The Creator (2023)
CGI for CGI's sake
Up front, I must admit to walking out after 65 minutes. Knowing there was another hour to go was more than I could bear. The plot was simple to being stupid. No spoilers but I am confident I know the "twists" and big reveals without needing to stay to the end. But it was so bad, I haven't bothered to find out if my hunches are right. I just don't care. The dialog was absolutely awful. If AI wrote the screenplay, the striking writers have nothing to fear. At the end of the day, the movie was cringe inducing and had nothing interesting to say. What a waste of time and money. Avoid this movie. Ugh.
Bad Sisters (2022)
A waste of talent...
It has it's moments but overall is a sloooooooow, unbelievable, and poorly written mess with very unlikeable characters. The main villain has NO redeeming qualities and the sisters are petty, self-centered, and just plain unlikeable. The insurance inspectors are especially egregious. They could have used the insurance inspector sub-plot a lot more realistically, but like all other parts of the story, they had to add in as much over-the-top DRAMA as possible. By the end, I wanted them ALL to die in a fiery bus crash. Hard pass on this waste of excellent acting talent. This could have been written by Stephen Moffat. It was that bad.
In Search of... (2018)
What a joke.
I like Zachary Quinta as far as it goes, but yet again, the History Channel disappoints. ZQ should hang his head in shame to be a part of this mess. I struggled through two episodes; AI and Time Travel. The AI episode was reduced to a discussion on how soon we might have realistic sex dolls. I don't know where to even start with the time travel episode. What does time travel have in common with 'infrasound"? Evidently nothing but it took us 15 minutes to find out...or like the airplane story, maybe my experience watching it was so awful, time slowed down and it only felt like 15 minutes. The take away? Run from this poorly thought out, poorly written, not even titilating, junk yard mess. You will learn nothing of interest.
