Review Time

Warning: there is going to be flashing effects/colourful effects/mental health PTSD/immigration/domestic terrorism/terrorism/shooting/torture/cutting/burning/vehicle hit/medical

There is a bomb in London: briefly; there is an unexploded bomb in London; so Major Will Tranter [Aaron Taylor-Johnson:] a highly skilled sniper that also basically worked in bomb disposal for the Army; he and his team are sent in to defuse this bomb, he is suffering from or elements of PTSD as well ... meanwhile there is something else going on somewhere else.

Generally speaking: to be brutally honest; I couldn't stand this film; the storyline/script and character developments; storyline/script is well in conjunction with the framework and pacing of this 100 minutes film is... quite quickly incredibly tiresome as we spend so much time around the bomb... I mean don't get me wrong there are things happening, but just incredibly slowly or yet again this time in conjunction with the background music which is pretty much constant; it tries to build things up, but still we aren't actually moving quickly enough to match whatever the background music is trying to convey and then moving on to the later stages of this film; it feels like we are just scratching the surface of this character developments as we have no exposition on how all of this came together to this point, but don't worry without giving too much away we do get some exposition on some of these characters just 10 years earlier and then right at the end of the film we get what happened to these characters afterwards in some cases... but as you can probably tell I just couldn't care or I really don't care or this film is a complete waste of time really... it is really quite boring... and I don't know if you've noticed but it has found a way to really infuriate me.

Action; what can I say?... Substandard action for this kind of film, I would have said standard, but other than this big explosion and some sniper shots; the action is actually cheap and tacky.

Character developments and performances; as I have already referenced but in this point here, because they don't do any great exposition of predominantly any kind minus other than what I have already referenced; why should I bother getting to know these characters... when the writer can't be bothered to give me or anyone more than a breadcrumb here and now much later on in the film... so his character developments suck and consequently for an example the performers may as well be Taylor-Johnson as a soldier; nothing more nothing less; in a nutshell these performances are very hollow; like Rock Em Sock Em Robots; they will do the job, take a pounding and keep on going.

This film receives: 1/10, this film is poor; now it is very rare or just to cover my back it has been many, many moons since I have been this direct; I would avoid this film like the plague.

Calling It Out of: The Bloodline are Officially Back, But Hold On They Didn't Officially Go Anywhere To Re-formation by AverageMansReviews

Calling It Out of: The Bloodline are Officially Back, But Hold On They Didn't Officially Go Anywhere To Re-formation by AverageMansReviews

Warning: there will be some censored adult language references in one way or another.

At this point I don't know which one is worse?: Sticking with Mr. McMahon's booking decisions in the hope that they may get better back in the day of early 2000's until his removal in 2024 or now under the leadership of Triple H with his holding pattern of booking since somewhere at the back-end of 2023 [he took over head of creative in 2022 and yes I know this merger between TKO, WWE and UFC took place at the back-end of 2023, but before then I digress:] where for a little while he really did show what the universe of the WWE can do, if they really wanted to with absolutely no one standing in their way, but nowadays as I have for you reference is this holding pattern of ball-manure and TKO this and TKO that and so on and so forth.

We are just here now because as of Monday 15/06/2026 we officially have the re-formation of The Bloodline, and I was thinking hold on, if my memory is correct they didn't officially disband to begin with, I mean all they did was stopped referencing them as The Bloodline that other than that, nothing really changed, basically what they did was go from Coke, to Diet Coke, back to just Coke; in essence it is all the same kind of hot steaming pile of horse manure just under a slight, very slight rebranding for while and then everyone has fallen back into line as if nothing has happened.

You have to feel sorry for Jacob Fatu, they struck a rocket to his back coinciding in him showing is worth as a big-time talent just for some time later for him to be fed to Roman Reigns, the most saddest thing is; I have seen this story too many times and if you don't have a clue what story am talking about every WWF/WWE fan knows of this story and it is where the hierarchy of this promotion had an overreliance on the old, old guard to the point where they had no one coming up behind them to replace them/pass the torch to and yet again we are rapidly approaching them turning point again and to see it basically play out okay slightly differently, but still play out nonetheless is fudgin' depressing, it's like they never learn from their mistakes and then wonder why wrestling content creators or/and wrestling fans bite back from time to time as now and again there are entitled to do so, based on the grounds of the amount of money they are being asked to pay out; I should just cover my back by saying that does not entitle you the fan base to do anything untoward wrestling talent or anyone working for a wrestling promotion, I'm just saying you are entitled to give in this case the WWE feedback regardless if they want to hear it or not.

Average Extra of: Toy Story 5 | Official Trailer | In Theaters June 19: My Reaction by AverageMansReviews

Average Extra of: Toy Story 5 | Official Trailer | In Theaters June 19: My Reaction by AverageMansReviews

Related content: Average Extra of: Minions & Monsters | Official Trailer: My Reaction Link https://averagemansreviews2017.blogspot.com/2026/06/average-extra-of-minions-monsters.html

Warning: there is going to be some censored adult language and references

My reaction: I have just watched the 144 seconds trailer, and even though the storyline/script [I will give you the basic storyline/script later on in this content when I talk about characters past and present; but for now back to our rivers scheduled programming,] and everything else looks to be of natural progression as it relates to Bonnie and her toys as it relates to ageing in one way or another and from a computer animation standpoint as you would come to expect; the computer animation is clean and tidy and well presented.

But I can't be the only one thinking... Man this looks and feels really quite depressing from the aspect of this will be the second childhood we are almost through and I fully expect that to be completed in the sixth instalment if we get that far which let's be honest if this instalment makes somewhere between 800 to $1 billion, we can safely assume at minimum they would have discussions in the future about where to take this franchise next, I should point out at this point I am taking a similar tone pretty much all; ageing long-term animated franchises such as Despicable Me/Minions, Toy Story and recently it has come to my attention that Ice Age has another project on the horizon and they all will have a somewhat limited universe to explore at some point or another; have one-time scripts in danger of being replicated; either going on a different adventure or/and facing a different antagonist case and point for one example; Prospect [voiced by: Kelsey Grammer] from Toy Story 2 1999 [Andy's world;] where just in case you haven't seen this film he tries his very best to keep the collection he is a part of all together by any means and now fast-forward, Toy Story 5 2026 [Bonnie's world:] all the toys are under threat by tech in Bonnie's case it is  Lilypad "Lily" [voiced by: Greta Lee:] a seemingly evil piece of tech that would love nothing more but to monopolise Bonnie's time and concentration, in essence killing off some or all of Bonnie's remaining childhood way before her time as in this film she is only 8 years old.

I mean it isn't like Zootopia or/and The Simpsons [as of this content being first created there is a sequel/second instalment to the film franchise in the works to be released sometime in 2027;] where overtime they have expanded outwards to make their universe much larger and just to cover my back as it relates to The Simpsons this isn't to say that now and again they haven't gone over or revisited or anything else over time, but then again when you have been going for as long as they have you are entitled to do what the fudge you like really, but as it relates to Zootopia as long as they are smart about things they could easily get just as many Toy Story and Shrek 5 2027 [and for this franchise everyone will probably be giving it an element of grace, just because we haven't been in this universe for such a long time.]

My prediction for this film is: 6/10, obviously I would like to give something slightly bit higher, but I just have a feeling that yes this film will make lots of money at the box office and I am aware that a well-known film critic site has given this project 93% approval, but maybe just maybe this franchise is wearing a little thin, unless they re-energise is franchise throughout this instalment.

Average Extra of: Billie Piper was never going to be the new Doctor Who 2026 by AverageMansReviews

Average Extra of: Billie Piper was never going to be the new Doctor Who 2026 by AverageMansReviews

Related content:  Average Extra of: Russell T. Davies statement on his and Doctor Who's future in 2026 Link https://averagemansreviews2017.blogspot.com/2026/06/average-extra-of-russell-t-davies.html

Warning: there is going to be some censored adult language

What the hell is going on here?: Because I was just about to start on another piece of content and then it came to my attention that Billie Piper was never going to be the new Dr. Who, so what was the fudgin' point of seeing her? Or her agreeing to do this cameo when she must have known including Russell T. Davies that it would have sped up the speculation mill... I mean I defended her in the previous related content; Average Extra of: Russell T. Davies statement on his and Doctor Who's future in 2026, because how things looked; it looks as if she was getting screwed out of a job role, but in reality she was either knowing, but unintentionally screwing with the fan base, which unintentional or whatever it leaves a bad taste.

Because I don't know maybe just maybe I have been watching Doctor Who for a good portion of my life and whenever I see a new re-generation 99.9% of the time that will be the new Doctor Who unless of having multiple Doctors [I was just thinking I would cover my back with that little detail.]

Okay I am slightly urinated off she is not going to be in the new Doctor Who, but that is nothing compared to my frustration over the over arcing massive problem that can be easily summed up in this one question; what is Doctor Who now? I mean we all knew what used to be and stand for; the last Time Lord of Gallifrey; protecting the timelines with his various companions and has the ability to regenerate up to 13 times and after that death; no more, dead as a dodo.

But nowadays this person doesn't know if they are coming or going, pronouns specialist; now with a modified back story to have endless regenerations, which is lucky because especially over modern times, these Doctors last the equivalent of maybe just over on average 3 years.

I mean if no one knows what this universe is about anymore, the sad reality is; is anyone going to miss it until apparently sometime in 2028? Because as things stand they even get someone in or a unit in with real concrete ideas to re-integrate this universe or just face it this franchise has been well and truly cooked and should be left alone permanently.

Crazy Moon 1987 by AverageMansReviews

Crazy Moon 1987 by AverageMansReviews


Review Time

Warning: there will be flashing effects/colourful effects/drugs/animal waste/ hanging/disabled community/mental health/medical and any references I make towards being misfits, I mean in the confines of this movie only.

Two misfits meet one another: briefly; we meet Brooks [Kiefer Sutherland:] he is an kleptomaniac, afraid of water, struggling to deal with the loss of his mother, he also has a brother, they also come from a wealthy family and it is his birthday where his father has given him money to get a car, so he gets a motorcycle with sidecar. Brooks spots a nice young woman by the name of Anna [Vanessa Vaughan:] she is deaf from birth, but she can read lips, she works in a shop, she also lived with other deaf people and has plans to go around Europe on her own.

Generally speaking: the storyline/script; it is based around is short time in these characters lives and that is it; I am just indicating this is a situation/portion amount of these characters lives outlay and that is all we get. The framework and pacing of this roughly 85 minutes film is somewhat a liability; based on character developments and performances; one hand I get it; it is meant to construct Brooks' world with this 1940's music and wardrobe, which having said that wears incredibly thin after a very short time; so I get it, I don't have to like it, but I get it; either as a separate entity or a commanding aspect. But on the other hand; it does undercut our lead partnership from time to time especially Anna/Vaughan which I hasten to add is absolutely not a reflection of her performance; but if you have ever spent any time around different forms of disability; they all find their different ways to communicate to whatever level; so when you have our lead partnership communicating/without communicating this background music really does not our lead partnership off their stride from time to time; it is absolutely fine if they are dancing or running or swimming those moments are fine, but other than that the background music needed to go and that is me pretty nicely. But other than that the actual pacing is good.

Comedy, art, character development, performances and action; Brooks accidentally steals this mannequin, from Anna's shop and throughout the film uses it, in like a few different ways, you see when the background music doesn't feel out of place, more importantly when it is able to capture the on-screen chemistry between our partnership then it works incredibly well and how it should do with the physical aspects I have already referenced, we also have a coming-of-age component to this project between not only our lead partnership, but also between Brooks and his brother and then we have a change up of background music to signify a more mature Brooks. Broadly speaking the performances of this entire cast are all good, but our lead partnership of Brooks/Sutherland and Anna/Vaughan is absolutely spot-on and priceless so much so I feel comfortable without question saying without them this film would have fallen flat on his face.

This film receives: 7/10, this film is good; I wanted to give this film something slightly a bit higher, because of the positives, but because of the negatives being what they are this marking is the right outcome and there is an ongoing seen under some of the ending credits

Warning/Disclaimer: there is going to be some censored adult language and references. Disclaimer any references relating to computer programs or anything like this I will not be held responsible for if anyone chooses to act upon it; any references or all references used in this content are strictly to show or indicate that this current government are absolutely clueless and their efforts futile, so once again I will not be held responsible if someone chooses to act upon this.

Yesterday it was announced: that the UK Government will be banning anyone under the age of 16 from all social media, personally this government doesn't know if it is coming or going, based on the related content of the subject matter and let's be honest with one another as far as I can tell, so this is just my opinion this is just an attempt to appease some of the British public and to hopefully bring back some of the Labour voters on side before the next General Election sometime in the middle of 2029 at the latest.

Because slowly but surely the UK is becoming a dictatorship and instead of holding the parents responsible for their own children and not teaching their own children about this big world out there, which in turn when they are out there they don't have the skills to deal with any form of life other than potentially crying about someone not using the right pronouns or/and anything other then someone that doesn't look cosmetically good-looking so consequently they have no value and should be shoned, the UK government has stepped in to already take away the right for an 18-year-old plus to freely watch pornography if they so choose to without some form of ID.

But and this is a big but you see anyone under the age of 45 and has some computer knowledge and spent time around computers would know this very small but very large like the Grand Canyon loophole or at minimum I am optimistic that my knowledge would work; that there are such things as VPN's [Virtual Private Network; like there is one extremely popular one that if you spend some time on YouTube content creators now and again will advertise it: and this is crucial for you to understand at the creation of this content in the UK they are not and I will repeat that not a legal, so I am perfectly fine to reference this; but other countries may vary and no I have never used one.]

So for those people that have no idea what I'm talking about roughly speaking; VPNs are basically private networks that for an example even though you live in the UK you could set your location to the US and get that version of Netflix or I don't know in theory set your location to somewhere that would allow you access to a minimum 18+ pornography or/and social media platforms and by doing so would make these new decrees from our overlords obsolete so yet again consequently absolutely clueless.

How about doing something useful like cracking down on places such as OnlyFans, you know having 17-year-old girls, waiting to turn 18 so they can spread their legs and take lots of penis and semen or/and vagina, to make lots of money and become the next Bonnie Blue, whilst simultaneously contributing to the mental health and loneliness epidemic; whilst women are exploiting this as for someone like myself I have repeatedly and consistently been reminded the only way I will ever have any form of sex again be it virtually or not is by paying for it which is absolutely fudgin' hilarious [obviously I am being heavily sarcastic] if you were to think about it for two seconds, from the perspective of; so I have to put in a lot of information to watch 18+ pornography, to apparently protect children as young somewhere between 12-17-year-olds; but they themselves have come on to an 18-year-old plus website looking for sexual release; but no one's blaming the parents for not using child lock on their Internet search.

But on adult websites as soon as they turn 18 they can prostitute themselves as much as they like on any adult platform, they clearly don't see in essence what they are doing and this government are allowing to do is to repeat the cycle for the next generation and so on and so forth, but the ironic thing is; the real life form of prostitution is illegal in the UK, and for those people that say I am not prostituting myself on these sexual websites; if you are getting paid for sexual gratification of another person and yourself; you are a prostitute, nothing more nothing less and don't make me laugh about calling yourself an entrepreneur, you are a prostitute plain and simple.

Finally just out of interest; you may be wondering why the UK government hasn't gone after somewhere like OnlyFans; it's because in one way or another they pay a lot of tax to the UK, so I will leave this content on this point; don't be misguided that this government is trying to protect those under 18, because as far as I can tell they won't try and stem the flow of newly turned adults from joining places like this, because of the amount of money the government can make so by definition they are hypocrites.

Hidden Agenda 2001 by AverageMansReviews

Hidden Agenda 2001 by AverageMansReviews


Review Time

Warning: there is going to be flashing effects/colourful effects/shooting/burning/torture/drowning/medical

Daedalus network,: briefly; we meet the creator of this mainframe which is designed to give new identities and previous ones secret; former NSA Agent Jason Price [Dolph Lundgren:] other than creating this network he and consequently his little group work for very lucrative contracts, but eventually they take this case after the death of Price's best friend.

Generally speaking: the storyline/script is something solid and good, but having said all of this; the execution is far from the best as roughly speaking this film goes on for 94 minutes and man it is ridiculously slow and what is it with these turning effects roughly just 90° angle; I don't get it, it brings nothing of positivity to the film, all it does is bring confusion as in what the hell was that? I mean I get the slow motion effects sometimes used in this film with the martial arts sequences; because that was filmmaking in the early 2000's for you and not forgetting this sometimes used background music of alternative techno or some kind of music like that.

Action and art ; as I was saying we have martial arts, including but not limited to our lead character Price torturing someone for information; by drowning them until they gave up the information by pushing ahead underneath the water in this fish tank and later on in one way or another we have some snow in some scenes/sequences.

Character developments and performances; they are both solid versions of what they were going for here; solid character types to go with solid performances to create solid chemistry.

This film receives: 4/10, this film is mixed; it is just really, really slow and consequently this project gets given this mark, I hasten to add that one point or another it was looking at a slightly higher mark, because on the whole it doesn't claim to be anything other than what it is; which is a crime, investigations and action movie; but man it definitely needed a rocket behind it, because with some speed/momentum behind it; this film could have been good, instead of being left very high and very dry.
