King of Collectibles: The Goldin Touch (2023)
Only for collectors
This repetitive jump cutting overacting boring nonsense that will only appeal to memorabilia collectors, For the casuals just fast forward to the last 5 minutes and the first five minutes of each episode to see something mildly entertaining, the rest is just a commercial for this company.
There's nothing more to say about this so I'll repeat myself, to make the message quota.

Ambulance (2022)
A Michael Bay version of Heat, but obviously nowhere near as good.
This is how I would imagine Michael Bay would have made the film Heat (1995) if he got his hands on the screenplay before Michael Mann. Cut out all the meaningful character development and heart of the screenplay and spent most of the money and time on set pieces and crazy shots. The story is basically dumb as hell, but I don't go to watch Bay films for the story. There is a phrase used in Hollywood called "Bayisms," which is basically what this film is, from start to finish. It's not "Bad Boys" or "Pain and Gain," arguably Bay's best films. It's Bay doing what he does best, using all the tools at his disposal.
If, like me, you sometimes just want to watch shootouts, large explosions, and crazy chase scenes, this could be your cup of tea. If not, you'll probably dislike this film. This is popcorn-brain-turned-off high-octane madness that makes very little sense but is exactly what you'd expect from Michael Bay. You have been advised or warned whichever suits.
On a Wing and a Prayer (2023)
Not as bad as the ratings and negative reviews suggests
We all understand that films based on true events often add in extra drama and storylines to extend the running time and Hollywood it up. And because of this, many people have posted negative reviews. Many actual events were left out, and many fictional ones were put in; after all, this is Hollywood, and unfortunately, that's what they do. Probably the most egregious departure from the real event was the Denis Quaid version of Doug White. Doug is a more experienced pilot and was far more in control and confident during the actual event than the fictional Doug.
However, and this is the main point I'd like to get across, Doug White was involved in the making of the film with regards to the screenplay and became good friends with the writer, and in turn, gave it his blessing. So, who are we to judge? After all, it is his story; he lived it and survived it.
This is a good old-fashioned family suspenseful drama with positive affirmations about family and religion that are sadly not seen in most modern films. I'm not a religious person, but even I would start praying and thanking the Lord if I were in this situation. Let's face it; we all would. So, I believe many people will enjoy this film.
I would never tell someone to watch or not watch a film; that's entirely up to you and what your preferences are. However, I would like to suggest you check out some of the many YouTube videos that use the actual audio and flight data to recreate the 50 minutes or so that were recorded from ATC of the flight itself. This may add that extra sense of realism to your viewing experience, but I'll leave that up to you. I watched the real version of events on YouTube before I even knew there was a film and still enjoyed it, even though I knew what was real and what wasn't.
Coming 2 America (2021)
Eddie is held to a higher standard and this doesn't deliver unfortunately.
I'll keep this short and sweet, this film was more about look how young we all look after 30 odd years and damn Netflix pays well lets have a party. Then actually making a film of quality. Like so many people have already said it was very disappointing to watch and I would of preferred if I never did.
The first one is still a comedy masterpiece, so it was always going to be an uphill battle but they didn't even try here. Still love Eddie and you can't win them all.
Into the Storm (2014)
It's an exciting disaster film, don't listen to the haters
It's an over the top disaster film which is exactly what you want a film like this to be, great effects and will keep you on the edge of your seat the whole time.
If you're like me and don't take films like this too seriously you'll probably enjoy it.
7500 (2019)
Boring hell no! Intense hell yeh!
I'm reviewing this film based on what I believe the filmmakers wanted to achieve by making it, a gritty claustrophobic real-life account of the brutal hijacking of a commercial airline. And that is exactly what I saw, this is not a Hollywood film nor does it have a big budget but that's exactly why it works. One has to look at this film for what it is and not what you may be expecting it to be. If you look at this film solely from the point of view of the co-piolet which is what the film is about then you'll understand that it's not trying to tell a political story or give you insight to why people hijack planes.
The runtime is 90 minutes and I was never bored during this entire time. I felt every emotion the protagonist felt and I was totally involved in his plight. No film is perfect and this film is no exception but it made a favourable impression on me that I felt the need to leave a review.
This is a little gem of a film and definitely worth 90 minutes of your life if you like these small gritty intense sorts of films.
Most of the negative reviews are based on opinions that have nothing to do with storytelling. I would bet that nearly all of the negative reviews came from people who didn't actually watch the film.
Interactive Introverts (2018)
Clearly this is for tween's, adults not allowed.
I have no clue what was going on with this, two lads standing on stage and pretty much doing nothing but all this tween's in the audience were screaming every time one of the lads said something, at 35 this all went over my head. What is the world coming too, this made no sense. There was no comedy no action no sense It was utter rubbish. I would love someone to explain to me what the hell was going on.
The Predator (2018)
Simply put this is dumb.
Nothing more needs to be said this is a dumb film and there's nothing wrong with that but if like me you do not enjoy dumb films then you'll probably want to give this a miss.
People Magazine Investigates (2016)
No conclusion
My main issue with this series is that none of the episodes have a conclusion, the crimes are left unsolved which kind of defeats the purpose of a show like this.
This sort of story telling will leave you frustrated and ultimately make you watch a much better show like Homicide Hunter: Lt. Joe Kenda.
Having said that this might suit some viewers, so it would be worth watching a few episodes if you love crime series to see if it's your cuppa tea.
