Big Brother Canada (2013– )

Boring, Basic & Busted -- The Worst Version Of Big Brother

[1/10 · 31 August 2018]

I don't know what else I can say other than the title of my review here. This is for sure the worst version of Big Brother I have ever seen and I am including the low budget foreign ones with subtitles online and even the worst seasons of the atrocious "Celebrity Big Brother" show... this show is just boring, basic and busted.

Black Knight (2001)

As Average As A Movie Can Get

[5/10 · 31 August 2018]

This movie is as average as you can get. I like Martin Lawrence but the movie is pretty dumb, the story is predictable, the jokes are mostly lame. You know exactly what is going to happen with everyone and what all the jokes are going to be. But still it gives a few chuckles here and there and there's nothing really awful about it. Basically it's just a way to waste an hour and a half without having to think at all.

#INTRODUCTIONS (2015)

Terrible

[1/10 · 30 August 2018]

One of the most boring things I've ever seen. Half an hour that feels like two hours. Whoever pulled out the one minute "Just Do It!" section did the world a big favour because the rest of this is pure crap. Intensely boring, pointless and gets tale right away.

Who has been rating this 8.6/10? Are the only people rating this the students who wrote this crap?

Second Sight (1989)

Underrated

[10/10 · 30 August 2018]

I can't believe this is only rated 4/10! Sure it's not Citizen Kane or anything but it's great for what it is, a super silly eighties comedy. Plus it's got John Larroquette who is always awesome and also Bronson Pinchot, Balki from Perfect Strangers! It's really good.

Debbie Macomber's Dashing Through the Snow (2015 TV Movie)

Pleasant Christmas Special

[8/10 · 29 August 2018]

This is a pleasant Christmas special that the whole family enjoyed here. The acting is pretty good for one of these holiday TV movie type specials, and the writing and overall production and direction as well. Some good music too!

Terrormarketers (2005 Video)

Terrible-movie-ers

[1/10 · 29 August 2018]

These people should be called Terrible Movie-ers because this movie is terrible. It looks like it was shot on VHS tape, sounds like crap and the acting is the worst I think I've ever seen in anything ever. This is one of the worst things I've ever seen in my entire life ever. I hope this never gets screened again.

Downsizing (2017)

Boring and Stupid

[2/10 · 28 August 2018]

This movie was a huge disappointment for me. The premise is great but it's way too long, the plot points are way too predictable and the point it's trying to make is really obvious. The pacing was very slow without reason. It goes nowhere for a very long time. It can't decide what kind of movie it wants to be.

White Christmas (1954)

Christmas Classic

[10/10 · 28 August 2018]

This movie is a Christmas classic. I do get why some people don't like it, it's definitely kind of "sappy" and it has a very old school feel and older music... but that's what it's supposed to be. It's just a feel good Christmas movie with a nice happy story and some good Christmas music. Great singers, fine acting, a nice story, everything you need for the Christmas season, or any other time too.

Kingdom of the Vampire (2007 Video)

Borefest Snorefest

[1/10 · 25 August 2018]

This movie is a real bore and a snore. It is a remake of a movie that I haven't seen but still know is a million times better than this remake. The acting is bad, the story and direction are a joke, and the quality of the movie overall just is not very good at all.

The Walkers (2004 Video)

Evil Woods

[7/10 · 25 August 2018]

So these two bank robbers get lost in the woods and a sheriff and a newer cop pair up to go into the woods after them. It's all good except the woods turn out to be evil. Predictable horror ensues. Deserves a 5, bumping up to 7 because I know someone in this and the rating is too low right now. What do people expect from this low budget movie perfection? Lighten up people.

The Last Mile (I) (2013)

OK for Super Low Budget Zombie Movie

[5/10 · 25 August 2018]

This is an OK super low budget zombie movie. At least you can tell they are trying a lot and having lots of fun and really do care about what they are doing unlike a lot of other zero budget wannabe film makers.

Country Crush (2016)

Hard Pass

[1/10 · 25 August 2018]

This movie gets a hard pass from me. We couldn't finish it. The singing voices are fine but the movie is just plain nonsense. Like a minute in I'm thinking this is the typical sappy hallmark type cheap TV movie just maybe a bit cheaper with even lower level acting then suddenly it turns into a musical. It wasn't well directed or choreographed with real oddball scenes like seriously who sings there in that situation? Even for a musical it came off unreal and stupid. It is a very predictable story, the star is only in it for a very small amount of time, the singing was OK but the songs overall are quite forgettable, the story is paint by numbers, the acting is very weak, it just seems like amateur hour. Made it half way through but know exactly what was going to happen and just couldn't take any more. Bad TV movie.

Tuesdays and Thursdays with Michael (2015– )

Talk Show

[6/10 · 24 August 2018]

This is a good talk show. The host does a good job and is easy to listen to. The information explained is done well and the show's not boring.

Comedy Bar (2011– )

Interesting

[7/10 · 24 August 2018]

Interesting web series with some good jokes. Online and can be watched free, no registration or sign up required.

Sick Note (2017–2018)

Not Bad

[6/10 · 24 August 2018]

This show has a very good idea behind it but I didn't find it all that funny to be honest. I do like Rupert Grint though and he makes me smile if not laugh at the comedy in this show.

Live from Canada, It's Ed the Sock (2016–2017)

Best I Can Do Sadly

[5/10 · 24 August 2018]

Used to love ya Ed but five is the best I can do here. These videos are on youtube if you want to watch them but I wouldn't recommend it for any but the most hard core Ed fans since it is very low quality and kind of boring. It is in the front of a restaurant and not much going on.

Tom Green's House Tonight (2006– )

Too Bad

[5/10 · 24 August 2018]

Wish I could rate this higher but this show was pretty boring. Too bad. I like Tom Green a lot or at least used to but this show just wasn't his thing. He's kind of a boring host to be honest when he is just doing regular host stuff like other hosts and not crazy stunts and so on.

The Hilarious House of Frightenstein (1971– )

One of a Kind

[8/10 · 24 August 2018]

This show was a one of a kind. The main actor played so many of the roles by himself and the ones he didn't were also played by funny and good people, plus Vincent Price the all time horror legend was in it as the narrator. Such a strange and original show why can't they make more shows like this today?

Another WolfCop (2017)

Who Wanted This?

[2/10 · 24 August 2018]

Are there actually people out there who saw the first Wolf Cop movie and said it was so good they actually wanted to watch another one? Do these people really exist somewhere? The first one sucked and this one is even worse but that's no surprise at all. A pointless film nobody wanted or asked for.

Goosebumps (1995–1998)

Good Kids Show

[6/10 · 24 August 2018]

This was a good kids show. I'm surprised it didn't last longer because all the kids I knew liked it. There's a lot more shows like it now but back then there weren't many good "scary" shows for kids and this was one of the better shows that there were. Good stories and acting for a kid show.

The Adventures of Hammy the Hamster (1978–1980)

Nice Kid Show

[7/10 · 24 August 2018]

This was a nice kid show where hamsters were shown doing cute little things while the narrator told the story that they were "acting out". Pretty basic but it was fun and the hamster was obviously super cute, and his friends too. The stories had a moral and the kids would learn.

The Great Mouse Detective (1986)

Underrated Disney Classic

[10/10 · 22 August 2018]

This is a very underrated classic Disney movie, I am surprised how many people don't remember or never knew it even existed. It has a great story and awesome voice work, like Vincent Price as the villain, now how could you possibly get a better Disney villain voice than that? On top of that as usual there are lots of sings in this and guess what they are also great! There's even a couple great tunes by Vincent Price. The voice work is very good all the way around. At times the story is a bit darker than most kids movies by Disney but not too dark. The kids will love the dog too. Very good in every way and this movie deserves a lot more praise.

The Bonnie Hunt Show (2008–2010)

Good Talk Show

[6/10 · 22 August 2018]

This was a good talk show. I'm not a huge Bonnie Hunt movie fan or anything but she was a good, natural host you could see someone hanging out with and talking to. Don Lake is always fun to see too. Funny and not annoying which automatically makes this better than most of the other daytime talk shows including all the way more successful ones.

If I Ran the Zoo (1992 Video)

Why Rated So Low?

[5/10 · 22 August 2018]

I don't get the very low rating here. This isn't an awesome short video for kids but it's OK, it's basically just narrating the book while a kid narrates it and it shows illustrations from the book. The book is good and people like it so I'm not sure why the ratings here are so low. Deserves a 5 in my book.

The Kenny Hotz Radio Show (2013– )

Awesome!

[10/10 · 22 August 2018]

Yeeaaaaahhh Hotzcast! Make more of these shows I need it on my radio again and the youtube videos too
