The Last Starship (2020)
Pilot
This was evidently a pilot. Did anything ever come of it?
Interesting enough to watch to the end and better than most current sci fy channel movies..but C grade. Especially because there was no ending...just hoping for more episodes so that the story could continue.
Loved the multi language structure...they relly wanted to sell this series somehere....an any country would do.
Dune (2021)
The 2001 miniseries is better
Poorly cast. The actor playing Paul is so feeble you have to watch all actions scenes from the back. And after you realize this it spoils the movie.
.... and Ive seen better rendering in video games.
But to give the director credir, it does follow the theme of the book fairly well.... and also tries to explore the characters and their conflicting emotional issues ( which unfortunately cant be done in a 2 hr movie).
In summary, its better that you go find the 2001 miniseries.
Angel and the Badman (1947)
One of John Wayne's best.
John Wayne will get a lot of bad reviews because his characters were pretty much all cast out of the same mold. But before you can remold, you need to make the mold. This was one of his early and better performances that also container a decent screenplay and other fine actors...and it established the western hero model for generations to come.
