Russel Hill

An absolute RIOT of a film. The first half and the second half are very different. At times I was thinking wtf is going on here and other times I was thinking this is just stupid. By the end, I was truly blown away. There has been a very distinct lack of innovation in modern cinema of late and this film has given me a new optimism for the future of Hollywood. This was a bold move in a stale game. It's not perfect but it's fun. Creative script, engaging progression, talented cast, no pandering to 'modern audiences'. Honestly, very refreshing. I'm really not a horror fan but this was great.

Despite some minor flaws this is one of the best shows to come out in the last couple of years. Great cast. good tension, decent story... Definitely some really edgy moments that had me gripped. I'm not really a huge fan of the whole bad guys as protagonist thing but this is done really well. Only 2 episodes so far but I'm invested. A refreshing change to the claptrap we've been getting for years out of major studios.

I made it about 3 quarters through the first episode. Agatha as a detective was marginally more interesting than Agatha as a 'witch'. This show could have worked if it was pitched at pre-teens since it feels like it was written by persons of that age group. The dialogue is particularly immature and the performances are painfully puerile and exaggerated. Some of the actors in this have done good work elsewhere but surely must feel embarrassed to see themselves in this finished product. I can't get my 13 year old niece to watch it for me, she just says it's 'cringe af'. I wish the obscene amounts of money spent on this could have been spent on feeding the hungry or promoting peace or something useful to humanity.

I'd rather play Dark Forces 2 or X-wing vs Tie-Fighter. This game is more of the same crap from these studios lately. It does look great but the gameplay and story are garbage. The NPCs are awful, Goldeneye on the n64 puts them to shame. It badly needs a player creator and multi-class system to even have a chance of being a decent game. But even then, the story is pants. The environments do look amazing, whoever worked on those did real good. But everything else is just pants.

I made it through 1.25 episodes of this utter garbage. It made me want to sever all ties with civilisation.

Despite some pleasing aesthetics this show is utter garbage. Terribly written, flatly acted. If it was specifically aimed at children I would maybe give it another star.

I thought I was watching a documentary but it turned out just to be an incorrectly listed fantasy/pseudohistorical drama. If it had been properly listed in the fantasy or drama categories, my score would still be the same. I don't understand how people rationalise pouring truckloads of cash into this absolute garbage when there are so many thirsty/hungry/destitute people out there. I wasn't that impressed with Lyndsey Marshal's Cleopatra in 'Rome' but after seeing this, I have revised that opinion.
