InSecurity (2011)
Awful
Insecurity was awful. I saw three episodes and I think I deserve a medal or a cookie for being able to force myself just to watch that much. In three whole episodes I didn't laugh not even one time but I groaned at how awful the acting and the jokes were at least a dozen times, like audibly groaned, for real, because it was so horrible. That's how bad this show was. At least in my opinion, I can't speak for everyone, but will say that everyone I have talked to and know who ever watched this show thought it sucked. I am very suspicious of the positive reviews here because I have honestly not met many people who say they ever saw this show, and every one of the people who have told me they saw it said it was the worst. Maybe it's a regional thing and other regions like the show better? I have no idea. But this show was really horrible as far as I'm concerned. It's easily one of the worst written shows CBC has ever made and the cast was terrible.
Son of God (2014)
Wonderful, Beautiful Cinema Experience!
Mark Burnett and Roma Downey have scored with a great movie here! I had no idea Roman Downey was even involved in this movie in any way until I went to see it. But I know her work from Touched by an Angel and even though I was not a huge fan of that show it was a good series for the whole family, just not my cup of tea or whatever. This movie though is amazing! It's not just for Christians either. The performances are fantastic and the sets and just the scenery and locations are really well done and just beautiful. You can't beat the story either and it will definitely uplift you and make you feel wonderful, it's the kind of thing that will touch your heart. Again I don't just mean for Christian audiences. Give it a try, it's worth seeing! I'm very surprised that the rating isn't higher here.
Thor: The Dark World (2013)
Good!
I actually liked the first Thor movie better, but that could be because when I saw the first movie it was in a huge theatre and we got to watch it in 3D which for movies like this adds a lot to the experience. It was great seeing the characters back, there is a lot of good funny moments to go with some really good action scenes. I'm not a huge fan of the comic book character of Thor so I obviously prefer other movies about super heroes but it's still pretty good. I went into the first one with low expectations and really enjoyed that movie a lot, this one I had higher expectations and maybe that's why I thought the movie was really good but not quite great. I would see another Thor movie if and when it comes out, fun and worth seeing for sure, fan of these movies or no you will find stuff to enjoy in them.
Satisfaction (2013)
Just Average
This show isn't as awful as most of the negative reviews here but also is not as great as most of the positive reviews here. I would agree with what the negative reviews seem to be saying about the acting that bad acting or characters is the major problem with this show. I for one did not like or believe the main couple leading the cast of the show. They did not seem like believable characters and especially the lead male actor was not very likable. I didn't ever feel like I got to know any of the characters and never felt like I should care much about them or their lives. They are poor losers but can afford a huge apartment in Toronto? Why not get a place with one less bedroom so they don't have to share with their equally old friend? I just never understood why these three people were living together especially when they have nothing in common but also don't even really seem to like each other. Their mooching friend gave them nothing and was never nice to them. That character was also unbelievable and annoying as a person but could sometimes be funny, but the main two characters never seemed very funny to me. I don't have a problem with the other characters in their lives. It was neat to see a Canadian show set in Toronto and I actually know the storefront they are using for the coffee shop because I walk by it every day! I think the show was maybe too ambitious, another reviewer mentioned how maybe things are going too fast and maybe there was a bit too much going on quickly. I don't feel qualified to judge the directing and writing but it seemed like there were some very funny jokes and also stuff that fell flat, so I think an average vote over all is fair! 5 out of 10!
