The Canadian in me wanted to like this movie but I think the 6.5 rating is fitting. Other than Wallace, there were no likeable characters. Mike was certainly my least favourite, unfortunately.

The story felt familiar and there weren't enough moments to grab my attention or keep me engaged. It's your typical "nerdy protagonist wants popular girl out of his league not realizing he has the better girl right by his side".

Just a bit too cheesy for my taste. And I tend to enjoy these types of films. There were no moments where I found myself laughing at the dry humour, and I was not drawn to Mike in any way.

6/10.

Love this show. One of the best series I've watched in some time. Amazing character development and as the seasons progressed; bigger budget with better action and scenery.

My only major complaint with this season and the time jump, is that characters like Uhtred didn't age a day. Some characters have aged by 10 years and he remains as young as when we met him in the first season.

I believe he would be somewhere in his 60's at this point in the story. I'm not saying they needed to go full throttle with the makeup, but some minor aging would have made a bit of sense.

I am willing to stretch my imagination for other holes; like their ability to basically teleport and be in various parts of the country within a matter of hours or less.

If you can get past little things like that, man is it an epic series.
