The Expanse (2015)
Reviewing in hopes of a season 7 pickup
This was one of the greatest sci-fi stories told on any screen. It's not just the plot but the characters. They're all so believable and relatable. Across the entire series major plotlines affect every member of the cast and each grows in their own way. In the world of the Expanse... everyone has a job, they're all good at it because the goofs die in space. Please, anyone pick this series back up and finish the story. Beltalowda!
Jungle Cruise (2021)
Exactly what you expect
Same old stuff, CG. Meh. It's a blend of all the action movies.
Cruella (2021)
Holy Boring Batman
Even my daughter was bored to tears. The wife tortured us with this drab movie. The kids literally asked to go to bed during it.... at 7 pm. You can't make this up.
Legends of Oz: Dorothy's Return (2013)
So bad it's good.
This movie is a beautiful atrocity. So horrific it wraps around the whole universes back to good.
The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking (1988)
Pipi is a demon of chaos
Someone loosed an ancient redheaded demon named Pipi Longstocking. Her powers come from her ginger mane. She has super strength, flight, teleportation and illusion. If Pipi comes to your town RUN. CHAOS IS HERE!
Bobbleheads: The Movie (2020)
It's an animated movie
Any other semblance of coherence is lost. Dialogue is muddy, plot non-existent and the CG is at least 15 years out of date. Also having the characters "bobble" while talking makes me nauseous. This concept should have been thrown out immediately. My kid made me watch it . Great kids movie has layers of plot and something for the adults to laugh at. No layers here. No laughs. Just pain and this review. Avoid.
Star Trek: Picard (2020)
The kids can't watch it
So it's not star trek to me. Sorry. Eye gouging, dismemberment, cursing, beheading.... not for me and the family can't watch it. Well stick to TNG
Trolls World Tour (2020)
Decent
The ending crash lands but otherwise it's okay. It got a few genuine laughs out of me and the kiddo likes it. Visuals are A+. Love the yarn lands.
Event Horizon (1997)
Solid 9
The sets are GREAT. the acting is genuine and visuals horrifying. Only the bad 90's CG holds the movie back from being a classic. This movie is worthy of a remaster.
Frozen II (2019)
Decent sequal
I liked the idea of the expanded mythology but they tread the same old paths: 4 Elements, nature vs civilization, Elsa wanders off alone again and gets in trouble. They could have taken some narrative risks and really delivered a classic. My daughter liked it and that's really the audiance. Not enough to keep the adults engaged though.
The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance (2019)
Excellent
I have seen my childhood expanded in a wonderful way! The puppetry is top notch and the CG compliments the handcrafted sets. After all the abuse 80's franchises take this is a breath of fresh air.
The Orville: Identity, Part II (2019)
BOOM!!!
That was everything you wanted in a conclusion. The action got cranked up to 11 but with meaning and purpose. Isaac's plot was believable, the stakes were high and seriously they've been setting this up for a season and a half.
The Orville: A Happy Refrain (2019)
OMG
This might be the best SciFi ever on TV and this episode is proof.
The Orville (2017)
Worthy of Star Trek comparison.
Beats the heck out of Voyager. It's all the seriousness and morals mixed with the dumb jokes you yell at the TV anyway.
