NCIS: Los Angeles: A Line in the Sand (2018)
TERRIBLE!
I read earlier reviews and I was going to skip this entire season but my daughter talked me into watching it just once. BIG MISTAKE!! Nia Long is a terrible actress and a complete mistake to have her on this show. Watching the season I thought maybe it would get better, nope! It just got progressively worse. EAD Mosley was the atypical power hungry bi$&@ that bullies and abuses everyone that dares disagrees with her. She deserved to be prosecuted and thrown in prison for her abuses and for getting Hidoko killed. I wish I had skipped season 9 completely. It really doesn't give any pertinent information for any of the characters so you won't miss much not watching this.
The Private Eyes (1980)
Excellent
I was living in the Sequoia's for work and my roommates and I drove into town once a month to shop and go to the movies. We went to the theater and saw this movie on the big screen. We were laughing so hard and loud one of my roommates boyfriend covered our mouths. I immediately bought it when it came available. I wish it was on a streaming service. I raised my children watching it and now my granddaughters. It is very well done and just the kind of comedy you expect from Don Knotts and Tim Conway. Buzzard pus gets me even now, 43 years later!😂 It's a good whodunnit and well worth your while. I hope it gets rereleased so I can buy more dvds, yet, I prefer a streaming service.
Chicago P.D.: Due Process (2021)
Messed Up
Because a criminal yells, "excessive force" he walks free with money in his pocket. I'm with Hank. If you're being accused of something might as well make it true. This is an excellent episode but it can make you angry at how we as a society pussyfoot around thugs and losers because we might offend them. A rabid dog can not recover, you just do the nice thing, put him down. This episode points out how criminals have more rights than the victims and how the courts have tied the hands of police officers. I'm hoping that the show goes back to it's origins and political correctness be darned. Otherwise, it is a good show.
Alert: Missing Persons Unit (2023)
INREALISTIC!!
Stupid! I tried watching this show but it is BAD!! Anyone that has a brain knows that a DNA test would be done to determine if Keith was actually their son and the mom, Dania Ramirez is beyond annoying. Besides her being a terrible actress but she is way over the top! Scott Caan should have stayed with Hawaii 5-0. His acting isn't as bad but it's pretty close. The stories have so much potential but the personal storyline of the parents just totally ruins it. Stay away from this show! I can usually overlook unrealistic shows but a family taking a kid back after missing for 6 years with nothing more but a smile and the victims say so.
Violent Night (2022)
Hilarious!
I hesitated watching this movie but so glad I did. A whole NEW perspective of Christmas and commercialization. I'm watching it again right now. My favorite Christmas movie after Die Hard😉. If your squeamish do not watch this. I had to turn away at a couple of parts but the bloody scenes didn't get to me, just body functions did.
Best Christmas movie (next to die hard *wink wink*). Great casting, awesome storyline. Just watched it last night and again right now! If you're squeamish, you may want to avoid or you may have to look away for a good part of the movie, and the best parts at that. I love the twist on Santa and getting into his background. Definitely a movie that will be watched many times over.
Chicago Med: Secret Santa Has a Gift for You (2021)
Dump Archer
What is it with show writer/casting directors? They finally got rid of Dr Manning but they got even worse with Archer! He is one of those p@&$)( that believes people can control their mental illness and the ED is not McD's, in 30 minutes or less. The only saving Grace in this show is Dr Charles, Ms Goodwin and Maggie.
Chicago Med: Guess It Doesn't Matter Anymore (2020)
Bye Manning
The episode was good in parts but they really should have dumped Dr Manning a long time ago. She is so selfish, self-righteous and a bit unhinged. She should have been fired a long time ago! It would have been better to keep Dr Rhodes. I like Maggie a lot but she has gone over the top (forging Natalie's signature in the previous episode). And what's with the blonde robot?
Chicago Med: Backed Against the Wall (2018)
Zero stars
I would give this episode zero stars if I could. I'm sick of these "politically correct" writers and tv shows have become. Another show to put on my do not watch list, along with FBI, FBI Most Wanted, NFL and all other major sports. You are here for entertainment, not to be my conscience.
Chicago Med: The Poison Inside Us (2018)
Wow!
It's a higher rating than episode 4. I gave it a one star because I couldn't get any lower. I'm not in the medical profession and I know how ridiculous this episode was.
Angels in the Snow (2015)
Very Good
The first time I saw it I didn't like it. So, I watched it again and so much of it makes a lot more sense! It is a good movie and shows how a dysfunctional family can change.
Chicago Fire: Don't Hang Up (2021)
Agreed
I have to agree with other's that have said this episode is just stupid. Not to call the police right away and a guy in a tree at least 15 feet in the air. I have been binge watching this and I like the fact later years there is less politics but the episodes are just dumber. I'm glad Casey is leaving because he is a grade A a$(ho$&. It helps not having Dawson but it's time they dump Matt Casey. I'm done watching. It may not make a difference with the show but it's no more mind numbing for me.
La Brea (2021)
Lost meets Middle Earth
The commercials looked promising but it is bad. Yes, i watched to see if was any good but.... I like Jon Seda as an actor but he should have stuck with Chicago PD.
9-1-1: Peer Pressure (2021)
Vanessa Williams has got to go!
Terrible episode! The arrogance of Ms. Williams character and the belief she's the only one that knows what do to and Harry's disrespect...he deserved that slap! It's was lame without Chimney and Maddy. Writers/Creators need to take a page out of Chicago Fire.
Chicago P.D.: New Normal (2018)
Antonio needs to go
I have been binge watching but Antonio should have been the one to die in prison. I'm done with this show.
The Equalizer (2021)
Great
I watched this with a little trepidation because of the other reviews but am glad I did! I'm so glad that it has been renewed for a second season. It's about time they had a show with a strong woman.
Kill Order (2017)
Bad!
This movie is so bad I would rather watch The Recall for 5 hours and it was bad!
Peppermint (2018)
Sweet karma Justice!
I loved this movie! She meted out the justice so many of us would like to see when so many get away with a slap on the wrist.
Hamilton (2020)
Modern Musical
I have never been a fan of modern musical productions but got hooked on this one. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Bringing history to life with modern hip hop.
My Spy (2020)
Not Precocious, BRATTY!
I attempted to watch this movie since I love David Bautista. Don't waste your time. Just another movie with a rotten kid and stupid adults. Glad I didn't waste money buying it.
Dawn Rider (2012)
Not historically accurate
If you're looking for historical accuracy don't watch this film. I actually really enjoed it. Donald Southerland gives a solid performance. It waz different and had some good humor. Lochlyn Munro as always is solid as a bad guy, and Jill Hennessy was beguiling. I'm not a fan of Christian Slater but he was pretty decent. For a light, not havinv to think movie, this is the ond for you.
Heaven's War (2018)
NOT for children!!
I highly enjoyed this movie. Yes, it can be cheesy at times but if you are a believer it is a realistic depiction of spiritual warfare that takes place around us. If you are not a believer, or if you don't think there is a war going on for your eternal soul than this is not the movie for you.
Christmas Break-In (2018)
CUTE!
I gave it a higher star to bring up the numbers. This movie is actually very cute. Very refreshing from the Home Alone movies due to the fact the little girl is NOT a rude, mouthy brat. I have watched twice, with my daughter and granddaughter.

Jerusalem Countdown (2011)
Not Hollywood!
For those giving low ratings, this is NOT a Hollywood movie. So, if you are watching it for blood, sex, violence, political gain, you won't find it. This is a CHRISTIAN film, made by Christians starring Christians. If you are not a believer and Hollywood is what you are looking for you will be disappointed. I personally like the movie and have watched it several times. Yes, these actors are not big stars but if it reaches even one person than it is worth it.
The Rookie: The Ride Along (2018)
Excellent
I went in very critical of watching this shiw but I LOVE it. Nathan Fillian really sells it. I would recommend this fir anyone.
