Blacklight - 2022 - Liam Neeson movie

Not a very strong movie, unfortunately (I'd had high hopes for this one), but still an okay watch.
With a few minor tweaks and shortening it by some 15 mins to be rid of redundant stuff it would've been better already. Why people decide to not do that is beyond me.
But alas, as I said, an okay watch nonetheless.

The Leftovers - tv series - 8,4 IMDB rating

Seen some 3 episodes now, still not sure what to think of it though.
It's intriguing but also set up in a complex way. Lots of weird things happening without explanation, so I suspect it'll get clear in time.
But if it's going to take much longer I might stop watching cos as it is it's basically one big mumbo jumbo all over the place thing that doesn't make sense.

Not action or something, but sure as heck worth mentioning and worth the watch:

The Time Traveler's Wife
Romantic/drama/fantasy/sci-fi 2009
IMDB rating 7,1 and I'd sure give it a big 9.

Colony - 2016 - SciFi - tv series
With Josh Holloway and first season with Carl Weathers.

3 seasons, was cancelled after that. Not half bad, although I would've liked more aliens in it. Actually seeing some for a change.
but still interesting and rather captivating series!

Series Colony ends abrupt. I knew that but still annoying as season 3 was finally getting good and came with some answers and intrigue.
But alas, it was cancelled.


Movie The colony 2021 (not the one in the ice world)
Unusual but very much worth the watch.

Set in the distant future, a female astronaut, shipwrecked on the long-decimated Earth, must decide the fate of the wasteland's remaining populace.

Death on the Nile - 2022 - 6.4 IMDB rating

A good movie, based on a Agatha Christie novel. Not a fan of A. Christie, nor Hercule Poirot, but this one is good.
The backdrop beautiful (Egypt), the music great (Rosetta Tharpe), lip-synced by the actress.
You may recognize said actress from long ago, Ace Ventura when nature calls. She was the one he lusted over, shown in his tent while erm... playing with himself, saying "oooh mama, ooooooh mama!"

In any case, worth the watch, unless you really don't like the Agatha Christie style.

Travelers tv series - IMDB rating 8,10
It took me a bit of time to get into it, but it's a good series.
It was cancelled after 3 seasons but at least season 3 does have an acceptable, proper ending.

Hundreds of years from now, the last surviving humans discover the means of sending consciousness back through time, directly into people in the 21st century. These Travelers assume the lives of seemingly random people, while secretly working as teams to perform missions in order to save humanity from a terrible future.

Time after Time 2017 - tv series - IMDB rating 6,7

I just watched the pilot, hour and a half, and I'm seriously intrigued!
H.G. Wells and Jack the Ripper.
Only one season.

After H.G. Wells' friend Jack the Ripper escapes to the present New York in his time machine, the last will try to capture him and bring him back to Victorian England. Little they know that they will be involved in something bigger than they were expecting.

No 2nd season for Time after Time.
What a shame as it was good! And they kind of leave you hanging at the end of the one season as well.
Nevertheless, it was worth the watch!

Ice Airport Alaska a docu series on an existing airport.
Very interesting because they do of course have the regular airport problems, like people stealing luggage of the baggage carousel (who would've thought that'd happen!!!) but also the severe weather conditions and difficulties to keep the airport up and running regardless. De-icing runways, making and keeping them snow-free, including the lights along the runway etc. etc.

They also have people employed to deal with wildlife, like bears, moose, birds, so these don't get hurt nor cause trouble for the planes.
Some come to close to the runways and then they have to do something about it for everyone safety, including that of the animals.

Very much worth the watch, 1 season only, some 8 episodes.

Ryan Reynolds.

Now this was absolutely brilliant!
I had seen this announced and didn't think it'd be any good. I was wrong.
VERY much worth the watch!

Hoping to get some inspiration out of you guys! I'm stuck with things to look and cannot find anything either.
I'm not into romance series, comedy, nor drama.

I love action, thrillers, historical, and specific sci-fi thingies. Su(ker for disaster movies, lol.

Anyone got recommendations? No romance, drama, comedy, certainly NOT comic book.

Few suggestions of mine;
- 9-1-1 series
- Outlander (okay, romance, but also history, love that)
- Siren
- Seal Team
- Last Ship
- Taboo
- Lost in Space (new series)
- The Rain
- Knightfall

Hi Iā€™m Berber Gosh

Outer Range - 2022 - IMDB rating 7,8
Mystery, drama
Josh Brolin, Will Patton

A seriously weird @$$ series. So far 4 episodes, episode 5 & 6 should come out on April 29th.
It's not fast paced. A number of times I thought of switching it off, but then I find myself wanting to know what it's all about, haha.
I wanna know the deal of the stones, the bison certainly!, the girl. Just what the heck is it all about?


A rancher fighting for his land and family discovers an unfathomable mystery at the edge of Wyoming's wilderness.
