Hollywood continually want to enforce their identity ideology on its audience and dictate their version of history, but don't you dare comment on it unless you agree 100%.

| 1923 - More minority misery. Nothing but torture porn |
My recent review of Barbarian was rejected, twice. Other reviews have suffered the same fate. Others that criticise Hollywood, and the BBC who are as equally guilty, have been removed.
Review 1 - 4.1.23
Take some disparate parts of history, focus on only one set of victims over others and emerge with more misrepresentations of the past that further demonizes white people and this time also throws the British and religious institutions under the wagon.
Unfortunately many people get their views on history from this type of exaggerated propaganda.
It's just another chapter in Hollywood's woke war on certain people and groups. Ironically being straightforward bigotry. They always go after the same types.
As entertainment it's nothing but torture porn. As a story it's merely Yellowstone with different characters but more wokeness. Sheridan is the new Woke King. He must have removed all the mirrors from his house otherwise he would see a straight white male looking back and we can't have that in the twenty-first century. One can only assume he hates white people.
The famous actors do their job but their prime is well behind them. Better to revisit their earlier material like Prime Suspect and Witness than persevere through this misery.
Sheridan needs to reinstate his mirrors. He really does need to take a good long look at himself. The divisions he and his colleagues are creating is incredibly damaging.
Rejected
Revised Review 2 - 11.1.23
Beautifully filmed and dressed streets but you would expect that from the type of budget that delivers some big names, albeit well past their heyday.
As a series, it's the trend that keeps on giving. And taking.
Take some disparate parts of history, focus on only one set of victims over others and emerge with more misrepresentations of the past that further demonizes certain types and institutions.
Unfortunately many people get their views on history from this type of exaggerated cherry picked revisionism.

As entertainment it's nothing but torture porn. As a story it's merely Yellowstone with different characters but more, shall we say, identity politicism. Sheridan is the new 'W' King.
The famous actors do their job but their prime is well behind them. Better to revisit their earlier material like Prime Suspect and Witness than persevere through this misery.
How many more times can Sheridan tell the same story? It's another remake. Aside from that, he really does need to take a good long look at himself. The divisions he and his colleagues are creating is incredibly damaging.
Skip this series. Nothing new here.
The opinions expressed are legitimately concerned with issues raised in the first episode. It doesn't deny that these things happened. It's that they happened to others too. When I went to school, teachers could still hit you. I was hit many times from a young age in primary school, quite brutally, right up until the age of sixteen.
Parents also dished it out on their kids and I received more than my fair share of beatings, again, until the age of fifteen. This was the 1980's.
The Catholic church and other institutions, religious or not, were brutal on any dissent. Ask the older generations. The people writing this garbage today are not historians. They are simply young woke screenwriters.
The point is, Hollywood is happy to deal out its many sermons today (there's always been message films but now it's in almost every movie and series including mainstream fantasy), but don't you dare criticize it. You will be blocked. And if you happen to tone it down and get it through, ultimately it will get taken down.
I used to love IMDB. I've been a member for almost 20 years. But now it's nothing more than a media arm of Hollywood studios with it's numerous fake reviews and censorship. It's well documented. House of the Dragon famously received hundreds of 10 star reviews on one of its episodes before it even finished airing. When there are millions of dollars at stake, it takes but a pittance to employ a handful of people to pump out 10 star reviews.
IMDB is also owned by Amazon. The same company that delivered 2022's most expensive flop, The Rings of Power, a billion dollars, which was woke as all hell. They famously deleted thousands of negative comments from their own platform and then banned comments outright. Censorship is alive and prolific.
Disney lost a billion dollars too last quarter. They sacked the CEO but still they don't get it. It's their woke and poorly written rubbish which is at fault. Andor was 2022's exception, (written by Tony Gilroy, a decades long screenwriter and director, unlike the many young and inexperiencced people from Hollywood's new diversity quoata pools writing today).
Just don't believe the ratings, reviews and hype. It's what you can't see that counts.
