How to Sell Drugs Online (Fast)
(2019)

Original In Multiple Ways
I quite like this show for a varying amount of reasons. First of all i appreciated that it was just placed in germany with local actors being used. We do not see this nearly enough in the industry in my opinion.

The show itself centers around these teenagers getting into selling drugs due to varying reasons. And while the show is only six episodes long, with 30 minutes or so per episode, it manages to tell a sweet and rich story in this short amount of time.

the acting was overall good, the story believable and it was quite entertaining to watch. I also appreciated the original and unique elements that are shown throughout this series, like the actual skip button being displayed as the main character says to skip a portion of the episode if you are bored when something is explained in detail etc.

It was a fun journey to experience and i enjoyed the show.

Somewhat Cute But Predicatable
This movie is a perfect example of a tried and tested formula working well enough to produce a somewhat entertaining movie but without any creatice elements really included what so ever. every step of this film seems like it has been made after the same old white paper, with nothing added for actual substance.

While yes, it is somewhat entertaining and cute from time to time, there is nothing in this film that will really capture you or make you invested in what is happening. If anything this film will give you that feel-good feeling but not much more.

A Suprisingly Wholesome, Pervy Lolicon Show
After finishing Wataten this show seemed like an even more pervy version of that, and indeed it is. The whole premise of this show is quite adorable and I quite liked a lot of the characters.

Some people will rate this lowly simply because of the theme, but I think that is idiotic. I personally think the show is very enjoyable and I love the sort of pervy lolicon humor that is going on throughout. Some may find it creepy, but I for one find it funny and entertaining.

A Perfect Mix of Cuteness And Lolicons
This anime sounded a bit interesting to me so I decided to watch it. It is truly an adorable anime with cuteness for miles on end in each and every episode. I did also quite enjoy the sort of pervy element and everything that came with it. This is a very adorable show that has likable characters, good pacing, humor, and some nice lolis to boot.

Trinity Seven: Heavens Library & Crimson Lord

A Solid Addition To The Series
Now this movie really got a lot of things right i would say. If you have watched the series up till now you will know what it is all about. This series is not about good storytelling or amazing visuals, it is about lewdness, sexual humor, romcom, perviness and more.

On those points i feel this movie really delivered. There was a good amount of lewd content and lots of great scenes containing it. Not only that, but you could see the makers really knew what this series is about when you notice that even during fight scenes or other similar scenes you can see that some of the girl's skirts move up just enough to see a glimmer of their panties etc. To me that is just what this show is supposed to be about and i enjoyed it for that.

The action scenes were fairly good in this as well considering. I liked the overall animation and effects when it came to the action sections. I would also like to point out that the sound effects are much, much better than in the previous movie, and thankfully so i might add.

If you are considering to watch this for good story or anything like that you have come to the wrong place. But if you are interested in seeing an entertaining, lewd, funny harem series then this is something you will enjoy.

MC Still Great, Most Other Things Still Mediocre
The first Trinity Seven movie keeps the same great MC personality and general approach to the series. That being said, there are some things in this movie that were no doubt worse than the first season.

The biggest gripe i have with this movie are the sound effects. They are frankly quite annoying and do not at all sound like you would expect/hope. The sounds are sometimes so annoying to the ear that i turned the volume down multiple notches.

I did once again appreciate the lewdness and general perviness that this series is known for, but i wouldn't have minded even more than what was included. The story is once again mediocre at best when it comes to this series, but the action scenes were at least semi-good and entertaining this time around.

To me this movie is a decent follow up to the first season, and while it has its own issues, it keeps the core of the series the same, and executes it in an alright fashion.

I Enjoyed The Lewdness, But That's About It
This show has a decent premise and all, but I do not feel it does much in terms of storytelling. the pacing, depth, reasoning and more are flawed at best, which makes this not really a show that many can enjoy from a story point of view at all. Some of the characters are interesting and funny, and some of them do show some development during the 1st season. The biggest reason to watch this anime though is for the lewd/sexy content in my opinion. There are lots of panty shots, semi-naked scenes as well as just kinky situations throughout. On that premise, I will give the show a decent score, but it could no doubt use some improvements.

The Heartwarming Version of Food-Wars
This show was really a comfortable, heartwarming and sheer joyful experience. This anime was far from something that simply covered some different types of dishes, it really did create an atmosphere of how people enjoy food, and each other's company. It was a really pleasant journey and a wonderful anime that will no doubt make you feel warm as well as make you smile, while also showing you lots of delicious food.

This Was The Humor That Was Made For Me
This show seemed like a simple romcom at first sight, but the ridiculousness and sheer perverseness as well came as a huge good surprise to me. I loved all the dark humor, sexual humor and everything else in between. The romance element was also there from time to time which made the show just that much cuter overall. A really funny great show if you are into this sort of thing, but it is not for everyone I suppose.

Likeable Characters, Lackluster Story
So, this show is a mix for me. I kind of enjoyed some of the mecha combat, and the character design isn't too bad at all either. But I did not love the CGI at all during many scenes, and I just feel that the story lacks a lot of depth. If I was only to judge the character designs then maybe id give it a higher score, but as it stands with the current story being as lackluster and in many ways basic as it is, I just can't bring myself to give it more than a 3/5. I did see some glimpses of some interesting story aspects, but they were not nearly fleshed out enough to mean much.

A Hartwarming Experience
This show is one of the few romance shows that don't get stuck up on the pre-relationship part but actually focuses mostly on actual love and care within an actual relationship. there is a lot of depth to this show as well as having a truly heartwarming charm. Every episode I feel like smiling and laughing, it is truly well made in that sense. This is a great show, and I think it is a truly great show if you can relate to some of the feelings and dilemmas going on, like I myself can.

Maleficent
(2014)

it's another Disney movie.
this is another one of those movies where you know what's gonna happen most of the time. but this time i actually got surprised on some specific occasions, which was a breath of fresh air, in my opinion. when you sit down and prepare to watch a Disney movie, you have certain expectations about how the movie is going to be. when i sat down to watch this movie, i had those same expectations from Disney. but i was pleasantly surprised when Disney for once actually did something different with the story.

the plot was intriguing enough, i did like the good/evil concept that was going on through the movie. but i have to say, Angelina Jolie is definitely the highlight of this movie. she outplays everyone else, without doubt. i like the new take on the "sleeping beauty" story. i think they pulled of the concept decently well. but then again, you have that predictable world that Disney loves to create, and that may be fine for all the kids, but i just want something more original from Disney. i know that that's the Disney trademark, but i don't enjoy it that much. but in this movie, Disney did go towards a more original storyline, which is really positive.

overall, this movie is another one of those predictable Disney movies, but with some new additions. so if you have a kid, then i think he will like this movie a lot, it's a great "family" movie. but for people like me,who likes creativity form movies (even Disney) are most likely going to find this movie to be averagely good, with some goodies along the way.

hope you found this review helpful :)

The Kite Runner
(2007)

It's okay in my opinion
Keep in mind that I have not read the book, so my opinions are not going to include any comparisons or opinions of the book.

I gave this movie a 7, and here is the reason. I found the story to be captivating and exiting through a lot of the movie, but sometimes the story just felt dead and boring. The story has a decent amount of depth to it, but that also gets sort of blurred when the movie is reaching it's middle. The characters were decently good overall, even though sometimes some of the characters felt very cliché like. The overall message of the movie is all fine and good, but the drama that really kicks in an hour or so into the movie, really puts me off. The whole drama thing as I said, is way to much for my taste, which ruins the movie for me just a little bit.

There are also some parts of the movie that I found to be quite unrealistic, which further brought the movie down for me. Overall the movie has a good concept, but in some areas fails to pull it off. But if you are into middle eastern or drama based films and way of thought, then this movie is definitely worth seeing.

Elizabeth: The Golden Age
(2007)

this movie is OK
Fighting for England, will they survive? That is what this movie is mostly about.

The plot: this movie is trying to revive old English history and I think it is a good idea in general, but they don't really seem pull it off in my opinion. I like that they are at least trying to make a historical correct film, but as the movie goes on you just see more and more drama that sort of ruins the point and the movie in my opinion. Except that, the plot is interesting and intriguing.

The theme and setting really works well together as the movie progresses in my opinion.

I did enjoy the story of the characters and how they developed throughout the movie. i did not like the kind of psychotic Elizabeth coming forth a little bit in the movie, i just think that it sends the wrong message. the other characters where OK, by that i mean that i did not find anything intriguing with the characters, also i found their story to be sort of weird and boring.

so to sum up this review, i would say it is a more or less good movie for kids/young adults because of the truth the movie is based on. it is also surely nice for people especially interested in history. i did not want to give this movie more than a 6/10. but keep in mind that i watched this movie in green because of some technical issues, also i was continuously tormented by some of my "friends" during the movie and that brought it a little more down for me.

Sofies verden
(1999)

what is the point of this movie.
the concept just doesn't work. the acting is terrible and the actors cant seem to show any emotion. the book is about philosophy and how the world works. the movie doesn't seem to capture that. it is supposed to reflect the book but it really does not. the movie is sad to watch i wanted to just stop watching and go destroy the disc, but i watched the hole movie to write this review. if you have the choice to either watch this movie or read a hundred bad books definitely choose the books. instead of making the movie about philosophy its just about wrong history lessons and terrible actors. i hope you found this preview helpful.
