What I’m Watching Lately – August 2022

by Athena // September 8, 2022 // No Comments
“Emma” (2020) – This was okay. The Romola Garai 2006 mini series is still the best. I think Anna Taylor Joy can act but her and the script did not make her Emma sympathetic enough at the start. Emma is... Continue reading →

What I’m Watching Lately – May and June 2022

by Athena // August 16, 2022 // No Comments
I watched everything in May and June except the end of Stranger Things. I did not watch much in July. Shiva Baby (24 05 2022) – I saw a short scene from this many months ago on Youtube and didn’t... Continue reading →

Monthly Movies & TV – Nov and Dec 2019

by Athena // January 4, 2020 // No Comments
I was been watching a lot of shows or movies this past autumn. November and December did bring more some better shows. Movies Hobbs & Shaw – I have not seen a Fast & Furious movie in a long time,... Continue reading →

Umbrella Academy

by Athena // June 9, 2019 // No Comments
Volume 1 and Volume 2 I did not like the first volume. It felt disjointed and chaotic. There did not seem to be a lot of character development. I felt indifferent to most of the characters. This often happens with... Continue reading →

Monthly Movies/TV – April and May 2019

by Athena // June 7, 2019 // No Comments
Movies Hail Caesar! (16 04 2019) – I remember seeing the trailer a couple years ago and looking forward to it but the reviews were not great so I put it off. The pacing in this movie is odd. It’s... Continue reading →

Monthly Movies/TV – February 2019

by Athena // March 9, 2019 // No Comments
King of thieves (18 02 2019) – We watched this for the great cast and while there are some funny moments due primarily to the cast chemistry, the script and pacing was off. Tone was a bit weird too; it... Continue reading →

Monthly Movies/TV – January 2019

by Athena // February 2, 2019 // No Comments
Movies Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (04 01 2019) – Finally got around to watching this. It was on the long side but enjoyed most of the movie and its characters. Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (06 01... Continue reading →

Monthly Movies/TV – Autumn 2018

by Athena // January 10, 2019 // No Comments
It’s been awhile since I did these kind of posts. I haven’t really been watching as many movies or tv shows as I use to, but I’d like to mark it here on a seasonal basis. September “Bodyguard” Series 1... Continue reading →

Monthly TV – April/May 2016

by Athena // June 10, 2016 // 1 Comment
The Night Manager (20-23 04 16) – You watch this mini series for two reasons: the scenery/cinematography and the actors. Hiddleston, Laurie, and Coleman are the stars. I think Coleman is the best actor, but Hiddleston and Laurie are excellent.... Continue reading →

Monthly TV – March 2016

by Athena // April 6, 2016 // No Comments
House of Cards (March 25?-29, 2016) – A good season of the show. I enjoyed it. Maybe a bit more than the last. I love how the characters are fascinating, vulnerable, and vile at the same time. Claire’s mother was... Continue reading →

Monthly TV – February 2016

by Athena // March 1, 2016 // No Comments
Mr. Robot (Feb 3-5, 2016) – I had heard a lot about this show when it was airing last summer, and I kept seeing Rami Malek photos. He is photogenic and has a certain quality about him. There is something... Continue reading →

The Good Wife

by Athena // February 24, 2016 // No Comments
This post contains majors spoilers for The Good Wife. Continue reading →
