Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?
Beanbioca As Good As It Gets
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
llorente_b Loved the characters their interaction and the setting. Where are the rest of the episodes?
jjanderson-60108 Most people won't appreciate this show; unless you've been in "the industry ". While a little exaggerated, there are some very real moments. The restaurant business is a crazy one.
allisonmaslack I hope that the writers, actors, etc. don't get paid by word. Barely any meaningful script and dialogue spread thin on all characters. I listened to the book on audible ahead of the show. Tbh I liked the book a lot (until the ending), so overall I was intrigued by a show. This show, however, is pretty terrible. The way it's shot, directed, edited etc. is great, and the actors for the most part are great, too. The compliments end there. True to the novel this is not. It downplays the best parts of the novel and amplifies the worst. It's a dumbed-down 30 minute materialistic and superficial mess. All the best parts of the dynamics between Tess and the various characters are missing and the need to care about her too. No substance. I'll hang in for the finale (seems rather soon), but won't expect much. I also do not expect it back for another season, unless someone involved has major connections. Reminds me of girlboss- great in theory but terrible in delivery!
SusanLervold I gave the series a shot out of desperation from lack of anything new to watch, so my expectations were fairly low going in. Yikes, it's bad. Surprisingly bad. The lead actress is very pretty, but looks alone is clearly not enough. I can't tell if it's her acting or if it's the director's fault, but her "I'm so wide-eyed and curious," bit made my gorge rise. I wanted to poke her with something sharp.I'd rather watch a "Survivor" rerun than this drivel.
