Party of Five
(1994)

Barley Acceptable
For starters I think this show is overrated. It is just good enough to keep you watching, but at times I think it is a tad slow.

The characters especially Charley especially Charley are all kind of worthless, Charley the older brother and the one "in charge" gets worse and worse every season. He constantly makes stupid mistakes and he's always crying and whining about everything, the younger siblings are better then he is, yeah Claudia and Owen are annoying and Julia is pretty worthless too, but Charley takes the cake by the time 1998-1999 came around Charley should have been able to show more leadership and better leadership he would have been in his late 20's, but no I don't know why, but you can bet that if Charley made the decision it would be the wrong decision. What ticks me off so much about Charley is he never bothered to listen to the other characters. Bailey while a little bit of a dope, is much more competent and more prone to listening to things then Charley.

I just can't stand the character Charley he's just the worse at first I felt bad for him, but the deeper you get into the series you can tell he's just a fool.

The only two characters who are worth there salt are Griffin and Sarah. I didn't like Griffin at first, but he's a harder and better worker and more reasonable and makes more sense then Charley.

The show over all I think is kind of slow at times and certainly bottoms out a little here and there. However they do keep it going just enough to keep interest. However there have been times where I wonder how this show made it, because frankly the characters are not all that likeable, and after a while there hard to care for.

Sin City
(2005)

Biggest Piece
Fantastic special effects and camera work really done well on that end. On the other end though this movie is the biggest piece of gynocetric trash I've seen to date. It's also way to politically correct for a bunch of people who live in an evil dark awful town. Everyone in this movie is bad yet there concerned about some hookers getting killed even though frame after frame after frame men are being slaughtered and nobody is saying a darn thing. Pretty soon if all the men get slaughtered the hookers aren't going to have much of a business left, but I bet none of you thought of that and then what are the hookers going to do all stand out in the cold and rain wondering what happened? (Probably) This film is total trash. I saw it when it first came out on video back in 2005-2006 didn't even make it the whole way through.

The Ladykillers
(2004)

Good Movie
I found this movie in certain parts to be an absolute riot. I think Tom Hanks did a great job in this film, and the dialogue he used was just great and he played a great character.

However my favorite character in the film was Garth Pancake, that part was cast perfectly and that character was hysterical. Everything he said that was the "easiest thing in the world" was actually really hard and ended up crashing down and blowing up in there face and it was a laugh riot. It's been a while since I had a good laugh and this film gave me a couple good laughs and I'm glad to have gotten them. The only character I did not like was the Wayne's brother he wasn't needed he added nothing and did nothing, but cuss and act out. The rest of the characters and cast were all done really well.

The Wedding Date
(2005)

Well they did a good job on one end.
Debra Messing does a great, actually she does a fantastic job of playing a looser. Her character in this film is kind of a looser. The character Messing plays has a job and fantastic looks and all that, but that doesn't mean you can't be looser and her character is just that a looser and she does a fantastic job of playing that character so I give her props for that. Which is where the one star I gave this film comes from.

Now the rest of the movie was not good, her romance with Dermot Mulroney to me was not developed at all. The movie it's self was put together kind of clunky. Her and Mulroney I'm sorry had no chemistry and the rest of the characters who even cares. I did not care for this film except to say that Debra Messing did a great job of playing a total looser character.

One Day
(2011)

Only 3 parts of this film I liked
I'm not the target audience for a film like this, I'll freely admit that, but sometimes I'll just watch almost anything. Well I decided I was going to watch this. Well for the most part and I'll throw some spoilers in here, but there were three parts of this film I liked.

I liked the beginning where Anne Hathaway comes out of the bathroom wearing her graduation gown and cap and not much more. I also liked the part where they cuddled up in bed to go to sleep for the night and then I liked the part where Hathaway grabbed that other mans hand in the restaurant on like there 10 year anniversary or something. Out side of those three small very well acted parts the rest of the movie wasn't that good.

For one in real life Dexter and Emma would have long since parted ways. They had no reason to stay friends for 20 years like they did most people in real life would have parted ways and they would have never seen each other again. Let's be honest in real life friendships come and friendships go people change paths change direction etc etc. The whole film I'm sitting there going "there's no reason for these two Dex and Em to be dragging this friendship out this long. It was painful to watch because you could tell the two characters were really struggling to keep a "friendship" alive that well to be honest had no real reason to be kept alive. I guess the acting was okay I just thought the film was a bit slow and the story wasn't really all that romantic.

Frances Ha
(2012)

Hipsters are not interesting
This movie I think looked on the cover of the box that might be something, to me it never got going. I made it through it however I'll tell you right now (spoiler alert) it is very painful to watch at about the 1/2 hour in mark. I almost turned it off that's how bad it was starting to get. It kind of pulls it's self together extremely loosely, but the movie doesn't work that well. It's basically about of hipster clowns who talk like idiots and have conversations of zero context and all think they are smarter then they really are. Any normal person on the street would go "Do you hear how these young kids talk to each other these days and what they talk about? They sound like a bunch of idiots and they talk like a bunch of idiots." I am part of the "millennial generation" but I am in no way shape or form any part of this goofy hipster movement I don't go near these people.

This girl Greta Gerwig she's kind of pretty and I think might be fun to go on a date with I think she's mildly attractive and she does seem fun, however her character in this movie blows. Her as a dancer doesn't work at all. I don't know if that's what the director and the writers were going for, but she's way to manish to pass off as a dancer and she's way to obsessed with her friend Sophie who by the way is to me useless in this film. The friend Sophie her character is nothing and you know this whole movie kind of stunk. It was just stuck in neutral the whole time.

The part (spoiler alert) where she traveled to Paris was pretty much worthless don't really know what that proved, besides she was just acting like a poseur. I mean really these characters in this mover were really all just a bunch of poseurs. I didn't much care for any of them and there is a fringe group that does live like this, but it's just that a fringe group. I didn't think this movie was anything great. I made it to the end, but it was hard especially that half hour in mark eww that was difficult to get past that.
