Sadly, this is what happens when someone who has never been in any financial institution, tries to write drama about it... Continue reading at your own spoiler - risk.No two-month hire would be able to transact without authorisation. The moment the discrepancy got sent to accounting, it would have been flagged to Daria the Line Manager and Eric, her boss. No accounting officer would risk his job for a recent hire, nor would he sit there and be talked to like that. Too bad, all for the sake of fake drama.
Those first ten-ish minutes...
Laughable... I mean, this IS supposed to be happening in the real world. Yet, we see the IOC, which can't be named because of legal reasons, one of the most corrupt and under-the-table institutions in the world, being portrayed as what? Honourable? Clean? Please... Also - really - THIS is how a city would lose the Olympic Games? Again - laughable. And finally - really (v. 2) - Rapinoe? Just gonna stop here and save myself the time. A sad ending for a show that was, up until recently, entertaining.
That ending... the music... the directing... the emotions...
The problem has become that, everybody in this show is so filthy rich, it's impossible to care for any of them. I don't care what happens to Mike, or Wendy, or Chuck or Kate or any of them because whatever happens, they are going to land on their feet, the only loss of theirs being a part of their fortune. Just backstabbing and under-the-table deals. I suppose it's a pretty accurate look at the pointlessness of such people's lives, but why do I need to care? Sadly, this is going nowhere... Also, that scene at the end? Please...
Kudos for the acting, which is fantastic on all fronts, however, this is otherwise, drawn-out, boring and predictable. Not the actors' fault, but that doesn't make this any less of a waste of time.
Wohoho.... Rarely does a show start with such a good episode. The bland realism of it all is amazing. If this is any indication of things to follow, this is going to be a good one.
Now that was a really good episode, setting up some interesting stuff. Only danger I see is the series spiralling into a copy - paste of Chuck vs Axe, turned into Chuck vs Prince. But we'll see.
"You wanna see my flair? Here's my flair! This is my flair."
Writing at the end of season one, this show is a masterpiece. The animation is novel, crisp and downright amazing. The characters are unique, with depth and are explored and developed in a masterful way. The music is a whole thing of awesomeness on its own. Watch this, it's a must.
Wow... I did not expect this. They finally did it. A perfect-as-can-be adaptation of the bible of Sci-Fi into film. There are no mistakes made, the characters, the technology, the feeling, all main events portrayed accurately.
No nonsense, no studio politics, just the book.
Well done Denis Villeneuve Sir, I salute and thank you.
For a series that went eight episodes in a pattern of both deeply emotional topics coupled with scenes of shocking or sick violence, this was a very bland ending. My "problem" with it is that it does injustice to the series itself, though I suppose the relative banality of it can be a lesson in itself - sometimes terrible and tragic things happen for very mundane reasons. If there is a season two, I hope it's not about Gi-Hun re-entering some next edition of the game in order to catch the organisers.
I... I think... I think this is a perfect episode.
Brilliant series with superb character development, great screenplay, awesome audio and an excellent take on the subject of reality and time travel. It's story arc completion in three seasons is exactly right, doing the story justice without dragging it out. A series that makes you think.
Great series from the first minute to the last. Without exaggerations, real good acting and tackling a mostly unknown topic, it gives a peak into a world unknown to most, a peak worth taking. Definitely recommended.
Good start for the season. Hope it continues on the right path.
The fights in this one are stiff and predictable. Also, the repeated peace and fighting between Daniel and Johnny is getting real boring, annoying and unrealistic. Try harder.
While not as bad as the last one, this is another episode with lazy writing and holes. Pretty much representative of the entire second season.
What a gem this movie is! Fantastic animation, great support characters and a really enthralling story. A must-see of the genre and not only! Definitely recommended!
It boggles the mind why the empire even has Stormtroopers, since they can never kill anyone. Why are they running at Boba Fet instead of shooting him? There is simply no actual thrill or danger feeling in the scenes, just padding the runtime. The Mandalorian just leaves his jetpack on the hillside after taking it off?. Also, really, Boba Fet? Really? Rechewing old character like the failed third movie trilogy? Who just happens to have the rocket to shoot down two transports with one shot? Which actually have guns and can take everyone down without danger to the troopers? Which are covered by a cruiser that can shoot at the Razor Crest from high above and blow it up but can't shoot at three little humans on a hillside?. This is going south really fast.
Could have been much better. The theme of incompetent imperials sadly continues here as well...
Yeah I mean this is fun but where is this going...?
Boring, without direction or concrete plot and devoid of any higher meaning, this season is just boom - boom, bang - bang, gangsters killing gangsters, vying for control of whatever. No one cares. Also includes: badly performed Italian language and a duo of romantically involved bandit ladies that murder a bunch of police officers and innocent people at a station. What are we even watching here?
Boring. What are we even watching any more? What is the plot? Nothing... Stuff just happening.
This one is a flawless must-see masterpiece.
This shows ranks below only South Park in uncovering the deep, crazy mess that is politics in and organisation of the United States - and that is high praise. Bonus - social issues addressed as by an adult and mess from around the world!
The nonsensical, illogical and forced theme continues, with a plot "twist" that anyone can guess from the first hint. Truly a disappointment, tempered only slightly by moments of good dialogue and acting by Travis Fimmel and Abubakar Salim.
Stupid and easy setup for the series start, multiple logic flaws and yet again the same old story, humanity destroyed itself, in a war between science and religion, and of course the android character representing science and the human character representing religion, will clash over the children that were saved from the destruction. I knew something was going to go wrong when at the opening scene the craft the androids used to reach the planet, stopped right at the edge of a pit, after travelling billions of kilometers through the galaxy. Should have stopped watching right there.
This series had me when Pogo appeared.
