Snowpiercer (2020)
Those sneakers ....
Well it's not the movie, but somehow pretty entertaining in it's blandness and not as bad as all the "worst ever" cry babies would have you believe. Jennifer Connelly is already worth 4 stars by her lonesome. But um, our hero is wearing fairly new sneakers, kinda like Converse Allstars, you know, the flimsy ones. Presumably when they stormed the train it must've been freezing cold already (for months or even years, unless the big freeze came overnight). So it would've been a strange choice of footwear to begin with, especially for a homicide detective. But I don't really see them lasting 7 years across rat farming and cannibal cults. I'm definitely knit picking, but I think this is emblematic for the whole show so far; loose ends, poor attention to detail.
Bad Blood (2017)
Season 2
I don't know who I want to punch more; the gangsters for discussing literally every detail of their crimes (from drug meetings to murder) on their normal hipster cellphones, or the FBI for not bugging the bejesus out of them. Or perhaps it's the lone wolf single man crime family, who in between chilling at the farm keeps a couple of crime families with dozens of members in check, because hey, he is very scary. Then again, the annoying brother with his unexplained "condition" might get the honor along with a prize for lamest acting an most annoying plot device.
But if you get over all the inconsistencies and over acting (Christian with his constant catwalk face anyone?) it's an easy watch and overall pretty entertaining, mostly thanks to Kim Coats and Sharon Taylor, the only ones that bring any kind of depth to their parts.
