NCIS: Sydney – Extraction– TV Review
TL;DR – An incredibly contrived episode, but with some surprising moments of fun. ⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 3 out of 5. Disclosure – I paid for the Paramount+ service that viewed this series. NCIS: Sydney Review – While this season of NCIS Sydney has been chiefly okay so far, last week’s Doggieccino Day Afternoon was the first time I was very concerned that they might not be able to pull this off.

happy nice ask day! top five guilty pleasure books you won't tell people in real life you love?
hehe friend! what a fun ask!
look, to be honest, I have no shame and therefore no guilt over my reading habits but I will confess the following:
1) I re-read the entire Twilight series in 2020 (it was covid lockdowns, come on guys). I tried to read Midnight Sun but I dnf'd lmao! it was too slow for me!
2) I lowkey love a crime novel from time to time - the most recent one I read was a Matt Nable novel.
3) Someone got me a copy of Kris Jenner's autobiography as a shit-Kringle gift one year and I'll probably read it at some point lmao.
4) I really want to read Holly Maddison's book - Down the Rabbit Hole: Curious Adventures and Cautionary Tales of a Former Playboy Bunny. I've been on a Secrets of Playboy-inspired internet spiral lately.
5) I still sometimes read the little stories in the Encyclopedia Brown books when I go over to my parents house! those have to be like 934738373 years old, but I love them!

Tumblr media
Fans of Vin Diesel’s best-loved character Riddick have been waiting nine years for the promised sequel to 2004’s Chronicles of Riddick and its predecessor Pitch Black (to say nothing of the top-notch video game installments). We’ve perked up at any offhand mention of a new movie in interviews and taken heart in teasing messages posted by Diesel himself on his personal fanpage. Now, at last, Riddick is back in a new adventure that is more of a series reboot than a proper continuation of the intergalactic convict’s story.
Stripped down literally and figuratively, Vin Diesel and director David Twohy deliver one of the stranger examinations of machismo dressed in sci-fi trappings in recent memory. After waiting so long, so patiently, I had a lot of feelings watching Riddick. There’s some good, some disappointing, and some frankly really, really disturbing.
Tumblr media
Spoilers after the cut.
“Don’t know how many times I’ve been crossed off the list and left for dead,” Riddick intones in the movie’s opening. This has been happening to him since his birth, when he was abandoned in a trashcan on his homeworld Furya. After unwittingly backing into the throne as Lord Marshal of the creepy supernatural army of Necromongers, the lone wolf found he didn’t like wearing a crown. Still searching for Furya, Riddick was duped into being dropped off on a new barren planet filled with hostile beasts with only his cunning to help him survive.
A brief flashback—with bonus R-rated naked babes—to Riddick’s crushing melancholy is all we get of his recent past. Riddick is, after all, a rebirth of the franchise. It’s not meant to move Riddick’s journey forward in much of a meaningful way and on that note, Riddick delivers on its promises. This is a self-contained side story.
On first watching, I thought the beginning half of Riddick was really oddly paced. Even a bit slow. It’s Jeremiah Riddick, as, totally alone and broken, Riddick dedicates himself to getting back to his primal roots among the ravenous space-hyenas and mud-dwelling space-scorpions. He fashions crude weapons, hardens himself against venom, and even briefly goes naked. He makes friends with nature, in the form of an adorable hyena pup that he raises and trains to be his sole ally.
But there can’t be a birth without blood and when desperation forces him to activate a beacon as a lure for bounty hunters and their much-needed spaceships, there’s blood and action aplenty. Riddick is the man that can kill you with a tea cup, after all.
Yet, I think I enjoyed solo Riddick more than Riddick playing another game of cat-and-mouse against two really ugly groups of mercenaries. One group is lead by creepy pervert Santana. The only standout among his crew is a pretty charismatic Dave Bautista. I’m told wrestlers are good with charisma. See: Duane “The Rock” Johnson. The other group is more organized and led by Boss Johns (screenwriter and author Matt Nable). If that surname rings a bell to a longtime Riddick fan, well, it’s no surprise there. His second-in-command is beloved badass female actress Katee Sackoff.
Katee Sackoff Riddick Dahl
Tumblr media
It’s Sackoff’s character Dahl (pronounced like “Doll”) that really made me super uncomfortable. Women are barely featured in Riddick, unlike the decent assortment of females present in Pitch Black, who were tough and subversive and flawed. And Riddick treated them with the exact same amount of respect he gives any human. Which, granted, isn’t much at times, but still. It counts. And I’ve already addressed my issues with women in Necromonger society, but Dahl kind of made me wish for Dame Vaako’s return. It was that bad.
You see, Dahl says she “doesn’t fuck guys.” We don’t know if it’s a lie to keep scummy Santana from creeping on her, but let’s take it at face value. This is all we know about Dahl’s personal life beyond her sniping skills. So later on when Riddick is doing his trademark “This is how I will kill you” threats, he also mentions that afterwards, he’s going to go “balls deep” in Dahl. It was really fucking disgusting and not the Riddick I enjoyed previously. It immediately threw me out of the movie.
Tumblr media
The only other times women were seen were, as stated earlier, writhing naked in Riddick’s Necromonger bedchambers and one escaped prisoner (presumably a rape victim) that Santana murdered for pretty much no reason in front of Riddick. Yeah, classic fridging.
But it gets worse for Sackoff, who deserves a million times better for her nuanced portrayal of Colonial frack-up Kara Thrace on Battlestar Galactica. She has a really gratuitous topless scene where Riddick spies on her. And he then tries to rattle her about it later in the crudest way possible: “Your nails are pink. Like your nipples.” WAT.
Finally, when all of the mostly interchangeable redshirt mercs are dead (and you pretty much know immediately who’s going to make it the moment they are introduced) we’re left with the implication that Dahl, who had no other conversations with Riddick beyond trying to kill him and who is gay, fucks Riddick. You know, because Riddick is so manly he can “cure” a lesbian.
It’s a big chunk of ugliness in what is otherwise a perfectly serviceable sci-fi thriller. The action scenes have a lot of style, the violence is really over-the-top as you’d expect from the franchise and there are some funny one-liners. I was disappointed Riddick’s flashbacks with Karl Urban (sans mullet! Nooooooooo!) were so brief, but I get it. This movie was funded on a much smaller scale than Chronicles. The FX that are here are solid and the planet has a lot of dark, creepy atmosphere, but it’s definitely not as baroque and beautiful as Chronicles. Matt Nable intrigues and I hope to see him in more roles soon. He imbued Boss Johns with a lot of world-weariness and heart.
But a good script is a lot harder than good CGI, apparently. Even though words cost a hell of a lot less to create. At least in theory. There’s no excuse for some of the terrible dialogue in here. Not even funny-bad, just plain bad-bad. Again, lots of that is centered around Katee Sackoff’s character, but not always. Riddick was never a poet, educated as he was in the penal system, but fans have come to expect a certain level of cleverness from him that just isn’t really to be found here.
I wouldn’t go so far as to say that Riddick the character should’ve stayed buried in development hell because there were glimmers of goodness and, if the movie does well enough, a continuation of Riddick’s story proper—i.e., a visit to Furya and the Underverse—seems likely. And I’d still want it.
But this Riddick made me think more of Pet Semetary than Pitch Black: “Sometimes dead is better.” Riddick came back wrong. As a huge Riddick and Vin Diesel fan who is also female, I’m incredibly disappointed that the movie I waited so long to see was so incredibly, blatantly, alienating. Riddick isn’t some meta-commentary on male superego. It’s not that smart. And it didn’t need to be super smart to be enjoyable. But if science fiction says more about the present state of a society than the future, what does that say about representations of women in genre? If Starbuck could be so humiliated, what hope is there for the rest of us?

RYAN CORR WATCHLIST ◆ OUTLAWS
Tumblr media
MOVIE: Outlaws (also known as 1%) DIRECTOR: Stephen McCallum WRITTEN BY: Matt Nable STARRING: Ryan Corr (Paddo/Mark), Abbey Lee (Katrina), Matt Nable (Knuck), Josh McConville (Skink/Adam), Simone Kessell (Hayley) PREMISE: "Set within the primal underworld of outlaw motorcycle club gangs, the film follows the heir to the throne of a motorcycle club, who has to save his brother's life by betraying his president." (wikipedia) RATING: 5/10 WATCHED ON: Amazon Prime
SPOILERS BELOW FOR THE ENTIRE FILM
Okay so this is the first thing I watched starring Ryan after discovering him and becoming a crazy lil fangirl for him in House of the Dragon. As someone who watched every episode of Sons of Anarchy, repeatedly, I was excited to see Ryan as this scruffy biker. And he makes a deliciously attractive biker. And that's about the only good part of the film.
The premise of the movie (which I couldn't find on wikipedia or IMDB in any more depth than the one sentence above) follows Paddo as he tries to find a way to save his brother's life. The movie starts with Paddo, his brother Skink, and his girlfriend Katrina being dragged out of their home by members of the Devils MC. It turns out Skink and another member of the Copperheads MC stole some heroin from the Devils and need to settle the debt. The other Copperhead is killed by the leader of the Devils, Sugar, and Paddo is told that either they work out a deal between the clubs or Adam's a dead man. The idea is that Paddo will convince his president to launder the club's money through businesses run by the Devils for a 30% cut. But when Paddo isn't able to convince Knuck, his president, to take the deal with the Devils, he's left trying to find a way to save them all.
The part of the film that I enjoyed the most (outside of just looking at Ryan in all the scruffy biker glory) was the relationship between Paddo and Skink and how obvious it is the two of them would do anything for each other. It's explained early in the movie that their father was abusive and in the end, Paddo killed him to save his brother and that seems to be what he's been doing ever since. It's never made clear what exactly Skink's problems are - he seems to use drugs but there's hints that he may have some kind of mental illness or learning disability. He's called simple by several characters throughout the film and repeatedly makes bad choices that leave Paddo having to clean up the mess. All of the issues throughout the film stem from Paddo's desire to protect his brother. When Skink is threatened by Sugar, Paddo makes a point of saying if they kill Skink, they'll have to kill him too. When Knuck throws Skink out of the club, Paddo doesn't hesitate to leave with his brother.
It's summed up best by a line that Katrina says: "And I know you'll do whatever it takes to look after us, that's why I love you so much. That's why those men love you, that's why Knuck is so fucking threatened." Paddo is a protector, through and through.
The rest of the story is not as great unfortunately. There's little to no development for a lot of the characters. Knuck, the president of the Copperheads, is shown as a violent, brutal man. Fresh out of three years in prison (we don't know what for), he seems paranoid about his power as leader of the club and his girlfriend Hayley seems to help feed that paranoia by reminding him that he should be the one with all the power. He's shown making choices solely for keeping all of the power in his hands and no other reason. It's what keeps him from dealing with the Devils, it's what helps widen the divide between him and Paddo, and in the end it leads to a lot of death and destruction.
Then there's Katrina, Paddo's girlfriend and one of the women who seems to keep things running at the clubhouse. She spends most of the movie insisting that her and Paddo deserve to keep everything they've built while Knuck was in prison and that Paddo should have the power in the club. It's made clear repeatedly that that's not what he really wants. In the end, all he wants is to keep the people he loves safe. And when he wants them all to just leave this life behind and start over somewhere else where they could be safe, she manipulates Skink into trying to kill Knuck, a choice that leads to both brothers dying in the end. While I do think she actually loved Paddo, I think she was more concerned with the power of heading the club and left her alone at the end of the movie.
TRIGGER WARNING - SEXUAL ASSAULT
Another part of the film that was hard to sit through was the sexual violence. Sexual content wasn't surprising for a movie like this. I was honestly expecting more scenes than what we got but what we did unfortunately get were multiple scenes of Knuck sexually assaulting multiple men both while in prison and once he gets out. If you're wanting to avoid those scenes, here's what the time stamps are and what all happens.
11:40-12:00, can only see Knuck's face and shoulders through a small window, and can hear grunting and talk
17:57-18:45, actual assault only lasts five to ten seconds before Knuck finishes, can see both men's faces and upper halves but that's it, Knuck threatens to murder the guy if he says anything about this
47:31-48:35, Knuck gets rough with David the prospect and shoves him up against the wall and rapes him. Close up on David's bloody and beaten face. After the scene David is seen coming out of the office looking rough and shaky.
All in all, the movie was not one I particularly loved and probably won't ever watch again. Ryan's performance was fantastic, lots of raw emotion in the scenes he shared with Josh McConville, and I'd love to see him in a similar role again. Just maybe with a better script. And having to watch him die onscreen once more was heartbreaking. So if anyone decides to go watch it after falling for him as Harwin Strong, tread carefully and be prepared for another sad ending.
