals are as follows: a mentally disturbed lady, the actual villain, and wait for it, no, they killed third in the middle of the movie

I was literally feeling like i am watching a low budget sci fi movie, it's not a marvel movie, no chills no funny parts, no surprise.
