Squid Game: The Challenge (2023)
Not as bad as I thought..
So this is a game show, and they should tell you that in the beginning of the show, in episode one minute 1, rather than the bait with "I don't want to die" thing. However, it's obvious the players are coached by production to be obnoxious. ... or are we just that bad? I can't think so.
Anyway, The games are alright and the reconstruction of the original set is pretty great. I do feel like I'm watching a watered down Mr. Beast video at times and wondering if it's worth it. The over acting is really awkward, and maybe the people are like this, I don't know. Other than that, it's worth watching!
Dope Sick Love (2005)
A true look at addiction
This movie provides a real look at what addiction and life on the streets can be like. I'm sure some of the scenes were partially stages, or re-recorded to protect identities, but other than that, this is as real as it gets.
Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story (2007)
Unexpectedly funny
I don't recommend many films, and comedy's are last on list to show friends.. but this movie is not only extraordinarily hilarious, but a good story is intertwined in and is at the top of my suggestions. A man could live his entire life on Walk Hard and Big Lebowski alone.
It is a bit lengthy and you may not get through it on your first watch, but do no give up! Come back another day and give it another go; you won't be disappointed. I've taken 1 star off from 10 to 9 for the some times where the movie doesn't retain your focus, but it always hits back right up to the end. Don't forget to watch the credits.
