There certainly seems to be a bit of poor quality stuff out there at the moment, and IMO this one is another one of them: – movie starring Bruce Willis, called "Apex", and it is dire.

 

He must have been paid all of $120 for his role and if you think it's going to be anything like his previous roles where he was quite energetic, think again, because he looked far older, in the way he moved, than his 66 years, and in fact the only "action scenes" he is in, is where he is walking in the forest.

 

If you want to save 90 minutes of your life, then don't watch this!

He's gone the way of other once A list actors, he'll take anything that he's offered, no matter how trashy.. He's worth $250 Million, so why he needs the bucks beats me.

I'm a lot more selective with the movies I watch these days.

 

You can generally get a pretty good idea by the reviews.

I generally don't touch movies that don't get at least a 7.5 in IMDB or a good review on Rotten Tomatoes.

Sadly, Bruce Willis is a hard pass these days - too bad because the Die Hard franchise is a classic IMO - but he continually sinks to new depths.

 

Speaking of poor quality stuff, I read the following desciption and could only shake my head:

 

”Artisan cheese shop owner Brie finds herself competing for a $50,000 prize in her town's annual Cheese Festival. To boost her presence, she teams up with an influential cheese critic to profile her vintage smoked gouda. As their friendship develops into romance, a competitor's business proposal and unforeseen complications force Brie to put her shop - and heart - on the line.”

 

Too be fair, this may be ok (I haven’t watched it) but after reading the above I honestly think to myself who would watch this <deleted>!

There is a TV series called  Yellowstone. This forum is about TV and Cinema. Perhaps that might help you understand we are not discussing parks.

It can't be a very good TV series because I've never heard of it.

I've just started watching this. More than a few 'cringe' moments that many will identify with.

It had me chuckling more a few times.

New one just dropped.

Summary: A veteran beat cop and teenage girl fall to their deaths from a tower block in south-east London, leaving a five-year-old boy and rookie police officer Lizzie Griffiths on the roof, only for them to go missing. Detective Sergeant Sarah Collins is drafted in to investigate, working to find Lizzie before she comes to serious harm, but also to uncover the truth behind the grisly tower block deaths.

 

 

[Will27]

Rocco Schiavone

 

On RARBG with subs.

Summary: Weed smoking, foulmouthed Rocco Schiavone is an offbeat Deputy Commissioner of the State Police. For disciplinary reasons he is transferred to the Alpine town of Aosta, far from his beloved Rome. The sophisticated but cranky Roman despises the mountains, the cold, and the provincial locals as much as he disdains his superiors and their petty rules. But he loves solving crimes.

FINCH starring Tom Hanks, a robot called Jeff and a dog named Goodyear. I really enjoyed this, if your eyes don't get moist at the end, you have no heart.

Thanks for the recommendation and I watched it last night, and also thought it was good......and it seems I do have a heart!!!!

 

I also watched the docudrama called, "Soaked in Bleach" and thought it very intriguing.

 

For me there were too many discrepancies in the police report and work, and some things just didn't seem to fit, and when it was disclosed that the chief of police was found guilty of theft/accepting bribes and fired a little later, that also added to the confusion, as well as the purportedly shoddy police work.

 

One thing that I couldn't come to terms with was the description by the first medic on the scene with regards to the wound............but I don't want to spoil it for anybody who wants to watch it, so give it a go.

Possibly because if you ain't out there people forget that you exist.

Eternals. That's 2 1/2 hours of my life wasted.

Requisite number of minority actors, and a completely irrelevant homosexual relationship complete with child. Given by the amount of time spent talking, instead of doing something they must think it's going to be a contender for the Oscars.
