3/10
One of worst endings to a film ever..
11 December 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Starts off pretty good, first hour builds the tension, leaves your wondering what's going on, who can be trusted, etc.. few plot niggles narked me, like why is every Tesla white and how many do the local dealers have in stock.. given their limited range they can only have all come from the local area and they all come from the same direction.. also why does everywhere have blackouts except where they are??

Then the the second hour it stalls big time, nothing really happens in hour 2, its all just filler, idle chit chat, then you wait the last half hour or so waiting to find out what's going on, who's behind it etc, and you find out basically nothing, and for me the end is just one of the worst in cinema.. credit's appeared and I was like, whhaaat is that it??

A total anti climax and waste of 2 hours..

Not the same
1 September 2023
Yeah ok so it's got Raylan Givens in it, but it's just another generic cop series and for me is just not the same without all the other characters and the settings, that made the original series what it was.

Have been eagerly looking forward to this for ages since i first read they were bringing it back, and even made me rewatch the original in full to remind myself, but was left disappointed and really struggled to get into it.

Part of the attraction of the oriiginal was the constant tension and fiction between Raylan & Boyd, and without all that, this one just doesn't click.

Average at best.

Random story cashing in on the franchise
1 October 2021
Total waste of two hours. Nothing really happens that you need to know..

As my old man used to say, well that was something about nothing!!

Taken for tv
25 April 2020
Basically this is Taken with all the action scenes written out. Disappointing ending.

Too many flashbacks
13 March 2020
Every episode constantly and randomly jumps back and fore from real time to flashbacks and back again with no notice, making the narrative quite difficult to follow.

Boring

I normally like Mark Wahlberg, but this was boring. It dragged along and struggled to hold me..

Star Trek: Picard (2020–2023)
6/10
Boring
15 February 2020
Was excited for this, and have found it totally boring. 4 episodes in and hardly anything interesting has happened. Full of boring flashbacks and backstory. All this series has done, is introduce the F word to the classic STU, and it feels out of place to hear it.

Giving up on this...

Doesn't live up to the hype..
13 January 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Things seemed to be going ok with this, until the "I vomit when I lie" part. Then it lost me, that's some crazy lazy writing and spilled the whole movie from then on..

Meh
11 October 2019
Was ok, but didn't really see the point!! Didn't really add anything that we needed to know, and he looked about two stone heavier considering he'd been kept prisoner, they could have made him lose a bit of weight for the role.

Avoid
28 September 2019
Wife just forced me to sit through this with her. Comes to something when literally the funniest part of a film is when a hotel room is called Suite Caroline.

Refreshing change to the genre
30 July 2019
Starts off great, middle few eps dip a bit, but then finishes on a high. A refreshing take on the supe genre. Looking forward to more of the same..

Implausible plot, overly long, drags on a bit, and not at all funny, didn't even raise a smile.. But watchable..

Terrible
29 July 2019
Wasn't able to even finish the first episode. What drivel!

Send a bunch of twenty somethings from love island on the most important mission in human history dressed like they going clubbing??

Perform a dangerous acceleration manoeuvre around a star, all standing up!!

Two way hologram messaging across 8 light years in real time with no delay!!

Who wrote this?? Avoid!!

Interesting show that teaches too..
9 December 2018
Came home one night to my son watching this, and found it really interesting, I don't normally like reality shows featuring Joe public, but quickly became a fan and have learnt a lot just from watching.

One thing that bugs me though, the way every judge constantly asks "You ready?" before every single test!!
