Dark (2017)
Downhill
Season 1 was great
Season 2 should have been the last
Season 3 is an absolute waste of time. Extremely slow and boring. I was forcing myself to not fall asleep midway through every episode.
Pity cuz it started really intriguing.
The Bridge (2013)
Horrible and unnecessary remake
I was unfortunate to watch this version before the original Swedish one. While the first season was okay (because the simply copy pasted the plot), the second season was as bad as they get. Second half of s2 was rushed and very irregular in development and story telling. Overall impression left from it was a sense of confusion, disappointment due to wasted potential and wasted time.
Au contraire the original Bridge is the best detective thriller ive ever seen in my life. It is better than true detective and dexter, to give you some examples. Do yourself a favor and watch this perfectly paced masterpiece with unforgettable characters and unpredictable surprises and dont settle for mediocrity.
Gomorrah: Episode #4.4 (2019)
Great standalone thriller!
It's one of those memorable episodes shot abroad which can be viewed as a separate movie, like "Inferno" from season 3.
Fantastically paced thriller
Gomorrah: Inferno (2017)
Fantastic episode
This is a memorable one and very nicely directed. These 45 minutes feel like a self sufficient standalone movie because events happen entirely in a different country and are very dynamic.
I loved the pacing, the villains and Ciro's inner struggles. And also his affect for the girl in whom he saw his daughter.
Definitely at the top of list of the episodes ive seen by far.
Blinded by the Lights (2018)
Was not what i hoped for
I was really hyped to watch this show but couldn't even make it to the end of the first episode.
First of all im still trying to uncringe from that acting and main guy face angles. Too much swearing and a lot of extras overact. There is a ton of small things that drove me crazy, like non stop flashing of disco lights or very dark scenes. I just didn't feel anything but the feeling of a wasted time while watching it.
Jojo Rabbit (2019)
Big disappointment
Watched it with my partner at home on a Sunday evening which is reserved for a good movie. Man...
The first 20min we were on a verge of switching to something else but resisted and ended up stone-faced for the remainder of the film.
As pointed out by more critiquing voters: it's humor is quite bland and infantile, thus satire doesn't even stand a chance as its overshadowed by cringe;
The führer overacts, tone change is abrupt, scenes which should be very short are very long, making the movie a boring dragster. Of course its beautifully set and shot but it doesn't matter when the rest is annoying.
Normally i dislike it when my partner starts yawning during the movies, but with this one i beat her by at least twice as many
Bad Times at the El Royale (2018)
Great movie ruined by unnecessary character
This movie was perfect for about one and half hours with perfect buildup, suspence, acting and camera work ..until an unnecessary character appeared and ruined the flow with cheesy abdominals showoff and bad acting. I don't really see any reason to have him introduced as he not only didn't have enough time to develop but also ruined the storyline.
This isn't a proper review, just a quick remark. I still enjoyed the movie very much but it deserved much more if not for the aforementioned flaw, or at least what i consider it to be.
