Dexter: New Blood: Sins of the Father (2022)
Didn't realize Stephen King was a ghostwriter for Dexter
I've never enjoyed a story so much and then gotten to the end and been left with that feeling of 'what in the hell just happened?' more than while reading a Stephen King book and watching Dexter! This episode was heading in just the right direction, Dexter was about to finally have to answer for everything he did. Every right, every wrong, it was his chance to let the world know 'Who Is Dexter Morgan'. And then the episode takes a left turn and never finds its footing again. Instead of finally facing all the destruction he caused, finally having a voice and being able to be free with the truth of who he is, we get a desperate criminal on the run trying once again to start over and not face his punishment. Instead of running away, however, he is confronted by the one person he felt he could truly be himself with. Finding himself on the wrong end of a rifle he is forced to face all the despicable things he did to those he cared for over the years, the 'friends' he murdered, the loved ones he let down, he has just enough time time think about all of it and so then does he stop? No. He turns to his own son who he has been trying to save and convinces him to murder him so that he can once again avoid any real consequences for his actions! If Dexter believed in what he was doing so much, should he not have owned up to his crimes? Didn't he owe it To Angel and Chief Bishop to help them understand what he was all about? I feel the writers took the cheap way out by letting Dexter die that way, he should have been made to face what he did, give some closure to everyone he affected. In the end, Dexter Morgan had to face some kind of judgment for all his misdeeds but I just feel watching a man waste away on death row, losing contact with everyone he cared about, forced to sit and contemplate everything he ever did would have made for a much better ending, but, at least Dexter Morgan is finally done. Though not a satisfying, at least for me, ending, it is still and actual ending this go around.
FML (2016)
A great buddy movie
Hilarity ensues. FML introduces you to Sam (Jason Nash), a 40 year old trying to make it in the world of social media, a world dominated by millennials, and Henry (Brandon Calvillo), a 19 year old virgin social media star who just wants to get away from his crazy family and meet a girl. After realizing they need each other to fulfill their dreams, they embark on a cross country road trip which introduces them to shady business men, social misfits, internet sellouts, and all kinds of crazy characters along the way. It is a movie that will make you laugh, make you think, and may even tug at your heartstrings just a little. Highly recommended comedy for teens and up.
