Shrinking
(2023)

Entertaining and uplifting
A fun series. The show quickly draws you in with it's relatable characters as it takes you through their struggles. Ranging processing grief, dealing with trauma and abusive partners the show tackles a wide range of psychiatric issues and is a nice commentary on the state of mental health in today's society.

The show presents a compelling story of characters coupled with an ever-presentcomedic relief. One drawback however would be the show's tendency to overdo a joke. More than a few times the show takes a joke slightly too far as if the audience doesn't understand the joke the first time. While this has it's place in moderation it is overdone in this work.

Overall this show is worth a watch and can be quire entertaining.

Top Gun: Maverick
(2022)

A great sequel to an iconic classic.
Amazing. Top Gun: Maverick builds on everything that made Top Gun great and delivers an immersive and riveting experience.

Top Gun is a classic movie for the ages. Filled with amazing fighter sequences, bombastic characters and a burgeoning romance.

Top Gun: Maverick takes all these elements and builds on them in a new and fresh take on the TOPGUN program and the Top Gun film formula.

There's incredible, load, roaring jets dogfighting on the big screen. There's a love interest for our hero. There's that iconic soundtrack containing tracks like Danger Zone and yes, there's a "volleyball" scene too.

Top Gun: Maverick is simply a must-see.

The Last Kingdom: Episode #5.10
(2022)
Episode 10, Season 5

One of the few times a series ends perfectly
I can't remember the last time I watched a finale and wasn't left longing for more or wishing things were different. The Last Kingdom does a phenomenal job after five long seasons wrapping up.

Destiny is all !

For All Mankind: Polaris
(2022)
Episode 1, Season 3

Poor Start
Has to be one of the poorest showing of an established TV show since GoT

Writing is poor. Plot is poor. Really disappointed in the start of this season. Hopes are not high for what's to come.

This episode is essentially filler content. Apple has established the show and apparently no longer want to put the effort into interesting episodes. I would skip this one altogether you won't miss much.

The Tomorrow War
(2021)

Eh
The acting bad. The writing bad. The action? Eh.

Movie and plot got stretched in an awkward way.

First half is better second half is just idiotic makes no sense. First half 6.5 second half takes it down to a 5.

The more I watch the worse it gets. Oh God it gets so bad. Just stop writing what's wrong with you.

The Little Things
(2021)

Not very good
Odd just an odd movie that tries to be similar to Se7en but isn't in any way.

The 100
(2014)

All shine no substance
Everything in this shows is written to elicit a reaction. Maybe 10% is good writing. I'd pass on it.

Supernatural: Keep Calm and Carry On
(2016)
Episode 1, Season 12

Bad writing, getting worse.
This episode is bad. Once again the writing in this show continues to go downhill.

It Follows
(2014)

It's okay
It Follows isn't terrible.

It gives you a decent scare and creep factor. But.

It's too short. The plot seems like it was either just cut off or not fleshed out. It's never explained what it is or why it's doing anything which I guess is okay but if the only plot is just following someone why is this a movie instead of a YouTube video?

The ending is abrupt and people will say it's up to you what happens but it's not a good ending there's no big event that you would care might happen it kinda just.. Stops.

Definitely could've used more plot. Again not sure why this wasn't just a YouTube video.

I Am Mother
(2019)

Do not watch the trailer.
The trailer gives away the entire movie. Don't watch the trailer.
