Greyhound (2020)
Typical Hollywood WWII movie
If you call the movie Greyhound in reference to an actual and current naval battle tactic, than you should pay more attention to the reality of submarine / subsurface warfare.
In that context even the movie Battleship did that much better.
1. The German agenda during these days in the Atlantic was to sink as many merchant vessels as possible and definitely not to get head on head with allied destroyers.
2. Submarines are vessels of stealth and silence and they accomplish their missions with precision and patience.
3. The goal of the allied forces was to get their convoy safely to the British coast and to defend the cargo ships. In order to achieve that the destroyers had to stay in their sectors to shield the convoy as good as possible. They didn't hunt the submarines they chased them of. They didn't actively hunt them because that would leave the rest of the convoy without protection.
There is a reason why convoy-duty is to this day considered boring.
The movie is generally an action movie like pearl harbour and so forth. There's not much depth to it so you can watch it on an evening if you need something entertaining.

Queer as Folk (2022)
Here we go again...
It is really not necessary to go into detail but this remake of QaF is just like all the other 202X remakes of bigger brands. It's a show featuring a queer group of people in New Orleans with the name Queer as Folk. But other than the name the show has nothing to do with the other two shows.
On the surface they may share similar storylines but only on the surface.
There's no depth to it. The characters are very very shallow and can't be compared to there counterparts from previous incarnations.
The dialogue is as expected flat and shallow like in all new shows these days (Star Trek Discovery and so on) In short: this show is a mess and a waste of time and effort.
