The Tudors (2007–2010)
3/10
Vulgar Show with very few some good elements
1 May 2024
Vulgar show is what it is. Lacks taste and depth.

But it has a few good actors who contribute their best.

I found the costumes are really awfully done. Like as if for a school play. Women might as well walk naked instead of showing half their upper bodies and shoulders, no one during tudor era dressed like that.

The actress Natalie Dormer is not fit for the role, she does not know acting or grace, all are just too modern. Modern dialogues, and if there is and a man and a woman in a scene, they are guaranteed to sleep together, as if there is 0 reservation and or time to develop bonds,just shows Director's level of maturity.

Royal women just go to bed with whoever.

Relationships suck because there is no depth or bond built. Again shows perhaps lack of depth of director and writers.

If you want to watch how relationships should be built go watch the Last of Mohicans. Thats how it should be built. It is believable and deep.

The good things are Wosley, Thomas More and Thomas Cromwell. The actors who played those roles carried the show. The rest is garbage. Jonathan does not know acting. Miscast.

Disgusting. Becareful
16 April 2024
I am noticing the degrading quality of current way of story telling and making films in this industry, which employs a disgusting technique to conduct systematic attacks on a normal person's psyche.

One of the most subtle technique is to relax the audience first by showing a calm and safe scene or environment...then out of nowehere attack their sense with extremely discomforting scenarios, like animal abuse or extreme violence, mistrust, dropping a atomic bomb on a nice summer day family gathering, other kind 'wanting to shock and attack the open mind' tactics....... And any type of relationship is reduced to animalistic sex, nothing more, empty, meaningless, there sole purpose is shock value, not creating complex but deeper bonds, just sex = love, but it will turn into hate the next moment because people engaged never knew one another to begin with.....

Relax the audience and shock them. Especially with unneccesaary Violence, mistrust and lack of true connection.

This show is no exception for employing such disgusting tactics to assault human sensibility and psyche. Our minds when open... begin to trust and take in and ready to really open up to receive more information, thats why they create scenes that build such trust of audience and then bombard them with abusive elements.

If people are unaware of this, they just absorb this as normal and even appreciate it, while subconsciously they will be programmed to on a celluar level, because body remembers, to never truly trust and relax into the beneficial nature of reality and human nature.

They just want the audience live in subtle mistrust and anxiety and most relationships they show on tv nowadays do not have redeeming, long lasting, deeper bond qualities, it is often disconnected, empty, build mistrust and shock value oriented.

I noticed plenty of all that in this series.

Nothing deep. Incredibly shallow and empty, and unneccesarily violent.

It does not make the world any one bit better.

I could not even finish first episode as i recognized what is so rampant in current trend of film making in this one..

I pass this, as it's energy is really yucky.

Episode 7 is the dumbest.
27 March 2024
Warning: Spoilers
I mean do David and weiss have become dumber since Game of thrones.

So many plotholes in this.

First of all Santi is telepathic. But according to wade, they cannot see what the 'brain' is thinking. Lol. Dumb.

And Auggie's nano fibre is can be used for dangerous means as we have seen, but she will upload it to make open source so all cana recieve this weapon.? Really? Brilliant idea?

Dumb A. F

THE WHOLE EPISODE is based on dumb ideas.

Why would the world leaders waste nuclear weapons and resources for a plan to send a 'brain', without knowing how Santi will react to it, that is gonna happen 400 years later. ?They would rather accelarate their research. There could have been better ideas.

Looks like after Game of thrones, these writes have lost their brain.

Such a gem for a change.
4 October 2023
In this day of fast paced movies with no soul and pure emptiness and quick sensual gratifications, movies like this are a rare gem. It shows how directing and story telling to be done and what essence of human life to focus on.

It has soul.

Through the challenging circumstances characters dont settle for easy gratification but instead they choose to do the right and meaningful things. Which you dont find in most mainstream movies today.

We have a lot of dysfunctional empty productions lately on all streaming medias, leaving the viewer feel depressed and empty, its movies like this that still show the promise of depth and meaning, redemption.

Watch it, you deserve a connection like this.

Somebody shut Dev patel from talking.
1 October 2023
This is a migriane material. Talk talk talk talk. Especially Dev patel talking. Constant assault on senses. I have never craved Silence as much as now before.

Bad 39 minutes. Just because Ben kingsley played once Gandhi, suddenly they use him to represent Indians. Being an Indian i consider this laughable.

My senses simply could not take so much talking and i had to pause and check we were only 10 minutes into this show then we hit stop.

Ahhhhhh.. such relief. Welcoming Silence. Thank god.

This plain sucks. Cannot believe netflix has this. Nightmare material. There are couple more like this 17 minutes ones. Simply cannot take this kind of trash. Thanking the Silence. Phew.

Slow as F.
20 August 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Ok so the real issue here is anytime Alice's Mother could have asked June's help to escape her violent abusive husband and gone to the flower farm for safety. But she didnt. Infact she kept her own daugther and the new born child in the absuive environment.

Does not make sense. Staying in an physically violent relationship and keeping your childreb there, ESPECIALLY when you have real help available from other family members is plain stupidity but not Love. Agnes obvious was also dysfunctional in that regard. Allowing her daughter to be abused. Bringing another child to that environment.

Whole series is very very slow.

Child not talking but giving confused stares in a slow drag of a series and grandma keeping secrets hidden like Agnes was livin there before etc were unncessary, dont see the point of it.

Simple clear straight forward communication builds trust and is easier.

Sensitive people better watchout
1 January 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Wish i had known befote they actually show how the first ocelot Khan died , i would have skipped this.

I did not need to see Khan die.

It hurts to watch animals die.

They should just hve narrated that instead of showing. For sensitive people its too much.

Of you can handle that then perhaps this may have better depth as a overlal.documentary for you.

But it sucks to watch animals get hurt and die. I would rather skip such parts. Its heavy.

May God bless that ocelot kitten.

Hope God was with it as it transitioned.

May all humans evolve enough to recognise beauty in living beings and abolish hunting.

The Chosen (2017– )

This opens the Heart.
27 December 2022
I am not a christian.

But i always loved Jesus and saw him as LOVE itself. I always felt he was human who had self mastery and knew Spirit directly as it is possible for all of us.

I loved the back story of each of his apostles and i am rooting for matthew, james, john, mary, little james ALL of them as if they are my buddies. You can connect to all of them and you want to be part of Team Jesus.

If i were in those times i would be drawn to Jesus , the true living master. Like a iron attracted to magnet.

I feel this way about indian nonduality sage Ramana maharshi who is my another teacher.

Ramana represents Stillness and Jesus, LOVE.

This is a show that opens hearts. And it is SO crucial in this day and age.

I love this show.

I love Jesus. So relatable. So welcoming. So Wise. So loving.

Beautiful depiction unlike any i have ever seen.

Now whenever a quote from scripture pops up like from Matthew, john etc i feel them. I feel personally connected.

The Wonder (I) (2022)
1/10
As stupid as it can get.
4 December 2022
Warning: Spoilers
In one sentence utterly stupid movie.

I only loved the period settings. The houses, oil lamps, atmosphere.

The movie itself was stupid.

Idiotic. Pointless. At some moments torturous coz they know to drag the whole thing into a slow ooze.

The nurse character appears passive aggressive at all times.

Didnt really connect to any of the characters.

The story itself is very stupid.

How can anyone logical believe in feeding chewed food from mouth to mouth in the presence of watcher nun, and the girl to appear perfectly healthy?

Utterly dumb.

Either chose to keep it mystical or give a solid solution to not eating problem.

The movie's reasoning is utterly idiotic.

And in the end the reporter and the nurse and the child all are suddey a happy family heading to sidney????

Looks like the Nurse's personal dream come true. Lmao.

Borgia (2011–2014)
10/10
Beautiful. Beautiful is the word.
22 November 2022
Before watching this version of borgia i had watched The Borgias and absolutely loved it. I loved Cesare (Francois Arnaud) in the borgias. Mature and dark ,responsible, and his relating with Lucrazia ( holly grainger) true love, complexly shown.

But let me tell you, this version is so much more beautiful. Mark ryder reveals complex humanity of Cesare.

Reveals his vulnerability, self doubt, grandeur, beauty, God like self image and yet a fallible character with realness. This show makes audience care for the characters. You want them to be ok. You want them to thrive. This show adds SOUL to the whole story.

Lucrazia (isolda) grows on you. From a child to an adult and mature character.

Their bond is so beautiful.

Complex like the other borgias but much more soul full love.

Both shows are feast to watch.

This show has much more depth and beauty. Absolutely enjoyed this creation.

This show has quotes from Marcus aurelius meditaitions And in the end Cesare has a moment of deep insight into BEING nothing. Being no one. A glimpse of freedom.

There is maturity, spirituality some moments of this show.

A lot better than crude cringes they make nowadays.
