The Boys: Department of Dirty Tricks (2024) Season 4, Episode 1

4 Declines

[6/10 · 19 June 2024]

I watch the first three episodes.

Several points.

Newman is converted into a joke, which is not ok. She was menacing in the last seasons even in gen v.

But now its joke personality. I know its driven by making contrast with Homelander, but its made good. The conflicts between newman and singer comes out of nothing.

Frenchie is femine man, but wasn't build as gay, he had love interactions with females mostly. At least I don't remember anything. His connection with the Female was good at the end of the season as I remember.

Annie and Firecracker conflict is not serious enough and building Annie like that is just bad.

Hughie and his mother I just don't get the plot line. It just weak for now.

Butcher seems the same.

A-train is good.

Reunion (2019)

Nostalgic

[10/10 · 16 January 2021]

I like it a lot.

It has that vibe, when you go back to your home town and see your old friends and how yours and their life has progressed, you remember your missed opportunities and find lost friendships. Some people even find themselves meeting their old crush and even and marry them.

Great work of Bashar and Niki, they should work together more often.

Rounds (2019)

Great look at the strugles of police officers

[10/10 · 1 May 2020]

I would say that this movie and the previous "Directions" are the best Bulgarian movies from the last 10-20 years.

The cast is amazing. The best actors in Bulgaria now.

The story is amazing. Couple of plots merging into one is amazing. Covers greatly the migration crisis, the coruption of police officers and their life strugles. It has humour, it has love, it has violence.

You should definitely try it. Also "Directions". The three groups of cars in the knights. Police cars, Taxies and Ambulances. Waiting to see the Ambulance chapter.

Sunny Beach (2021– )

Good idea, bad realization

[2/10 · 7 March 2020]

Acting Lead male actors are a doing fine, but they are not the greatest and cannot pull the whole series from the overall bad acting. The Female actresses are not doing good.

Story Not funny, not dramatic, overall you can skip it. It doesnt even fit in: "soo bad that is good".

Not enough gradation for the plot lines. You can see how the plotline is going to go and it just does it. You can see the plotline bad dad and son relationship and just happens. one episode they are fine, the next one they are at eachothers necks.

Gomes and its son - bad.

Hotel owner son and destroying its lead staff - bad

Hotel owner son and its debt - bad. It just happens no leading to it. One episode he is the greatest the other he is terrible.

Hotel owner son and the animator - bad.

The only plotline doing good maybe its with Gomes and the rich girl, but she is terrible actress.

Each episode maybe should be centered to a character not only Gomes and not randomly creating plotlines which just happen, and not enough drama, not funny enough, not enough gradation.

Sunny beach should be more included to create real environment or the hotel as whole. I am seeing the pool, the office and the lobby only. Which is not the hotel. This hotel is huge. Center it on the hotel as in "Hotel Eleon" or as a whole to "Sunny Beach"
