That Riviera Touch (1966)

Classic Eric & Ernie

[8/10 · 26 December 2021]

1966 classic Eric and Ernie. For the those of us that love the duo it's brilliant. Typical comedy from the 1960's. If you don't like this family fun then I just don't know.

No Time to Die (2021)

A sad finale for Craig

[5/10 · 25 December 2021]

I'm sorry to say this is a poorest Daniel Craig Bond film, not because of his acting, purely on script and new characters. Rami Malek is the least convincing Bond villain since Christopher Walker as Max Zorin. As for Lashana Lynch, sorry shockingly bad acting. The franchise is in jeopardy, I hope they think very carefully on the way forward. The real sad thing is, everybody on the island was dead, Bond could have left went home and a task force could have come in anytime and cleared up. Really bad script really bad.

Absolutely bad.

I've watched the complete series, this is appalling. I've defended Nicola Walker in my previous reviews, but I'm sorry, she must accept some responsibility for this disjointed rubbish.

Annika (2021– )

Awful

[1/10 · 15 September 2021]

I've now watched several episodes. The script, continuity, plots and supporting characters (no reflection on the actors) are truly awful. A poor reflection on the radio series. Nicola Walker is its only saving grace.

Next Week On Annika

[1/10 · 31 August 2021]

Someone is murdered, Annika has family issues, talks to the screen and the murdered confesses, hardly Miss Marple.

Stillwater (2021)

Well worth a watch

[8/10 · 28 August 2021]

You know what, if you're fed up with CGI, Bombs, ass kicking, etc and just want to watch a film with good actors and a simple story, watch this. I really enjoyed it.

Annika (2021– )

Not quite there.

[1/10 · 28 August 2021]

I really like Nicola Walker. She and the cinematography are very good. Now as for everything else, not so good, the story lines are weak, the support characters are weak, the whole idea of a Scottish Marine Homicide Unit is ludicrous. A poor attempt at Scandinavian Noir.

The Courier (2020)

Great show

[9/10 · 22 August 2021]

A true story, beautifully made. Cold War espionage at its best.

F9: The Fast Saga (2021)

Worst one yet

[3/10 · 22 August 2021]

Folks, plenty of action, story line awful, the back story coverage is pitiful. How they are going to make the 10th is beyond me.

Bloodlands (2021–2022)

Poor attempt at noir.

[3/10 · 15 March 2021]

Just watched series/season 1 of this drama. It was poorly conceived, poorly written and directed which was disappointing considering the talent involved. The characters portrayed were weak, again disappointing considering the quality of actors. The actual plot had gapping holes. I would advise giving it a miss.

Highlander (1986)

A trail blazer of 1980's fantasy

[10/10 · 9 May 2020]

This is an iconic 1980's fantasy film with a Queen sound track, what's not to like.

A Christmas Carol (2019)

Very forgettable

[4/10 · 25 December 2019]

In the book and other adaptations Scrooge's acts were in the whole forgivable but in this adaptation they were not, so it defeats the purpose. Poor writing. Good acting.

Manifest (2018–2023)

Jumbled up rubbish

[2/10 · 5 November 2019]

Folks I could write a long protracted explanation as to why this series is crap, but you know what...watch it, you'll agree!!!!!!

John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum (2019)

Actiontatic

[9/10 · 30 June 2019]

He kills people that shot his dog, he then just kills bad people and now he just wants to stay alive......which means he kills bad people. What's not to like. Great film.

Local Hero (1983)

Classic show

[9/10 · 26 June 2019]

This is a wonderful film, outstanding performance by all actors, probably one of the top five sound tracks of all time. A must watch.

The Sweeney (2012)

An abomination

[1/10 · 26 April 2019]

This is perhaps the worst film I've ever seen. It is completely an insult to the original series, concept and acting ability. The production team of this film should hand their head in shame.

Avengers: Endgame (2019)

A fitting finale

[10/10 · 25 April 2019]

This film has it all, action, laughs and the occasional tear. There is very little to complain about this very well though out end to the Avengers series.

Still Game (2002–2019)

Belly laughing all the way

[10/10 · 10 February 2019]

There is no need for a lengthy review, this is simply magnificent.

Ocean's Eight (2018)

Utter rubbish

[1/10 · 1 February 2019]

There has seldom been a more pointless, uninteresting ripoff of any film franchise yet. Girlpower, I don't think so.

Bohemian Rhapsody (2018)

Queen lovers delight

[10/10 · 17 November 2018]

Simply superb film, the casting was extraordinary.
