The setting is so good. There is also so much cool technology and learning that you get just through osmosis. I mean, a 4-day decompression is absolutely crazy. I know that you need 2 10-minute hold sessions when you dive at 100 feet, but 4 days? Not only that, but I really want to see the math
This movie is only like an hour long because it was an HBO special feature at the beginning of draw down from Afghanistan. Kevin Bacon is outstanding in this and does a great job and honestly is the only real character.
This book is written much like Lord of the Flies, the Great Gatsby, and To Kill a Mockingbird, without the finality of story that you get from those books. There is a ton that is supported and lifted, but there is no finality that makes this worth while to read a second time.
When this movie first came out, I thought it was good, but not needed. Today, 9 years later, I feel the same way. However, the movie has aged very well, and I think it is better than the 6 or 7 that I would have given it years ago.
Jason Sudeikis and Hannah Waddingham are absolutely fantastic. Honestly, I think every single person really does an incredible job of growing into their roles. Between seasons there is some amazing character growth and I wish more shows and movies put this much effort into it.
I tried. I tried to watch this show and I just couldn't finish it. I have been watching this for a couple of years and the only way I kept moving forward was because I didn't want to watch the same show in a press as the TV was running in the background.
The comedy and drama have a pretty good balance. There are times however, where they have pushed the characters to just be at the limit of acceptable and mainly that is Missy. Actually the more I think about it, the more it feels like all main Young Sheldon cast are just being written out.
To everyone who has lost someone. To everyone who feels they should have taken someone's place. We thank you for the sacrifice of your loved ones and for you still being here, honoring that sacrifice. You are not forgotten or unwanted.
No sex, no language, limited graphic violence. Ok there are a couple scenes of someone sticking a hand inside Tony's chest so that is a bit outside my mom's preferences. My dad really enjoys this movie and Mom isn't completely apposed to it, so I am going to say approved by both.
The Book in 1 Sentence A book with no sense of what kind of book it wants to be where the consequences of individuals can all be forgiven thanks to technology. Brief Review Weird things are happening to vehicles and electronics in the Caribbean. While this is going on, a
Diego Luna should get an Emmy for this. For two seasons he has brought Cassian to live. Played a complicated and growing character that only got better as the show went on. He is also surround both others who bring the heat in their performances that you can't stop watching this show.
Michael Fassbender is at it again with a stellar performance taking most of the rest of the cast to school. That makes it sound like they did bad, they didn't, but Fassbender is just excellent. Cate Blanchett is also superb in her performance.

This was probably my least favorite movie in phase 1 and as I am watching 14 years later, it does a great job of holding up. The CGI looks good, the action is good, it isn't too cartoony, and the story is excellent. It still is a little slow.
Movies
These two though have some great scenes both together and on their own. They feel like brothers, they fight like brothers, and if I didn't know better, I'd say they grew up together in real life. This shows that while they might not have had banger after banger, they are outstanding actors.
Movies
Will and Martin are again outstanding in their comedy. I really like the return of Reggie as it is one of my favorite scenes from Bad Boys II where they make a scene when he picks up Martin's daughter.

This is very much your post Taken typical kidnapped person-of-interest movie. And that might be the most accurate and complete review that you'll ever see. The only real difference is the main star and the amount of Bull vs. Owl techniques. Jason just bulldozes his way in.
TV
Let me start by saying something slightly controversial. I have never been a big fan of Harrison Ford as I think he is overrated. However, this show puts him where he belongs for everyone else. He was funny, he was emotional, and he was believable. This honestly goes for the rest of the cast as well
Books
Annie Jacobsen does a great job, for the most part, of describing the work, science, and inventions that DARPA took part in as wars ravaged US service members. Where I think this book doesn't excel is the almost repetitive nature of the descriptions of science and people
Movies
This is basically scene for scene the same as Gladiator. Yes there are some differences, but the story is the same. Solider gets picked up as a gladiator and then has to lead other gladiators to fight against overwhelming odds. This means people look into his background...
TV
Speaking of the story, most of the episodes are stand alone with some small exceptions which allows you to jump in an out. Obviously, the paintball episodes are the best, but there are some really good episodes. Then there are episodes that are absolutely catastrophic.
Movies
A nice change from the first movie was by adding some additional interpersonal issues that add to the comedy. They never feel like a distraction which is good. Plus the bad guys in this have a nice life of their own. They are a little stereotypical 90s villains...
Movies
There isn't anything inventive about this. The story is pitiful, the action is limited, and the characters are poorly written. I saw a review that says this is supposed to be like Ex Machina. That is 100% my issue. Ex Machina was 1000% better in story, action, and acting. It is a poor knock off.
Movies
Can we start with the conversation about this cast being excellent and somehow critics hated it? People love it, as they should, but critics have lost their mind. Big monster fighting will always be a fun watch.
Movies
My favorite movie series throughout my entire life. There are ups and downs in the series, but I think overall it is 100% still something that needs to be watched. It is also something that pushed the industry forward. Just look how Star Wars was received in 77.
