Reviews
Sandra:
George Clooney The Midnight Sky (dir, act) Warning astronauts to not come home
after nuclear event. Free on Netflix. The Midnight Sky
https://www.netflix.com/title/80244645
Yochanan:
Black Adam: w/ The Rock. Saw matinee. Had action, great FX, plot all over the
map. Confusing. Needed to be tightened up. Visually stunning. Worth matinee,
not full price. Fun and mindless.
Book: The Defiant Agents (third in a series by Andre Norton) Not as good as the
first two. Hoping the next one is better. C+
Lower Decks (S3 Paramount+) This season has been outstanding. It has gone where
no toon has gone before. They had a DS9 episode, there was character growth.
All the characters were great. Two thumbs up.
Lisa:
Enjoyed watching Doctor Who: The Power of the Doctor (again) at the Legion of
Rassilon meeting. Was nice to see the whole show (her Comcast stream was
breaking up). Really liked it. Good sendoff for Jodie Whittaker. Looking
forward to what Doctor 10/14 and Donna will bring in next year’s 60th
anniversary specials.
Yochanan: The Legion of Rassilon meeting was fantastic, great turn-out. The
episode was probably his favorite of 13’s tenure. Great mix of new and old.
Sandra
Crimes of the Future. David Cronenberg. Body horror, not for kids (maybe not
for adults) goes to extreme places. was $0.99 on iTunes.
