S01 and S02 were fun, humor speckled throughout and I was looking forward to S03. S03 seems to have discarded 99% of the humor in favor of spotlighting political themes and tackling those tough issues such as suicide or Capt Mercers' nullius filius with Teleya. It's the antithesis of entertainment. Not sure if this was a corporate decision made on Hulu's part however by S03E04 each episode became a painful chore to watch and get through. We get barraged by politics constantly all around us. Sometimes we just want entertainment - something other than even more propaganda and politics. Oddly, the soundtrack in Season 3 sounds like a remix of the Indiana Jones instrumental soundtracks - listen closely and you'll hear it.

If you can recognize The Batman as a distinct artistic approach, it's much more palatable. With the physique of a 15 year old, Pattinson seems ill-equipped to be fighting crime or last very long in any fight against multiple opponents let alone produce such a heavy thump whilst walking. As others have mentioned, the whole emo flavor doesn't do this movie justice and Pattinson's frame just isn't believable. I think his suit adds an extra 1.5 feet to his shoulder width. Was it too much to hit the weights for 6 - 9 months prior to filming? It has a few good moments of action which are like the sparse sprinkles on the icing of the cake. That said, I would not consider this an action movie. More like a slow burning noir detective drama which builds itself using the Batman character and his more known villains. The movie does seem to drag at points, often while attempting to be moody. Riddler has some great lines yet still feels like he's occasionally overacting the role and potentially confused that he might be the Joker. I noticed a couple of the lines in this movie were directly from other Batman movies. It's worth a watch if you can get through it - I was more hoping for an action movie than a detective story which borders on being painfully slow to drip the story out. You hear Nirvana's song too often, which is maybe twice.

Season 1 was alright. Season 2 feels so winded with dialogue and drama that I'm struggling to keep interest and fell asleep in the 1st episode. I'm not sure why they aimed for trippy, hallucinogenic camerawork in some of the scenes but they created nausea for me. I'll try to make it through all 8 episodes even though this is painful and tedious to watch. I can't hear many of the words of fictional names and places due to the accents used and having subtitles on almost forces me to completely ignore what is outside the subtitles.

Resident Evil: Western Edition I don't know who greenlit this steamy, brown-pudding edition but you immediately start wondering if the script was written by teenagers who love the franchise and think that using the f--k word every few lines is both edgy and cool. As evidenced by the original RE movies and countless others across the decades, you don't need a lot of vulgarity to make a great film. Expletives are littered throughout RE: Western Edition to give the characters a more gritty, real feel with a lot more dialogue than is necessary - the games weren't all about the talking and chatter. It's a shame since they got a number of well-known actors in the cast. Special effects and gore are about average. I don't recommend this film unless you like cheap, imposter copies. Something Hollywood is becoming good at.
