(Mini Series) Human Vapor - A Wonderfully Written, Dark & Tragic Sci-Fi Thriller Series With Some Awesome Special Effects

Ever since this series was shown as part of the Coming Soon in Netflix, I was already intrigued and looking forward to it. But as I was busy finishing another series on the day it was released, I only started watching two nights ago and finished it yesterday. Without further ado, here's more on the series.

Brief Story Line

During a live interview on TV by well known reporter Kyoko Kono (Yu Ayoi - Rurouni Kenshin: The Final, Asura TV series etc), the person being interviewed was killed by mysterious gas which shocked the whole audience. Police detective Kenji Okamoto (Shun Oguri - Godzilla vs. KongMuseum etc) was assigned to investigate the case. When someone who called himself Human Vapor (UTA) claimed responsibility for the murder and threatening to kill other people, Kenji led a group of police to try and capture him.

The Death of Robin Hood - A Disappointing Take on Robin Hood's Final Days

I noticed this movie in the Coming Soon section of various Indonesian cinema chains websites and application and thought it looked interesting. Plus the lead actor was a famous star that I thought looked suitable as the main character. When it was finally available yesterday, my wife and I went to the cinema nearest to our home and saw this in the afternoon show. Well how was the movie then? I'll just get right on it.

Brief Story Line

Set in the year 1247, an aging Robin Hood (Hugh Jackman - Deadpool & WolverineThe Greatest Showman etc) was feeling tired after years of killings and was living all by himself. When one of his oldest friend Little John (Bill SkarsgĂ„rd - NosferatuBarbarian etc) sought his help to free his family from old adversaries, Robin decided to help him despite his earlier reluctance.

(TV SERIES) Elle Season 1 - A Fun and Pleasing Light Comedy Series and Prequel to the Hugely Popular Legally Blonde

Few weeks ago, I read somewhere about this series that would be released on Prime Video which I thought sounded interesting. When it was finally made available two days ago, I thought it would have the usual one episode per week, but to my surprise, all episodes were already released on that day. So I decided to start watching yesterday and finished it today. Without further ado, here's more on the series.

Brief Story Line

Set in the 1990s, Elle Woods (Lexi Minetree - The Murdaugh Murders etc) the only daughter of successful plastic surgeon Wyatt Woods (Tom Everett Scott - Sisters of the Groom, The Summer I Turned Pretty TV series etc) and Eva (June Diane Raphael - Long Shot, Burning Love TV series etc) was having the best time of her life, living in Los Angeles and was loved by her high school friends. Unfortunately, due to some reasons, the whole family had to move outside LA and settled in Seattle.
