Scanialara You won't be disappointed!

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
carl-more-in-than-out-of-body Very very classy smart show, Falling Water (fall 2016 USA Network) really pulls me in with sympathetic diverse characters, exceptionally intelligent dialogue, beautiful cinematography, deep psychological plotting, and crackling cultural references from art to philosophy (i get the obscure ones too, including Dr. Caligari and upstate NY's burned over district). I'm so relieved that the show was *not* as horror shock oriented as the pilot, crafted to no doubt catch attention. And I'm delighted that the characters became increasingly relationship oriented where no one is good or bad, only conflicted. The most obvious ingredient missing that the writers needed to showcase is real dream interpreting - how can you have a series about dreams with minimal symbolism that no one talks about? Symbolic interpreting is where life gets really poignant and interesting and mind-bending, not the traditional reliance on billionaire conspiracies and magic kids that everyone's looking for. Those features don't make the show good or bad, only familiar.Humanity is desperately confused as it evolves, and endless superhero memes are barely touching the real deep angst that we're all going through. This show has a historic shot at hitting the mark of everyone's thrill and torment at transcendent self-discovery, thus becoming the touchstone that the producers hoped for. Kudos to the dream study commissioned in tandem with the debut, that was a bold and brilliant step into the future! (search online for "a new study finds why some of us may dream better than others") Thank you to everyone involved, because even if it never gets past one season Falling Water is a milestone to remember. Critics that dismiss this as just another "confuse them and they will come" Lost-knockoff are disappointingly missing the point, and I know I'm not the only one who knows the real score. Pleasant or not, dreams *mean* something important. Pleasant dreaming!
navtec I enjoyed this show from the beginning. I admit I seek out anything that critics are calling slow or complicated. I do enjoy simple, brainless TV like People of Earth where characters are the draw.The story line was simple throughout. The journey through it made it worthwhile. I enjoy seeing new and unique ideas (at least to me) no matter how bad the presentation. Here the production values are high and the sets well integrated. I thought the subdued acting/direction fit the dream state.The only thing I have to say about the finale was that I was left with a much different feeling about the boy than when he was first introduced. I hope there is a second season.
SnoopyStyle Burton (David Ajala) is the head of security for the Firm dreaming of The Woman in Red (Anna Wood). Tess (Lizzie Brocheré) dreams of giving birth but she can't remember and there are no records of it. Taka (Will Yun Lee) is a NYPD detective with a catatonic mother. These three strangers have collective dreams which connect them to each other and a conspiracy cult about a boy with mysterious worldwide implications. Bill Boerg (Zak Orth) is a rich mystery man who is interested in Tess.It's a lot of dreams without the imaginative visual intensity of Inception. A good chunk of the show exists in the dreamworld but the TV budget is not up to the task. It's a mystery but at some point, it becomes infuriating. It takes too long to explain anything. It doesn't have any thrills. There is some tension and I do like the actors. I gave it a college try and finished the first season. With so much TV in the world today, this one doesn't make the cut.ADD I actually gave it a post graduate try. The second season didn't improve my impression of the show. Taka's mother does have a great death scene but it's one scene out of one season. It's not enough. I appreciate the attempt but I am reluctant to recommend this for anyone.
namob-43673 This review is based only on the first 2 episodes and so things can change, but so far this has me intrigued.The show is twin-peaks+666Park Avenue mixed together in a dream-world in a big City environment with strange bewildering music. In other words this is not for everyone. I think most people will end up on one or the other side; you either love it, or you hate it.The acting great, it has to be otherwise this type of show cannot work. The directing great, light, music, pretty much everything about this show is great, but it is also weird, strange, and really out there.The first 5min or so of the 1st episode my mind went from "crap", to "what the hell is this?" to "crap" again, but for some reason I kept watching and the more I watched the more the show sucked me in.I have added this to my follow-list, but I have to admit that I've not yet made up my mind if this really is crap or completely amazing, but few TV shows can suck me in and keep me guessing, wondering, thinking and keep watching like this one can.This can end up being one of the most amazing best shows of all time, or it can crash and become boring and just weird in general. The coming episodes will tell.
