Puppet History (2020)
More Puppet History please!
I love this series! The obviously beloved host, the Professor is so endearing, yet you know there is something dark beneath his faux-fur muppety exterior. Ryan has the right amount of acidic wit to counter balance the Professor's enthusiasm. There is a musical guest each episode, and they are so talented! If you like a good story, trivia, banter, and puppets, well this show is your dream come true.
The Irishman (2019)
Almost great
I don't mind the length, I don't mind the "de-aging," but I couldn't get past the casting of Al Pacino as Hoffa and DeNiro as Sheeran. When Pacino was onscreen I just couldn't see anything but "Pacino being Pacino." Joe Pesci on the other hand was fantastic. He really disappeared in that role. I'm not saying Pacino was bad, I just think his role was too similar to others that he's had, so I couldn't get as immersed in the film as I would have liked. I love Scorsese, DeNiro, Pesci, and Pacino, so I don't have it out for any of them. It's just an honest and general review from a movie fan.
