Funny crime series
A cool lighthearted for the most part Drama series. Quite funny and with a good mix of action. The cast make the show and have great chemistry. Cobie Smulders, Maria Hill in the Avengers films, is a great lead character. She becomes a private eye in Portland after hitting rock bottom. Often getting in to danger or trouble with the police but using her military skills to solve her cases. Her clapped out car often choosing a suitable tune for the current scene with the broken player. A good mix of humour, action, good characters and interesting cases make it a fun series. Roll on season 2.

By and large, I'm not that big a fan of Ricky Gervais - that type of humour just doesn't do it for me.

I have to say, though, he is perfectly cast here as an misanthropic Englishman in New York, who finds - after a medical procedure gone wrong - that he can see and communicate with dead people, all of whom have a favour to ask.

In particular, Greg Kinnear's cheating husband who is trying to break up his widow's (Tea Leoni) new romance.

Predictable hi-jinks ensue along a predictable well-worn path, until Gervais' dentist Dr Bertram Pincus learns the error of his ways and how life is meant to be lived.

When I heard that they were making a Tv show out of the child’s play movies I thought why did we need Chucky on the tv and currently I’m watching the entire series on my sky Q box just started the forth episode and so far it’s rather good Brad dourif is back as the voice of Chucky of course wouldn’t be Chucky the sick sense of humour he has hasn’t changed there are some good death scenes my favourite would be so far death by dishwasher the tv show is way better than the recent reboot staying with this too the end to see how Chucky is beaten

Tries too hard for laughs
Thor The Comedy
Another fun and very lighthearted Thor film. There are some good action scenes and good to see Natalie Portman as Mighty Thor. Christian Bale does well in his role and steals all his scenes. It is funny with the typical humour of Guardians of the Galaxy and the last Thor film.
Unfortunately it just tries to be funny constantly, almost every scene and some of it just becomes a bit silly. Making it more of a comedy than a Superhero film. Still enjoyable but needs a better balance like Ragnarok to hit the mark.

We Summon the Darkness goes all in with its comedy-horror angle, and manages to fall short in every aspect. There are multiple scenes of extended dialogue that seemingly never end. Not necessarily a problem, but it's dialogue that goes nowhere, is painfully boring, and feels heavily improvised by a group of actors who don't really care. It's mind boggling how much this happens throughout the runtime. When things eventually kick off, it's still boring. When Johnny Knoxville finally turns up, it's boring. When the insufferable characters start to die, it's boring. Its low on scares, set pieces, and humour, making We Summon the Darkness a gigantic (half-arsed) swing and a miss.
