The Chosen: Sustenance (2023)
Season 3, Episode 8
Incredible
12 February 2023

If you don't shed at least one tear in this episode, especially near the end, then you're a psychopath. The way this episode portrayed the struggle between Simon, Jesus and Eden is very well done. The heartbreaking tragedy that is Eden's miscarriage and Simon's doubts of Jesus's benevolence is told at a very appropriate pace, and the lesson that's revealed as to why we suffer and why we struggle being to strengthen us really resonated with me. The cherry on top would be Simon's actor's acting skills here. Remarkably moving and a real tear-jerker. I also absolutely love that they included several amazing miracles in this episode. This is how every season finale should be for this show. Splendid. Can't wait for season 4.

Stowaway (I) (2021)
Interesting beginning, ok middle and terrible end
22 April 2021
Warning: Spoilers
No explanation for Michael being "stowed away" even though that's the entire interesting point of this movie. This entire movie is basically about deciding who should die (in a group of 4) in order to have enough oxygen to reach Mars, since they only have enough for 3 people. That's it. Near the end, turns out they only have enough oxygen for 2 people instead of 3, but somehow one cannister of O2 is enough for the third person for months (??). And in the end, Zoe just flatout dies via sacrifice. Overall extremely underwhelming plot and character development, especially for a two hour movie about nothing.

I'd give it a 1/10 but the acting was decent and atmosphere was good, that's about it. That's why I rate it 2/10.

Don't waste your time.
