Chelsea Handler: Revolution
(2022)

Can't believe I watched the whole thing
I kept thinking maybe it would get better and I watched the entire show. I have watched all of her others plus seen her live 3 times and enjoyed all of them. Thoroughly enjoyed. I don't know what the heck this was, I barely cracked a smile and never once laughed. What happened Chelsea? You had to have known this sucked before you put it out. Uganda be Kididng Me was the best! If you want to watch something actually funny watch that. Hilarious! Her books are all good too, she is usually funny so I don't know what happened here. Maybe she was in a hurry to get this out? I had really hoped to like this but total waste.

Queenpins
(2021)

Pleasantly surprised
Ok maybe if you were not part of the coupon world back in the day this movie may seem far fetched. I was deep into it and still do it but I use digital coupons now, not paper. There literally was tons of coupon fraud going on and there really was a guy that his life's mission 24/7 was to try and put people in jail for coupon fraud. He would infiltrate the coupon groups, he did whatever he had to to make life hell for couponers. It was actually quite funny thinking back on it, and they definitely nailed the Ken character because that is actually spot on to what I think of when I think back to that guy. Although the one in the movie is fictional, he does remind me of the real life one that was over zealous about coupon use. I enjoyed the movie, light hearted and funny although the part about Ken in the car during a stake out was a little much and not needed but it did show how far this guy was willing to go and I would bet money the real life guy actually would have done that. The dude was crazy. Any of you couponers know who I am talking about. Anyway I enjoyed it and it brought back good memories of when I would coupon and the store would actually owe me money so I would have to add on a candy bar or something so they wouldn't get in trouble for giving money back. Good times! If you want the real life version of what happened watch Pink Collar Crime, episode 6.

Pom Poms and Payback
(2021)

Wow Lifetime, can it get any worse?!
I am an avid fan of Lifetime movies, I have watched them all since day 1 of the channel. This has got to be the worst one I have ever seen. Bad acting all the way around and that last scene of the cheerleader gymnastics attack is ridiculous. The whole thing is crazy. Lifetime has totally forgotten who it's viewers are so I'm guessing a guy writes these, all the ones that have the long stupid chase scenes at the end. Ya'll need to stick to the true story made for Lifetime movies, those are classic and always good!

Stay Here
(2018)

Love the show, look forward to the next season!
Had a hard time deciding between a 7 or an 8 for this show. I love the designs, the 70's one was spectacular! What is missing is the details like others have said. How much is the owner's budget for renovations (or did the show pay for some?) and did they stay within budget? Did it pay off? Do these places even have bathrooms!? Lol! Seriously though, I think I caught a glimpse of a bathroom once and that's it. This show would be a def 9 out of 10 for me if they discussed the renovation budget, showed us a bathroom once in awhile and did the follow up at the end of the show or at least have the last show of the season 100% dedicated to following up on each owner and whether it's worked out or not. & please stop the slow mo's of Genevieve, really weird!

Believe Me: The Abduction of Lisa McVey
(2018)

Amazing story!
Ok sometimes Lifetime Movie Network movies aren't the greatest, BUT, I continue to watch them because occasionally they will hit one out of the park, and this is a perfect example. This is a true story, not exaggerated or dramatized, the real deal on what really happened and Lisa herself telling in her own words what happened here and there was a perfect touch. Amazing but horrific story turned into a great movie! & for Lisa, I am so happy Lifetime got this right as she is an amazing woman and Lifetime captured that perfectly.

Serial Killer with Piers Morgan
(2017)

Piers, what the heck?!
Piers, you can't possibly interview a serial killer and get any useful information or insight by antagonizing them. I understand you feel for the families, I do too, but pissing these killers off is getting you nowhere IF you want information from them. The whole point I thought was to gain some insight or to get them to admit to something they wouldn't before. Neither happened and will never happen with your interviewing style. Now if that wasn't the point of your interviews then I'm not sure what was. Just to chat and piss them off? You wanna see how it's done just ask me, I would love to show you how it's done! Your interview style can be great for some things but this is not one of them.

Life
(2017)

The poor rat
The crew were such morons I was sure the rat was their savior. The smartest living thing in the movie (the rat) got killed and after that things were just so boring I got on Pinterest and left the movie running in the background while my husband finished watching it. How he could even finish it makes me question the IQ of the person I married.

Beatriz at Dinner
(2017)

Save your time and money
One of the worst movies I have ever seen! The healer was sooo freakin annoying and I'm even into that healing stuff and I couldn't stand her. She was so annoying I was rooting for one of the rich people in the movie to kill her, you could tell someone was going to die in the movie you just don't know who till the end, so I was hoping it would be her. And by the way, don't invite her to a party, she's a real buzz kill. The only redeeming entertainment this movie had was the rich people, especially the richest couple, their banter was pretty funny.

The Car
(1977)

I was rooting for the car!
It's pretty bad when the best acting was from "The Car". The actual car. I was rooting for "The Car" to run everyone over, especially the annoying teacher (nothing against teachers, just this one!). I actually cheered when the car ran the teacher over & wished it had happened sooner! Christine is much better! This is kind of like one of those movies that's so bad it's good, like "Frogs" but "Frogs" actually pulled it off, this movie I pretty much laughed through the whole thing & hoped The Car would kill them all off. The acting was pretty bad, I couldn't stand any of the characters but the movie was good for a laugh but that's pretty much it. Don't waste any money buying it that's for sure.
