Squid Game: The Challenge (2023)
Terrible
It lacks the drama of the original. The games are a little different. It's very Americanized. It's basically Big Brother for $4.6 million. From what I've read elsewhere, it's supposed to be an actual reality competition. Really? That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. If they are acting, they're terrible actors. In the first series, they were all people deeply in debt and desperate. These are people that are going to go home at the end of the day without the cash. So what?
In the end, it's just dumb, like most "reality" television. They should never have named this Squid Games. It should be "I'm an Idiot"
Ghosts of the Void (2023)
stinks
It's just depressing. It doesn't even have the merit of wonderfully lit scenes. The story had promise but it's slow to start and doesn't get better. You find out a piece of the story here and there but it never comes together.
There is a lot of time spent building up the main characters but only a bit about how they wound up in their current situation.
Very little is known about the villains until a brief scene just near the end. There is a scene where she gets back at one of them but it's never mentioned again. We don't even know if one of the main characters lived or died. It's left to the viewer to figure it out.
It had a lot of promise but fell flat.
Speak No Evil (2022)
Very depressing. Do not watch if you are sad at all
While it was a poignant movie, it's the most depressing thing I've watched in a while.
The whole thing made me want to scream at the screen. The visiting couple have to be some of the dumbest, most naïve people in the entire world.
It keeps going and just gets darker and darker. While I understand the message they're trying to send about being too trusting, evil in the world, and all that stuff, It was still depressing and dark.
Don't look for a happy ending. Heck, the couple didn't even fight back. They just took it like wimps who just gave up their lives willingly. There was only one scene where they tried to fight back and they didn't do that with much gusto.

The House That Jack Built (2018)
What are you all seeing?
I saw a movie that was poorly acted, with a thin plot, and mediocre effects. There were very few moments when the main character connected a but, The rest was comically bad.
