Vengeance (2018)
Awful writing
And terrible directing and very amateur acting. Storyline was absurd,no logicto it. Really, no redeeeming qualities to this piece of junk.
Alpha (2018)
Fun but unbelievable
Look its a fun Saturday afternoon movie that has a plot of a possible beginning to the human/dog relationship. Unfortunately it also has too many plot holes to make it believable. Our hero keeps finding plenty of dry wood for fires even when there is not a tree in sight. As for the whole falling throught the ice scene and then not dying from hypothermia ...not plausible at all. Still its worth watching.
Dune (2000)
Much better than the movie...
With caveats. I read the book about 10-15 years before Lynch's movie came out and was thrilled when his movie was announced. Sadly I was grossly disappointed by the end-product. Yes most of his casting was excellent, except for Kyle M. IMHO. That being said I thought the movie was terrible. I stumbled onto this series by accident a few years after it came out in Europe. I much prefer it to Lynch's abortion, mainly because the actual storyline seemed closer to the book and the whole atmosphere felt more "real". Yes the cgi,sets and the obvious non-Hollywood Euro-cast made it obvious that this was a budget constrained production and some of the production qualities were not quite as high as Lynch's film, I get that. But I still say this is the better version and closer to the spirit of the book. I just wish the streaming services would pick it up so we wouldn't be restricted to Lynch's abortion only.
