Westworld (2016)
S1 - perfect S2+ drops off big time
The first season was a 10/10 with great script, costume, set design, acting, etc.
Multiple times where the story took a crazy unpredictable turn but still managed to be plausible. Furthermore, it's unique Sci-fi setting gave it a special selling point of an area of Sci-fi relatively over told (that being AI) in cinema but presented in a different way.
However S2 and beyond became rather mundane, predictable and felt a bit samey. Basically it lost all its unique qualities. Which is such a shame because even though it didn't nose dive like the final seasons of GOT it died a slow death of boring writing.
Oh well, it was good while it lasted.
Don't Look Up (2021)
Very political! Very funny!
Don't take this movie too seriously!
Has a lot of very obvious references to modern politics, in particular American politics. However, this movies also has a couple of less obvious political references/allegories.
For some reason this movie has had a lot of bad reviews, but I don't understand them. It isn't meant to be anything Oscar winning, but certainly has some very good acting and some very funny scenes.
Also one last thing, the score for this movies I actually found to be really good. I feel like it's gone very overlooked but if you listen it's actually quite impactful and I think fits the movie very well.
At the end of the day, it's a comedy, a very good comedy.
Peaky Blinders (2013)
1st season brilliant, after that, it's scum
The first season was really amazing, good character development and brilliant acting, after the 1st season went off and sucked balls.
Lucifer (2016)
First 2-3 episodes were a Shambles.
The rest was good old brilliant lucifer however the first 3, especially first 2 episodes were shocking. Rubbish dialogue making the actors and characters look weak. Story wasn't picking up, lucifer just didn't feel himself.
After the 3rd episode the story picked up and lucifer was funny and far more himself. Loved it.
Lucifer: Family Dinner (2021)
Decent however...
Lucifer has always had a bit of cringe and cheese but this does seem to be getting a bit much. I am writing this while only having watched one episode but if it continues this could be the last season of lucifer for sure.

London Fields (2018)
Rubbish
Would never watch this movie again, I know it is sad but the only reason I watched this movie was to write a bad review, I know it was going to be terrible, but I just want to throw shade at amber heard for absolutely anything I can. #JusticeforJohnny
Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones (2002)
Ian McDirmid and Sir. Christopher Lee save this movie
This movie is not the best, and has very cringe worthy moments along with its fair share of bad dialogue and acting.
However Sir. Christopher Lee (God rest his soul) put on such a performance that you just want a mini series on Count Dooku. Sadly that can never happen.
Ian McDirmid also makes this movie worth watching as you can really see the evil dark lord of the sith manipulative as ever shine through with some amazing dialogue.
Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald (2018)
Amazing movie, takes a couple watches to get it.
First impressions of this movie when it came out in theatres weren't great but the more I rewatched it and the more I realised the direction of this franchise, I could really get a feel and a massive amount of excitement from the story and plot of these insanely I depth characters!!
IMDb Originals: Remembering Chadwick Boseman (2020)
REST IN PEACE YOU BEAUTIFUL PERSON! You will be forever missed

Rogue One (2016)
This is what Star Wars should have been!
This Star Wars movie was a surprise to be sure but a welcome one. It had everything a good Star Wars movie needs; good characters, good story and good acting. That is all the sequel trilogy needed sadly we did not get that. However we did get this in rogue one, an amazing edition to the legendary film franchise.
Official Secrets (2019)
Brilliant compelling true story
I wasn't expecting much from this film but by the end I was more than pleasantly surprised at the outcome of this movie. Each actor gave a wonderful performance on top of this amazing story. Definitely a great watch.
Schindler's List (1993)
Cinematic achievement
A inspiring story which is sadly but amazingly true. The performances given by the actors in this film are inspiring in its self.
21 Bridges (2019)
Predictable but enjoyable
21 bridges is a cop thriller with very predictable twists and turns, but nonetheless has a good script and good acting. Though I found myself Wanting the villains to escape and win towards the end as I thought they had a more exciting and interesting story. But that's just me.
Star Wars Rebels (2014)
Weird animations and weird dialogue
This series was mostly disappointing and boring the only thing I looked forward to when watching rebels was the cameos from the clone wars tv show and big cameos like Ashoka, Vader and obi wan. And while Darth maul and Ashoka was quite nice to see ultimately the only reason I even watched rebels in the first place was to see how obi wan died and the fight between Vader and Ashoka, and a few cool action sequences with maul.
The Negotiator (1998)
HELLO THERE
The only reason I watched it was because of the title, Star Wars fans know. But anyway it was a pretty decent film nothing to rave about but a good watch
Me Before You (2016)
Absolutely amazing love story
Emilia Clarke's performance is brilliant and the chemistry on set is one of a kind. I came in expecting not much but after watching it I am amazed how romantic and beautiful this movie is.
Suicide Squad (2016)
I didn't even think it was that bad 😂
A big disappointment but I think people might be going a tiny bit two harsh I mean it had a great cast no plot but it did however have some decent CGI fight scenes which I thought were entertaining enough but that's just my opinion. But it's still not that great of a movie but I think it's watchable!
Joker (2019)
Cinematically masterpiece it's a must see!!!
Absolutely phenomenal acting in this movie!!!!! Although this movie can come across as depressing it's main affect on most people is the craving for more, people including myself leave this movie completely stunned and wanting more!!
