The Idol (2023)
Boring and annoying
I don't really have a problem with the acting here apart from the fact that Lily-Rose Depp seems to be extremely catatonic and boring throughout the show. Anyhoo, you can't really feel sympathy for any character as they are all one-dimensional and annoying.
The whole show is annoying, the script is laughable and it's pretty clear the nudity is used to add substance which is lacking. The story is very cliche anyway, but looks like they didn't even try to make it interesting. I watched it a week ago -
can't even remember how it ended.
Only thing I liked was Hank Azaria who is always great, even if they make him talk in a fake accent.
Gossip Girl (2007)
Good actors, bad script
As a person who has had their fair share of soap operas throughout my childhood I can safely say the storylines here are pretty much what a telenovela from Mexico can offer.
All characters seem to be extremely stupid and illogical, they always take the side of the newcomer, foreigner or whoever else, but never trust their significant others - that's 100% a soapy thing. Also, their intentions are hard to understand.
One pro this series has is that the most annoying turns of events are over in a relatively short periods of time. Unfortunately after they are finished, you get to see another absolutely ludicrous turn of events and it never seems to end.
Not sure apart from teenagers who would enjoy this show.
Seinfeld (1989)
A good one
Seinfeld isn't a popular sitcom particularly in my country. Anyway, I decided to give it a try, considering it's one of the most famous shows ever. I liked it from the beginning, because it was a one of a kind show. I especially liked that it wasn't dramatic at all, something I haven't seen in any other sitcom. I like Jerry Seinfeld as a comedian, but my personal favorite was Julia Louis-Dreyfus. She's unbelievable, I am a woman and I still can't resist her smile and her voice. I liked the other cast members too, but she really topped my chart. I didn't like that sometimes the actors were too dramatical and the story was a little too much to handle. It was so far away from reality, that it annoyed me a little. I liked that a lot of things happened for only 20 minutes, but still from time to time I didn't enjoy the ending. The best thing about the show is that you can see anything in it. And I really mean ANYTHING. It's like the writers don't give a damn about anything and they just use the first thing that comes to their mind, which is incredible, because, after all, they create a story out of nothing. And the story isn't boring, because nobody has ever tried to tell it, because it's so simple. And still it makes you wonder. That's what this show's magic's all about. You shouldn't think too much about the story, you should just enjoy it.
A Haunted House (2013)
DIsaster movie
It had been a long time before I saw such an awful movie. I hardly watched it. It was worse than Extreme movie which, compared to that, seemed to have some interesting scenes. It's movies like this that make me search for a good comedy from the 80's and 90's. The plot is unbelievably stupid, the jokes are so dull I almost fell asleep watching this movie. I don't even want to know the name of the director. If this is the future of the parody, I prefer to watch a horror movie. I don't want to sound like those people who like only Oscar-winner movies, I liked "Scary movie", "Shriek...", even "Not another teen movie", but this... this is truly horrible. I highly recommend you not to watch it.
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975)
Of course - one of the best
It's a shame I decided to watch this movie right after I read the book. I couldn't appreciate it. I watched Jack Nickolson's performance, but I couldn't help myself fighting with the director's decision not to include the Indian's character in the movie. If you read the book you'll see how important he is. And you'll understand that last scene much better. Also, I imagined the nurse being much older and creepier, but I guess this does not have to do with Milos Forman's point of view.
I don't want to sound like this, but I really can't help myself, because the book is my personal favorite. Yes, the movie is really good, but I highly recommend you to read the book. It contains a much bigger insight over the cuckoo's nest.
Bedazzled (2000)
Nice comedy
I know I can't give you some insights about the movie that would mean a lot. Anyway, I think it made the best out of the story about the devil and even though it can't compare to Ma vie es un enfer, it was a nice comedy to watch. Elizabeth Hurley is a great comedian, really. I didn't expect something that good from a model. Along with Brandon, it was a nice dialogue to watch. I would also say each story had its unique insights that I found not too pretentious and just the kind that would make you think about some things in life, but not too seriously. I don't understand why that comedy wasn't unappreciated in its time. It served everything that a good funny movie ought to - nice laughs, fresh jokes, good acting and an interesting story. I enjoyed watching it and I recommend it to everyone, as long as they feel like watching a fine comedy.
