Review of Lunatics

Lunatics (2019)
6/10
It doesn't take!
21 May 2023
Amusing, funny, at times bordering on the grotesque, as it clearly wants to be. The basic problem is that it is, on the whole, boring and not intriguing, like other much more acclaimed shows such as THE OFFICE (both the brilliant version of Ricky Gervais, and the American version with an incredible cast of actors, where Steve Carell reigns supreme , and a perfect direction to say the least) and PARKS AND RECREATION, another show that I loved and devoured. Sufficient, but nothing significant. I also believe that every single episode, although it should be focused on the events of six misfits, is too long, half was enough, and this aspect justifies the lack of interest for the observer. Furthermore, unlike the aforementioned THE OFFICE and PARKS AND RECREATION, no character manages to convince, in their grotesque and social side, as for example a Gervais did and, even better, Carell, that you managed to love, hate and blame.
