Jaws of Los Angeles (2021)
This is gross
There are a number of large breasted women in this that are in bikinis, and they are covered with tatoo's. All of them
There is one topless that clearly has implants. F words are used from time to time
I will say I did not see any drugs or cigarettes, so that is a plus
its as if a group of guys who had never made a movie wanted to score these gruesome looking women, so hit on a scheme of getting them into bikinis
This is in no way a gateway movie for these gals
Not much in the way of man eating or women eating sharks, lots and lots of very tatooed bikini women.
I found this in Tubi, there are actually a lot of movies in there worth a watch, this is not one of them, unless you got a certain type of fetish.
Gakseoltang (2006)
Animal Cruelty
They got a horse on a track running fast and tripped it up, it could not get up afterward, even though it was trying
Vicious animal cruelty act
Horrible, I don't give a dam about anything else in the movie, the people affiliated with making this peace of sht should be in jail
I found this on Tubi, I thought it might be a nice horse movie after seeing what it was about, foreign movies will sometimes do this, it is much cheaper to torture and kuill animals then to use CGI and special effects
And actors directors producers and the country of Korea are at fault for brutality of this sort
I guess if U are a sadist, U will like this tripe.
Dirty Little Secret (2022)
Gritty realism
I can see what this has a low rating, it makes people uncomfortable. It would be very interesting to learn how Melissa go into character
Unlike everyone else who has written a review, I grew up with an adult hoarder, thank got the individual did not make much money. I remember putting crap in trash bags periodically and putting them in dumpsters at 3 in the morning to avoid getting caught. The person I was with did not have other mental issues, as this character did.
I had a buddy who's mom was a complete lunatic at her home, and was very good at her job, you would never guess at her neurosis
I'm thinking this movie hit a little too close to home for a lot of people
Movie done very well, TY.
Woman in the Woods (2020)
My wife and I watched the whole thing
And we do not understand it.
I thought it would be interesting, I thought wrong. It never really made any sense.
I like the Philippines, the phone people are so much more courteous than the people who do he phone service in India. They make an honest effort. So I would like to say this was a movie that was engaging, interesting and so on.
But I cannot, it makes no sense.
The women is scantily clad, was this the whole incentive for making the movie, some loser people who wanted to look at some woman's parts and down her apparel? There are websites for that stuff, free no less.
Anyway, I very much like the Philippines, this movie however is a real lemon.
Stockholm, Pennsylvania (2015)
About 1/3
Of anyone who has raised kids is going to hate this movie, because they are going to see themselves in it, mistreating kids.
The acting in this was extraordinary. The storyline is complete with no gaps. The actors are very believable. The situations are very believable
As I stated, where it fails is in how gritty revealing it is on how "adults" can and do fk up kid's heads, because they themselves are fked up.
Whoever put this movie together, the director and the script writer are some very very mature and rounded adults that have seen some very evil things
The other reason this movie is probably not getting accolades is that it is independent, so the hollywood wokies are going to be browbeating it, keeping it down
Cult Classic.
Found it on Tubi.
Baelin's Route: An Epic NPC Man Adventure (2021)
A horse was killed in making this
I was kind of turned off by the numerous uses of the F word, this bunch has never used that word in any of their Dungeons and D skits. Its too bad they let this go
I was horrified to see that they killed a horse to make this thing.
There is no animal cruelty disclaimer, the killed the poor thing.
The dialogue was probably inspired by I am groot
I read that they spent upwards to a million on this, I wonder how much they paid for the horse and who killed it.
Given the short story line of this, its really out of place. Its a little like 'singin in the rain', in which in reality the woman who is dubbing another in the movie is in fact being dubbed herself in reality, it goes completely against what the whole thing is representing
-anything for money.
Bringing Christmas Home (2023)
This movie has been mislabeled
This is a drama mystery, not just a drama.
Acting is pretty good. The mystery component for this is unique. I have no idea why is was not given a mystery tab, who in the heck is doing things over in GAF?
Honestly its been a few weeks since I saw it, and i don't really remember much about the drama, but I totally remember the mystery stuff
My wife and I allowed our hallmark subscription to run out, we did not really talk about it much, a couple movies with guy exchanging tongue and thats all she wrote. We are so grateful for GAF, and are hoping Vanguard will never be able to take it over, as they did with Hallmark and so many other companies.
Paris Christmas Waltz (2023)
Pretty good
Dancing actually being done by the actors, a rarity now days. Black Swan you say??? Did you actually SEEE Portman doing a single dance step, the answer is no. Every 'dance' scene with her shows her upper body, or someones legs, but NEVER a full on complex ballet manoeuvre.
This movie has good acting, it has a variety of 'sets', the actors are actually dancing (more than once) in various settings. The manner and reason in which they hook up is realistic. When she 'auditions' it is a no pressure situating in which she believes she is just enjoying dancing, which is what the 'scout' is on the look out for.
I would have liked more actual dance training scenes with less drama in them. At the end of the day there was too much drama
The ending dance was nice
My favorite dance movie is the original 'shall we dance' (1996) with subtitles.
That being said, this is worth a watch.
A Christmas Blessing (2023)
Worth the watch
The movie revolves around helping the poor and or those who are down on their luck during christmas.
One thing that is done differently in this movie is that quite a bit of time is spent showing how this is done. You can see personally where donations are coming from. How exactly the process occurs with volunteer work, picking up stuff, food and present preparation and distribution.
Movies hardly ever actually show stuff, for instance whenever one of these movies revolve around a farm , they never show how exactly the farm runs or how they do what they do. Its always maybe a 60 second cameo on farm workings, Maybe two 60 sec cameos max
As far as the whole lori thing goes, she did her time and her husband is still in, my grandmother, who bred like a rabbit to my grandfather (7 kids), told me she did not fall in love with her husband until she was in her 50s, so Lori has missed out on her true bonding love years with her husband, who is still in. On a scale of 1-10 for felonies, Lori is a 1. So lets move on. I was glad she came back with GAF instead of Hallmark. My wife and I just let our Hall mark membership run out after seeing a couple Hallmark movies with guys exchanging tongue saliva.
This movie was well acted. The message was nice. The script was tight.
Christmas in Maple Hills (2023)
An actual review from a viewer
Ok, despite what I perceived as "professional" reviews preceding this one, I was very impressed with the real life message that probably went over the heads of the other reviewers.
My wife when she was in HS was given an assignment to interview her grandparents about the WW 2 era, she chose her grandfather.
As it turned out, her grandfather had been awarded the SILVER STAR for an action vs Natzi Germany over a bridge battle. He had never talked about anything form that war with any of his kids or relations. No one knew this had happened, he wanted nothing to do with that war
Whoever scripted this movie, was completely aware of this behavior in actual warfront vets, the entire movie revolves around this theme.
I was not overly impressed with the acting, there was very little if any actual farm activity with our hard working farmers. I'd give this thing maybe a 5 or 6, except that the central theme is so powerful, and so overlooked.
Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (2023)
drama porn
I followed this thing up to episode 5, about half the way through 5 I just gave up on it.
At the end of the day its just too much drama. 'As the world turns' stuff, and they have these young characters which the series revolves around, and all the drama on each of them.
There are a very few series that do things right, 'firefly', 'dresden files', I' dream of genie', those rare series that have just the right amount in plot ingredients, this is NOT one of those, its very slanted, as are most tv series.
There does not appear to be a political agenda with this. Its just a TV series that comes across as a script of drama filler to sell a product.
This series just choked me out of being interested.
Skammerens datter II: Slangens gave (2019)
Holly wood does not want you to find this
This and thr first are outstanding Fantasy. Much Much better than most the crap spewing out of hollwood. Currently it can be found in Tubi
It plays like a very high budget movie across the board minus any Political content
Its pretty obvious it has been down graded by movie competitors here in the US, its like, dam I hope no one sees this, its gonna make us look shty
The costuming and cinematography are first rate, the acting is out standing, the specual effects are top of the line
The set pieces are like out of a high budget flick, the script makes total sense and keeps U engaged
You like fantasy and Sci FI, this is and he first one is your baby.
Ape vs Mecha Ape (2023)
For me there was too much dialogue
I thought the special effects were pretty good, There really wusn't much.
There wasn't much in the way of fight scenes. Now I confess I stopped watching after about 50 minutes. If a movie has nothing but fight scenes or even a LOT I usually don't watch em, but this movie for me just got boring going the other direction.
I thought the acting was pretty good, i thought the special affects, the little there were, was pretty good, it was just boring. It was definitely low budget with most the scenes occurring in backyards or warehouse areas and low end offices and such
Anyway, thats my two bits.
Romance in Hawaii (2023)
More Hula please
I wanted to see more Hula dancing, REAL hula. My wife wanted the same.
I could not believe it when this popped up while I was perusing movies in Tubi, I clicked on it out of boredom, and quickly realized there was some Hula in it.
The instruction scenes in it were fantastic, it just needs some more actual Hula dancing with less drama, OR just more dance in it and a longer movie
There is finally a movie out like this, Never thought to see it, this should be a GAF selection, no politics or hidden agenda, A little too much drama and a little too little dance
Also the actress should have done at least one more song.
Run Hide Fight (2020)
Straight up killing animals
The Gina Carano movie they blew a leg on a cow with firearms
DW is gonna end up w/ an animal cruelty reputation that they clearly are making a point of fostering that is going to cost them viewers such as myself who leans right in politics. Hel, I even got deleted by you tube for expressing conservative opinion w/o any offensive language and such
I can't get behind animal cruelty.
It probably saves them money to kill and torture em for real, and does the 'man thing', advocates gun rights I suppose
At the end of the day its pretty sick, and weakens the political position of DW
As someone who is praying for a conservative pres in the next election, this movie is disgusting in its cruelty.
Strong Girl Nam-soon (2023)
Boss girl agenda with humor
So far I haven't really decide if i like it or not.
The Pros, I went and found the other strong girl stuff and watched a little, I found the original unwatchable, the drama scenes were extremely abrasive, this version is better and easier and friendlier to watch. I found the humor parts to be funny, although most of the humor stems on women doing beat downs on men, that appears to be pretty much what it has going in the funny category. There are some epic moments in the 'strong girl' scenes which are pivotal and definitely put a viewer on edge in a good way.
The cons, the primary protagonist is not a very good actor. The whole script revolves around the boss girl movement in an overbearing way. The Primary protagonist often interrupts her love interest in conversation in an overbearing manner. All the females are beating up on rude and obnoxious males in every episode. They shout down rude obnoxious males regularly who then bow their heads submissively.
There is a non explicit sex scene in which the male is completely submissive to the female to the point of crying. There is another scene in which a woman tells a man to shut up at a dinner table, otherwise she will basically slap him around
One character bobs her hair, and then afterwards is portrayed as being better looking because of it. The girl is actually NOT better looking after getting her hair bobbed. She is in fact LESS good looking.
Boss girl agenda across the board.
Ok, so at this point I have watched 8 episodes, I was pretty impressed with the first three episodes, but at this point I can say I have lost interest in the series. Episodes 4-8 were just too boring, lots of drama and so on. Just lost interest. Sorry.
Cooking for Two (2016)
decent singing, LGBT
It revolves around cooking, but nothing is actually cooked, they just kind of magically "appear" the dishes, with a little talking and cutting
The real focus is on the singing and dancing, which are decent. The viewer is slowly lead into realizing that the romance is really between two guys, which is kind of a let down given the build up, its a blind build up
Initially I was wondering a little about casting asians who had good singing voices in pure american english w/ no accent, and then I realized that their target audience is the woke stuff over here
I notice that this movie has no viewers and hardly any rating votes, because in reality the woke movement is largely narrative driven by the media. In other words, not a much of a fan base
It would have gotten a nice audience and plenty of looks with a different script, oh well.
Country Comfort (2021)
Over the top drama for a family
The drama was way over the top for a family tv series for kids. I don't understand why this was done
The comedy was quite good, and the music was really nice, but the intense drama scenes made a viewer cringe
There seemed to be a lot on family death and some teen innuendo towards an adult, this was ok, but it just kind of fueled the anti for it being a family movie
The old family tv series seemed to know how to make all ages family material, i guess modern script writers have never watched any of this, This TV series will disappear into oblivion in a year, those old classics will still be watched and enjoyed by all ages.
Kanojo wa uso o aishisugiteiru (2013)
Lots of drama with some elevator music
Quite awhile back there were some animation musicals and a couple teen musicals done out of japan that were amazing, the script was quite good, and the music was beautiful.
Fast forward to modern times, with this elevator music and an average singing voice tv series coming out of japan, and leeching off what has been done in the past. Its a teen musical out of Japan, so its pretty good.
Wrong, its a drama with some elevator music, and I'm pretty sure no one in the crew knew much about music composition at all.
Anyway, go find -swing girls- in the original language with sub titles, or find- Nodame Cantabile in the original japanese with sub titles, or even -your lie in April.
Don't bother with this elevator goosh.
The Witcher: The Invitation (2023)
script writers and upper echelon sell out to the LGBT
I was hoping the script writers were not going to take money to write in LGBT into their story, but money talks.
I keep wondering how much it costs to get a character to turn into a homosexual, how much money gets passed around at the top,
I even wonder if this review will get cancelled for stating the truth, 'the king has no clothes'--I am guessing they made a lot on this under the table
This season has been dragging further and further down, so they just decided to make as much as possible on a sinking ship. My guess is the offer has been on the table since season one.
Guess it time to start looking elsewhere.
Missing (2023)
Gave it a nickel ending
I kept wondering why it needed to be a white dad, and then it became clear at the ending.
My wife and I were hoping for something profound and unpredictable at the ending, it would have made this movie memorable, no such luck.
There are so many Hollywood movies that send their work into mediocrity and guaranteed oblivion with the ending they slot in.
Sooo we have good acting, a well developed and engaging script, and an ending that will ensure you forget about the movie in a year or so.
There was also a couple of confusing points w/ the computer stuff, which made me thing there was no Beta test group,
The Pale Blue Eye (2022)
No fine Arts here, disappointing
I went into this believing, even hoping that bits and pieces of Poe's poetry would be woven into the movie. It didn't really occur.
I was hoping that even some of his actual immortal lines would make it into dialogue, did not really occur.
Straight forward script writing, no poetry occurs, except for a quick rhyme sex innuendo at one point, and they go all out on the heart, but there is literally none of the poetry
cinematography was quite good, acting good, dude who plays Poe did well
Just don't get your hopes up that a NON independent movie with a budget weaves some actual poetry into it, thats all I am saying.
A Belgian Chocolate Christmas (2022)
I love GAF
But this one does not really work for me
I guess for me I needed more actual chocolate making, this movie is all about dialogue and how tasty chocolate is. No actual production of chocolate outside of dialogue
I very much appreciated how clean the movie is. I appreciated no over the top drama.
The actors were ok, I doubt either of them knew anything about actual belgian chocolate making. At around 55 min into the movie they actually do cook up somehing, for me its too little too late.
I believe my wife would like this more than me.
I can ay that I generally enjoy GAF more than this one.
..
Invitation to a Murder (2023)
Very good mystery movie, false reviews
For some reason a batch of false reviews have been placed in IMDB. Most read kind of similar, --hmmmmm
In any event, to address the stupid reviews on accent, the two characters with 'accents' sound spot on to me, I have worked with folks from India and that accent is spot on, I have worked around people from China, and that accent is spot on. I am guessing that somehow the people doing the ignorant 'accent' reviews are fixated on their own home country
The script is really quite good, the acting is good. The the movie viewer is going to get very little that modern stuff has with the over the top. No screaming fits of emotion, no graphic sex or violence. So yea, for a LOT of viewers, especially young viewers or 'adult children', the movie is going to be "borring"".
This movie slowly unwinds and the mystery and its solution fit the facts as laid out during he development of the movie. No rabbit is pulled out at the end. It all fits.
As time goes by, the mystery movie will become better known, and gain in popularity.
Excellent candidate for a sequel.
After the Ball (2015)
SO why do I like this movie
Probably because I like Yentyl, with Barbara Streisand.
I have a hard time believing that just because a guy does woman' fashion design he is gay. Sorry folks. Because this stereotype was pushed to the heights I down grade it to a 6.5.
That being said, the acting by the actress is exemplary, she carries the movie w/o the viewer realizing it. Pretty impressive.
The movie has two threads in it, competitive fashion design and a boy/ girl romance.
I would have really liked it more if they had more design stuff to it, get a real feel for the process. It was definitely front and center in the movie, I would just have liked more of that with less drama.
