The Strangers: Chapter 1 (2024)
Makes you wanna smash your screen
You end up in a town that has a population of 450ish people, everyone is staring at you like you fu*** their moms, you learn that there was a recently missing traveler, your car breaks down suddenly and you are offered an Airbnb in the middle of nowhere until your car is fixed by the most shady rude mechanic in that god forsaken staring town. You go to your secluded cabin and a strange girl knocks on your door asking for whatever just to stand far and stare at you. You decide to leave your soulmate in that house alone and go town to buy food ?????.
Your soulmate now is completely alone in the middle of nowhere, the same weird girl come back knocking on the door, alarming right?? You decide to be as loud as possible playing music, piano ignoring all signs and tops it with a shower where you are most vulnerable!!!. Electricity is off, the girl is not alarmed yet for some reason, search for the fuse box, sees a masked person, hides away until bf comes back on an old motorbike without making a single noise. Now you would assume that you are both alarmed right?
Wrong, they decide its been a long day plus weed you know, lets eat food and have fun !!!!
Now, you know that there is someone out there to get you and they were messing with you since you arrived and they've been already in the house so what do you do? You immediately head to kitchen to grab a knife and search for an exit right?
Wrong, you hide from someone with an axe in the bathroom that has a wooden door and no exit !!!!
Somehow you found a way out of the house, you would assume that whoever is hunting you, knows the house inside out and they are one step ahead of you so you decide to hide in the house shed !!!!!! Instead of taking you chances in the vast open forest.
You found a shotgun, thats it, you are taking your chances in the forest which make sense since both of you can cover all angles while escaping. NOOOOOO, you go back to the same house !!!
You are separated and you are now alone in the forest, you decide to run in a straight line as fast as you can like there is no tomorrow right ?
Wrong !!! You move as slow as possible !!!
Somehow you succeeded and hid from the killer , he/she didn't notice you and left, success right !!!! Nooo, you Leave your hiding place instantly to give them another shot at you !!!
The boy armed with a shotgun is in the forest looking for his soulmate knowing there is multiple killers out there, decides to scream her name as loud as he can!!!
None of the couple reactions in this movie makes any sense, in reality, the moment that girl showed up at your door staring at you would put any person, let alone couples in full alarm mode and most would have just left back to town, maybe spending the night in the town square until the morning, at least this is what me and my gf would have done without a second thought, i mean you already knows there is a missing person in this god forsaken town!!
3 Body Problem (2024)
Stupid at best
It started interesting but the plot deteriorated quickly. To name a few,
1. An entire high intelligence specie is invading earth because one in 7 billion people send them an invitation? I mean, what if no one answered, they would just die?
2. We know for a fact and based on our basic technology that there is 40 billion planet like earth. Why a high intelligent species would choose a very problematic planet like earth.
3. Since they monitor everything, they should know, by the time they arrive, we would have destroyed earth either by war, global warming ... etc. We are a self destructive specie, just give us time and we will do it for you.
4. There is five known extinction on earth that wiped out life completely, how earth is still a viable option?
5. A specie evolved in planet of three stars would definitely perish in a different environment. Humans are already struggling with few degrees increase of temperature due to global warming.
6. If they were a high intelligence specie, they would have incited wars by recruiting agents and rest assure we will wipe ourselves out and earth will be ready for them when they arrive. By sending us warning, they actually united the human race against them and accelerated our development.
7. Dont start with the lying thing. Even animals lies to hunt their preys. They claim to have studied our history, they should know better that our history was based on deception and lies since the beginning of time but they were shocked when they learn we lie from the red hood girl children story .. lol.
8. The part where they refused to send swat team to infiltrate the oil tanker fearing a bloodbath but decide to use an unstable nano fiber technology to cut through the tanker killing everyone and destroying everything including the hard drives. The oil tanker was going to some harbor to fuel, it literally moves at a maximum speed of 30km per hour and it is in god damn canal !!! It is not going anywhere anytime soon. They had all the time in the world to plan their infiltration.
9. The stupidest plan ever to send a spacecraft and accelerate it using 1000 explosives !!!!. Couldn't they just use planets gravity like voyager 1 and 2 to reach high speeds. And what was the purpose of it all ? They are already in communication with the alien race. Its like having a mandatory meeting at the office where was completely feasible via zoom.
The Investigator: A British Crime Story (2016)
The Joke
This guy is so full of himself calling himself THE INVESTIGATOR!!! lol, he basically did not do anything other than reading and listening to the real investigators who did tremendous work in this case. throughout the series, you hope that he will stumble upon something of significance, a new revelation perhaps, but nothing of that sort, on the contrary, it will make you angry, so angry because someone else is trying to take the fame and glory of the other detectives who did the real investigation work.
Throughout the show he was trying so hard to get the husband to tell where the wife's body is to credit himself. He believed that releasing the first season will make such a huge publicity and drive either Russel or Patricia to confess thinking that this show will get attention like the other investigation series did on Netflix such as "making a murdered", of course, there is no comparison. That failed tremendously.
There was also the part where he said that the other detectives did not take Russel's confession of the murder seriously because they thought he is a manipulator, so he goes all the way to test the fire theory "here you would say, that's it, he is into something" just to realize that the other detectives were smarter than this clown, and Russel was manipulating him back and forth. I only hope they didn't kill the pig to test his theory !!!
In my opinion the real winner of this show is Russel who gave the show a bit of suspense and made fun of "THE INVESTIGATOR" throughout the show. I just cracked laughing when he was reading Russel's last letter.
Ash vs Evil Dead (2015)
Bring back the Old Days, Jump scare with a laugh on your face
I have to admit, i had high hopes for this show, only because Bruce Campbell "my favorite evil dead hero" is back. Usually, the pilot of nowadays shows fail to impress, they either succeed later or keep falling to their doom. The case is different for this one. The first episode was absolutely a blast. there was no unnecessary dialog, no boring characters, no bullshit. There is one clear fact about it. Evil is back and is not messing around or waiting. its coming with full weight. the episode is packed with amazing action, cheesy conversations and a lot of humor which is exactly what made the original movie a success. it will keep you entertain from start to finish, and leaving you wanting more. I'am looking forward to see the rest of the show. and i would recommend it to everyone.
From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series (2014)
Stay Away of Thus Utter Crap
to start with, i haven't seen the movies before. But after seeing this show, i regret that cause that 90 mins movie would have saved me 10 hours of crap. lets start with the boring characters, in the first episodes, we are introduced with flashbacks from the characters to explain how they are in this particular situation in the movie. for instance the bank robbery, i thought they will be a twist or something weird happened and interesting. it was the most boring robbery i ever seen, introducing some characters which were empty like the bank guard and the lady who they kidnapped. Have you seen Buffy the vampire slayer and Angel ? well the vampires-snakes like in this movie is a worse version of those in the aforementioned shows with funny teeth which look like a Halloween extension bought from Jumbo store for kids. one of the vampires (Carlos) is roaming the city with gloves on (the sun burn his hands) but his face is totally revealed and it seems OK, the sun thing works only on hands for some reason. The two brothers have 30 million dollars stolen and for some reason this money is very important for some high rank vampires in the end, which was utterly stupid cause those vampires literally can kill anyone they want and shape-shift to his appearance. So why would i be interested with this money where they could have killed that bank girl and shape-shift to her and steal the money ? or for that sense any rich person in the world !!! The stupid labyrinth that you have no idea how big it is, they just show you rooms and tunnels, and for some reason characters keep finding themselves in it. that dude who was living in that labyrinth for months but they never explain how he survived in small room uh (toilet, water, food) ? The Human grinder which actually connect the Bar with the labyrinth for some unknown reason Lol. why they will be an exit for a human grinder ? why it has a place where you can actually stand where the whole point if grind corpses ? obviously the corpses will be stuck at that small stand and someone has to go and push them to the grinder every now and then. The annoying Girl that keep calling Seth half of the show !!! and who the hell is The nine lords of the night ?? Lol i can go on and on, I just wasted 10 precious hours of my life. Please if you are reading this review do yourself a favor and stay away from this show. i have no idea whats wrong with the other too many positive reviews. i took the bait i guess.
Lost River (2014)
A Fail Attempt
I was intrigued by the trailer, specially after seeing Ryan Gosling name as the Director. To be honest, i wont go into deep analysis like other reviews did. I don't like to go searching after watching movies in forums to see if i missed some hidden twists or meanings as i have very little free time. to make it short, just read the description of the movie in the website and that much about it. it was more like a visuals show off. there isn't much going on in the movie. the plot is so predictable with no twists or anything surprising. in my opinion, it was a fail attempt to mimic the feel of the movie Drive, i didn't actually cared about the characters in the end. i thought there will be a twist to the plot to give meaning or value for the actions the characters made but nothing happened. I gave this movie a 2 for the visuals, and to Ben Mendelsohn since he had the best performance in this movie, other than that my advice is to invest your time in something else.
Dominion (2014)
Not worth Watching
i've been watching series for quite sometime, and i can say this show had potential in the first episode just to turn out to be dull and poorly written. let me say first all this going on about the so called VEGA the city and how they are protecting it.. i can say after 8 episodes i don't give a *** about VEGA. they never introduce the city to us. how big it is and how much population it has. beside that the only line of defense we saw in the city is just a COUPLE of automatic machine guns, seriously !!! we only knows the city through few characters which are all the leaders of the city, yet no one knows how they achieve that rank and how much people really out there support each one of them. no one seems to care about the loss of human lives inside the city as the senator kills, David kills, Michael kills in front of the chosen one and that makes him only angry. we are talking about swarms of fallen angels who has the ability to fly. how they cannot defeat the humans where they infiltrate almost everywhere. Gabriel been caught and almost every one in the prison support him, he can wipe out the city just like that. the whole series is Hollow and everything important supposedly in the show was poorly introduced or it wasn't at all. the character development was so poor and you actually care about no one in the show. no one is interesting enough for you to observe. is just plain boring !!
