Supergirl (2015–2021)

Another terrible CW show

[2/10 · 22 February 2021]

Awful CGI, terrible scripts and acting by actors that should have easily done better. One of those shows that ran for too long and it felt like they were writing episodes on the fly.

Prison Break (2005–2017)

Only just started watching this now - 2020

[3/10 · 5 July 2020]

The idea was promising but oh my word what a joke of a show, plot holes galore and stuff that just doesn't make sense. I'm only on episode 18 on season 1 and trying to stick with it but it actually makes you laugh at how bad it is at times. How did they get 5 seasons from this?

Hello Ladies (2013–2014)

Such a lovely series

[9/10 · 4 December 2019]

Just an all round great show, entertaining but at the same time you feel so sorry for Merchants character. Do yourself a favour and check it out. I wanted them to make more series but can understand that the story completed its arc and they stopped rather than completely flog it.

2012 (I) (2009)

Cheesy, Clichés galore, just awful

[3/10 · 21 March 2010]

OK, this is my first review on IMDb but I felt I just had to leave one for this movie. I knew it was always going to be a bit cheesy having seen the trailer and coming from Roland Emmerich we sort of know what to expect but what I didn't expect was the sort of cheap script that came along for the ride. The movie is full of silly lines, every cliché that you can possibly imagine and more! I didn't mind 'The Day after Tomorrow' but this is a step backwards. The effects are good but after a while you just think 'yeah OK, another building falling over'. The film is probably 1/2 hour too long and the whole Russian billionaire & family is just pointless with some terrible acting. It honestly in parts is embarrassing and you feel sorry for the likes of Thandie Newton and the stupid character that Woody Harrelson plays.

Yes it's quite a ride and it's a movie that's made tongue in cheek (I hope) but just too much all in one go. Very, very disappointing.

Tangle (2009–2012)

Fantastic show, throughly entertaining

[9/10 · 26 November 2009]

Hats off to Southern Star on this series, so entertaining and the title is spot on :) What a tangled mess of relationships. Nothing flashy about the series just a gritty Australian drama following the lives of half a dozen families. Justine Clarke, Ben Mendelsohn and Kat Stewart are excellent. The first series has just finished and I really hope they bring it back for another one as it left on a bit of a cliffhanger. Shame it's not available for everyone to see on commercial TV but Channel 7, 9 or 10 would only wreck it with product placement and adverts.

Having missed all of Love My Way I'm glad we caught this one from the start.
