Manifest (2018)
People aren't as stupid as these characters are written
Ok, the show is entertaining in a lot of ways. Mystery, the supernatural etc. - all up my alley!
...however, the writing and choices are just unnatural. Like in season 2, the whole storyline around Jared being a suspected X:er. It is incredibly obvious right away that he is undercover. And the fact that Michaela, who has known him for years and is a fellow cop, aware of how it all works, goes after him guns blazing. She points out several times "something is not right", and yet never thinks he might be doing it with good intentions, to help? It makes absolutely ZERO sense that she would be so stupid.
And Ben is a seriously weird character. Holier than thou, then assults people out of nowhere? Everyone throwing accusations around like it's nothing.
So many of the characters make no sense whatsoever. Just weird writing.
Bonjour Anne (2016)
Travel advert for France?
I love France, it's a gorgeous country with amazing food and nature etc. This film has no story to it whatsoever, it is more like an advert for France as a destination for the rich and privileged. The film tries throwing in little hints of background for the characters, but it is so slight and barely touched upon, that it is an obvious attempt to add depth where there is none. Rich people driving through a beautiful country. Pretentious, shallow and a complete waste of time.
