History Week! The Physician Movie Review


The Physician is a 2013 historical period piece film, that was somewhat entertaining.

So, The Physician follows a young man named Rob Cole (Tom Payne), as he sets out from England to the Middle East to study to become a physician.
Alright, I'm not entirely sure if this movie was based on any true history but it doesn't seem like it. The Physician is more of a period piece than anything, and from a storytelling perspective it is entertaining.
I was surprised to see Ben Kingsley (no I didn't pay attention to the poster) in this film. If you watch the television show, The Walking Dead, then you might recognize the main actor of this film, Tom Payne, as he plays Jesus on The Walking Dead.
Most of the actors do a fine job, however there are a few times at which some dialogue doesn't really come out exactly right, and that can be a little annoying. Also some of the audio levels are just slightly off at certain points, which makes it harder to hear what the actors are trying to say.
The Physician is a decent enough flick to watch. If it's a rainy day, and you are planning on watching a bunch of movies, then I think that it would be alright to add The Physician to your watch list on that day.



final score: 3/5

Dora and the Lost City of Gold Movie Review

Dora and the Lost City of Gold Movie Review This Was My Dad's Idea Well... I went and saw Dora and the Lost City of Gold today with my dad, and... the film was a lot funnier than it has any right to be. Dora and the Lost City of Gold is a live action adaptation of the Dora tv show on Nickelodeon. Dora, now a teenager, is sent to the City to live with her cousin, Diego, while her parents go exploring for a lost City. When her parents go missing, Dora and her new friends go and search for her parents. I can't believe I'm going to say this, but the movie wasn't half bad. There is a ton of tongue and cheek humor. There is some cringe to the Dora and the Lost City of Gold too, but remember, this is a movie made for kids. As a kids film, it does a fine job. The acting was fine, and for a kids film, everyone did alright. Isabela Moner, who played Dora, did a good job portraying the character from what I remember about the show when I was very young. What surprised...

Norsemen Netflix Show Review So Far

Norsemen Netflix Show Review So Far The funniest show I've seen in years I've been watching a show on Netflix called Norsemen, and I swear this is the funniest show I've seen in years! I can't understate how funny this show can really be, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say about 90% of the jokes land. Norsemen starts off in 790 AD, and follows a few Vikings and their slaves. The show goes through their lives and their trials, but it's done with a comedic spin. If you haven't yet, watch the trailer above to get a better idea of the show. I will say this, this show reminds me of Monty Python ! Some of the jokes Norsemen  are gut busting, and will almost have you rolling on the floor laughing. In an age of bad comedies this show is gold.  I just started watching season 2 the other day, and I just want to keep watching. The episodes are about a half hour long each, and it's the perfect time frame to get the story across. I wouldn't c...
