So, I have enjoyed every "Intrepid Heroes" season of @dimension20.dropout.tv, but #CityCouncilOfDarkness is definitely the one that struggled the most with its system. Their style of play, story, and hard leans into comedic bits seems at odds with Masquerade's style and intentions. 3/5 🧛🏻‍♂️

Honestly, #Descendent is an interesting film that feels like it wanted to make some sort of statement on fatherhood, masculinity, trauma, etc., but ultimately fell a bit short in its delivery. Good flick but mostly unfulfilled potential. Great cast though. 3/5 👨‍🍼

A reimagining/historical revision of an infamous figure, #OldHenry tells an alternate tale about what could have been concerning the famous outlaw, Billy the Kid. While there is a great shoot-out scene, the movie is more of a showcase of stellar talents just acting. 4/5 🪦

In what will probably be an unpopular opinion, the final season of #TheBear was just fine. Better than the past few seasons but nowhere near as good as how it started. Not a fan of the forced tension, obstacles of a "last" night of service, but went out on its own flawed terms. 3/5 🥫

While #StarWarsMaulShadowLord is a great series, it is also indicative of the problems with Star Wars and its fanbase. No amount of stellar animation, voice acting, well choreographed fights, etc. will make up for the unwillingness to move past certain characters or eras. 4/5 ⚔️

It is genuinely hilarious how poorly written these shows are. Like, half the cast on #DuttonRanch is obviously phoning in their performances & there just for a paycheck. The only questionable part's how are these shows profitable with such short seasons & inflated budgets. 2/5 🐂

WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrats begin withdrawing endorsements of Graham Platner after Maine Senate candidate faces sexual assault allegation.

Hey, real quick: all you fucking white asshats who were gargling Platner's ballsack while ignoring the scores of Black & Brown people warning you about the guy NEED TO SHUT THE FUCK UP RIGHT NOW. JUST SHUT UP. IN FACT, YOU SHOULD ALL GET OUT OF POLITICAL PUNDINTRY POINT BLANK!

While there was nothing technically wrong with the spy thriller, #HUMINT on @netflix.com, it is also kind of bland and boring as far as the story goes. One would think a narrative about competing spies investigating a human trafficking ring would be a hit, but alas. 3/5 🕵️‍♂️

Well, #EnolaHolmes3 is certainly a movie, I guess. Look, I'm not going to spend time tearing into what amounts to poorly written and produced fanfiction that exists seemingly as a money funneling/laundering operation. People got paid; that was the sole intention. 1.5/5 👰‍♀️

Honestly, #NotSuitableForWork is just fine. It is an utterly inoffensive comedy that follows the standard blueprint of a friend group style sitcom simply intended for Gen Z. The problem is that it is only nine episodes long, so everything feels rushed and underdeveloped. 2.5/5 🦪

I was aware of the existence of #HedwigAndTheAngryInch but had never seen it before. An engaging musical about struggle, perseverance, and finding acceptance, particularly for one's self, the movie feels both relevant and outdated while being utterly entertaining. 4/5 🦲

I am genuinely at a loss as to who the intended audience of this film is supposed to be. I can see what films #ForbiddenFruits is trying to emulate, but the characters are too one dimensional, the story is absurd without being amusing, and end is mean without catharsis. 1.5/5 🎃🍎

It is unfortunate that the current media environment no longer allows for major theatrical releases of movies like #VoicemailsForIsabelle because Zoey Deutsh would be one of the biggest stars. She owns this genre & her performance here just further cements that. Plus, a nuanced story to boot. 4/5 📱

A bit muddled for her solo outing, #Supergirl is still an enjoyable, entertaining superhero flick. Milly Alcock shines & shows great promise for the character. I imagine we'll see Momoa's Lobo again as well. Some editing & pacing issues, but overall a fun film. 3.5/5 🐕

Honestly, the Korean comedy, #TeachYouALesson kind of confirms that "boomer mentality" is not just an American problem. Because while the show does highlight serious modern day issues with education & society, it is seemingly from the perspective of an old man yelling at kids on the street. 2.5/5 👨🏻‍🏫

While kind of a bland crime thriller comedy, oddly enough, #Pixie showcases Olivia Cooke's talents far more than virtually anything in House of the Dragon. The core trio have great chemistry, and the supporting cast is solid. Just seems like nothing is really developed in this film. 3/5 ⛪️

Honestly, not sure what to make of #HusbandsInAction on @netflix.com. It is an entertaining action comedy about a blended family with an ex and current husband having to work together to save their (ex/current) wife. Yet, it also seems to be lacking something in its presentation. 3/5 🧑🏻‍🤝‍🧑🏻

Got to see #Autonomous, a new horror vertical "series" on the Screamify app. From the same team that made ZombieCon Vol. 1, it is a solid horror short that is formatted for vertical phone viewing in both dimensions & length breaks. Has potential but possibility is unclear atm. 3/5 🚗

While I understand this was obviously an indie film with limited resources, #ThisIsNotATest was still a middling movie that could not find a consistent theme, purpose, or message in its narrative. Came off as a too long proof of concept than a fully thought out film. Not even de ent kills. 1.5/5 🧟‍♂️

I was genuinely surprised by #TheEvilLawyer, a Thai criminal drama series on @netflix.com. The story revolved around a lawyer using legal/unethical methods to save her innocent client who is embroiled in a major conspiracy, but the twist ending is what really stood out. 4/5 👩‍💼

While I can understand why it was cancelled, still disappointed that we only got 1 season of #TheBoroughs. The @netflix.com sci-fi series had potential & starred a demo that doesn't get a lot of screentime these days. Some real talent too. Wonder what the greater mystery could've been. 3.5/5 📺

Made this last week at a group meet up. Also donated one to be raffled off. Seemed to be a hit. #Lego

While hardly anything new or novel, #WokOfLove is a breezy, enjoyable Korean romantic comedy/drama. Some elements and plots are a bit long and unnecessarily extended. Others are barely developed. Still, it is entertaining enough with believable chemistry. 3/5 🍜

🚨 The season finale of Um, Actually is out now on @dropout.tv! Featuring host Ify Nwadiwe, fact-checker Brian David Gilbert, and guests: Amy Dallen, Erika Ishii, and Matt Mercer!

🚨BREAKING: Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) got a tough lesson Wednesday just hours before the state legislature was supposed to convene for a redistricting special session he called: Life comes at you fast. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Watched #BeforeIDisappear few weeks back, and it still stuck with me. Very much an indie film with a ridiculously talented supporting cast, the movie is an oddball journey into the utter mess life can be and the significance of showing up and taking advantage of second chances. 4/5 🥡

Man, #TheLegendOfVoxMachina is reminding me how much of an asshole Scanlan was, and how much both the campaign and series tries to make him sympathetic, but it doesn't really work.

I am curious how accurate the British comedy/parody, #CoffeeWars, truly is. Obviously, it is hyperbolized, but the best satire has some grounding in truth. Still the take on baristas, coffee, & coffee culture, with a side look at veganism, was pretty funny & engaging. 3.5/5 ☕️

Somehow Nicolas Cage's whole shtick works really well for #SpiderNoir. Available in B&W or Technicolor, the series has all the trademarks of a classic noir set in an alternate Spider-Man universe. Add a great supporting cast, some decent effects, & you got a solid series. 4/5 🕷

The return of "Terror" anthology series with #DevilInSilver, changes the formula by adapting a work of fiction instead of a historical event. The series still offers social critiques/exploration of themes like race & power but the lack of real world events does hinder it comparatively. 3/5 🏥

Bella Thorne could act, right? Because not seeing much in anyone's performances in #FindYourFriends on @shudder.com. What should've been a visceral, satisfying revenge thriller ends up being a mess of idiotic choices by dumber characters that takes too long to get anywhere. 1/5 🏜

Finally watched #Obsession, and, yeah, it was a solid movie. Nowhere near the "next coming of horror" that many were suggesting. Inde is the standout, obviously, and the film makes great use of its limited resources. Still, a pretty standard horror flick at the end of the day. 3.5/5 🐈‍⬛️

Honestly, #NationalAnthem is a different kind of queer film but no less important. While real world prejudice & tragedies are alluded to, the movie's conflict & drama arise more from the realization that finding community, identity, & acceptance is only the first step on your journey. 4.5/5 🐎

The Ambriz Brothers explain how Guillermo del Toro became a mentor on their stop-motion film ‘I AM FRANKELDA’. “We contacted him 20 years ago when we were just students. We emailed an account he made for fans, and he answered back... now he helped us a lot to find distribution.”

The second season of the British crime drama, #CriminalRecord, has officers Lenker & Hegarty working together to stop a domestic terrorist threat. Of course, the opposing officers still have different ways of doing things but must find common ground to save the day. 3.5/5 👮🏾‍♀️👮🏼‍♂️

As I have previously stated, there really is a whole another world out there. #WongAndWinchester is a six episode Canadian cop dramedy that just came and went. Pretty standard fare for the genre just with some added diversity and some minor pseudo critiques of police. 3/5 🕵️‍♀️🕵🏼‍♀️

Even though it was only 7 years ago, #WhiskeyCavalier, on Tubi feels like a completely different generation of television. While it boasted a great cast with delightful chemistry, it was simply not different or intriguing enough to move past a first season. What could have been... 3.5/5 🥃

Welp, #Whistle surely is a movie. I don't know what this movie was going for, but it is a mess. It's own internal logic doesn't make any sense. The kills are just okay. Attempts at atmosphere and sense of dread/terror are laughable. Overall, a solid cast in a shit movie. 2/5 💀

There is nothing new or particularly interesting about #OfficeRomance. It is basically every rom-com cliché put into a film, and like most others, it lives or dies by its cast and their chemistry, and this one works for me. Gilpin is the standout. Everything else is solid. 3.5/5 🛫

The ‘AMONG US’ animated series has just been surprise released on Paramount+

Honestly, not much to say about #SoldOutOnYou currently available on @netflix.com . It is really the typical K-Drama romance series. Virtually every trope is present. Conflicts are resolved without issue. Bad guys are punished. The deserving get their happy ending. Roll credits. 3/5🧴

Was fortunate enough to catch the #Hadestown touring group. It's the most professional musical I have attended, & it was sensational. The music & performances were breathtaking. There were some, perhaps, unintentional additions to the play's themes but enjoyable still. 4.5/5 🌹

So, I am only surprised by the cancelation of #TheHuntingParty by NBC because of how much was obviously spent on it. The set pieces and action sequences could not have been cheap. Then add the level of guest star in each episode, and maybe it just got too expensive. 3/5 👩🏼‍✈️

Although #RJDecker is a pretty standard police procedural with nothing particularly new or novel, it already has been greenlit for a second season. As I've said before, these are the kinds of shows that television was built off of even if they are sort of bland. 2.5/5 🕵️‍♂️

It's been a few months since #Bait premiered on @primevideo.bsky.social, and there really doesn't seem to be much conversation or hype around it. Which is disappointing since the show was genuinely funny & heartwarming with its exploration of identity, community, & what success mean. 4/5 🤵🏿

While I cannot state how accurate the SW on OF storylines are, #MargosGotMoneyTroubles on Apple TV does boast an impressive cast, some solid performances, genuinely funny dialogue and plots, and an engaging narrative with the promise of more to come. 4/5 👽

I had been seeing quite a bit of hype concerning this movie, even getting the "thumbs up" from a prominent comic book writer, so it was shocking to find #RedSonja on Tubi of all places. Didn't even see that it had released/premiered. After watching it, makes far more sense. 2/5 👩🏻‍🦰🗡

Proof that you can have a solid, satisfying conclusion to a beloved series if you have experienced writers who have a specific story and arc they want to present. #Hacks was a hilarious, engaging comedy that somehow started off great and improved with each season. Earned every accolade too. 5/5 🎤

Didn't expect much from #Marshals but it is still surprising seeing the easiest and most popular type of television show. Somehow everything and nothing happens on this series with some of the lamest dialogue and performances put to screen. 2/5 🏇
