From Scratch (2022)
Beautiful and heartwrenching
This is one of the best series I have watched in ages. Also the one I have cried the most to!
The story, the actors, the filming.... the Italian food, language, scenery.....
Give this series a chance and you wont regret it! It will stick with you for a very long time. It is beautiful.
I have read the bad reviews and I am baffled! You can't judge this by watching 1 episode. You will see more of Firenze, and you will see more of Sicilia (alot more). How she met Lino? She met him in the first episode!
Like I said, the actors are amazing in this; especially Eugenio Mastrandea. I haven't seen him in anything before but he really was amazing in this. So was Zoe Saldana.... I felt their pain and cried through most of the episodes.
Anyone can relate to the heartbreak of what cancer does to people and you will feel emotionally drained, but it's worth it.
Watch it!
No Time to Die (2021)
Not the best Bond...
Craig is not my favourite Bond, his Bond films has always been more a typical action movie than what I know and love from the Bond films that I grew up with.
But I have to say that this looong film was the worst. Casino Royale and Skyfall are so much better than this!
The scenes from Norway are great, even though I might be a bit biased here...
And I have always loved Felix! And now you let this babyfaced bad actor kill him off that easy?
Rami was good, but not in it long enough so he didn't make a huge impression...
The russian guy reminded be of Borat everytime he talked...
And as I have seen others mention; no chemistry between Bond and Stowe.... not like him and Vesper.
I liked Ana, the female CIA agent. Too small part for her, she was good.
The action scenes....well, they are what we are used to now; over the top, constant, not always believable... basically an ordinary action movie!
Oh, and please: homos being rammed down your throat? (Pun intended)
Q mentions ONCE that he is making "H I M" a dinner for the first time, that was all! And really? None of you has thought that he was gay in the other films? Why is it a problem?
And, shock and horror; a black woman has taken over the 007?? She wasn't to bad, actually! Yes, I know; it's JAMES BOND, not Jamie Bond.
I miss the olden days, when it was more of the spy games, more story. Yes, M is right; the enemy isn't in your face anymore, it's online. But still...
But would it kill you to put more of a story in, and not chuck sh itloads of action in it and think "that will do"?
Not too impressed by the ending either: soppy, soppy, boom!
As for people thinking it's over, it isn't; after all the credits it says what it always says; James Bond will be back.
Broccoli also said that they will look for a new Bond next year.
How will they say he survived? No problem!
But if all fails, they can go back in time again, to the 70s or 80s f.i.
And then, we can have some traditonal spying again :-D
And why stress to get a PG 12 rating? Only for the money!
American Sniper (2014)
The irony of his death
As many has said before; war propaganda... making sure young americans will still enlist and put their life's at risk.
When I first heard of the film, I read about people coming out of the cinemas shouting " Yeah! I wanna go out and shout some muslims now!" Really? Well done, Clint...that's what you were aiming for? Maybe next time make a film about how especially the US, and other western countries bomb countries we have no reason to bomb, or stick our noses in their problems.
Would we want revenge if our families got muredered for no good reason? Yeah, we damn right would want revenge!
( I was curious to how this "hero" died, and found out that him and his friend was killed by a marine corps veteran with PTSD. He had been in and out of hospitals, amd even been diagnosed with schizoprenia.
Chris Kyle's remedy? Take him to the shooting range....... He shot Kyle and his friend, and got sentenced to life in prison. Well done, the american legal system).
You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger (2010)
Oh dear
I've watched WA films before and thought they were OK, but this was not... It was boring, the actors which are normally great were uninspired,... Not much else to say, really.
