Emancipation (2022)
Worth watching
I've been waiting for this and hoping it would be good. It doesn't fail. I enjoy watching historical shows. Apple puts out very well scripted shows.
The scenery, acting, directing is outstanding. If this gets snubbed for Best Picture and Best Actor it would be a crime. I'm sure politics will try it's best for a woman to win considering it's all about femalist movies right now.
This is Will's best performance. The story follows Peter running for freedom til he gets to the end to fight the confederacy. He goes through a lot of hardship and Will Smith acting is superb.
The movie don't slow down. It keeps you guessing. Since this is based on true events. I'm not sure how much but the movie is enjoyable to watch.
I hope they don't continue to blacklist Will Smith because he deserves a chance to win.
R.I.P.D. 2: Rise of the Damned (2022)
Not very good
Not even close to being good as the first one. The jokes fall flat. They cast the wrong actors. They don't seem to own their roles. The writing is not very good at all. Slang talk was forced. I was excited when I saw this was coming out and man was I disappointed. Honestly this should of never been made. I couldn't finish the movie. They didn't use the right filters. It was too bright and too upbeat. It didn't have a that flair and magic as the first one. Me and my wife didn't enjoy it. We decided to watch the first one instead. I'm not sure what Netflix was thinking. They've been killing it lately on content.
Quantum Leap (2022)
Too emotional
First it started slow then ticked up a tad then lost momentum. Addison and Ian are horribly cast. Addison under acts and Ian over acts. I don't know if I'll watch anymore. You had a chance to make this good but apparently Hollywood ran out all the good writers. Nowadays writers are too young, inexperienced, zero direction and latching into the woke crowd. I get the feeling the show is going to be more about Addison's emotion. Stop with the Lifetime pull on your heartstrings. I can see why Scott Bakula turned it down. It don't grab you like the original show. Story looked bland. Rest of cast can be better too.
