Locke & Key: 3x08 Farewell

Season 3 was pretty awful but my main surprise here was that the girl who tricked Tyler into a date (the friends were never invited come on) and then drove hundreds of miles uninvited to see him...wasn't a demon out to get him?

Even if this season wasn't awful that alone shows how badly thought out this all was.

The Princess

I didn't expect much from this film and while it won't go into the hall of fame, it was really good.

Was pure action with a little plot but sometimes simple works. If you're looking for a movie that is essentially one long fight scene and love swords then this is for you.

Legacies
Stranger Things: 3x08 Chapter Eight: The Battle of Starcourt

The series could end here and it would be a perfect end (but boy do i hope its not) because this season was phenomenal and by far the best one yet.

When Jim died by heart broke but the post credit scene has given me some hope, because there's no way they can take the only real parent she's ever had away right??!

Midnight, Texas: 2x09 Yasss, Queen

Glad everything wrapped up nicely at least without a cliffhanger. Seems they had planned from the getgo to cancel this.

Charmed: 1x02 Let This Mother Out

Just like episode one this feels like they're doing things for the sake of doing it. I spent so much time cringing at the bad acting and the forced social issues.

Feeling more and more like this remake is only here to show how awesome phones are now and to have a lesbian and non white female actors.

Anyone else notice that in this episode a phone saved the day and in the last episode their phones were everywhere?

It feels like the brief wasn't "make a charmed remake" it was "make a remake of any show but make sure we address x, y and z"

Loki: 2x06 Glorious Purpose

This is truly the best thing marvel has produced post end game and one of the best thing the MCU has created, period.

I love marvel unapologetically and even i can say this is more than the superhero genre, this is full on sci-fi and its up there with some of t best.

Transplant: 4x02 Sinkhole

bash was infuriating in this episode and i had to skip most of his scenes.

the firefighter had it right, how could he think he had more info and skill than the team of 20 experts? i know the show started with him being a hero and a risktaker but he just crossed right into suicidal hero with a god complex... which again i understand because of his past but it's still quite frustrating having a character with zero development season after season.

The Wheel of Time: 2x07 Daes Dae'Mar

Amazing episode and has only made me wish that this was a longer season more.

But what on earth was the colouring in the scene in the dessert with Perrin? I thought my TV was broken for a second.

Invasion: 2x05 A Voice from the Other Side

there is a fine line between an annoying character, a stupid character and I want to maime them character. if you don't get the balance right, then seeing them on screen becomes an irritation more than anything else.

Never Have I Ever
Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches

I love the Daddario siblings and will watch anything they are in. I loved Alexandra in this and so i was immediately pulled in.

Unfortunately, I think, like many shows recently, this has fallen victim to a short episode order. This needed to be in the 22-episode tv format and not 8. They tried to cover too much in too little space and nothing had a chance to build out and be adequately explained.

This was a 22-episode script compacted down instead of being written as 8 episodes and so, everything was rushed and at times confusing. I'm hopeful that season 2 is better as I think it could end up being worthwhile.

Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches: 1x08 What Rough Beast

This was a really poor season finale. Felt like any character development with Rowan just went right out the window and didn't make much sense. Nothing about the last few episodes had any rhyme or reason.

All together great, but this needed another 5+ episodes to let stories play out correctly + I wish we could have got more than 2 minutes of all the couples happy together.

While it's sad that Felix ended up without Pilar/Lake, he got what he needed the most - a family and I think they did that really well.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds: 1x08 The Elysian Kingdom

I've loved every episode so far but this was very 'filler' which is normally not so obvious for an adventure of the week type show.
Was the equivalent of a musical episode on the pointless and boring scale.

Also, Rebecca Romijn was in, maybe, 2 minutes of this episode but even then you really see how weak of an actress she is. I notice it every episode, everyone else is fine so she really stands out as someone who is visibly 'acting'.

Legacies: 4x20 Just Don't Be a Stranger, Okay?

All things considered not a bad ending.

Despite understanding why Landon and Hope couldn't end up together (as all signs pointed towards it from season 1) I was still hoping that they would end up together until the bitter end, but I get it, it's been understood from the get-go that their destinies were not to be together. I just hate that he has to spend eternity alone, slowly losing himself. Ethan staying with him would have been good and fits what Ethan needed in his own life.

All in all, it ends well and while there are aspects I don't like I love that the reasoning behind everything - the series is ultimately about Hope going to school to learn, and she learnt the most important thing (as her dad said in his message), she will love and lose and end up being the last thing standing. Her most important lesson and one she struggled with from the start.

Everyone came out learning things and being a better person, which made the ending full circle.

The Northman

Abandoned 1-hour and 10 minutes in

The pacing of this was awful. I looked up and 1-hour had passed but it felt like only 10 minutes worth of the story has been told as it was so slow and nothing of worth had happened in 50 minutes.

I don't understand why they market movies as something it isn't it. It can only lead to disappointment. Everything in the trailer was shown within the first 20 minutes because they were trying to show this movie as something it wasn't so used * all** the noteworthy scenes and what was left was bland and boring.

The main issue here was pacing though as the Alexander was brilliant.

Good Trouble: 4x02 Kiss Me and Smile for Me

Couldn't have asked for a better goodbye for her, having watched her since she was Baby Callie in The Fosters it's been wonderful see the character and the actress grow up over the years. They really did her justice.

Plus, Callie and Jamie have been endgame since the get go, so the final few minutes felt beautiful.

I hope we see her again and she pops in with the rest of the family every now and again.

The Sorcerer's Apprentice

A dreadful backstory that makes you think the entire movie has a £5 budget and no actors who took acting lessons, but if you sit through the first 5 minutes it is a good enough movie.

:movie_camera:
Story = 5/10
Production Design = 6/10
Soundtrack = 3/10
Acting = 7/10 (ignoring the backstory)
Total = 6/10

Doctor Who: 13x06 The Vanquishers

I feel the phrase "I'm lost" can't quite sum up how I feel about the last two episodes. The Weeping Angles episode was unbelievably good and it just turned so bad so quickly. Totally lost on all of this and I understand more will be revealed soon but right now... I'm not sure how much I care.

Not sure if it was due to COVID but this was far too rushed, the last two episodes needed to be doubled if not tripled.

The Outpost: 4x13 Nothing Lasts Forever

will really miss this one!
I remember when the first episode came out and I gave up in the first 10 minutes (what awful acting!} but binge-watched it all this year and it's soo good, happy I waited though.

middle of the season was odd with them killing practically everyone off and assassinating all character development but it turned itself around.

nice to have a show that doesn't end awfully for once, feels like a rarity these days to even get a finale.

Fame

No real depth to the characters or plot. Feels like they tried to fit 3 seasons of a tv show worth of plots and characters into one movie and just decided to ditch all the worthwhile bits.

The 2nd

Because the year 2020 wasn't awful enough, it had throw one last curveball at us... This movie.

this was a shocking zero budget film. what was this??????

2 minutes in on the first scene and you can tell its awful with the actors on their second lesson of acting class.

I very rarely leave a film unfinished but I couldn't take even 10 minutes of this. Ryan Phillippe must either had a gun held to his head or been in some serious debt and needed fast cash, though I can't image they had any money to pay him.

Shockingly bad, avoid like the COVID-19 pandemic.

Warrior Nun

Even if this wasn't from 'no renew' Netflix that cliffhanger still wouldn't be okay. Didn't even truly feel like a cliffhanger, more like they just didn't know how to continue the story or have the budget too.

The plot only really started 2-3 episodes ago so feels like a massive let down... Wasted a shocking amount of time on a love story that isn't going to lead anywhere (where is he, is he just not going to be mentioned again??) as it seems Sister Beatrice is the next love interest.

A lot of hours to get zero conclusions and a non-ending.

In short; subpar storyline, pointless love story, no ending and a let down for what was an interesting premise. First ten minutes and the last ten minutes are the only interesting parts of the whole of season 1.

Tip to the people over at Netflix:
If someone has watched the last episode and can't figure out why the 'next episode button' hasn't shown up, you've done something very wrong. When you get an interesting story idea, make sure you get the correct people to write the story.
