Rosie Molloy Gives Up Everything (2022)

Everything is dreadful

[1/10 · 6 January 2023]

Everything about this is really dreadful.. The writing is so shockingly poor and thevacting is no better, which is a shame as I've liked everythingbrlse Sheridan Smith has starred in. Myself and my wife watched the first one and tried the second, but alas there was no improvement. Couldnt even tell you if it was a comedy or serious show. I can only imagine Ardal O'Hanlon asked to be killed off in the second episode to save himself further embarrassment.

Its almost as if the writer has tried doubly hard to put shock value into every sentence which has just ended up coming across as boring and unoriginal.

Stowaway (II) (2021)

Give it a miss

[1/10 · 25 September 2022]

Silly sytoryline and poor acting added together equals a ridiculously bad movie.

You knew what was going to happen long before it happened. I ended up watching it in three instalments just to get to the end. Infact i forget I still had watch the last twenty minutes until I was going through my planner a week later and thought I'll try to finish it now. I did and it was truly excruciating

You try writing a review and look for any redeeming features but there isn't any

Surely after making this film you would watch it back and then put it in the bin

In summary give it a miss, no point in wasting your valuable time.

Father of the Bride (2022)

Just...No

[1/10 · 12 August 2022]

They should have given this a different name, then no one would know it was a very poor remake.

If you listen carefully. You can hear the sound of the barrel being scraped.

The Desperate Hour (2021)

Dreadful

[1/10 · 17 May 2022]

Like A B movie.. Why would a talented actor like Naomi Watts agree to this drivel?

Surely a director must view the film back and see how bad it is. Reputation ruiner.

A Boy Called Sailboat (2018)

Can you give a film zero stars

[1/10 · 10 September 2021]

Boring film. I wanted to like it and I certainly tried. However it's a poorly shot and dreary film. Pretty nonsensical. How people have been conned into giving it rave reviews because its been billed as s feel good movie is beyond me.

Time (2021– )

Superior British drama

[10/10 · 2 August 2021]

This was an entrallling dark and compelling mini series The acting was top drawer from everyone. Stephen Graham and Sean Bean are among two of the finest actors around. Brilliantly written by Jimmy McGovern. What more do you need?

The Snowman (2017)

Unwatchable!!

[3/10 · 10 May 2021]

Being a big fan of the Harry Hole books i was looking forward to him coming to life on the big screen. Alas i just about managed half the movie before giving up. Just poor all round. The acting, the screen play.. Just no.

The Blacklist: Misère (2021) Season 8, Episode 14

No no no

[2/10 · 9 May 2021]

Ridiculous episode. Kean is irratating beyond belief. The show goes down everytime her character appears. Focus on Red.

Good Boys (2019)

Very funny

[9/10 · 30 November 2020]

Stop taking life too seriously.. I watched this with my wife hoping for a bit of a laugh.. We had a lot of laughs
