VividSimon Simply Perfect
Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated
Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
A_Different_Drummer First a confession. This is my third draft of this review, each one written further along as I watched the first - and last - season. I have never done this before. And I have been writing reviews for a very long time. (Before computers. Back in an age when very few people did it, and those that did were paid for their work.) So, the question becomes, what is there about this seemingly innocent Disney-esque summer knockoff of Buffy that creates such confusion and bafflement? Simply this -- whatever meds the writers were on when they penned this fiasco (if ever there was a series that deserved to be cancelled, or euthanized, this was it) the FDA should investigate, and quickly. For the first nine episodes we have an awkward setup of a typical metaphysically-driven, teenage, coming of age, superpowers yet to be revealed, story. Nothing new, especially given the competition. And the awkwardness, the fact that the scripts can't seem to decide between whimsy and dark magic, between frolic and death, is not unexpected, given the producers and the delivery channel. Although I found the pacing uneven, by episode 9, I had come to view this production as more about relationships than plot, the harmonies/conflicts among the would-be Scoobies was, on average, entertaining. With standouts, such as Samuels, the lead, and Coppola, who mesmerizes in a supporting role. Then, just as I thought I had nailed the Zen of this series, along comes episode 10, the finale. And what a finale it is! Murder, mayhem, lying, weapons, poison, betrayal, WOW, false identities, gunshots, the death of the heroine -- a viewer would be forgiven for thinking they had tuned into the wrong show. Not only did it leave all (repeat ALL) plot threads un-resolved, but it opened up brand new ones. And the tone. So depressing that people on Prozac could backslide merely from watching a few minutes, even by accident. Could the writers possibly have imagined that by ambushing the viewer in the finale, they could somehow buy another year or two of production to make amends? Or, more likely, they were already tipped off that the series was not likely to be picked up, so they figured, hey, let's have some fun anyway? I will end with this -- there are Rob Zombie productions which, overall, are kinder to the audience than this was.A footnote in time --> Chloe King may yet go down in history (for TV students of the far future) as the most OUTRAGEOUS PRODUCT PLACEMENT in the history of the medium. Which is really saying something, considering that most dramas of the 1950s were essentially excuses to sell a single brand of soap (hence the term, "soap opera"). You can almost hear the pitch by the adman, "See, we'll do something no one has ever done before, we'll have Skyler's character fall in love with a Kia, and then, after longing for a few episodes, her mother will pay half and she will get the car on screen. Sure it is only a few second of air time, but subliminally teenage girls all over the world will suddenly develop a craving for a new Kia and they'll expect their parents to pay half. If this works, we'll try it with ovens, hedge trimmers and maybe a Jacuzzi."
Deathracer I hated this when I watched the first episode. The story sounded lame and characters were so dull, specially the guy who acts as Paul. But I kept watching and for me it really improved.For me, this story had a poor start which failed to capture a mass audience leading to poor ratings. However the story really gets going when it comes to the last couple of episodes and when I really want to watch it, guess what the network do? they look at the stupid ratings and stopped at first season.Now if you watched this down to the last episode, my guess is you want to kick the guy who stopped it, since the last episode was really good and needed a decent ending.
Hancock-210-189014 I include a mini-spoiler but it is so benign that it should not spoil the overall enjoyment of the show. I am enjoying the Nine Lives of Cloe King. So far I have only viewed the first 3 episodes. Great concept for the story line. A fair amount of action keeps your interest. On occasion the show is too much like a child/teen show which if continues may be the main negative that would cause losing the older audience and subsequent cancellation. The two main women actors look to be a bit older than the characters they portray, but not so much that it detracts from the enjoyment of the show. one questions among the story line that had not been answered during the first three episodes is what happens if Cloe were to give her mother a kiss? Speculating, but could it be that the kiss consequence is just a rouse? Other questions are answered when considering the timing of the event that changed everything for Cloe, I have not found whether the "Nine Lives of Cloe King" will be continued into a second season but if the show is consistent, or gets better to the tenth episode, I will hope it will be renewed.
abovethestars I started to watch this a couple of weeks ago without knowing much about it. I just read the plot summary and thought that i would give it a try. I found the first episodes kind of boring, the characters was quite silly and the main character Chloe exaggerate on a level i don't even understand. Saying "ehm" with a "afraid of being caught"-look all the time didn't make me like it more. So, I didn't like it that much, but with a lack of things to do i kept on watching. When I got to episode 7 (or something) it got a little (read:just a little) bit interesting. But in the whole I didn't like it. Maybe I am just to old for this, but don't misunderstand me, I am not over 20 yet. I would not recommend this to people who want to watch a great show. But I can maybe recommend it if you are looking for something just to enjoy or laugh about, because it is a little bit fun and sweet after all.
