My Holo Love
(2020)

Its a Netflix series Kdrama. Take it as it is.
It's a good show. Clearly not a masterpiece, but it's still solid for what it is. Don't go into it thinking the AI concept is going to have you up all night pondering the future. This show isn't like that and didn't intend to be like that. Anyways.. Many people are giving this a 5 or 6 and saying they quit watching after 4 or 5 episodes. It's predictable in many ways, but if you watch it without obsessively searching for errors, then it's likely you'll enjoy it like a did.

Kiru ra kiru: KILL la KILL
(2013)

Extremely entertaining (WATCH IT)
Super over the top which sounds like a bad thing but trust me it's not. It was very entertaining and fun to watch. It was funny, raunchy, weird, sad, badass and just about every other descriptive word with "very" before it. With all the blinding raunchiness and action it could be easy to miss some things. For example, the character building (which I thought was excellent for a show Like this).

Another big plus is the unique art style awesome sound track.

Captain Marvel
(2019)

Meh
The beginning makes you want to leave the theatre but it gets gradually better until it reaches "meh" to okay territory near the end.

Cons: action is not good, spotty cgi, Larson didn't feel like the right pick for CM (dull and dry), character doesn't grow and isn't very dynamic, pacing is off, story is meh overall.

Pros: Fury is funny and arguably the best part of the film, some funny parts (mainly meh), some of the visuals were great, a few of the scenes were actually solid.

Side note: wasn't a feminazi film, just got marketed as one (and Larson's whole thing). Verdict: doesn't excel at anything and is terrible at quite a few things.

Red Dead Redemption II
(2018)

Amazing but can feel slow and drawn out at times
Good: Amazing story, voice acting, visuals, score, and attention to detail. Bad: a lot of the things you do feel excruciatingly tedious, controls are useable but not good, a lot of things are just slow to the point where you're like "seriously is this necessary?"

Overall an amazing game with only a few downsides

Alita: Battle Angel
(2019)

Ignore the critics
The critics rating this 40/100 are way off. Sure, it has some cringey dialogue but it's based off of a manga so that really isn't even a flaw. CGI and sound we're 10/10 and action was 10/10. One thing that it could've done better is adding 15-20 more minutes to explore more subtle things in details and perhaps have a different ending. Overall. Great movie

Black Panther
(2018)

Mediocre
Overrated asf. Story was mildly interesting but people like it's "relevance" more than its quality..
