Sitting In The Aisle: Bohemian Rhapsody



Bohemian Rhapsody 9/10

Theater Whore is now called Sitting In The Aisle. If you want a gritty, drug fueled, angst ridden, rated-R depiction of the life of Freddie Mercury then I suggest you watch one of many documentaries of the band online or read a book. Otherwise you can be like me and my friend and watch a really fun movie about the life of one of the greatest performers of my life called Bohemian Rhapsody. I did not expect to like this movie as much as I did. Seriously. I did not think that the star Rami Malek looked like Mercury and Cam reminded me of other films I liked based on real people where they looked absolutely nothing like them. And honestly over time I got used to Malek and just saw him as Mercury. I also knew that they would not be able to cover the amount of information in the lives of Mercury or any of the characters. That is what twelve part documentaries are for. Not a film.

The Review: Mr. Robot Season 1


Mr. Robot Season One 9/10

I first heard about this show after it won an award a show I watched got it. I don't even remember which show or what award. I just remember being shocked that Christian Slater was in a show that people were watching and won awards in this day. While ironing, which is where I discover most new shows that I watch, I stumbled across Mr. Robot on Amazon. I was like “Fine, I'll watch it!” but mostly because Brain Dead has not updated any new episodes after being on hiatus for a few weeks now. Seriously. Shows, especially new ones, need to cut that shit out. I knew by the end of the first episode of this that they had me hooked.
