Doctor Who: Unleashed: The Church on Ruby Road (2023) Season 1, Episode 4

I'm lost for words, not in a good way!

[1/10 · 27 December 2023]

Wow where do I start? The story lines get worse as they go on, maybe a time to either don't fix what isn't broke or let's end it there. The story is rubbish, very childish and not in the slightest epic. The new doctor is ok but has lost the mystery about him, the staple of all Doctor Whos. The wardrobe have totally got it wrong, he doesn't wear quirky which also is a trait of Doctor who. I think he would be great if BBC were more concerned about quality than ticking boxes and what special effects they can achieve.

Don't even get me started on singing, yes, the doctor and assistant burst randomly into song!!??? It's incredibly cringe worthy!

What an overall disappointment! What have they done to Doctor who!? Shameful!

Doctor Who: Eve of the Daleks (2022) Season Unknown, Episode Unknown

Great Doctor but sidekicks let her down

[5/10 · 4 January 2022]

I love Jodie as The Doctor, she's amazing and I was surprised at how well she plays the role. I do believe the directors, story writers etc are more bothered about ticking boxes then they are about quality and charm. The assistant/s totally let this Dr down, there's so many of them and there's no bond or chemistry between any of them. Bradley Walsh???? Totally don't get that at all, or John Bishop, just doesn't make sense, they are such misfits.

The Cleaner (2021– )

Weird and wonderful

[9/10 · 9 November 2021]

First I'd like to say that very episode isn't as funny as the next but it's weird and wonderful and it doesn't need to be side splitting all the time because the storylines are brilliant.

I don't quite get the bad reviews because you just need to watch it and not think too deep about it, watch it and enjoy it for what it is. This innocent cleaner gets tangled up in these sticky situations.

Remember TAKE IT FOR WHAT IT IS and you'll love it.

Paddington (2014)

Great story but I don't understand some of the inappropriate terms

[5/10 · 29 October 2021]

Yes Paddington is a well loved story but I'm not sure why they added inappropriate terms, comments etc. For example a what 10 year old saying "bunk up", oh yes meaning exactly that as a sexual term, why in a children's film? It didn't need that comment at all. Other comments like "an exotic boxer I met" again slightly inappropriate whilst been shown a half naked picture of a boxer, Why not "a boxer I met"? Just lots of little things like that, explaining to my 5 year old what they meant. Theres also the images of an orphage which I thought insensitive. I was confused about the poor judgement of what's acceptable in a family film and what's not, there leaving things to the imagination d then almost spelling it out. Like I said good storyline but poor choice in some dialogue I found cringy infront of my small child.

Two Doors Down (2016– )

Fantastic Sitcom

[10/10 · 14 October 2021]

I absolutely love this programme. Its so funny and so relatable. Once you get to know the characters you're so hooked. Each are lovable in their own ways. Definitely worth a watch, guaranteed a laugh.

Zombie Spring Breakers (2016)

Hilarious movie but only for its very poor quality

[3/10 · 1 October 2021]

I'm not sure if it was meant to be that bad, but the unknown actors where shocking and unknown for a reason! I only gave it a 3 star rating because of the surprisingly big faces in this, which you do not expect to see on a low budget film.

It absolutely is NOT inbetweeners meets shaun of the dead, that's insulting! It's a very low budget poor quality film with some recognisable faces in it.

RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under (2021– )

Fixed for sure!!!

[1/10 · 30 September 2021]

Episode 2 baffled me and couldn't understand the choices by the judges, didn't get it at all!

On top of this shady judging, the editing was shocking and the whole cheapness of the show fell soooo short!

Midnight Mass (2021)

So much potential but fell short

[5/10 · 29 September 2021]

I was so excited to watch this. But then I did and Ive got to admit it wasn't what I expected. There were lots of long bits that didn't mean anything and added no value to the story line. I found myself quite bored at times. Every episode I was tempted to just turn it off, admittedly it kept me in it but only because I was waiting for something good to happen. I was disappointed at the end of every episode.

Everyone keeps going on about a twist but I don't see where there was one.

It was quite predictable. You knew something was happening and when you find out it was lik, oh right, I did think there was going to be other twists in the story.

My 5 star was for the acting as that was brilliant. I also found the biblical knowledge to be well studied and was very accurately used obviously apart from it all been taken out of context. I found the use of the Christianity quite clever. It was either saying look how easily people will follow anything and it's just a load of rubbish or it was saying look how easy it is to stray from the truth and that as Christians we need to be careful. That maybe deeper than they intended but I liked that.

Vigil (2021– )

It's only a Fictional TV show NOT real life, remember that!

[10/10 · 20 September 2021]

I don't get the bad reviews, its a fantastic TV fictional drama, it is NOT based on real life events and it doest claim to be at all. No body watches fictional shows or films and then points out 'flaws' ITS NOT REAL!!

It is however fantastic, the story line is complex but just enough to be exciting and easy to follow. I've been on the edge of my seat quite a few times and I've not been distracted as it's so exciting and interesting.

Suranne Jones is as always amazing and her acting skills only blow you away even more.

If you want a good intense story line, this is your show!

I believe this is the best thing in a long that's been on x.

Cockneys vs Zombies (2012)

It's just a laugh

[10/10 · 27 July 2021]

I'm not quite sure why this has such a low rating. Its just a simple easy to watch comedy and it needs to be just that.

Want a giggle, this is the one!

I love zombie programmes and films and to give this 10 star is saying something from me.

Chernobyl: Abyss (2021)

Slightly more patriotic pride than historical facts

[2/10 · 27 July 2021]

This is such a sad event, disastrous and the people deserve justice. This film was I believe another attempt to down play it, "it was just an accident with no blame". The hero's are the ones who gave their lives helping to save others, the firefighters, the doctors, the nurses etc. This film just doesn't give any of these people justice, lies don't heal, neither will films like this. It's sad the actors where great and acted as well as they could to his awful storyline.

The Vicar of Dibley: In Lockdown #1 (2020) Season Unknown, Episode Unknown

Was very clever but not quite with the same charm

[8/10 · 1 July 2021]

I loved these new episodes, it was very clever. It had however lost its charm, as most of the characters who made this programme arnt with us anymore, it just wasn't the same.

As a Christian and church goer myself I did find this very funny as the similarities are spot on lols. So with this I can appreciate the research that has gone into making them.

Dawn French was her very wonderful self and that still had her charm.
