The Consultant 2023

 The Consultant               #Prime video Series Review

  One Word Review            Waste of Time


Quick Review

Fascinating reason, good acting, unfortunate content. Each of the odd or bizarre actions in the series is said to be in the interest of growing a struggling gaming company and the legacy of its founder, who was shot to death by a child while on a field trip to the company's offices.

The main characters' willingness to comply with the wishes of the new consultant undermines credibility, and the story doesn't make much sense. Most likely due to the difficulty of caring deeply about any of these superficial characters, there is very little dramatic tension.

In the end, the series is a waste of time, and even if you make it to the end, there is no satisfying conclusion. Things don't come together well at the end. The plot and story don't make any sense; the decisions and motivations of the characters are "just because," and they don't seem like real people. Although Christoph Waltz performs admirably, the rest of the film is just okay. The middle episodes drag along mystery boxes to keep the audience interested, but they are pretty shallow and don't end in a way that is satisfying or complex. The first couple of episodes were interesting, but I thought the rest were pointless.



"The Consultant" tries hard to be mysterious, but it doesn't have a clear structure, going from the improbable to the ridiculous.

It might engage under-30's in its mysterious, sub-noir style. However, it severely lacks conceptual depth for those who did not have a Game Controller as a child.

Simply being enigmatic is not sufficient.

There is no subtext at all, leaving only a superficial, if not poor, version of the "who did it?" question without a strong desire to care "who?"



The supporting cast was a huge distraction with no charisma, and the story lost a lot of steam in the two most recent dull and ridiculous episodes. In the end, there was practically no reward, and all that was left was disappointment.

Unredeemable exercise in futility. Inexplicable character choices and actions, no responses. Eventually, one is left considering what any of it was about. I will not waste my time again if there is a second season, which I cannot fathom.

Kill Boksoon (2023)

  Kill Boksoon (2023)  #Movie Review One Word Review Superb! Quick Review A stylish and not too bloody Korean version of John Wick, in my opinion. I don't usually watch movies of this kind, but I watched it for the lead actress. Very much made and engaging, in spite of the fact that when I say it's their variant of John Wick it has killing by a pen and short proximity weapon shots to the heads, yet it kept me on the edge of the seat till the end. Good behavior. Compared to John Wick 4, it had more anticipation throughout. Great acting. This is an extremely gripping action-thriller, and you can feel the rawness, emotions, and inner struggles. Especially on the lines of john wick! Gill boksoon, the lead actress, is a well-known assassin who works for the MK company. MK (mi kyu) is the head of the company (high table) and has a close relationship with boksoon, just like in John Wick. His sister however is unique, rushed and detests her. There are rules here too-not to kill an ...

It is based on real-life events about a Nike employee trying to make a deal with rookie basketball player Michael Jordan to start the Air Jordan shoe line. Affleck, Marlon Wayans, Chris Messina, Chris Tucker, Viola Davis, and Matt Damon appear in the film. One Word Review                       Excellent movie! Quick Review Air is matt damon Ben Affleck new film released on April 5, 2023. "Air," Ben Affleck's latest film as director, is a sports drama that doesn't do anything novel or risky. Instead, it's a boring sports drama that tells the real story of Sonny Vaccaro and his novel and risky idea for Nike. Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Viola Davis, Jason Bateman, Chris Tucker, Marlon Wayans, and a stellar cast. The movie had a great plot about Nike's attempt to acquire basketball playe...

The last Kingdom Movie Review 2023

 The last Kingdom Movie Review 2023 "The Last Kingdom: Seven Kings Must Die"   is British drama movie directed by Edward Bazalgette, composed by Martha Hillier, and in light of The Saxon Stories by Bernard Cornwell. It is a sequel to the television series The Last Kingdom. Alexander Dreymon played role of Bebbanburg once more. On April 14, 2023, Netflix released it. Its purpose is to bring the story and the series to a close. One Word Review                 Good but not great. Quick Review This has the same issue as another recent Netflix film that was also a follow-up to a real series in that it has very little in common with a real movie? Because it's all episodic, it still feels like a 6- to 8-episode series. The battle sequences are fun when they happen, but there aren't many of them, and there will be a lot you don't understand. Extremely hurried, and it did not do justice to the beloved characters from the film and the books. ...

 Renfield 2023 Movie Review Renfield is a supernatural horror comedy that was made in the United States in 2023. It was directed by Chris McKay, who also co-produced the film. Ryan Ridley wrote the script, which was based on a story by Robert Kirkman (who also co-produced the movie). Highlighting characters from the 1897 novel Dracula by Bram Stoker, the film stars Nicholas Hoult as the title character and Nicolas Enclosure as Dracula, with Awkwafina, Ben Schwartz, Adrian Martinez, and Shohreh Aghdashloo in supporting roles.  One Word Review       One Time Watchable Quick Review Nicholas Cage plays a wonderful  Dracula in Renfield.   Nicholas    graces Renfield with a vampire depiction for the ages. Unfortunately,  It's a sloppy movie that succeeds and fails to succeed. However, "Renfield" lacks grandeur, poetry, or mystery. There are a lot of scattered "ideas" in there, but none of them really take root.The movie's under...

Gaslight (2023)

  Movie review - Gaslight Available on - Disney plus hotstar Parental guidance - Not with family lot's of violence and some f words Review - Gaslight is a decent dark murder mystery thriller that can be watched and tried once. It has no original idea or plot, and the story and scenes are very predictable and routine. The plot twists might surprise you at the end, but they aren't logical. Rahul Dev, Akshay Oberoi, Shishir Sharma, Ashmita Jaggi, and the entire supporting cast were fine and decent in the movie. The screenplay was well written, the pace was fast, and the direction was good. However, The film's saving grace is its climax. As a series, this might have been better. I kept getting the impression that I was watching a shorter version of a longer story because there were too many characters and not enough background information for me to understand where they came from, and many scenes went by way too quickly. People jump to conclusions too quickly at the beginnin...

The story, Fletcher's direction, and the lack of chemistry between Evans and de Armas were all criticized in the film's negative reviews. One Word Review             Casually enjoyable. Quick Review This film was a flat out roller coaster beginning to end, with heart-siphoning action and a grasping storyline that kept me as eager and anxious as ever. The acting in this film was first class, with every entertainer Evans and Ana conveying a champion presentation that rejuvenated their characters in a rea...
