Squid Game: The Challenge (2023– )

Confusing

[26 November 2023]

This is a confusing show.

This is supposed to be a TV-show, I don´t know where on TV it aired, but now it is here. If it is all prerecorded, and it´s not made clear in the beginning of the series that this actually was a tb-show, it can be very confusing. I did not know weather it was a TV-show/netflixshow (???) until I saw the comments.

Where is the intro in episode 1 that establish what kind of series this is? There are none.... How everything is presented, it looks like a group of people acting a TV-show, and they didn´t even delete divisive political comments which were made, and which serves no purpose, so they were left in there intentionally... If this actually is a real game-show, which I am still not convinced of, why would they not give some background information into the participants, so it at least could a bit entertaining?

How am I supposed to have an emotional attachment to any of the participants?

Don´t get this series, i´m out.

Squid Game: The Challenge: Red Light, Green Light (2023) Season 1, Episode 1

Very boring, I hope there will be a plot twist

[2/10 · 26 November 2023]

This was a big letdown, I am waiting for the continuation of the first series. I know there is a season 2 in the making, isn´t it?

This episode looks like a YouTube episode wannabe, I am hoping for a plot twist, but I don´t feel like watching. Who even is the star actor this series?

I dont get the point of anything, are they supposed to act as participants of a real show copying in the squid game, instead of just making a real tv-show about it?

If they are acting it, it means they have seen the original series as a tv-show, which discredit the series as real, within its own universe,

This show does not please anyone, unless there are some real action plot twist, but it´s already established that the squid game is fiction, so... Why even start the show like this?

Iron Fist (2017–2018)

Not a super hero series, an OK action drama kung fu series

[6/10 · 22 March 2017]

I have to give my honest opinion about this series, and it was not reay that good, I'd rather watch daredevil one more time.

Before I continue I will say I don't know how loyal this series is to its source, but I will only judge it as a series.

This series does not feel like a superhero series to me, it felt like an action drama kung fu series with a 90's moral of "killing is bad". The series starts off good, I liked the first 2 episodes, it was entertaining and the introduction of the characters was interesting and enjoyable. But as the series progress, Danny / Iron fist is just this confused childish kind of weak kung fu guy which on a rare occasion gets a very hard fist which he uses to break metal and wood with. I say he is kind of weak because I compare Iron fist's fighting to Colleen's. Colleen has been thought kung fu by her master which is not an iron fist, and she has a free spirited dojo where she trains youngsters. Danny has been trained every day for 15 years by a secret heavenly society of warrior monks, so it is annoying to me to see that colleen is putting up better fights than Danny.

In that regard, it reminded me of the movie the lone ranger.

Also, Danny is always being doubted by his friends, they always question he's decisions and thoughts. I understand that Danny is supposed to be naive, but it reached a point where I did not know if I should care for his ideas or actions. Other characters are also better written than Danny, like Ward (really liked him in this series), Joy and Harold. Maybe I could relate more to Danny if they dedicated an episode to how his life was in K'un Lun.

There are also some errors in the series that was difficult to ignore, like how fast did colleens sword wound (ep 12.) heal? How did it go about that Madame Gao ended up in Colleen's dojo? did she just willingly travel on a plane from China with them? How come Iron fist can't take a simple beating when a normal monk can be kicked in the nuts several times without blinking?

But I think personally, worst of all, there are certain moments that are sooo sloooooow I just wanted it to pass. Moments with a lot of dialogue which has long brakes, it kind of makes me think this series could have been 1 episode shorter. Luke Cage also had a lot of dialogue but I enjoyed those dialogues more, not sure why but maybe they felt more natural and Luke Cage is a more focused and relatable character.

Then there is the ending.... 90's cliché.

All in all, the series was good, but just that, I give it a 6 out of 10.

Iron fist, just an ordinary guy that could have been better of being trained by a blind guy for some years.

Ghostbusters: Answer the Call (2016)

Poor women for being casted in this awful movie

[1/10 · 22 March 2017]

This movie is one of the worst comedy movies I have ever watched and I have watched a lot of movies. The producers and directors of this movies deserve to be criticised for insulting so many people as well as women.

I tried to watch this movie with 4 family members, 2 fell asleep and 2 went, I was the only one left to watch the complete movie. The next day we just made fun of how bad it was.

This movie will in some years be known as one of those movies that are so bad it was good.

And I pray that if there will be made more remakes or sequels of movies that earlier has had a male cast but the second time around will have a female cast, that you please give them a good movie!

I give this movie 1 of 10 stars

Suicide Squad (2016)

Finally a good DC movie

[8/10 · 10 August 2016]

I just watched this movie today and I must say its a very good movie. I had some minor issues with the movie, like the lack of a theme, and some illogical short scenes but nothing important. The action is good, the editing is good, the movie is not to dark. Its NOT a Zack Snyder movie, and the art and action style kind of reminded me of Watchmen from time to time. This deserves a 7 star rating, however I gave it 8 for "saving" the DC movies and bringing its fans good entertainment. Its a better movie than the Zack Snyder superman movies and better than the amazing spiderman 2. Its worth your time and money.

Watch it!

Chromeskull: Laid to Rest 2 (2011)

From a great start & build-up to the worst ending of a horror movie.

[2/10 · 19 July 2016]

This movie is great for any gore lover, and it has some interesting kills. However, the best kills are in the middle of the movie which also is the high point of the movie. The plot of the movie is simple: Who survives the slasher? The killings are executed well and the effects are good, the gore is extreme and the chills are present. However, the last act was so poorly written and so illogical in any way that it completely ruined the movie for me. Everyone made the stupidest choices they could and there were no credibility to them. If you want to watch this movie just search it up on netflix and skip from kill to kill, that is the only thing interesting, and it will save you an hour of your life. a 2.5 out of 10

He Never Died (2015)

A fresh and interesting action-thriller-horror-comedy

[8/10 · 21 June 2016]

8 out of 10 stars (No spoilers!) First of all, I imagine this to be a movie that you either love or hate, but I believe more people will love it. He never died is a movie that's interesting from start to finish, its a story told a hundred times but somehow it seems new. Its a very new and fresh way of telling a story, and the characters has interesting personalities as well as funny dialogues. Seeing an outcast father trying to rescue his daughter hasn't been so interesting for a long time. And btw, I couldn't compare this to the first "taken" movie, but in its own way it as good if not better than "taken".

Watch it!!!!

Creep (I) (2014)

Interesting and unpredictable

[8/10 · 18 June 2016]

7,5 stars out of 10 (No spoilers). I enjoyed this movie and I liked how it was kind of short, like the older classic horror movie. I also really like how this movie is filmed and put together, it could have been filmed at any given time without changing the main plot. this movie could have been filmed in the 30's and instead of communicating by film they could communicate by letters. The movie is also very time less, it does not make any references to modern way of living, pop culture or brands, which means people watching this movie in 50 years will have no problem understanding it. Less is more in this case, and the idea behind this movie is also great. This movie touches on the purest basics of human psychology and ways of reaction, like being afraid, angry, lonely etc. There is no hocus pocus explanations for things in this movie, and the reactions are believable.

The title of this movie is creep, and the title fits this movie perfect. I love the creativity, simplicity and style of this movie. However, the ending could have been a little better, though what happened is not unbelievable.

This movie is interesting and unpredictable, its worth the time and it may be one of those movies that outlives many other more known horror movies. I even believe this movie may be better than other fresh horror movies being made these days like "It follows" and "Hush", time will tell.

Watch this movie!

Tusk (I) (2014)

This movie is entertaining

[9/10 · 8 December 2014]

I will make this review as short as can be as there is not much to say about it. (No spoilers)

I do not know for what audience this movie was made, but I sure really enjoyed it. And most important of all, good acting.

To sum it all up with one word, this movie is Entertaining:)

An entertaining horror comedy that I could find myself watching again at a later point in my life. For me this is already a cult classic!

9 out of 10 for originality, comedy, horror and good acting.

(This crap I have to write for IMDb to accept my review as they refuse a review with less than 10 lines, and that bullshit. I'm not even aware of what they consider a line, since I've tried with ".", and "-" and just line shifts in between sentences, but not, it messes up the review. Something for IMDb to fix till the new year, because its annoying as being turned in to an ugly walrus)

Dark Secrets: Inside Bohemian Grove (2000 Video)

the bohemian grove does exist.

[10/10 · 16 January 2014]

This is a documentary made to expose the Boehmian Grove as real, and it does. No matter what one may think about bohemian grove one cannot deny that it exists anymore. This documentary is filmed with personal spy cams and doesn't offer the best quality footage, but who could have gone inside with a big camera anyway. Its worth a watch if your interested in knowing what people like, George W H Bush, Richard Nixon, Dwight D Eisenhower, , Herbert Hoover, Theodore Roosevelt, Donald Rumsfeld, David Rockefeller Sr. & Jr., Clint Eastwood, James Woods Henry ford, Jack London, Mark Twain, David Packard and Colin Powell has been up to in one of they're yearly vacations, and how religious symbols and themes play a part in the bohemian club. I gave this documentary a 10 out of 10, not because the quality of the documentary is excellent, but because its message is.
