Godless (2017)
Well developed western
Quite a good movie which hits all of the buttons for a classic western.! The violence was a little high and very realistic, which is my only real problem with it. Interesting to note that the reviewers who didn't like it had a problem with the inter-racial relationship as well as the lesbian relationship. I thought that these brought a note of realism to it, as these relationships have been going on forever, but social mores kept them from being portrayed in the past. The cinematography was excellent and I found myself just looking at the scenery in some spots instead of following the plot. The casting of little known, but excellent actors, topped off the film, and Michelle Dockery sure is a natural beauty.!
Pure Genius (2016)
Not long for this world
Everything about this show is complete nonsense from both the scientific point of view as well as the medical. The acting is horrible and goes from corny to over the top. In one episode they are "reprogramming" a persons brain by having a nurse holding a fiber optic cable about three inches above a clay model which they have on top of a guys head pretending to be the guys brain! They install a pacemaker in a guys hospital room without any surgical equipment or aid of any scanners, and do it in 15 seconds. Some of the effects are good but overall completely unbelievable. The actors seem like they are reading the instructions for each procedure and none of them is believable as a Doctor. The head guy comes across a a complete idiot who just wants to use his wiz bang tools and has no medical knowledge.
