The Park (2023)
The premise is familiar
Minor spoiler ahead. It seems this entry of the dystopian variety may have gotten some inspiration from one of my favorite episodes of the original Star Trek series in my opinion. Much like this movie, the episode titled "Miri" was about a virus that became deadly when the infected reached puberty, hence the lack of any adults existing in this world. So you take that episode and extend it by an additional 20 minutes and you have this movie. The actors all did well in their parts presenting the story and the environment was well established with the help of an abandoned amusement park. It's a decent effort but if you want essentially the same story handled in a more compact and efficient way, I recommend the Star Trek version.
Wipeout (2021)
Just wiped myself with this one
Like many here I'm a big fan of the original, Henson's contrast to Anderson's straight man was the strength of this show, mainly, it was natural and believable. The chemistry in this incarnation seems forced, just a couple of people (Cena's the only known person) reading cue cards. Same with Camille, just eye-candy, not much more, Jill had charm, wit, and good looks, and she was natural and believable in her spot. I do hope hope they find a new audience who never saw the original, they might be entertained, but sadly, I couldn't even finish the first episode. I'll pass.
Pistolera (2020)
This is a comedy right?
I couldn't stop laughing as the little girl started plowing through the bad guys at the start of the movie. Maybe I'll finish it, could be more funny moments like that.
