Suits: Saved By A Prison Sentence

The USA network series has always been good. The acting is great, the story is pretty decent as well. However, there was a problem with the past couple of seasons that the show managed to work through and fix in the new and currently airing season of the series.

The legal drama starring Gabriel Macht and Patrick J. Adams, started milking the relationship between Mike Ross (Adams) and Rachel Zane (Meghan Markle) way too much as far as the couple of seasons go, shifting a lot of focus from fan favorite Harvey Specter (Macht). Not that we didn't see a lot of Harvey, and not that we didn't like the relationship between Ross and Zane, but the heart of the matter is the best romance that everyone loved about this show was the bromance going on between the two leads.

At the end of its fifth season Mike Ross, the fraudulent lawyer who never went to law school had to take a deal and admit his guilt ending up with a two year jail sentence that also saved the law firm and its partners from facing punishment for knowing what he was, or in this case wasn't.

The sixth season which has aired six of its episodes so far opens up where it left off, Mike's first night in prison. There are new forces at play, threats from someone to kill Michael, someone who Harvey put behind bars while working for the D.A.'s office. Harvey and Mike start working together along with the amazing Neal McDonough (Sean Cahill) to get Mike out via a deal. The focus has shifted back to more Harvey and way less pinkish romance and trouble in paradise scenes between Mike and Rachel.

The show has been renewed for a seventh season already, and it hasn't even finished its sixth season or the half of it which shows how far the changes made this season probably went into the ratings of the show.

Suits airs Wednesday on the USA Network.

Cloud Atlas (2012): No Spoiler Review

I was not prepared. Words that many World of Warcraft players would find funny given they are a variation of the infamous character among WoW fans Illidan Stormrage. But it is true. I was not prepared at all. I started watching Cloud Atlas as one other movie for Tom Hanks, one that is probably going to be good but not as good as the ones that got all the hype when they were released. But I was definitely surprised and unable to get out of my seat and away from my screen. This is one of those movies that is so hard to describe and review without spoilers. However, it is also one that is impossible to describe and review with the use of so many spoilers, if any at all. Every actor/actress in this movie has portrayed multiple characters. Tom Hanks for starters did a great performance with every single character he portrayed from distant future Zachry to 70s scientist Isaac Sachs among 6 roles he portrayed in the movie out of which 4 were major and 2 although minor ...

Bridge of Spies (2015): Review (May Contain Spoilers)

Standing there like that you reminded me of the man that used to come to our house when I was young. My father used to say: "watch this man'. So I did. Every time he came. And never once did he do anything remarkable. The words of Rudolf Abel in one of the most epic conversations between him and James Donovan as part of One hundred and forty minutes of Tom Hanks as James Donovan, One hundred and forty minutes of  Mark Rylance as Rudolf Abel, One hundred and forty minutes of classic, epic, awesome acting, awesome story and last but not least of great entertainment. The conversation continues when Donovan responds: And I remind you of him? To which Abel responds: This one time, I was at the age of your son, our house was overrun by partisan border guards. Dozens of them. My father was beaten, my mother was beaten, and this man, my father's friend, he was beaten. And I watched this man. Every time they hit him, he stood back up again. So they hit him harder. Stil...

American Gothic - Season 1 Episode 9: Spoiler Review

The latest episode of American Gothic actually managed to make things a bit better, in fact just when it seemed like it was hitting rock bottom, the show improved by a lot rather than a bit. The most recent episode gave us a closer glimpse at Garrett's character, who he was and what he is like. He is still a little bit enigmatic seeing as to how the show did not tell us who he killed as a teenager. However, it did give us a great insight on where he grew up between leaving his family and coming back fourteen years later after Tessa called him with news about his hospitalized father. The episode guest starred M.C. Gainey whom we probably all remember as Tom/Mr. Friendly on Lost. The actor did a very good job in portraying the friend and companion of Garrett's journey away from his family. As Garrett is now in jail and awaiting trial for being the partner to one Silver Bells Killer we see him flashback to relationships with his entire family, how he left and how he came ...
