Silent Witness
(1996)

Originally outstanding
The last two series have let it down, unfortunately! Writing has gone awry and some of the actors cannot act. Lucky there are still two stalwarts left acting!

Vigil
(2021)

Not a bad story...
...unfortunately let down by the lack of research making it very frustrating to watch. Quite frankly I as pulling my hair out in the end. Yes it's a 'story' & not a 'documentary' . Still, research should always play a big part and the lack of it consequently ruined it.

SAS: Red Notice
(2021)

Waste of time!
Andy!!!! You really thought this 'Film' was okay to release?!!

Absolute rubbish - I'd rather watch paint dry if given the choice again.

The Blair Witch Project
(1999)

Undoubtedly the most..
....disappointing film ever. I've seen animated films more frightening and quite frankly cannot see what all the fuss was about. Waste of time - goodness knows how I can get that time back...

Tenet
(2020)

Who made the comparison with Bond?!
Well - Absolutely nothing like it. Disappointing really and found it quite bizarre!! Rating was for the SFX - and nothing else really. I found the height difference between Elizabeth Debicki and everyone else in the cast questionable - as in why? To me the continuity was wrong. I'd have preferred my main man Idris Elba to play the leading role - no offence, he's just a better actor!

Finding Alice
(2021)

Really ITV?
Quite frankly I found it annoying and a waste of my time. I did give it a chance and sat through two episode. The cast high quality - let down by poor script I feel. Just downright disappointing.

Black Narcissus
(2020)

Too tame...
...had the opportunity of being so much more! The storyline is very good and it had so much potential. Disappointing really, as the list of actors was impressive and no bad performances. A sprinkle of sex, violence and some ruffty tuffey fun would have been excellent!!

Warrior
(2019)

Quite simply the best thing since sliced bread.
Fight sequences are outstanding, acting is top notch, it's well written, produced and directed. Come on! Bruce Lee's daughter is one of the producers, can't be anything else but brilliant!! Seriously? Need I say anything else?

3022
(2019)

Disappointing
What a shame...not a bad idea really, cast let themselves down really....and the writing was OTT (over the top)

Absolutely awful. .

Terminator: Dark Fate
(2019)

How I hoped it wouldn't be...
Not going to waste my time with a review on this...however...Absolutely shocking and out of respect for the original I've given this a two.

Penny Dreadful: City of Angels
(2020)

Penny awful
Really?!! Why?! It doesn't live up to its namesake, so why on earth mention it in the same breath?? If this had been a 'new series' then it might of had a chance. It doesn't. I watched two episodes and I expected some connection with the original series....absolutely nothing at all. So disappointed...

Bancroft
(2017)

Proof read by ex-Police? No a chance
No procedures, no challenging when stepping out of line?? What first aider does not wear appropriate gloves & then treat a wound without disinfecting herself, then use toilet paper to treat the wound....and then not scrub after...I'm sure all Police marksman shoot an armed gunman in the leg too....laughable really!!

Smokin' Aces
(2006)

A wannabe Guy Richie film....
.....not a bad effort though. Enjoyed it, decent music and cast! Perhaps just tried too hard.

The Witcher
(2019)

A true honest review
Some very good actors in this series. I find it "trying too hard" & wanting to be more like GOT... The first episode left me thinking what a waste of talent....poor script & comes across rushed. I don't think I'll be wasting my time on episode two...

Tomb Raider
(2018)

Seriously?!!
Really disappointed with the acting bearing in mind you do have quality actors in it. Original films are far superior.l to this - if you liked them, I suggest not to bother watching this!

Dirty Dancing
(2017)

Waste of time so don't bother!!
The original film is/was amazing. Acting? What acting? Singing? A little of that! Dancing? You call that dancing!!!! Wast of time so don't bother!
