The Power of the Dog (2021)

Too bad, just doesn't cut it

[3/10 · 28 March 2022]

I was bored to death watching this. The acting was first rate, but the story was just plain boring. I am a big fan of Benjamin Cumberbatch and the cast was great. The sets and scenery great, BUT the film was just plain boring, boring, boring. I sat through the whole film, hoping it would turn around, but it never did. I know that Jane Campion's film are not very traditional, but this is the first one of her films that I've seen which was just plain BORING. Sorry, but that's my personal opinion.

Press (2018)

I absolutely loved this!

[10/10 · 19 October 2019]

I have now watched all six episode of PRESS twice and I loved it better on the second viewing. I sure hope that there will be a second series.

Yes, it is a bit dated in some respects, BUT since the print business as is all media related businesses go, the times are rapidly changing.

I loved seeing behind the scenes at a newspaper and the British press in particular as they are more ruthless even than are the American press.

One criticism, 6 episodes just isn't enough; please make at least 10, if there is a season 2.

I would LOVE to see a season 2 PLEASE!!!!!!!

Men Only (2001 TV Movie)

Review of Men Only - great film!

[10/10 · 13 January 2009]

I have been watching everything Stephen Moyer since I found him in True Blood, so I was interested in seeing this film for TV. As a woman, when I first saw this, I was disturbed, but the more I got involved in the story, I began to better understand how men communicate and how when things get out of hand, what can happen. There is something very primal about this story that resonates and shows the competitive nature of men and their relationships, in such things as sports, sex, drugs, etc. There is a constant competition between the five men with the conflict between the doctor and Stephen Moyer's character at the center. Each character has flaws and is presented in a very real way. I think this is an excellent film, extremely well written and one of Stephen Moyer's best performances. I rate it a 10!
