Family Business (2019)
Breaking Bud
I hated this show. Not one likable character. A family that has every demographic that will make it attractive to the French audience. What no black people? I know it's French. What can go wrong must go wrong. It''s about reaching the limits of despair as the audience howls. If you find other peoples misery enjoyable ignore this. I hung in there but not worth the time.
Hunters (2020)
What a waste of talent
Holocaust goes borsht belt. Netflix will bankroll anything with a name behind it. This is nothing more than a graphic novel bought to video. And not a very good one.
Messiah (2020)
Low rent Homeland. Nine hours I'll never get back.
How many times have we seen this plot? A out of control Mosad agent, a troubled CIA agent, Syrian refugees, Palestinians and a mix of evangelicals and Muslims and stir. Predictable from begging to end. Everyone is painted with a very wide Stereotypical brush. Just because it's on Netflix doesn't make it worth watching.
The Umbrella Academy (2019)
10 hours I'll never get back.
To those who like it and have read the graphic novel, I don't get it. Take Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children add a touch of Dark Phoenix and stretch it out of 10 annoying and long episodes. There are plenty of reviews that detail its faults, read them. Don't make the same mistake I did by having to complete what you start.
Bloodlines: Murder in the Family (1993)
Somethings can't be atoned for.
Made during the golden age of TV mini series, and directed by the King of TV drama Paul Wendkos, this is a classic. Mimi Rogers is stunning and compelling as Melody Woodman the wife decked out in Chanel, she totally dominates the screen with a performance that is wide in range. The same can not be said for Elliott Gould, who so over acts that he makes The maniacal Elliot Woodman the scared of his own shadow, take a pill for chest pains caused by hyper tension attack self centered murderer into a buffoon. The supporting cast is great in that early late '80s 90's kind of way. And I'd swear that is David Krumholtz and not Robert Munic who plays the bad-boy boyfriend of daughter Jacy played by Nicholle Tom. Not available on DVD and relegated to LMN for an airing about twice a year.
