Starhunter ReduX (2017)
Why aren't there more haters?
I cringe when I think this redux "fixed" anything to make it that much improved over the original. When a show is this bad, you can't fix it. It comes across as Buck Rogers in the 25th Century with the spandex jumpsuits removed. It tries so hard to get out of that era of cheesy 80's sci-fi although originally airing in 2000. They cover up what use to be laughable sets with CGI but it doesn't "fix" anything. I made it into the fourth episode before I stopped watching and cleaned my house instead.
The Serpent (2020)
Not many as bad as this....
No spoilers here as the plot, script and sound track aren't interesting enough to comment on. Seriously, a 1 rating is too generous. Your time is too valuable and there is absolutely nothing to see here. Move along.
Infinite (2021)
Careful Mark, you've joined the ranks of Bruce Willis and Nick Cage.....
In making throw away movies and phoning in a tepid performance. If you have time to waste, this movie is a good candidate. What to do when there's no substantial plot or character development? Fill it with car chases and things getting destroyed. Nothing new, original, or worthwhile here. Move on.
Peppermint (2018)
A slightly above average bloodfest
Usually I appreciate a good story until it turns into various action-adventure killing field scenes. This is the opposite. The point of this offering is a sappy "family is killed by bad guys" tragedy where the parent/child seeks revenge. The unoriginality of the plot does not disappoint. Fortunately we are thrown into movie part 2. Let the slaughters begin! Everybody dies! John Wick must be jealous. Personally, I would rather see Jen splatter brain matter over the landscape than Keanu. If you can't access your video game, substitute with this movie.
Juncture (2007)
Time has not been kind to this "movie"
Finally saw this 15 years after its release. I found it boring and unimaginative. A low budget production with some nice scenery is not a masterpiece of cinematography, as some have claimed. Nor does shooting a movie on a budget make it notable in any way. The promise of turning this into a trilogy was, to my knowledge, thankfully abandoned. Kristine Blackport didn't become the breakout star her fans predicted. If anything, this s-show broke her down (and for good reason). Don't blame me if you choose to watch this and end up as disappointed as I was. Allk I would be able to say is I told you so.....
A Hidden Life (2019)
A good movie that leaves one depressed
I don't care how good it was. If you want something that leaves you sad, depressed, and for the most part, feeling hopeless throughout most of it, then this is an absolute must watch. I'd write more but I'm feeling too miserable to go on.....
