Reviews
Black Sails (2014)
Gets pretty talky 3/4 through.
You can read the other reviews. This is a good show for a pirate show and its not scared to make moves. It gets a lot of points for "how the hell are they going to get out of this one." Theres actually a lot of scenes on boats, which is nice and kind of gives a pirates life which is why I watched this show.
.... buuuut..... imho, it gets pretty darn talk about 3/4 through the seasons. Season 1 was good enough to pick up season 2 which was pretty good and pretty actiony I guess and drew me into season 3 which imo bogged way down with "politics" and the prostitutes story line which imo they should have just cut her out because I got to find her and her accent annoying. I won't lie in that I got like 3, maybe 4 episodes into the last season and I'll be honest I couldn't drag myself to finish this although I have read that it does wrap up well but I'd just jump to the last two episodes because it just becomes talk between people or teams of who is going to out game who.
Few couple seasons though, pretty good.
The Head Hunter (2018)
In the vein of....
I don't write a lot of reviews so for me to actually seek out this page and for me to write this is a big deal for just myself. I, personally, think this movie is in the same veins as Dredd(the Kurl Urban one), maybe kinda The Revenant, maybe The Witch(2015).... I know exactly what this movie is like but I can't think of the other movie sadly.
This movie really has nothing to it. It is bare bones and fairly low budget but what they have done is still pretty great. I compare it to Dredd in that because both have minimal plots. Its just, heres the idea and go. Dredd was get to the top of the tower. This one is find and kill the beast for revenge. If you can't survive on just minimal set ups then you might not like this. If the dude visiting the grave twice doesn't show love to you, you might not like this. This is just a guy whoes kid was killed some undefined time ago and has been killing beasts for a local kingdom and sort of like a day in the life of until about the last 30 things or so. Keep in mind this movie is only like an hour.
The set and props are pretty good for the budget. His shack and his armor is pretty well done. His helm, I could nitpick about but it is what it is. The plot is minimal, which is a here nor there to me personally, it neither works for it or against it because I enjoyed it despite the lack of.
I just like the atmosphere of this movie and what they built. Thats just me though. I wish there were a few more like this one because I don't need to get spoon fed another heavy handed (marvel) plot. I like to be one and done.
Peeks your interest? Find it and watch it. =)
