Bones: Pilot (2005)
About the senate scene
My baseline vote for the overall show is 7. Given when I used to watch it as it aired on tv.
6 is given because and to record particularly bad moments. Like in the pilot. When bones is speaking to the senator.
Usually the camera will focus on the person that is doing the talking. So in a conversation, the camera will switch from one person to the other depending on who's talking. This is What usually happens in the show as well. Except in this scene.
Maybe they had to dub in Some dialogue or something... But in the senate scene the camera does the opposite. The results is so jarring it's impossible not to notice.
Supernatural: No Exit (2006)
Pretty lame twist at the end
The episode overall is pretty mediocre. Sad one-liners from Jo and Sam's basically not in the episode.
Jo's reaction at the end is so forced. I read this on other reviews as well. It would have been so much better if Jo turned out to be Sam and dean half sister or something. I thought it would go this way from the very beginning, with the awkward romance between the two. As the story went on the jokes were getting a little out of hand and I was starting to think it would have been weird at that point if they were actually related. Still. Opportunity missed for a half decent plot twist. Certainly better than what we got.
Oh and...
"I should have cleaned my pipes"
...
Just wtf. So out of place.
Avatar: The Way of Water (2022)
Repetitive
I fell like it could have been shorter. Lots of nonsensical decision making from the main characters causes repetitive situations (with one character even stating: I can't believe i'm tied up again?! Like saying it makes it less cheap).
Because I couldn't care less about the "look how beautiful this is" scenes I disliked this movie more than other people. I'm sure if you like to watch pretty colours you'll give it at least an 8.
Also it is hard to just dismiss how much of a cash grab this movie is. In the sense it is the pinnacle of the let's make a decent movie and milk it with sequels trend that has plagued recent releases.
The song composer whale made me crack up quite a bit too be fair.
Altered Carbon (2018)
I gave it an 8/10 a long time ago. Sadly I had to come back and change it
Season 2 is total trash.
The story has never been that great but in the second season is downright garbage.
The characters and actors portraying them were way better in the first one.
The targeted age group dropped significantly.
So much more to complain about.. it's not even worth it. At least it made me want to rewatch season 1. Well played Netflix.
The Witcher (2019)
8.3???????
After seeing the good score I gave it a shot. I am at episode five and I already feel like I've been wasting my time. Did you get paid to give such high scores? How is it possible? This is objectively a mess... maybe not 1 star but I dont want other people to be tricked by the high score!
The Man in the High Castle (2015)
40 hours of content? 10 are good.
Apart from Smith character arch (excluded the ending, it was clear the author had no idea how end this mess) and chief inspector kido arch, the story is Thor great. Visiting germany was cool and sometimes the resistance showed potential. Very rarely though. Now that being said.
Damn BCR. It was the less appealing resistance group ever. Let's kick the japs and open the flood gates to the nazis.. so smart. Thank god they had a strong plot armour.
The burned Jewish guy I don't even remember his name, was such a despicable character. Tagomi became ridiculous because of the fantasy part of this story. The "fantasy part" the alt world part feels very cheap (apart when smith goes in the alt world, it was interesting seeing him interact with his son. Sadly he doesn't learn anything) , a deus ex machina for the lack of creativity of the author. It is much harder to bring on a realistic dystopian world than to create some random magic stuff. Finally the man in the high castle himself nothing special just as much of the story. 10 out of 10 Smith story. 10 out of 10 Kido. 6 Tagomi. 2 Juliana. - 30 BCR. -100 the damn burned guy.
