Worst to First (2017)
Why!? So many questions...
Cheesy, forced dialogue and horrific questionable design choices . . . Every episode of Season 1, had them continuously putting a stove / oven in a newly added peninsula or island - in an open floor plan design!!!!!? Separating the living area and kitchen by a giant, ugly "four sided" vent and a hot burning stove top! So tacky and absolutely useless . . . Makes no sense! And the forced drama of "finding" random issues with the purchased home (which would have been discovered during inspection and closing) . . . Can the two hosts just put down the tools (that they are obviously not using) and just make out already!?
Also, finally towards the end of Season 1, the boys got haircuts and neckshaves! Which really cleaned them up - giving them a more professional look and stature. Knowing how these shows work, wish it wasn't so obvious that 92% of the "new" items, furniture and kitsch, is removed and does not belong to the homeowner once the crew and camera leave. The craptastic paint and caulking jobs . . . Huge, glaring botches and a complete lack of attention to detail. Again, can the hosts just make out . . .
Le fate ignoranti (2022)
The perfect companion to the original film . . .
I have followed and loved Ozpetek's work for many years now (starting with His Secret Life / La Fate Ignoranti 2001) and this is the perfect expansion to his original film . . . Wonderful to see what was probably extended scenes and additional characters (and their relationships) explored and showcased; expanding the universe originally created by Ozpetek in His Secret Life . . . Making bolder and bigger choices - perfectly cast, directed and acted . . . Yet, the magic, in all of his storytelling and films, thrives from the music!! The Ignorant Fairies has one of the most beautiful scores, chalk full of original songs and music and now the TV Series, follows with perfect harmony with it's use of music - incredible score and soundtrack! It's been 20 years and to see all these incredible characters thrive and celebrate, in pain and confused, hurt, vulnerable and sharing joy and laughs - exuding love and forgiveness, is exactly what I need and I'm totally here for it!!
Robin Hood (2018)
Better than the reviews!
You have to truly suspend your disbelief and allow yourself to be entertained . . . Once you let go of your expectation and general knowledge of the Robin Hood tale and folklore and begin to listen to the "story" this movie is telling, you'll be pleasantly surprised and moved! I applaud this film - its vision, its imagination (or reimagination) and the audacity to take a risk on such a classic tale . . . Great action, wonderful music and really bad cheesy dialogue (what more do you want?!) all that and more, make this film very very enjoyable and entertaining! Ultimately, it's a group of artists, that came together and told you a story, in their own unique and creative way!! Incredible costuming (I'll admit, jarring at first but still brilliant), massive and impossible stunt and fight choreo and some downright impressive cinematography amd sound design . . . Dark, adventurous and arousing - good fun!!!!
