Asteroid City (2023)
Great cast! Dry Story
Astroid city is not your typical film. It's about a widowed man with 4 children; 3 young daughters (all under age 8) and a gifted teenage son. They travel to Astroid City because the son is going to receive an award for his science project.
It takes a special person to appreciate the films writing and design. There isn't twists and turns, only a few bends. It is reminiscence of a film from the 80s. We were fortunate to have someone in the theater laughing out loud. Without that person we would have fallen asleep or left. It's irrelevant that it had an amazing cast. Unfortunately, the story was not so amazing. Regrets,
The Magicians (2015)
Binge Worthy
This show is clever, interesting and will leaving you wanting more. Episode one sets you up for the main characters and their limited backstory. Episode 1:2 is intriguing and you'll find yourself saying "ok let's see where this goes!" As you get into every season it's like watching dominoes fall and you finish you can't stop watching. Season 3 and 4 were by far my favorite with the exception of the musical scenes. Yep, spoiler alert. A few episodes have a very "Glee" feel. Regardless, 3 and 4 were addictive and I had a hard time turning it off. Season 5 was interesting yet disappointing. And that's all I'm going to say about that. They could have done better.
Thor: Love and Thunder (2022)
Thor Entertains
This creative film totally entertains its audience! From well choreographed fight scenes, beautiful scenery, hilarious scenes and some tender moments. I loved this film! It made made laugh out loud! And Chris Hemsworth is witty and charming and fabulous eye candy. I'm looking forward to the next Thor Film. I know it will be spectacular!!
The Morning Show: In the Dark Night of the Soul It's Always 3:30 in the Morning (2019)
Took from Real Life Story
Spoiler Alert! If you watched an NBC morning news show in November 2017, then you might recall when the lead Anchor was abruptly fired for his unscrupulous office behavior. This show is based on that event to the detail with the exception of hiring a new co-anchor. This show is full of drama. There is a little comedy with the fired anchor justifying his behavior as if it's not a bad thing? Seriously ? In my opinion, sex at work is absolutely wrong on every level. It's not in your performance expectations, unless you are a hooker and that's another story altogether.
In conclusion, the acting is top notch and it's packed with drama and everyone has a potty mouth. I'm 4 episodes in and hopeful it lighten up.
House of Gucci (2021)
Truth be Told
An intriguing film with spectacular acting. The entire cast was fantastic but Jared's performance stood out. Jared Leto's performance is Oscar worthy!! I didn't believe it was Jared playing Paolo Gucci. I was certain it was a seasoned European actor with the accent. But I was mistaken. His performance will blow you away. Bravo!
Eternals (2021)
Deep
The direction the writers and director took with this Marvel film is very deep and sad. In addition some things just didn't make sense and left you questioning its validity. I wish they would have contacted me to (or a small test pilot group) review and give feedback because there is potential for making it great! .... But it's currently not great.
On a good note, there were a few areas that were entertaining.
Ghosts: Pilot (2021)
Refreshing change of pace
This show has a refreshing, clean story line with a multicultural cast. I love it!!! Love the diversity! It's funny and I can't wait for the next episode. There is so much possibility for interesting stories! I'm hooked!!
Note to the Executives of this show: the reality is Not everyone is interested in reality TV, or shows with people who do not have integrity. I show is good TV. The canceled show Debris was also good TV. Thanks for listening.
Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)
Shang-Chi's Beautifully Executed
Clever story with amazing martial arts and interesting backdrops. I enjoyed and appreciated the English Subtitles that were clear to read and on onscreen longer then most movie subtitles. The martial arts was exhilarating! Loved it! The CGI was colorful and creative. All together, this film pulls you in and keeps your interest. Congratulations to the writers and bravo to the actors. This film should win multiple Oscar Awards!!
This movie was so entertaining I must see it again!!
Debris: Pilot (2021)
Refreshing and Clever
Absolutely Fabulous! It's creative, clever and entertaining! Best thing to hit prime time since Law and Order" from 1990 and that show ran for 20 years! Debris, if given the chance, could be the greatest show of this decade. Hey NBC! Look alive! You have a keeper on your hands!!
Debris: Do You Know Icarus? (2021)
Cleverly entertaining
Yes it seems like Groundhogs day, but it's not. It's more. It's extremely clever. It draws you in, and what? I didn't see that coming! Yep! It's like that! And you want more!! Waiting a week is too long for the next episode! Bravo to the cast and writers!! I'm addicted to Debris!
Resident Alien: Welcome Aliens (2021)
So not fair
Every episode is creatively entertaining. It sucks you in wanting more and wondering what comes next. Very clever story line! Can't wait for season 2!
Resident Alien: Sexy Beast (2021)
Corey Reynolds
Corey is hilarious! And I know him best from "The Closer" and was surprised how believable he is in this show! He makes the writers look good!
Resident Alien: Homesick (2021)
Nothing is off the table
Actor Alan T is a perfect alien!! He actually might be an alien in real life! He's fabulous!! And the writers are so creative! It's humor and rude at the same time! A real creative work of endless entertainment! Thank you!!
Resident Alien: Pilot (2021)
Awkwardly funny
The pilot is essential and at times difficult to watch. But after this episode you will only want more!
Airplane Repo (2010)
Flying high
I found out about this show in the news and was Hooked. I absolutely love this show! The repo guys are brave and aircraft owners behind on payments are shady. It's fascinating to see what lengths people will go through to keep something they aren't paying for. Bring this show back. A little advertisement would do it good!
Warrior Nun (2020)
Engaging and clever
This series pulls you in and wanting more. It's clever and makes you think. It's a true gem of a series.
Home (2015)
Supremely Delightful
I can't wrap my head around the negative reviews because I found this film clever, refreshing, touching, hilarious and entertaining!! I vote for a sequel!
Bull: Imminent Danger (2019)
Writing Genius
The writers of this episode are amazing. Every episode is fantastic and I hope this show lasts 10 years or more like Law and Order!
Noelle (2019)
Holiday Delight
Truly a lovely family film! Good for any age group and the cast was perfect.
The Christmas Club (2019)
Delightful
I prefer action movies but this family movie was a pure delight. Not to cornet or mushy. The characters had so much onscreen chemistry that it reminded me of a time that I had forgotten. I will add this to my watch again and again list!
Last Holiday (2006)
Enjoyable
This is one of those movies that you can watch over and over because it's such a delight.
Lucifer (2016)
Best of the Best
By far the most entertaining show to date. Five seasons with ten episodes in not enough. The writers are creatively fantastic and the acting cast superb! Management should reconsider ending with season five and extend it indefinitely. Thank you!

Once Upon a Time in... Hollywood (2019)
Save yourself
This movie was mind numbing. The acting was very good but the storyline was pitiful. I wouldn't even recommend it for a rental. Sorry if I hurt anyone's feelings. It was not my intention.
The Good Wife (2009)
Entertaining evening Soap Opera
Searson 1 was terrific but season 2 plays like a soap opera. Poor communication and drama.
