Matrixston Wow! Such a good movie.
GrimPrecise I'll tell you why so serious
Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
kjjames81 Okay I am not going to go over the story, everyone knows that this dismal effort is meant to be the prequel of Psycho.First the limited positive things about the series, the actors, in fact most of them do a very good job at hand. Now onto the negatives, which there are quite a few:Firstly having the series set in our times and not in the 50's. Next the stories in which each series has, some are really bad. Then there is the addition of Norman's brother, not that it is the actors fault, it's not. Every time the character is on the screen, the tension leaves that episode. Also since when do attractive girls make a bee line for the new nerd, never ever has this happened.
katiehigson Managed to binge the entire 5 seasons in one week! The acting is incredible. I laughed, I cried and I hid behind a cushion. It's got everything you could want from a psychological horror drama. Couldn't reccommend it enough.
shawnw007 I turned this on casually one day (via Netflix) and became hooked from the first episode. The show is not childish, by any account, and bobs you through a series of twists, turns and cliffhangers that keep you wanting more. And I definitely don't take to things quickly.Although the show is highly concentrated on the intricate and extremely troubled mind of protagonist Norman Bates, the real star of the show, in my opinion, is Vera Farmiga as his mother, Norma. The versatility in her acting skills are phenomenal, and in many respects, she carries the show. The chemistry between her and co-star Freddie Highmore is a winner. Bravo to an all-star cast for their believable performances and brilliantly flawed characters. Definitely a winner by all standards!
cjowka I never really felt drawn to watch this show when it was on a&e. My husband started watching it and said I should give it a try because it's something I would probably like. Well, I watched the first two, and i was gone. I watched the whole series within two week. I was addicted. I'm sad it's over because it was really good! I felt attached to a few characters. The boy, Freddie highmore, was amazing, as was Vera fermiga. Watch it, you won't regret it!
