The Review: Who Killed Sara? Season 2


Who Killed Sara Season Two DONE/10


I gave season one of Who Killed Sara? a MESSY/10 but if I had to give it a number score it would've been an 8/10. This one deserves a 1/10 in the most retroactive of ways. It is so rare that an entire season that is not bad but confusing as hell (much like the first one at times) can in the last thirty seconds ruin the previous two seasons as well as make me uninterested in the next one they threaten us with. I am legitimately having trouble trying to even explain everything that happened because they got super liberal with the use of flashbacks.

The Review: Mortal Kombat Legends Scorpion's Revenge


Mortal Kombat Legends Scorpion's Revenge 7/10


The other day while cruising around HBO Max and had recently watched the new Mortal Kombat and the old one (still awesome) and saw this Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion's Revenge movie and decided to check it out. I'm glad I did because this was pretty cool. Also, same with the latest MK movie the best parts were the ones involving Scorpion. We once again get to see his family slaughtered which is quickly becoming the new Bruce Wayne watching his parents get shot. He comes home with his son and notices that the city is too quiet. Next thing you know he is being chased by ninjas and after his son finds his mom dead Scorpion loses all of his shit! There is more violence in this scene than in all MK movies combined. He was slicing heads into threes! It was wild.

The Review: Married At First Sight Season 12


Married At First Sight Season Twelve Messy/10


So I have been watching a lot of reality TV lately. I have worked in it since 2010 so I tend to not spend my free time watching it. But since last year I have had all of the free time and L. got me into watching shows I wish I had sooner because they messy as fuck and I like watching messy. Participating? No. Watching from a safe distance and talking mad shit about strangers? Oh, for sure. This show Married At First Sight is in its 12th season and I've never watched any of them. I had heard of it but didn't even have the channels to check it out. MAFS is about some people who walk up the aisle, remove blind folds, see their new spouse, and get married. They have eight weeks to decide whether or not to stay married by the final episode. I should also point out that I didn't watch every episode so this is based on what I saw, read on Twitter, and from L. who watched like 95% of this season. I'm gonna break it down by couples and my feelings towards them while watching. I'll also give them a couples grade.

The Review: Jupiter's Legacy


Jupiter’s Legacy 0/10


Is this for real? I decided to watch the first episode of Jupiter’s Legacy on Netflix because I like the writer. After the first episode I am super okay with not finishing this. It is about a superhero family/team that is falling the fuck apart. The father has old fashioned views. The mom is a mom. The daughter is a fuck up. The son is trying to be like his dad but has a temper. The team fight a villain and the son ends up killing him but it’s a clone or something. I’m sure I can read about it later and find out. They released all the episodes at once. Just read what happens. I’m good on not finishing this. I don’t mind the bad special effects so much as the acting. Holy crap it was not good. Everyone spoke in exposition and there are flashbacks explaining the main heroes past. I don’t care. Not finishing this. You can’t be making shows this bad considering how great so many other ones are. And don’t get me started on the wigs. Jesus.

The Review: Invincible Season One


Invincible 1/10


I legitimately don’t get why people like this show so much. I watched the first episode (click here for that) and randomly finished the rest of this series. I wasn’t engaged with any of the characters and the story could have been an 80 minute movie. The story of a new hero whose father is obviously a bad guy and his mother who is in denial about the whole thing. It was just violent for no reason with one note characters. I thought the animation would get better as the show continued but it didn’t. I know that this has already been greenlit for two more seasons but I will for sure be missing it. I watched some reviews praising this series and I was confused by them. I just disagree with everyone saying that this series was good.

The Review: Made For Love Season One


Made For Love 8/10


I ended up finishing this show weeks ago and got wrapped up in watching a bunch of other shows so this review is late as hell. The basic premise is a woman leaves her marriage due to the fact that her husband is a controlling lunatic genius that implanted a device in her head so that he can see and hear everything she is doing under the guise of love and being closer. This device is supposed to be so that couples can be more open with each other.

The Review: Falcon And The Winter Soldier S1E5-E6


Falcon And The Winter Soldier 9/10


I finished watching this series a few weeks ago but have been so wrapped up in other things like podcasts (click here for those) and other blogs like Cam and I's Chocket Awards (click here for that). This is gonna be short by the way. I just need to knock a bunch of blogs out for my own record keeping right now. This series should not have been as good as it was. Not that Bucky and Falcon weren't cool or whatever in the films, its just that I didn't expect to like this show as much as I did. This show managed to take side characters and make them main players. Introduce new villains and heroes and something in between for future films. Its pretty damn incredible when you think about it. I am also a spoiled little bitch because this was just six episodes and as soon as it ended I wanted to watch a new Marvel show. I am starved for the shit since I wasn't able to get to the theaters last year. I am excited that so far there have been two incredible series featuring characters with not too much screen time.

The Review: Thunder Force


Thunder Force 6/10


Why did I laugh so much at this movie? I didn't know Thunder Force even existed but L. and I tried that weird Pick For Me option on Netflix and landed on this on the third try. It might have had to do with the fact that we had recently watched a trash ass movie on Amazon. This is about how some cosmic rays ended up giving people with a tendency towards being a sociopath end up getting superpowers. This young, smart girl named Emily whose parents were killed by one of these super-powered beings called Miscreants vows to one day find a way to defeat them. She meets a girl named Lydia who sticks up for her in school and they become friends. Later as they grow up they split since Lydia plays too goddamn much and Emily is focused on studying.

The Review: Without Remorse


Without Remorse 1/10

This movie was terrible. L. and I watched this movie called Without Remorse. It is based off of a book I didn't read which is likely for the better since I cant stop comparing the two when it happens. This movie seemed like something that would've come out in the 80's with either a massive star or as a B-movie. This is a big budget looking movie with a wafer thin plot. A dude does a mission. The mission is shady. Some of his team members get killed. His wife and unborn child get killed. He goes for revenge in the sloppiest ways possible only to get rescued by what could be called acts of god. He was used to hopefully start another Cold War or some shit. It was dumb. At the end of this nonsense they threaten to turn this into a franchise. Please don't. It is a waste of a lot of talented actors and actresses. I'm sure it was fun to film and learn some cool shit. But as a viewer not once did I have fun with this.

The Review: The New Mutants


The New Mutants 2/10


This movie was dumb. Now, I had heard about this years ago and complained about them holding it back from release forever until releasing it while the world is dealing with a pandemic. I had heard reviews about The New Mutants and none made it sound good. Fans of the comics said it was confusing. I can attest to that fact. This movie was baffling on so many levels. It starts with Dani being woken by her father because something is attacking her reservation. She gets chased, knocked out, and wakes up tied to a bed at a hospital that is obviously not really a hospital. Dr. Reyes (who as far I know from the comics was a good lady) tells her everyone is dead and that she has powers and needs to learn how to control them. What are her powers? Not quite sure.

The Review: Mortal Kombat (2021)


Mortal Kombat 6/10


Full of spoilers. This was a fun-ish movie. Let me just get that out of the way first. The biggest problem I have with it is this weird thing that is going on in a lot of movies where the main character has no personality. They are just a tool to keep the movie going. Also, the fact that I would have 100% rather have seen the story that began this movie instead of anything after. It begins in Japan hundreds of years ago with Hanzo (aka Scorpion) living a nice ass life with his wife and children. He goes to get some water when Bi-Han (Sub-Zero) assassinates them. Hanzo comes home and starts slicing ninjas to death in a very cool scene. He sees his family frozen in ice and has a cool fight with Sub-Zero who ends up slicing him up and leaves. Hanzo crawls towards his house hearing his baby crying (mama hid her under the house) before dying. Raiden shows up and takes the child away.

The Review: Who Killed Sara?


Who Killed Sara? MESSY/10


Full of spoilers. I watched this a week ago and the Wiki page for this series Who Killed Sara? on Netflix has no episode breakdowns so I am gonna go based on what I remember about ten episodes of a show in Spanish that is fucking crazy. This is about a guy named Alex whose sister Sara gets killed during a boat trip after she falls from a parachute that looks to have had the rope and harness cut. Each episode introduces more suspects so do not waste your time trying to play detective because you will be consistently wrong every 40 minutes of this.

The Review: Made For Love S1E1


"User One"


L. and I started watching this new series Made For Love on HBO Max the other day. It was insane. There are six episodes out right now but we checked out the first two which was very easy considering they are less than half an hour long which made me cheer inside. This is about a woman named Hazel Green-Gogol who seems to have a perfect life with her tech husband Byron Gogol. Everything is monitored. The love in a place called The Hub where even the sky is fake. She chills poolside reading magazines while a dolphin swims laps in the pool. Her orgasms are even monitored and she is required to rate them and make suggestions. Its fucking weird. The show goes back and forth through time showing some aspects of her childhood and parts of her and Byron's relationship. At a gathering for shareholders and such Byron announces that he has a new product called Made For Love where you and someone else will see, hear, feel, and know everything about one another at all times. Its a camera and recording device for a human. Also a GPS. Its creepy. This begins with Hazel coming out of a hatch in the middle of a desert and giving the finger to her home and hitching a ride.

The Review: Falcon And The Winter Soldier S1E2-E4



The Star-Spangled Man”


My late ass. I haven't stopped watching this show, I just haven't been writing about it. I have also been watching other shows. On this episode The new Cap aka Walker is interviewed and they talk about what a great soldier he was. I don't care. I don't like him. He got obvious anger issues of some kind that are gonna show up. The Flag Smashers and their leader this super soldier woman named Karli are stealing some medicine when Bucky and Falcon show up to stop them. Suddenly Walker (I ain't calling him Captain America) and his partner Lemar show up and shit gets out of hand. The bad guys get away and Walker wants Bucky and Sam to work with him. They want none of his shit. Bucky knows someone they should talk to so he and Sam head there and meet this old man named Isaiah. Turns out he was tested on for the super soldier program and they put him in prison for thirty years and used his blood.

The Review: Godzilla Vs. Kong



Godzilla Vs. Kong 1/10


Full of spoilers and I don't care. This movie was trash. Its not like I expected an award winning movie or anything. I just wanted to see Godzilla and King Kong just beat the shit out of each other for ninety minutes. I knew that they would have to have stupid human stories thrown in just like with previous films but, damn. The humans in this were worthless. I liked the first Godzilla movie back in 2014 and thought the 2020 version (click here for that) was absolute garbage. I didn't see that latest Kong film even though I have had many chances to. I just don't care for Kong like that. So I ended up watching this in two parts because I was ready to quit watching it after just a little over half an hour.
