Review of a review (sorry)
akicork16 December 2022
I really have a problem with "nehbor"'s reviews, and don't believe he should be allowed to clutter up IMDb's user space. Other regular reviewers such as LittleSongBird have a similar boilerplate approach to their contributions, but, although it irritates me, their contributions are open minded and often helpful. In spite of his prologue, I don't believe that Mrs nehbor has much to say in the content of his contributions. In this episode, right from the start I have a problem. As his first unhappiness, he complains about pebbles in shoes. Who has not had that problem? I had to shake out my left shoe this morning because there was a piece of grit in it. Then he is apparently upset because SECNAV, whose daughter has just been kidnapped, repeatedly tries to contact her. Who would do anything different? He then descends through several layers of oddity to his Final Cut - that SECNAV is a traitor because she values her child above her job. Right. I'm sorry, but I can't help feeling that in writing this and other reviews nehbor has been somewhat acting under the alfluence of incahol. By the time he gets to damning the Founding Fathers to Hell, I'm fairly convinced of it. One of the things I am most set against in IMDb is ad hominem attacks: any public presentation is the result of a team: actor, director, makeup, hair, costuming and many others. So what the audience sees is not the character of any one element of that team, and should not be judged as any one individual within it. However, this is someone attacking from the outside. This is someone who seems to be determined to dislike anything he sees. "nehbor" is insensitive, misogynistic, and a bully. When his wife decides to flee from him, she will have my support.

Gibbs Proves His Anti-American Loyalty

React 13.15

My wife and I. We both have theatre background. And we're not about to launch into a boring six paragraph dissertation on any TV show or movie. We would like to think that our light-hearted, semi-non sequitur reviews based upon the silly MST3K model might be enjoyable for some. WE get a kick out of it ; ).

8-stars. Everything starts with an 8-star rating.

So: Like, how does a pebble jump into a girl's loafer?

So: Like, why does SECNAV continue to panic dial her daughter?

So: Like, why doesn't Dean roll the few feet into the parking lot where he would be found sooner? We think he's the kidnapper.

7-stars.

So: McGee no longer plays video games?

We think Mister SECNAV must be impotent. Why else does he act that way?

Wow. SECNAV has a $3 million home. Kickbacks much? Maybe from that dumb underwater closet idea in the last episode?

6-stars.

A "bleach bomb" would have bleached Abby's hair.

At 18:14- Hollywood cliche #080: the kidnappers say: "don't call the police". But hey, the police get called anyway.

At 20:04- Hollywood cliche #133: there is always a problem with communications. No sense doing a walkthrough first.

5-stars.

Nobody's ever going to notice three white guys with short hair wearing trench coats just loitering around a money drop? No. No, they're not.

SECNAV'S daughter is the victim and only three agents are assigned to the money drop? Any other episode involving a high-value POI there would have been twice the number of agents along with snipers and police.

Umm, Abby? Bleach doesn't dissolve class rings? Right?

4-stars.

Umm, Abby? Every other episode bleach was used to destroy DNA evidence.

Umm, Fornell? Are you not, like, in NCIS headquarters? Are you not familiar with the process of tracing phone calls? You so pro, bro.

Ohh: So massive firearms inventory discrepancies don't warrant FBI investigations?

3-stars.

At 35:03- Hollywood cliche #269: fake duct tape gag.

"Why are you staring at my teeth"?

So: McGee headbutted agent Page during a kiss? Whatever.

2-stars

Yeah SECNAV. Quit your job because it's best for your family. You self-absorbed, unpatriotic biotch. Screw the USA. And screw you Gibbs. The Founding Fathers damn you both to hell.

1-star. This is our first 1-star rating for this series.
