Invasion (2021)
Agonizingly Slow Show
Unbelievably hard watch. Extremely slow and way too much time spent on the individual characters and trying to give their back story. The main characters were extremely annoying and aggravating, each one. Their decision making were very questionable and did not lead my to sympathize with them. In fact it was the opposite. It lead me to hate them the more and more I watched the show. They were annoying, focused on meaningless things in a time of crisis, they acted cowardly, and did things that didn't make sense. Again a hard watch that I had to take a break from the show. Be prepared to be aggravated. Be prepared to question why you started a show that you could not stop watching because you wanted to at least get to the action. If you have the time and patience, then feel free to indulge but you have been warned.
Fear the Walking Dead (2015)
Major Fail in the Final Season
Talk about a show that falls flat in its face. This show continued to go downhill season after season. The story lines just got worse and worse and the characters because extremely annoying. Morgan went from a respected character to someone who became unbearable as the seasons wore on. He was easy to root for early on but simply put you off especially in this last season. Even the the new characters in the last season were forgettable. I felt like this show should have either merged with TWD at some point or just ended. They strung it along too far and honestly the story writing was sub par. I only gave it a 6 because I invested way too much time over the years watching it. Oh well.
The Road (2009)
The End is Grim
It is a very disturbing view of an apocalyptic world. The father was not afraid to make the difficult choices and if not for the commitment to his son, probably would have given up sooner; however, I am not sure I would I have been able to survive with a child like that. He was extremely annoying and naive. You would have thought he might have been tougher living and experiencing such a difficult world. He was not, in fact the complete best opposite. Granted I have never had to deal with an apocalyptic world so who knows but still, I think I would have made the difficult decision to leave the god forsaken world. Call it a defeatist attitude but there was clearly no future.
F.E.A.R. (2021)
Would Could Have Been.....
This movie had the potential to be a good one but unfortunately it failed. The decisions of the main characters were incredibly suspect to the point where as a movie goer, you are cursing and yelling at your TV, questioning what the hell they are doing. You would think that being in their situation, the main characters would be smarted. That was not quite the case. The overall plot was very typical of a standard post apocalyptic scenario. It did have a slightly different spin but instead of capitalizing, it get mired in back stories, drawn out conversations between enemies and again horrible decisions. If I hadn't gotten halfway through, I would have stopped watching it.
Srpski film (2010)
Unsettling.
I can only rate this a 5 because I am not sure how to feel about this film. It was very unsettling. I had seen this movie reviewed so many times as horror movie. Not quite sure this is even a genre for it. Honestly the perversion of the director really makes you wonder how is it that there are people out the world that actually really enjoys this stuff. This was a close to snuff as I would imagine. I felt very uncomfortable with 9mm but then this. It's wrong, very wrong, in so many many different ways. Tell you this much, I will never go to Serbia. I may never even look at Serbian person in the same way after watching this film.
The Last of Us (2023)
Can you say overrated?
This show was overhyped. It did not live up to the billing was only a walking dead without the zombies. Liked Bella Ramsey in Game of Thrones but not in this show. She is borderline irritating at times and her attitude has a tendency to put you off. I know this wasn't supposed to be realistic but there were seems that seemed to far fetched. One person navigating through a hospital full of trained mercenaries. Really? I only watched the entire first season because my daughter wanted to watch it. She liked it but that is because she knew what to expect from the start. Not sure I have the capacity to watch a second season. I am certainly not anticipating it like I do with other shows.
Sebelum Iblis Menjemput (2018)
Failed Miserably
This movie had potential but failed miserably because of how dumb they made these characters. The way they acted and react, it was so pathetic. They were so incompetent and basically asked to be tortured, attacked and beaten. It's like they ran into the face of evil at each turn. I wanted to shut it off halfway through the movie because I could tell it was going to get worse as it went on. The gore and special effects were certainly there and the plot was decent but they made a mess of the characters. So disappointed because it really could have been better. Really turned out to be a hot mess.
Blade of the 47 Ronin (2022)
It Wanted to Be Good......
Thought this was going to be a good martial arts movie but it just didn't get there. Acting was okay but some real corny parts. When you think of martial arts movies, you think of respect and honor. The character Omani was pretty annoying. She didn't do as she was told and lacked discipline. There was a fight scene which was a practice and the fighting was poor. Clearly did not make them look like elite killers. The positive was having Dustin Nguyen and legend Mark Degascos in a movie together. Overall disappointing considering how decent the first one was. Probably should have rewatched the first one.
Terrifier (2016)
Really? Dumpster fire of a movie!
This goes from a rather creepy psycho horror movie to a supernatural dumpster fire. I love me a good horror movie but this wasn't it. The plot is horrible, acting was even worse and you spend most of the movie yelling at the screen because it was so bad. Transitions between scenes were brutal and honestly it was a like several folks were able to blindly put scenes of a movie together and which resulted in this crapola fest. Lost 2 hours of my life that I will never get back. My daughter who was begging me to watch this movie said it was one of the worst movies that she has scene. I would to agree with her assessment.
Fear the Walking Dead: Gone (2022)
Losing Faith in this Show
These plots are becoming seriously ridiculous. The characters are becoming irritating. I honestly don't know that I can watch another season of this nonsense.
Fear the Walking Dead: Amina (2022)
A new low!
This episode hurt my feelings. It was cringeworthy to be honest. I struggled to watch it and actually started doing other things like laundry, washing dishes, etc. At this point I don't think I will mind it this show ends soon. It has gotten ridiculously bad.
