Video Game
Most of the characters are really well done. Blackwell's story is so good, and I really like his character. He, Solas, Cassandra, and Varric are outstanding characters. The story is my favorite of the series so far. Mainly there is a constant looming threat that sets up Veilguard so well.
Video Game
I hate this story though. Verric is being interrogated and is telling the story of the Champion of Kirkwall to someone from the Chantry. That's fine. However, there are 3 acts with 3 different bad guys and the first act and third act are barely tangentially tied together.
Video Game
The fighting in this game is probably the most fun I've had in a Dragon Age game, but it very quickly becomes repetitive. Not so much that you stop enjoying it, but it can be during the middle of the game. The overall story is what kept me involved even frustrated with how mission worked.
Movies
What hurts the Gladiator continuation is this weird world we live in where they keep asking Russell Crowe to do accents. This wasn't any better than him doing a "Greek" accent in Thor Love and Thunder. I don't like him in this movie, he feels like an actor playing rather than an actual Russian
TV
It isn't bad, but it isn't good for adults only. Jude Law does a decent job of play the Dred Pirate Roberts, sorry that is Princess Bride. One-eyed Willy? No, that is The Goonies. Well whatever his name is, Jod or so he says, but I always feel like he was holding back.
TV
My biggest cheers for this are Eddie Redmayne and his language skills and the gun fights. I know that he is just memorizing lines, but he had a decent accent that even my half-deaf ears could hear. The gun fights didn't have a prolonged engagement and all felt very realistic. This is
TV
This is an animated TV show and while I know that in the millennial and beyond generations, those are becoming more popular, I have a hard time paying attention to them. However, this show does something interesting for the first two seasons. The third season is where it falls apart.
Movies
The story is good. The idea that the Military Industrial Complex would attempt to kill someone so they could get more funding matches everything I know about contract companies. Especially those that have former special operators with a laxed moral complex.
TV
This show is infuriating. There are so many things wrong with the gun fights, the Lionesses, the demographics, and writing. However, it is a wildly entertaining story that you enjoy because the season is short. Only 8 episodes, therefore there aren't a lot of filler episodes which is so nice.
Movies
the scene where Harry and Voldemort take a tour of Hogwarts together, and it feels like an iconic scene as far as style. However, it is probably the most egregious use of CGI, but it might be the only one that really bothers me. The story overall is so well told. You get to see some serious...
Movies
This movie is really underrated, but at the same time I understand why people are not a big fan of this. We see these teenagers grow up and with that, some very questionable hair choices. I know this because this came out when I was high school and everyone was growing their hair out to match ...
Movies
As I grew up, I was never a big fan of this movie. However, watching it now and it is better than I remember. You get some solid growth in the young actors and their characters while continuing the story that ends up being a larger portion of the overall story.
