The Iron Claw (2023)
Great material but felt rushed
Just watched this film. Movies based on public figures are always tricky, as they tend to gloss over aspects or completely remove them for the Director's narrative. This film has amazing material for its subject, however the Director did not do it the justice it deserved. Too little an emphasis was given to the brothers struggles that died. Scenes felt rushed when they should have been explored. Perhaps the studio suggested the edits be made to shorten the length of the film. Without knowing the real story you can predict easily what's going to happen. If a longer cut was to be distributed it would benefit the audience.
Parish (2024)
Gustavo would be disappointed
I am really trying to like this show, it's just trite and cliche so far. AMC and Giancarlo Esposito should be an instant hit with originality but this is not the case. Another mob related program but taking place in New Orleans. The location is different but the story is not. Nothing new or dynamic here. I'd recommend a pass as I doubt it's renewed for a season 2. Perhaps the writing could improve but it might be too late. Rewatch Boardwalk Empire or the sopranos. I'm three episodes in and am finding it difficult to not be bored. Maybe the season finale can turn things around but I won't hold my breath.
My Adventures with Superman (2023)
Made to check boxes
It's an odd Anime style show with Superman. I think it's geared for kids who have no idea about the comics. Just odd writing and plots. It feels like the writers were focusing on checking boxes per studio requirements. It has a few moments of promise but not many. Hopefully season two is a massive upgrade and the anime style is reduced. Overall it's a 5/10 with the chance to be more with better writing and art. Not sure what the main motivation or goal. Moreover, the voice acting in this cartoon is top-notch. The talented cast brings the characters to life, adding depth and emotion to their performances. It's evident that each voice actor is fully invested in their respective roles, delivering convincing performances that enhance the overall quality of the show..
Ms. Marvel: Generation Why (2022)
Yikes
I struggled to finish the first episode. I have watched all marvel shows from the beginning with the exception of this one. I hope it improves. If only it was a team up show.
What If...?: What If... Thor Were an Only Child? (2021)
Cash cow
This episode and this show as a whole are proof that quality at Marvel doesn't matter anymore.
Birds of Prey and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn (2020)
Why?
Why even make this movie?? It didn't add anything useful to the DCEU. Garbage movie.
The Walking Dead: World Beyond: Brave (2020)
Why??
Another WD spinoff. This show will have to go further and do things we have never seen before in the WD universe. The pilot was dull and the characters are not scene stealers. Maybe the episodes will get better but for a pilot this was bad.
The Flash: Death of the Speed Force (2020)
Sleep
I fell asleep three times watching this episode. I was unengaged and bored. The storyline since crisis is so poorly done. New writers are desperately needed.
Batwoman (2019)
No season 2 needed
The premise is good but the writing and character development is terrible. The best episode of the entire series was a crossover. This show needs to be canned.
