Violent Night (2022)
This movie could only be so good. And it was!
Look no one is coming here to be intellectually challenged and Action Santa flics isn't exactly an oscar-batting genre. That being said this movie hit 100% of its potential. It surpassed the restrictions of the genre and made it a little deeper. I went in expected some solid action and that was it. The cast all over performed. It's not Shawshank redemption nor could it ever be but it was the absolute best movie it could have been. The best part of the movie was the score. Dominic Lewis delivered a master piece of emotion all while keep the music within holiday theme. I'm not sure if there will be a sequel but if there is I'll be in the front row.
Mindhunter (2017)
Compelling Concept Poor Execution
The first few episodes are great. I was quickly sucked in and binged the first half of the season. From there on out the show felt like a pot of water that was very hot just not quite boiling. I kept waiting for that boiling point to come. I would watch each episode wonder if it would be the one to tip but was disappointed. I kept wondering if that moment would come and had it not been for what I felt were a great last 10 minutes of the last episode this review would be a 5. I do feel like the last episode made some of the flaws that I had seen in the show intentional not poor just bad planning.
The concept is incredible but is undone by a set of cliche characters that are weaker than a dial up internet connection.
