No Time to Be Young (1957)
Really stupid.
To say the leads and the girl friends are college students is ridiculous. Robert, wasn't that good of an actor period. Same goes for Roger Smith, just a face, no depth, and the third guy, seen him on a couple of movies. He seemed to play losers most of the time. Merry anders nothing special about her either. This movie makes me think of, Robert in the movie called teenage cave man. Talk about a stinker. I don't know why back then they used actors that didn't fit the parts. Too old to play teens or college kids, didn't make sense. They still do it now. Give me the real talent, like the 30s and 40s, when actors had real talent.
4D Man (1959)
Sleazy brother.
I really like this movie, like most things Robert Lansing was in. His brother was something else. Hits town, cause he has no where else to go. Scott probably got him out of tr, most of his life, instead of letting him learn on his own. Scott tells him he plans on asking Linda to marry him, what part didn't tony understand?? Then Ms lady like Linda falls for tony right off the bat. Tony had already taken one of Scott's girl friend in the past. Linda looked old than tony anyway, before the end Scott should have zapped both of them. Robert Strauss playing his normal scheming self, as always. None of these people are likeable except Scott. Sometimes the bad guy should win.
This Is My Love (1954)
Spiteful Dan
There is no way I would have let dan talk to me like that. Her boyfriend joked and played ⚙ much. Glenn wasn't all that, he knew the sister was married but didn't care. Evie was a tramp and spoiled. Dan may been in wheelchair, but he still could have watched his own kids. Telling Vida to answer the door, when all he had to do was roll his ass over and open it. Vida should never have moved in with them. I would have told Dan what I thought about him, and let him know his precious Evie was cheating. He was so full of self pity. He was too over the top in this. Cripple or not I didn't feel sorry for him.
Love, Honor & Obey: The Last Mafia Marriage (1993)
Hell to the NO!!!
This was a great day, but I can't believe Rosalie was that st and naive. Catholic sc or not. We all know how girls in private schools talk and find out things. And to believe him, before the wedding saying that he's never had sex. Please unless she's slow, or trying to play innocent it's not believable. Thought mafia believed in family. He's the one that broke the marriage vows. Then making her talk to his other woman. No way in hell I would have stayed with him. Then none of the other families helped when he was in jail. People say that she was strong, but I say weak. They don't believe in divorce, screw that. Low self esteem..
American Gothic (1987)
Got what you deserved.
It's an ok movie. The problem is if you go looking for help, and you knock 4⃣ or, five times. You keep walking. You don't just go inside someone's house and snoop, around and mess with their stuff. Then you try to get an attitude, when they tell you their rules. Being, rude making fun of them and their ways. Common sense tells you that people in the back woods probably have something wrong with them. So as I said they deserved what happened. Same goes for running in high heels, breathing loud enough for the killer to hear you. Not going for a vital organ, if you have a weapon. Then staying there to see if they're really dead, stupid. Smh.
Murdoch Mysteries: The Cottage in the Woods (2023)
Julia meh.
I've said it before, they act like Julia is the only one who has brains. Ms hart, and effie are both smart. Ms cherry is like Julia, thinks she can do and say anything she wants to. Julia has broken a lot of laws but because she's Williams, she doesn't get what she deserves. When she told him damn your God, that's when he should have dumped her. I can't stand her stupid little girl giggle, but I'm watching for her to be sent to her rehab. Even watts or Higgins said she does love her drink. When she accused Margaret of leaking something to the news papers, She didn't even her a chance to speak. Turned out it was Julia's assistant who leaked information. It killed her, to admit to Margaret she was wrong. It's all about Julia, thinks only of herself.
Schizo (2012)
Bad, bad.
Whomever thinks this is a great movie, must have something wrong with them. First of all, they give no info on which actors are playing the parts. Same goes for the plot. The other doctor with the white hair really looks like he was deformed. Then they show him again he looks normal. After he's killed, why would the fbi investigate??? Then there's only one agent, and he sounds and acts crazy as hell. You can tell the beard is fake right from the start. When he's checking into the motel, he says he's a detective, his vest clearly says fbi. This so called movie is all over the place. This is a hour and some minutes, I can't get back. And I'm tired of this 600 word review crap, de won't be doing it again. Other platforms to use. Imdb used to be great, now you just really suck.
The Prowler (1981)
Boring with a capital B
Everyone has different tastes, but this so called slasher or whatever, is tripe. Only two big name stars granger and Tierney. And Tierney might as well not have been in it. Just sitting in a wheelchair, grabbing a purse. OK, prom going on, when the news comes out about the prowler, you mean no one else wants to help find him?? Really, come on get real. The girlfriend is is silly, still mad cause her deputy danced with someone before her. So it's just the two of them searching, until the end. I mean was the budget so low, they didn't want to pay extra??? Nothing scary or anything else makes this special. As I said boring, bad acting and definitely not worth your time, as I found out. Pass it by.
Father Brown: The Hammer of God (2013)
Great series.
I just started watching the series from the beginning. I don't miss Mrs m. She was petty annoying, and thought she was better than others. I know a lot of people say that's how was back then. She gossiped all the time, smiling in people's faces, then talked behind their backs. I loved when she was in trouble, but then, she'd go back to being herself. Always acting holy, but never said anything about lady Felicia sleeping around with different men all the time. I loved bunty and sid and Felicia,. But Mrs Devine and the new girl are a breath of fresh air. Also glad they got rid of Mallory, he was an ass. Disrespectful and rude.
Death in Paradise: Unlike Father, Unlike Son (2015)
Good episode.
First off this was a great episode, if you didn't like it fine. Second there is nothing wrong with the way Florence dresses. Everyone had their own style. If anything Richard looked stupid walking around in that black suit. Temperature had to be above 90. He is drab and boring, never tried to embrace the island or the people. At least Neville adapted. The only complaint I have is Humphrey 's prick of a father. Too overbearing, and snobbish. The commish gets on my nerves also always grumpy, never nothing nice to say. In the new season I'm surprised he wasn't shot before this. Never smiles talks down to all of inspectors.
Blacke's Magic (1986)
Harry Morgan thumbs down.
I liked the series, but noticed they copied a number of episodes from other tv series. The magician being shot in the pool while in a casket underwater. It came from the original burke's law, and also from 80s burke's law remake. The disappearing sculpture is from banacek, there's another but i can't remember. The father is annoying and a buffoon. He takes away from the show. Loved the different guest stars. Have always liked Hal linden. Wish they could have had him doing more magic. Maybe if they had gotten rid of Harry Morgan, the show would have lasted longer. Even in the series mash Morgan was an idiot, same thing with dragnet, his so called advice and jokes were lame. Bad enough jack Webb walking around looking and acting wooden.
The Bride and the Beast (1958)
Lame and incorrect.
I've seen Ed wood Jr movies before,, I thought plan 9 or whatever it was called, was bad. I've watched this movie before, don't know what made me want, to see it again. So couple on honeymoon, gorilla, gets out cage and starts fondling wife. She just stands there, gorilla rips gown off, then the husband shoots it. So guess he's gonna let the beast, get some before him. Instead of getting real help for her, his doctor friend hynotizes her. Then he still wants to go on his so called animal hunt. OK you're in Africa, they don't have tigers except in the zoo. They are native to Asia. And his guy taro, named like the Hawaiian plant, wearing a turban. Marta, is killed by the tiger, and she's wearing a sari. Come on now. This is pure crap, and I watched it again to see if I was right. Anyone saying this fantastic, is crazy as Ed Jr.
Masters of Horror: Pro-Life (2006)
Hillbillies unleashed m
This is the stupidest episode ever. Backwoods folks taking the law into their own hands. The sons were afraid of the father, who was a total tool. But I was glad to see the other father who was talking trash to, his daughter get killed. Never considered, perlman a good actor. He was definitely a bully in this, The sons seemed kind of slow, like maybe they were inbred. Especially the son standing guard outside, something was definitely wrong with him. The so called devil was laughable. Perlman 's mouth hanging open makes him look moronic. But the doctor with the guns put up a good fight. As I said dull episode.
Masters of Horror: Homecoming (2005)
Reality
I didn't watch this one the first time. But it's so realistic, america needs to stay out of other countries wars These people have been fighting almond since the beginning of time. America's problems are we're greedy, taking advantage of countries that have oil. We have oil here, the US takes theirs for a lower price. They stole America from the real natives, they stole Hawaii, invading other cultures. But then you want to call this the land of the free. Growing up in the 60s and 70s, color didn't matter to me, I was raised that way thank God. You go to war and when you come back, if you come back, you're invisible. Didn't mean to get political but, this episode did something to me. And if I offended anyone sorry.
Halloween Horror Tales (2018)
Horror 😂😂😂😂😂
The people who said this is a great horror movie movie, have to be friends of the cast and crew. This is no way near horror,. The group must have been high and said, hey let's make a horror movie. The clown wig was a cheap string mop. The big girl in the black supposedly sexy outfit that was waaay too small for her. I kept wondering why she was ebreathing so hard when hiding. It wasn't like. She had been running. All she did was go down some stairs. Now talk about the killer looking for her. I mean was he wearing a fencing mask??? Then the real hoot was his weapon some dvds glued together with jagged edges. Talk about a cheap budget, this turkey had no budget. Hope this is the only thing they made.
The First 48: The Grudge (2019)
Horrible.
How in the hell do you plead guilty, and only get ten years for out right murder and only do two???? He should still be locked up,, as I keep saying the so called justice system is messed up. This was a slap on the hand. And people wonder why crime is on the rise. Because these judges aren't doing their jobs. Put the ones who want to kill in the service. Plenty of wars going on. See how they work out then. There used to be a time if you did a crime, you could either go to prison or the armed forces. They should bring this back. America is really on the way to hell. The son at the end of of this episode was heartbreaking.
Alice Adams (1935)
Over acting, if even that.
Never been a fan of Katherine hepburn, her affected accent is just so phoney sounding. Even when playing ordinary people she uses it. It's like she really wants to be a snob. Other actors are able to take on different types of accents, but she sticks to the same one. She's not a great actress, and I've never seen anything special about her. Same goes for so called love interest Spencer Tracy. Nothing special about him either. Fred mcmurray is just plain dull Even in double indemnity he was dull. He can't play the tough guy really. Like watching paint dry. If you want to something to put you to sleep, watch this.
Murdoch Mysteries: Murdoch in Ladies Wear (2013)
Spoiled Julia.
Finally someone says no to Julia, I laughed when Darcy tore up the divorce papers. I notice when she doesn't get her way, she gets an attitude. Then telling William they will live together anyway.. She doesn't care about his reputation or his feelings. He should have been done with her when she told him one time, Damn your God. She knows he believes in his faith. It's all about her and what she wants. Some of the things she does is definitely out of order. She knew she didn't love Darcy, why marry him?? I think she loved it that two men wanted her. To me she's annoying, and I hate that giggle she does for no reason. Her simpering, and whining is too much. William needs to take some the air out of her, and put her in her place. I dislike her as much as Ms cherry,.
Black Night (2020)
What the hell????
This has to be the sorriest attempt at slasher /horror I've never seen. Senseless stories, need more back to them. Nothing scary about any of the so called short stories. I don't even remember this being a tv series, but that what it's considered as. Acting is flat. Bad acting, even worse actors. Never heard of any of of them. Looks more like a bad scripted home movie. Same actors in d parts, at least that's the way it looks. I'd give this a d for effort and and a big double f for failure, cause this is certainly a failure, in all aspects. From beginning to end it's a total train wreck. Talk about lack of talent.
The Cool and the Crazy (1958)
Really!!!!!
This has to be one of the worst movies ever. The actors that were,supposedly teenagers, had to be going on thirty, if not older. Never considered Scott Marlowe that good an actor. He was really over the top in this. Talk about ham, if that was method acting, he definitely missed a few classes. The guy Jackie was pitiful, a regular wimp. First he starts out being big and bad like his lump of a friend cookie. I don't know what kind of weed they were smoking, it made them claw at their throats. Come on be serious, saying they feel like they're dying. If anything this would make some dummies try it, just to see if it could make them, feel like that. 😂
Midsomer Murders: The Devil's Work (2023)
Loved it.
So many people complaining about this episode and earlier ones. Of course Neil is looking older, just as Tom Barnaby aged. As for him being fat he's not. If you all dislike him so much, you can always watch the ones with Tom. All of those weren't good, or better yet, use your remote to watch something else. Sooo tired of people comparison the two men. They both are great, as for the show ending like I said before, no worries is making you watch it. This is so annoying, you need to adapt to new things. Before when Brian True - may was in charge there was no diversity. Now there is, glad they got rid of him, narrow minded like some of these comments. Smh.
When Love Kills: The Falicia Blakely Story (2017)
Wrong person playing lead.
The movie is OK. But Lil ma looks not like the real person. Lala land needs to start using actors who at least resemble the real people. If the dancers they had in the movie are really dancers, they must be damn near starving. It's sad some desperate women still like and want this type of man. Lil ma might rap but sure as hell can't act, or dance. So the real person is still in jail, for being stupid. Wasted her life, lost her child and for what??? Her friend will be out before she will. I don't feel sorry for her. Also I don't have eighty more words to say. Decided to stop reviewing, cause it makes no sense to do six hundred words.
Vertigo (1958)
Masterpiece no.
James Stewart as a romantic leading man is ludicrous. Really miscast in, this and Bell book and candle, and rear window. He's wooden, always makes he's going to say aww shucks mam. Feel the same way about Spencer Tracey, always wondered what hepburn saw in him. Even when he was younger he looked old as dirt. Maybe they were under cover as it's been said. Bogart would have been great in this if he had lived, or even cagney. Kim Novak was, just window dressing in her movies. Same vapid look, only thing that caught your eyes were those crazy looking eyebrows. She did a terrible job doing Jeanne eagels, over the top and not believable.. Love hitchcock, but this one really sucks.
She Freak (1967)
What no diversity)??
This one pitiful movie, bad enough the plot is stupid and the actors can't act. I guess wherever they filmed it, there weren't any different people of color or races. It looks like a home made movie, and even calling it a movie is a stretch. I mean yeah it was made back in the day. But really even movies back then diverse people. All of actors and extras look like they come from some lame ass town. Talk about contrified, welcome to a place you would step in. Hell if you're different you wouldn't make it out alive. I watched this one to see what it was about, and the answer is a big fat nothing. Don't waste the time like I did. M.
The Hypnotic Eye (1960)
Good, but not believable.
I like this movie, try to watch it everytime I can it. Love Allison Hayes, she reminds her a sleek cat. I don't see why the hypnotist didn't try to find a plastic surgeon for her. So I guess every place they played, women disfigured themselves??? The detective is really clueless, talk about a moron. His buddy had more sense, and even told him hypnotism could, be dangerous in the wrong hands. Wasn't the guy played dodo's doctor, some kind of con artist in real life? The thing that couldn't make sense to me, is why dodo would even have a bottle of dangerous acid in her home, in the first place. Guess the hypnotist told her to buy it. Yeah right.
