Well done powerful adaptation of the popular novel by JD Vance,
featuring a stellar cast (including Glenn Close and Amy Adams),
artfully directed by the incomparable Ron Howard.
This potential Oscar masterpiece is a must see,
despite the critic naysayers. Judge for yourself!

bcreed08 2 points 3 years ago.

More likely to get a Razzie than an Oscar. Critics are crucifying this movie.

Oh Yvonny Yvonny Yvonny, only a few days ago i was hating your @ss for the atrocities you perpetrated in The Handmaid’s Tale but today I’m feeling bad you died a horrible death in this movie.

I’m a sucker for anything time travel. This movie was Entertaining and all but honestly they could have done better. So in the future they have the technology to create time travel but they couldn’t develop and manufacture better weapons to kill those aliens and the best they could do is still automatic assault riffles? Even in this day and age humanity still has better weapons how much more 28years in the future? Also you had the possibility to travel 30years into the past and the best plan they could come up with is to recruit those who were already dead in the future? Shouldn’t they have spent the 30years researching and developing better weapons?

This is the kind of movie if you think too hard it ruins the movie.

Vman -3 points 3 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

Not sure to say yes or no to this one. Maybe because I was expecting something else from it, on the lines of I Spit on Your Grave. It was therefore just ok for me, yet she was far too old to play the role she was. Easily in her 40s, defo not early 30s….V

The lead actress is actually 35.

But the average temperature in space is below -200 degrees Celsius.

Even if we forget about oxygen, how does she survive that cold?

I hated that whole scene.

bcreed08 2 points 2 years ago.

Yes space is very cold but losing heat in a vacuum is actually quite difficult. You’re more likely to die due to the pressure differences of your body and the vacuum you now are exposed to. Here’s an article explaining it in more detail. https://www.realclearscience.com/blog/2012/08/how-would-you-die-in-outer-space.html

No Ordinary Family (2010)
bcreed08 2 points 3 years ago.

Disney should shop this out to another network and let them reboot it. I could see it doing much better now rather than ten years ago. There a very few shows about a family of superheroes. Black Lightning and The Gifted are two recent examples but most shows are about a single superhero or an unrelated ensemble. Perhaps Showtime could pick it up and spice it up a bit.

Happy Valley (2014)
bcreed08 2 points 3 years ago*.

Great writing, but man its hard watching such depravity on full display by the criminals involved and such incompetence from the police force trying to solve the crimes going on.

Dark Phoenix (2019)
greyfur 0 points 5 years ago.

Some people liked it, some didn’t, when I say there was a lot of potential lost, that is not to say I didn’t like it,or think it sucked, just that so much more could have been done. Esp. with the girl, won’t say more here in case people reading have not seen it. Jackman did an awesome job as always!

The Green Knight (2021)
PZitsEZ 8 points 2 years ago.

I was really looking forward to this and I’m sorry, but it was terrible. I saw it in the theatres because I really did want this to be good. But I couldn’t wait for it to be over. It was not even a one time watch. It is abysmal. Waste your time if you like, but it is not worth it. Absolutely horrible. Tell me I’m wrong.

bcreed08 2 points 2 years ago.

I walked out of the theater because it was so bad.

I don’t understand all the negative reviews, I thought it was great!

bcreed08 2 points 3 years ago.

you should check out https://www.primewire.ag/movie/1339721-watch-peninsula its the sequel to Train to Busan. Its a much better film than this one.

My Cousin Vinney not the Wrestler and well That alone blows your theory away.

bcreed08 1 points 3 years ago.

Sorry but my argument is still just as accurate even with that oversight because My Cousin Vinny has an 86% Critic score on Rotten Tomatoes. Even though my remark about the winning the Oscar for the Wrestler was incorrect, she was Oscar nominated for the Wrestler, which supports my original thesis as well. So on both points you were wrong. Just accept it and move on, you’ll have a happier life or maybe you need to just go get a life :-p

Superman & Lois (2021) S1 E8
Cataclysmic 2 points 3 years ago*.

Not true, Jordan discovered his powers after moving to Smallville and it was Lois who quit the Daily Planet. I’m guessing Clark followed her lead and is doing his own thing for money. Jordan just was having problems with anxiety and being picked on by peers which helped decision to move along with Martha dying.

bcreed08 1 points 3 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

1) I never said they moved to Smallville because Jordan developed powers. I said they ‘stayed” in Smallville because of that. They went to Smallville because Clark’s mom died and they needed to figure out what to do with the farm. 2) Yes Lois quit the Daily Planet and then got a job at the local paper in Smallville, but Clark had been fired before they left Metropolis. 3) Ya Jordan having anxiety and being picked on might have contributed but the major reason was his new powers.

Songbird (2020)
etim 2 points 3 years ago.

Or maybe the possibility of it becoming a nonfiction scared the crap out of too many ppl.

bcreed08 1 points 3 years ago.

Def scared the crap out of me. Thank goodness we have vaccines coming out. Hopefully Covid 23 won’t be such a problem if it ever emerges.

Silent Night (2021)
AmOct12 -4 points 2 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

It’s not entertaining when kids cuss like that..makes the movie almost painful to watch!

bcreed08 1 points 2 years ago.

yep, didn’t even make it half way through.

Filthy Rich (2020)
bcreed08 1 points 3 years ago.

The New Zealand version is much better than this one. This looks like it will be canceled after one season.

The Split (2018)
bcreed08 1 points 3 years ago.

A really good drama that rarely gets mentioned

Supergirl (2015) S6 E1
ShinmenTakezo 2 points 3 years ago.

Yes, and now Warner has HBO Max. They keep Titans for HBO Max and send Stargirl to The CW, so we know what their priorities are anyway.

bcreed08 1 points 3 years ago.

Because Stargirl was always going to be on CW. Titans was created for the DC streaming app before HBOMax existed, so when they decided to scrap the DC streaming service they moved Titans over to HBOMax, their main streaming app. Its not rocket science, smh.

Mare of Easttown (2021) S1 E3
Alien 4 points 3 years ago.

Well, that was smart. She’s her own worst enemy.

bcreed08 1 points 3 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

That was incredibly stupid of her. She could have lost her job, been charged with several crimes, put all of her past convictions at risk, and lost custody of Drew.

Smother (2021)
Mikeonalpha 0 points 2 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

yes, now Finn knows the family secret - he will work with the women to make sure no one finds out - season 3 is filming now!

bcreed08 1 points 2 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

The Guards also now know the family secret because the sister, Grace, told her friend, Joe, the Guard. I understand her not wanting to keep a secret but by telling Joe she is also implicating herself in a criminal conspiracy to obstruct justice and would likely be an accomplice after the fact to murder. It was incredibly stupid to tell Joe. It will likely be the reason she can’t leave for London and will be in season 3. Its also a bit misguided because of what she knows of the killing it was done in self defense. What wasn’t done in self defense was Anna spiking Elaine’s drink and the resulting accident of that Joe had. I am surprised Grace didn’t spill her guts about that, which is arguably more pertinent to Joe.

Mare of Easttown (2021) S1 E3
LVPVS 2 points 3 years ago.

Yes, I am thinking the same. Way too early to give away the actual culprit so obviously. Then again, that’s what I thought all along “The Undoing” and in the end it WAS the obvious suspect from the get go. Major disappointment

bcreed08 1 points 3 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

Coincidently the “The Undoing” was based on the book “You Should Have Known” by Jean Hanff Korelitz. Seems like it was supposed to be that obvious all along, it usually isn’t in these types of series though.

The Slap (2015)

Horrible US version of a good Aussie series. The biggest issues being the casting and directing.

great classic 70s tv series , did the 70s predict our POSSIBLE future ?

i like the remake a bit better. it has the same name.

Superman & Lois (2021) S1 E8
doodikle 1 points 3 years ago.

He was there before based on the DC Arrowverse. I do not think it explained him leaving there.

bcreed08 1 points 3 years ago*. (Contains Spoilers)

Yes it did, on the pilot episode. They were going digital and downsizing the staff. Clark got fired.

Unforgiven (2009)
bcreed08 1 points 2 years ago.

The Unforgivable Netflix movie is an American copy of this movie. I prefer this one.

[deleted]
bcreed08 1 points 3 years ago*. (Contains Spoilers)

He doesn’t have any paid employment right now, Lois does. They came back to Smallville after Clark had been fired from the Daily Planet and his mom had passed away. They stayed because one of the kids, Jordan, was developing powers and this would be a better place to raise him.

Lie With Me (2021)
bcreed08 1 points 2 years ago*. (Contains Spoilers)

From the very beginning the story seemed a bit convoluted. What woman would hire an attractive, young, and single nanny to live with their family when the couple was already having problems with suspicions of infidelity? That makes very little sense to begin with but they double down on the absurdity by having the nanny be the one the husband was having an affair with in the prior country and the husband setting up a home office, smh.

Then instead of just setting up nanny cams to be able to provide concrete evidence of infidelity and drug use by the husband to a court in the divorce or custody hearing the wife decides murdering the husband is the better option. Not only that but she could have also gone to a hospital with the bruises and claimed abuse. But ya lets just murder the bloke instead and assume there is absolutely no cc footage on any of the streets on the way to the beach house that could catch the wife. Also hope the cops won’t notice that the fingerprints of the nanny aren’t on the GHB bottle nor the pool furniture, but she clearly didn’t have gloves on. Oh and tell the nanny that you thought they would assume it was an accident but you had planted the nanny’s bracelet at the murder scene, smh. So many plotholes and conveniences .

So they apparently couldn’t afford Byrd but somehow they could afford Judge Judy’s granddaughter who is one of the new women on the show. So shocking, smh. Textbook nepotism.

The Matrix (1999)
fessologue 2 points 2 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

Never get tired of the last scene with agent smith!
And to think all this happened five times before! Genius story!

bcreed08 1 points 2 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

I highly doubt what happened with Agent Smith happened in the previous versions, given what happens in the later films and how the Matrix responded.

Promised Land (2022)
jaybird31523 3 points 2 years ago.

Got to admit I was skeptical,but it’s got my girl Christina Ochoa in it so I gave it a shot. Very good storyline and flashbacks to explain the current tensions in the family..I gave it 4 stars

bcreed08 1 points 2 years ago.

True, the flashbacks help a lot. Given what they show and what’s happening in the present its hard to know who to root for. A lot of the characters are grey, rather than black or white, in terms of their ethics.

Smother (2021)
bcreed08 1 points 2 years ago.

Well if you are looking for a murder mystery, family drama this one is decent. Season 2 just finished and filming for season 3 has already begun.

Traces (2019) S2 E2
bcreed08 1 points 2 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

What a crap verdict. He had nothing but a flippant response about the boots. No reasonable person could ignore the boots. They had his dna inside, were hidden at his worksite, had the victims blood on them, and left a print at the burial spot of the victim. If they had someone else’s dna in the boots they would have said that in court, they clearly didn’t. They presented no other possible explanation for the blood getting on the boots, nor why they were hidden his worksite. He also lied about his alibi, and never seemed to present a different one that could be corroborated. Its like having the defendant confess in court and then still ruling he’s not guilty, smh.

The Cry (2018)
bcreed08 1 points 2 years ago.

A pretty solid murder mystery and overall drama. Lots of twists and turns that I wasn’t expecting. A bit long for the story but its worth checking out.

The Undoing (2020) S1 E4
Researcher 2 points 3 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

I can see the logic behind your reasoning. Especially since the blonde seemed to be a little too wise to hubby’s behavior. And dad sure has the means to get the job done but if his motive was to get rid of son-in-law, surely there would have been a simpler, less lethal way available to a man of his means.
The bludgeoning points to a crime of passion so hubby was right in opining that jealousy played a role here.
But I’m still seeing red herrings…money’s still on wifey with daddy beginning to wonder if it was her. He’ll definitely do anything to protect her…even sending an innocent man to the gallows!

bcreed08 1 points 3 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

I think the wife’s father would have done it to protect his daughter and her family, not to get rid of the son in law. The murder victim was obsessed with her.

Black Widow (2021)

High on the action and low on plot. Maybe it would make more sense if I had watched all the prior Marvel movies the but quality has been so poor lately.

The Tomorrow War (2021)
Laura-GCHQ 2 points 2 years ago*.

This is something that’s hard for me to do because when you use fiction to go outside the boundaries of what’s real and currently possible (such as time travel), then you enter into the realm of unprecedented options of endless possibilities, so you should atleast use those options wisely.
But you’re probably right. I’m thinking too much. I tend to do that alot LOL…

bcreed08 1 points 2 years ago.

You’re not alone. That’s why I didn’t like the movie at all. I just can’t go that braindead lol

That was amazing.. wasn’t what I was expecting at all. My girlfriend cried like 3 times. Amazon did a good thing.

Amazon only bought the movie. Paramount made it and sold it to Amazon.

The Returned (2015) S1 E5
bcreed08 1 points 2 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

They should retitle this episode “stupidity”. Terrible choices made by nearly all the characters, both the living and the returned. Probably the worst choice being the mother choosing to marry the cop that was secretly filming not only her bedroom but also the bedroom of her daughter. He’s definitely displayed enough sociopathic and abnormal tendencies to warrant a break up and possible restraining order. Definitely not saying she should stay with her “returned” fiance but staying with the psycho cop is not a good choice.

The Americans is also a great espionage show.

Continuum (2012) S1 E1
frauschnider 1 points 2 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

There are some serious problems; the plot is riddled with holes, the bad guys act outside of reason, and I can’t imagine censorship with bodycams and chips on each individual would not spot the pattern that lead to this conflict and even crazier, this time travel technology that they didn’t even know about. But on the other hand, the characters are intriguing, and in my mind that triumphs everything else.

bcreed08 1 points 2 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

There aren’t actually many holes yet, you just haven’t seen enough of the show to understand how things develop and what is revealed in later episodes about the past. There are definitely holes in later seasons but not yet.

bcreed08 1 points 3 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

Let me get this straight Jack has Kim working at CTU to keep her safe, the same place her mother was executed by a double agent. The same place agency that has had multiple double agents nearly every season. smh, c’mon Jack that place is a death trap.

agrees lame cop out ending that made no sense -he wouldnt have jumped if he had no empathy -he woulda felt no guilt so 0 chance of feeling guilty

bcreed08 1 points 3 years ago*. (Contains Spoilers)

He also wouldn’t have lied about his sisters death for decades if he was a sociopath. That originates from a sense of guilt.

what’s called a potboiler - utterly ridiculous, but cannot stop watching, can’t imagine how they can keep the story going for another season

Hey, here’s a thought…Nicole kidman is the Killer, cause she found out about the affair….I rest my case…!!!!

bcreed08 1 points 3 years ago.

its probably someone we haven’t even been introduced to yet. They do that all the time in these types of series. They wait to introduce the killer and their motives until the last few episodes, while the audience has been speculating the whole season over the people we had been introduced to in the beginning.

The Sounds (2020) S1 E6

The show wasn’t that great to begin with but this episode pretty much just ruins the show for me completely. Such a stupid direction they decided to go in.

Normal People (2020)

This great show is finding some major traction. Its now found its way onto Hulu. I wouldn’t be surprised if Netflix picked it up for some more seasons like they did with “You”, which originally aired on the Lifetime Network.
