Nonureva Really Surprised!
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
sweetpanda8 I wish Amazon would make more of this! Not seen such a unique show in years! Dark, sad & funny!
beaniemartini I was surprised by how much I really enjoyed this movie. I would consider it a character study/studies of sorts with elements of both comedy and horror in the mix. After all, that's life isn't it...taking the good with the bad?Each time it started to get really creepy, the author (it's my understanding this is based on a book) throws in something to make you laugh, even if it's a wry one. But before it could approach being too hokey, the scene would shift and something on the darker side would be thrown in.I was also think a lot of people will be able to relate to this film... No, you likely don't have a dead great Aunt returning to your life but within the cast, you will almost assuredly find yourself nodding or maybe rolling your eyes and thinking "Oi, I know someone just like that!".So yeah, this is a good option if you want to take a break from whatever it is you've been binge-watching but don't want to end up sickened by too much gore or triple checking your locks before bed. The only reason I did not award 10 stars is because, since it's a bit open-ended, I was disappointed to find it was not a series.
mike-18356 We loved this pilot and can't wait to see future episodes. I sure hope they pick this series up and flush out the story even more. I wasn't expecting that crazy plot twist... never saw it coming and was screaming NOOoooo at the TV when the episode ended. Cannot wait to see what happens next!
Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Sea Oak" is an American English-language short film from 2017 that combines comedy with some other genres, mostly horror, and was released just a couple days ago as one of the suggestions by Amazon that may be turned into a full series. It is based on a short story by George Saunders and directed by Emmy nominee Hiro Murai. But the really big names are in the cast here. Glenn Close plays a (not so) dead old virgin while the younger generation is represented by Jack Quaid, Sarah Hay, Jane Levy, James Van Der Beek and a couple others. Of course, we shall see how these would return in terms of quantity if this actually gets picked up, but the star potential makes it likely for enough people to enjoy the watch here. We shall see. I think entertainment-wise it needed a couple minutes to really get going, but the second half certainly makes it worth seeing and it seems like a solid take that still offers something new and refreshing in a year where stuff like The Walking Dead has been running for ages, which also means something. Overall, it could indeed happen I watch this if it gets picked up, especially because I cannot deny being a pretty big Jane Levy fanboy, but the others are fine too, especially Glenn Close who really shines in the last couple minutes here. Go see it, this slightly over half an hour certainly has some fun potential.
