Tomodachi Game: Hurry Up and "Switch Sides"
(2022)
Episode 9, Season 1

This is what you've been waiting for as you've watched this series
You've hit the meat of the series, Yuichi is killing it this episode and it seems the next episode is great too. Nice to see the characters & story evolve.. the ending is something special. Honestly the best bits just like as in Deathnote are where the rationale behind the decision making get explained, this is a notch above the rest of the episodes thus far.

Halo: Allegiance
(2022)
Episode 8, Season 1

Jonathan Liebesman to the rescue
Noticing that this Liebesman is directing all the good episodes.. He must have the magic touch! The best episode of the season, more of this please now we're getting somewhere.

Kimetsu no Yaiba: Never Give Up
(2022)
Episode 17, Season 2

Makes MHA look like trash
Amazing peak animation. Great story, great animation, some of the best art in the business. Makes every other shounen look like they're made by children.

Star Trek: Picard: Mercy
(2022)
Episode 8, Season 2

Episode got worse as it went on
Will probably be the worst of the series, we've reached Discovery levels of stupidity and probably beyond.

This isn't Trek, it's some Sci-Fi slice of life romance.

So many cringey moments.

Star Trek: Picard: Watcher
(2022)
Episode 4, Season 2

Female lead episode
It's the girls time to shine with females doing most of the heavy lifting this episode, the guys generally bumbling around and a bunch of woke stuff thrown in as well. Pretty average, maybe giving it six is overrating it.

Mad Max: Fury Road
(2015)

Incredible
I don't think there's anything that comes close to this for the sheer entertainment it provides. The only thing I have a problem with is with Max basically being a mute, would've preferred some more charm and wit from the character and maybe even a different actor.. aside from that everything is amazing.

86: Undertaker
(2021)
Episode 1, Season 1

Give it a shot
Not a great first episode, had me confused what was going on, currently re-watching it after finishing episode 11. I do wish they did a Berserk with this and made the first part of the episode a sequel to episode 11, I would recommend watching it afterwards anyway if just for one thing that is said at the beginning and the general vibe of it. That said, you probably want to know why I'm writing this.. Simply put, give it a shot. It might take a few episodes for it to hit you but when it does I think you'll find one of the gems of 2021. Beautifully animated, scored and hell the CGI is very very nice too. The characters are cool, the emotions real and I can't imagine there are many who wouldn't be itching to see what happens next. Rate it better than Vivy, you'll understand about half way through. Enjoy.

Masters of the Universe: Revelation
(2021)

Not really enjoyable
I'll give it four stars because the animation and OST is alright but everything else is meh. These aren't the same characters as any previous He-man show and it clearly shows. Everything you read below is correct and I'll just sum it up to say Kevin Smith and anyone else involved with this doesn't understand He-man and had no right to touch it. There was a right way to go about this and that chance is gone now I think. I hope Kevin Smith's career tanks because of this and everyone remembers how he destroyed something he clearly didn't understand just like Rian did with LTJ.

Kiseijuu: Kanketsuhen
(2015)

Better than the first
Solid sequel and a satisfying end. Emotionally charged and almost as good as the anime. Wish I watched this series sooner.

Kimetsu no Yaiba: New Mission
(2019)
Episode 26, Season 1

Ending was mint
Good episode, leads directly to the Mugen Train movie.

Great scene on the train, the camera angles, the soundtrack and the sound effects get you pumped for what literally comes next seconds after the episode ends in the story. I expect the film will be amazing.

Mortal Kombat
(2021)

Studios are so clueless
Wasting time on Cole. Nobody gives a crap about him.

Why create this character? People don't need a family man central diverse casted character. This is a video game movie who you making this for? Doesn't seem like the people that are watching it. Great effects cool fights some nice casting here n there that's about it. Felt rushed.

Boku no hîrô akademia: All Hands on Deck! Class 1-A
(2021)
Episode 1, Season 5

Not bad as a starter
Nothing wrong with this episode.

As far as the re-introductions go, AFAIA we haven't been told all their hero names so I quite liked that, I certainly didn't know most of them by those names at all and I suspect most don't either, why pick on that?

Like I said nothing wrong with this episode it wasn't Naruto quality filler at all. Nice set up for what looks to be a pretty good second episode based on the imdb rating.

Naruto: Shippûden: Furupawâ kekkon iwai
(2017)
Episode 495, Season 1

I don't get the lack of love for this episode
Honestly, I wish more of Naruto was done this way, the animation is quite good and obviously they had quite a bit of fun with the characters of Lee, Tenten, Guy, Orochimaru and Yamato. Great episode.

The Day After Tomorrow
(2004)

Nothing wrong with this
Not super gripping or suspenseful but just a good all round by the books disaster film, good acting, reasonably entertaining, never boring. I was expecting worse based on everything I've seen and heard about it, but it's a solid watch.

Transformers: War for Cybertron
(2020)

Where's the real Transformers at?
Just a bunch of scenes thrown together, no real character development. This series is just like a lot of other Transformers stuff that's come earlier.. PRIME and Beastwars are still the best series after G1.

Doom Patrol: Finger Patrol
(2020)
Episode 5, Season 2

Great
Some nice stuff here.. not a huge fan of Cyborg's love life but I guess he's a main character now.. Rita got a bit done over this episode.. things get a bit crazy here and there and that ending.. OOF.
