A Christmas Carol (2020)
This gives the impression of a ghostly dream gracefully playing before our eyes. It is extremely theatrical and a bold choice for todays audiences.
DetailsAntlers
…the film is also overwhelmingly depressing. A film needs a balance of highs and lows, comedy and drama, light and dark. This movie is all lows, drama and dark.
DetailsSilent Night, Deadly Night
Robert Brian Wilson was a great choice for the lead, he was very handsome and wholesome looking, with a kind and welcoming smile. But once he breaks, all warmth erodes away leaving only a vacant haunting emptiness in his eyes.
DetailsRed Snow
The very title brings up the contrast between the blood red and the pure snow, which cold symbolize the very relationship of the main characters. Olivia’s purity and zany personality vs. Luke’s more reserved edge and excitement.
DetailsSilent Night (2021)
It could have been a very hard-hitting emotional story that would have left me in tears, both from laughter and the very sadness of the situation. The problem is none of the main characters are very likeable. They are all self-absorbed, snobbish and a bit bitchy. #SilentNight
DetailsLost In Space
Not the adrenaline rush that some of the previous seasons have been, this was a good starting point to bridge the gap between seasons and to help jog one’s memories of what lead up to their current situation. #LostInSpace #ComicWatch
DetailsMasters of the Universe: Revelation Part Two
This series gives depth and complexity to what was generic two-dimensional characters and does so with a compelling storyline with magic and adventure. And Yes! He-Man plays a major role in it!
DetailsCowboy Bebop (2021)
There is a certain magic captured in the source material, and we see glimpses of sparkle here and there in the live action, with similar tones and themes, it just doesn’t have the “soul” of the original, but it may have its own spirit.
DetailsStar Trek Discovery
Kobayashi Maru, the title of the first episode of season four, not only relates to the episodes story, but I am sure it foreshadows the difficult choices that the Discovery’s crew and Captain are going to face in the episodes to come.
DetailsFinch
This movie is really about the relationship that builds between a misanthropic man, who even before the cataclysm, didn’t work well with others, and a childlike robot.
DetailsWilly Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
Gene Wilder as Willy Wonka. Not only did he have the correct balance between reality and zany manic energy, but there is a subtle dark humor that was portrayed to perfection.
DetailsRagdoll
A body consisting of body parts from six separate victims is discovered, and later, DS Rose receives a list with six new names on it, including his own, alluding that a new “Ragdoll” is being constructed.
