Planes, Trains, and Christmas Trees (2022)
Absolute Cringe
Predictable scripts, awful acting, irritating music throughout.
Both storyline and it's very title have been lazily copied and modified from the amazing, Planes Trains and Automobiles movie starring Steve Martin & the unforgettable John Candy.
Unfortunately, many writers of today's era are so badly talented with zero creativity. Directors appear satisfied just to meet targeted budgets & deliver on time without ensuring the casts can act.
In 2023, what is it with the Hallmark concepts of having endless stupid music & audio effects during the entirety of today's movies??
Rather than Paramount, Prime, Netflix etc. Producing endless nonsense, it's about time they learned from the success of talented box office hits from the past and understand how movie making in recent years have become boring, predictable and somewhat pathetic.
To conclude.... Planes, Trains and Christmas Trees is perhaps one of the worst Christmas movies of all times.
Pixie (2020)
So disappointing
With such a good cast, expeditions were high but ufortunately, (like many modern day movies) the Pixie storyline failed to meet any credibility.
Gangster Irish family (with issues) v's mafia clergy, didn't quite hit it..
However, beautiful Irish coastlines & a few good actors did compensate for disappointment & cringe throughout.
That said, should anyone provide this movie higher than 5* either needs their head examined or should be advised to get out more..
A generous 2* rating is not only an overstatement but I'd rather stay at home & watch paint dry.
Sorry, but I cannot recommend......
Rebellion (2016)
Fantastic Series, Excellent Cast
Cannot comprehend how I'm 5 years late finding this series. Diverting from the usual republican leaders, it was delightful viewing how others contributed towards the Irish rebellion. Little did we think, 100 years later, our island would still be divided. Great show, highly recommend.
The Guard of Auschwitz (2018)
Worst Auschwitz Movie Ever
Pros: Just witnessed the worst acting ever.
Cons: Boring yet pathetic storyline, complimented with irritating music throughout.
Conclusion: Value your time on earth & skip this movie.
