Errementari (2017)
9/10
⭐⭐⭐⭐ AWESOME!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐
16 February 2023
I've had this movie in my list for over a year, but I'd never really felt compelled to watch it. Now I'm angry at myself for waiting so long!

I wish that I didn't have to continuously wade through the 90% of crap movies that Netflix puts out, in order to find the few gems that are actually there, but when I find a movie like this one, it makes the effort worth it!

If you like these types of movies, then I highly recommend that you watch this one!

If you usually pass on foreign language movies, and having to read subtitles, don't worry! This movie has an option for English audio.

I don't care if that makes me come across as less sophisticated than all of you professional critics who just love reading your own words, because if only one person reads this review and watches this movie, because I mentioned the English audio, then it was all worth it!

GREAT MOVIE! I WISH THAT THERE WERE MORE LIKE IT!

The Seventh Day (I) (2021)
5/10
38 minutes into the movie and I'm already so frustrated!
19 December 2022
Warning: Spoilers
He goes and sees the kid in the cell. The kid tells him everything about when it happened, where it happened, what the thing does when it crawls up onto his bed at night, and what it says to him.

BUT!!! When he comes out, he doesn't tell Guy Pierce any of that! He just says some skate place, Skate City maybe? WTF???

I hate when movies and TV shows do this. It happens all the time! They never completely communicate, they hold information back, and I don't know if it's going to have any effect on this movie, but it has certainly had a major impact on sooooooo many movies and TV shows that I've watched. This type of situation makes me hate the show from the get-go.

The Sandman (2022– )
10/10
10/10 My absolute favorite series this year! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
6 August 2022
If I could give this show a number higher than 10, I would!!

The Sandman has everything I love! It's fantastical, emotional, scary and it's strangely sweet.

I've only watched 6 episodes, so far, but I'm already sad, because it will only take me another day or so to finish the last 4, and then it will be over.

I've only ever written a few silly reviews for shows that I've really liked (or hated). I am in no way a prolific reviewer or an expert on TV or film. I am just a girl from Los Angeles, and I like what I like!

Episode 6 is what prompted me to write this review of The Sandman. I LOVE the show, and episodes 1 - 5 have me thoroughly hooked, but episode 6...

EPISODE 6 MOVED ME! It is the best episode so far, and I just can't imagine how they could top it! I won't say anymore, because I don't want to spoil it for anyone.

If you happen upon my review, please keep in mind that I am not knowledgeable (or full of myself) enough to dissect the show, and comment on the directing and acting, other than to say that I think it's all wonderful!

Night Sky (2022)
7/10
SOOOOOOOO SLOOOOOOOOOW!!
26 May 2022
I've FINALLY made it through all 8 episodes. It's a good show, but it was so frikkin slow that it was impossible to just sit still and watch it. So I watched it while I did the dishes, while I played on my phone, while I paid bills, etc... Every time I tried to just sit down and watch an episode, I found myself fast forwarding until something happened.

I just hope that the next season picks up the pace!

Interesting
13 May 2022
I just finished the fifth and final episode. The series was interesting, but you don't come away from it thinking, "Oh my God that was so good!". I think Hulu was smart to air the episodes the way that they did. Two on day one, and then one each day until the finale. If I had to come back each week to watch this series, I most likely would never have made it to the end.

Warning: Spoilers
I loved this little series, but I need to know what "The Plan" is! So please please please bring it back for one more season, at least! It didn't end with any sort of resolution. Please.

The Baby (2022)

I LOVE it!!
25 April 2022
Based on just this first episode, I absolutely love this show! Comedy/horror is my favorite genre, and this show is awesome!! A couple of jump-scares, not overdone at all. The lead actress is hilarious!! I can't wait for next week. They should have put out two or three episodes to start, but oh well!

The ending ruined the entire movie for me!!
25 April 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I was thoroughly enjoying the movie!! It was tense, it was fast-paced and I never got bored, but then the last 5 minutes just completely ruined it!! I mean WTF???

He had already done everything, and the worst had happened and his dad was dead and his brother was dead and then he has to kill that cop and now he has no money at all?? Everyone's dead, and he has nothing to show for it?? That was just effing idiotic.

Just watched E10 the season finale
10 April 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I feel totally ripped off!

Nothing unfolded, no answers were given...we don't know anything more than we did in episode 1.

Watching this has been a complete and utter waste of time. They expect me to come back for season 2?? No thank you!!!

If it's going to be anything like season 1, they will drag it out for 10 episodes and then what? They may or may not reveal something?? I am not getting sucked in again!

I quit.

I LOVED THIS MOVIE!!
2 April 2022
I don't watch foreign films. I am not a fan of subtitles, but I could not resist watching this movie due to the premise. I was not disappointed! I loved this movie so much, that 10 minutes in, I forgot that I was even reading subtitles!

God is a total jerk...

OMG this movie was great!! 😉

Brilliant!

As always, Tom Hardy was absolutely amazing! I felt like I was right there in the car with him, experiencing every emotion as if lit were my own! BRILLIANT!!!

The WORST acting EVER!!
9 November 2021
I am flabbergasted at how truly terrible the acting was in this movie. How could they have possibly watched their own movie and thought, "I am so proud of my performance!"???!!!??

Please don't waste your time on what can only be described as a high school project.

Ghosts (2021– )
7/10
Keep watching, the ghosts are hilarious!
15 October 2021
It may get annoying later, it's definitely a bit silly, but the ghosts are hilarious!

The husband's character is kind of fun, but the wife is edging towards irritating. If she doesn't seriously bring the "perky" down a few notches, this show will get annoying now, rather than later.

The ghosts are awesome, and they will be the reason that I continue watching (at least for as long as I can deal with Mrs Perky)!

I just finished episode 3, and I recommend that you watch the first 3 episodes before rendering an opinion. I wouldn't have made it this far, except that the ghosts seriously crack me up!

A Dark Song (2016)

8 up until the end
16 September 2021
Warning: Spoilers
The movie was great, original, I was really into it...but the end was such a disappointment. To go through all that, and then have that crap ending, is the reason I only gave it a 6.

Frightening!!
6 September 2021
I watch a lot of horror movies, and besides the jump-scares, they're rarely very scary. The first 3/4 of this movie, however, was so frightening that I had to watch it in two separate sittings!

I thought the actor who played the little boy was amazing! It was his fear that made me so afraid!!

I don't know why the rating is so low for this movie. I don't scare easily, but maybe watching it on consecutive nights, at 2 in the morning, had something to do with it! Who cares, it scared the crap out of me!!!

Great mafia/vamp movie!
5 September 2021
I wish there were more mafia/vampire movies. If you love mob movies, and you love vampire movies, then this is a must-see!

I loved the mafia angle, and seeing all of the familiar faces made it even more fun to watch!

It didn't feel like I was watching a thirty-year-old movie, except that all of the familiar faces were 30 years younger!

It was both funny and entertaining! I kind of loved it, but it's definitely not worth a second watch...

Even with severe ADHD, it held my attention to the end!
21 April 2021
I really liked it! I never make it past 45 minutes of any movie, before I turn it off and watch the rest the next day. I actually watched this one all of the way through in one sitting.

Makes me laugh, when there's nothing to laugh about in the world right now
5 February 2021
I know that it's a silly and superficial show, and definitely not the type of sitcom that I prefer to watch, but I laughed during every episode!!

TOO MANY SUBTITLES!!
25 January 2020
WHY?? Why does almost the entire movie have to be subtitled?? If I wanted to read, I'd read a book.

Season No More Dr. Sturgis!!!
14 January 2020
This is my absolute FAVORITE show, but I am sooooooo sick of Dr. Sturgis!! When he was committed to a psychiatric hospital, I thought (hoped) that he wasn't coming back. Unfortunately that isn't the case.

Season 3...TOO MUCH SINGING!!
17 December 2019
Warning: Spoilers
I very much enjoyed seasons 1 and 2, this show was a show that my dad and I watched and laughed with together. But Season 3... We have the remote in our hands ready to fast forward through the numerous full length songs, sung by "Shy Baldwin". The songs are long, dull, and take up so much time every episode, that you wonder if Midge and Susie are still in the show.
