Nicely shot satire. Could be more biting but still funny and enjoyable.

Intriguing premise. Despite some weaknesses, it is a solid production that is watchable and entertaining.

Steady pacing, but plot needs to be move faster. Looks good. Nothing outright wrong with it but nothing great either.

The Man in the High Castle  by Philip K. Dick was first published in 1962 and won the Hugo Award for Best Novel in 1963. It was his first novel to win a major award. The story is mostly set in San Francisco, about 15 years after the end of World War II in 1947. Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan had won the war and jointly run the world. This includes the US, which has been partitioned with the East Coast under Japanese administration. The narrative is written in third-person om

As a prequel, it is different but is fitting enough to the Macross universe. Nice designs and is one of the earlier anime works to use extensive CG. It can look better but decent effort.

Struggling actor role-plays for a rental family company. Positive but not too lighthearted. Solid performances and measured pacing. Amusing and entertaining.

Continuation of the same strengths and weaknesses. Visually slick and well-produced. Insufficient character development and depth when there is the opportunity to do so.

The mains characters split up so this season can feel unfocused, but this is mitigated somewhat by the quick pacing. Visually, it saves the budget for set pieces in the latter half of the season.

Young cop sent to go undercover as a student. Entertaining action-comedy with good pacing and performances from Stephen Chow and Ng Man-tat.

Cheesy sci-fi action like Predator (1987). But with an alien mech.

Teacher is murdered and thrown back in time to one year earlier. Well-produced with solid performances. Important themes but clumsy pacing and dialogue-heavy.

Good art, clean linework. Tight narrative with good pacing.

Some things progress too quickly and too many conveniences, but still a moderately enjoyable sequel.

Macross 7 has one of the most annoying main characters ever. And this is not helped by the poor pacing, dated visuals and the same song being used over and over again. The ideas are mostly good but at 49 episodes, it simply drags. If nothing else, some of these ideas set up the premise for subsequent series.

Pope Leo XIII (b. 2 March 1810 – d. 20 July 1903), born Gioacchino Vincenzo Raffaele Luigi Pecci, began his pontificate on 20 February 1878. His papacy is the fourth longest in the history of the Church. He is known for having composed the Prayer to Archangel St Michael and for the encyclical “ Humanum Genus ” on freemasonry published on 20 April 1884. The encyclical “ Spesse Volte ” was published on 5 August 1898. It is relatively short at approximately 3,400 words in 29 par

Despite some silliness, it is surprisingly entertaining and enjoyable.

Not bad ideas and decent production for its time, but the narrative is clumsy.

Steady pacing and visually excellent. However, characters and relationships are not sufficiently interesting. Although expected, a bit tacky on occasion with its plot conveniences.

St John Bosco (b. 16 August 1815 – d. 31 January 1888) is known for being a priest who worked tirelessly founding and running schools that educated and looked after boys, particularly the poor, abandoned, orphaned and delinquent. John Bosco was born in Becchi, a village in Piedmont, Italy. Initially prevented from attending school, his mother did send him to school during the winter of 1824–1825. He was taught to read and write by a priest who also prepared him for his first

Solid production and visually excellent. Steady pacing.
