Glass Onion (2022)
1/10
Absolute garbage.
25 December 2022
I am baffled someone rated this utter dumpster fire more then say 3 or 4. To me it's an obvious 1, but taste differs. I could understand someone rating it higher. But hardly over 5 and certainly not 10.

There isn't a redeeming value to this movie at all. It's stupid and it's poorly acted. The dialogue is sheit and the characters are idiotic.

Even within the movies flawed logic it doesn't make sense. All which follows an ongoing trend. Hollywood really seems incapable of anything other then garbage.

I know Edward Norton is an accomplished actor but as you understand his performance here stinks. I'm certain this is an effect of him knowing the movie is garbage. This is also a trend I've been noticing. Good actors making horrible movies and not being able to muster their talent.

Avoid at all costs.

Absolutely abhorrent.

This is not Tolkien. This is bad fan fiction masquerading as lore. The actors are all terrible. The script even worse. (Who writes like this?). I don't even get the raving about the CGI - which is much better in GoT. Nothing in this show hits a nerve in the way the movies did. Unfortunately the show runners, writers, actors, directors etc. All seem to first and foremost struggle with getting their modern political points across. Stay clear and save yourself the time.

Elon Musk is correct.

"Tolkien is turning in his grave," the Tesla CEO and founder wrote on Twitter. "Almost every male character so far is a coward, a jerk or both. Only Galadriel is brave, smart and nice."

Dave Chappelle: The Closer (2021 TV Special)
10/10
Stunning and brave!
8 October 2021
Dave Chapelle once again shows the world why he is the GOAT.

This is one of his most brilliant works as the tightrope he's balancing on is almost impossible.

The perfect equilibrium between hilarious comedy and social commentary doesn't get better than this.

The fact that hateful and brittle people will complain doesn't change this, as that will ALWAYS be the case. Especially those who stand to gain something by purposely misunderstand or misinterpret. But this will - as usual - be a very small group masquerading as a bigger one.

Ignore the imbeciles and enjoy this masterful blend. Who knows if we ever will get a perfect special like this in our lifetime.

Raised by Wolves (2020–2022)
1/10
The first impression lasted ..
17 December 2020
So the show starts out by pushing your typical liberal agenda and then continues doing so until you turn it off. As the script is nothing but a vessel for this purpose the writers didn't care about believable plots or continuity and the director didn't direct any actor just paid some CG firm for cool looking rocks.

I have got to admit the premise seemed idiotic and I thought to myself "no way this can be good" but where fooled by the high ratings.

I saw some reviewer comparing with West World s03 and can all but agree. But this show didn't even deliver 2 watchable seasons and is already in the first episode worse than that. Maybe I'll cancel the old HBO subscription.

Cursed (2020)
1/10
Utter garbage.
18 July 2020
This show is so bad it doesn't even have one redeeming quality. Even Gustaf Skarsgaard is horrible. Can't even imagine how that happened.

I won't bore you with an in depth review because honestly there's no point.

If Netflix continues to put out inane garbage like this I will cancel my subscription, and I'm already on the fence on that one.

Ghost Rider (2007)
3/10
Very bad.
30 January 2008
This movie destroyed almost everything that is good with the comic book "Ghost Rider". Nothing is left of the books dark theme and the mythos of Ghost Rider and Zarathos. Instead of battling Deathwatch/Blackout/Snowblind & Co he's battling the devils son like he was John Constantine. What the hell?

You can't even watch Ghost Rider trying to ignore all the discrepancies with the comic books, the film is just so bad. What's up with everybody's voices? Couldn't they TRY and make ppl sound cool?

Also very annoying – Nicholas Cage. The man CAN'T act! Look at his ten latest films and see for yourselves! He's playing the same part in EVERY film. Also, the use of a famous actor makes the a$$hole director to use him as much as possible. Therefore, throughout the movie, you will see Cage ride his fairy bike in situations obviously more suited for his fiery alter-ego.

The film just stinks folks, and the best thing about it is Eva Mendes, just because she's beautiful. A good actress with a nice cleavage is always good for a movie.

Alex & Emma (2003)
2/10
This is filth. [Possible spoilers ahead]
20 June 2004
Warning: Spoilers
The idea for the story is a good one for a romantic comedy. So after I ready the tagline and basic summary I thought to myself 'This could be really good and cute'. Boy where I mistaken. This is the worst romantic comedy I've ever seen, it should've gotten some kind of award for being so bad. The whole movie (not kidding here) focuses on developing the fictional characters in Alex's book instead of the real ones – Ales (Luke Wilson) and Emma (Kate Hudson). For the first 5 minutes it seems like fun, but after 20 you just realize that you no longer care about the real main characters because they're so underdeveloped. Also it's ridiculous and insulting to the audience to have Alex and Emma fall in love in this mad and stormy way from just sitting in his apartment working 24/7 almost completely without actually talking to each other. When most of the movie was done, it became clear that they'd wasted a really good story setting this way. It's kind of ironic, because the book that Alex is writing in the movie obviously suck in the same way. This is by the way another mistake in the movie. The script is so bad, that everything Alex tells us (the audience) about the book he's writing throughout the movie makes it seem like a real piece of crap. The ending is really good (for a romantic film that is), and it's too bad they didn't tried harder when they made the movie.

Secret Window (2004)
4/10
Not very good.
1 June 2004
Johnny Depp is pretty nice, as one might expect, in fact all the cast is pretty nice. The script could have been made into something really interesting, but wasn't. The director did a really worthless job. Or the producer, I can't tell. There's some scenes and some music in some scenes that'll really going to make you laugh.. Crying "OMG IT'S SO BAD" Don't pay to see this B-movie. We, my friend and I basically figured out the whole movie out after 15-20 minutes.. But we said to ourselves "no this cant be it, it cant be that cheesy" .. Guess what .. it is .. Do yourself a favour and avoid the most predictable movie this year.

My eyes won't stop bleeding – [Possible, but not likely, spoilers ahead.]
9 May 2004
Warning: Spoilers
I saw this movie, thinking it might be funny. I've always been a bit of a fan of Steve Martin, but this movie was so bad it made me feel violated. Everything is so exaggerated that all you're left with is a big bad sigh. I was going thru my votes at IMDB, and I swear I couldn't find one single movie that I'd hated more then Cheaper by the Dozen. Also what idiot cast Tom Welling as the teenaged son? He's over 25 for heavens sake. The only thing the movie did for me was making me hate the kids in it. They are so spoiled, and are misbehaving so bad, it's not even funny anymore – just improbable and borderline Sci-fi. Piper Perabo is beautiful as always and Hilary Duff's really cute. Most of the people are acting good or ok, but with a script like this, it's impossible to save. Actually, there's only ONE funny thing in this whole waste of time, Ashton Kutcher's travesty on himself is rather amusing.

Oh my goodness, this is horrible.
15 July 2003
This movie is one of the most insulting I have had the misfortune to see in a very long while. I will not waste too much time on this comment, since I already wasted enough on the movie itself.

First of all, it is painfully obvious that the actors are aware of the quality of the script. They all seem very tired of the film, and they all do their job - not a bit more, not a bit. The only exception from this is Scott Glenn, who by pure professionalism manages to present a decent performance. Clearly the director are also aware about just how much the script sucks, because he has evidently not even tried to inspire the crew to some good acting. I have seen better directing and acting on `The days of our lives'

The FX is quite alright, as is the sound. The surroundings are fairly beautiful. But this doesn't help a bit in the long run. Well, actually it helps a bit, because otherwise I wouldn't even had finished the movie at all.

What is most upsetting however, is the way the professional climbers are presented. They are all clumsy and careless, and all of the accidents are somehow related to errors that the climbers do. This is not by itself necessary bad, but when all the errors are related to pure sloppiness and utter negligence for safety from almost all the climbers, it becomes absurd and preposterous.

Do you remember the old crappie movie `The Net' starring Sandra Bullock ? That movie became sheer nonsense, and was a total joke, to all people knowing juuuust a bit about computers. The same is true for Vertical Limit, if you know juuuuust a bit about climbing.

I might also ad, that you DO NOT have to be ANYTHING of an expert on climbing, to see through all the insane errors that the climbers do. Hell, a normal person with an IQ above 70 wouldn't make those mistakes.

Apart from being insulting regarding everything that has to do with the climbing, the script are also very lame from every other aspect. It was undoubtedly written in 6-7 hours by a really really tired person. It is so filled with cliché, that Hollywood should form a class action for thievery.

Please do not see this movie.

Klassfesten (2002)
7/10
filled with anguish ..
24 September 2002
Ye flipping Gods !! This is one of the most awkward movies I have ever seen. It´s a pleasure to watch, in the same way we all enjoy some pain once in a while. Sometimes, I was unable to watch the screen at all. Suddenly, after watching this movie, I feel like killing myself. Obviously, there is no life after 30. The movie is very clear on that. Everyone in the film is really really pathetic. I just wish I die before I turn 30, or ofcourse, have a wonderfull jobb, a wonderfull wife .. a bunch of kids, and a 6 figure income.

sleeping pill
22 September 2001
Wow, this is probably the most boring film, I have ever seen ! The acting is ok, so is the scenography and directing. Everything is a bit of alright. Except for the script.. The story is so pointless, one starts almost wondering if someone intended to make the most boring film in history. I was almost put to sleep several times, throughout the movie. Everything they do, is totaly uninteresting, and furthermore, it takes them forever to do it. DO NOT see this crap.
