Euphoria: You Who Cannot See, Think of Those Who Can (2022) Season 2, Episode 4

What happened to the story line?

[2/10 · 31 January 2022]

A lot of people said this was the best episode, well in my opinion it was by far the worst. Honestly I could not even watch the entire episode without moving forward some extremely boring scenes. Nothing exciting really happens. It is like there is no plot at all, completely different from the first season, which is really sad because I really enjoyed the first season. There is a lot of sex and nudity for no reason, there is nudity in the first season too but it is not for granted, it was part of a bigger plot and story, now it is like there is no story just nudity and teenage drama. Every one hooks up with every one, it is like all teenagers (especially the girls) are W... I'm going to give it one more chance and watch the next episode, but if it follows the same direction as this one I'm done with it.

Scenes from a Marriage (2021)

Depiction of marriage and real people

[10/10 · 5 October 2021]

People who gave a low rate at this , are surely too immature for this show or don't know how a relationship works. No, I have never been married, but I could see the exact depiction of my sister and her husband. Not that they have similar personalities to the characters on this serie, but they are both very complicated people, they hate and love each other all the time, I witnessed that many times. At the same time, especially my sister, cannot even imagine her life without her husband, even though both usually argue and yell at each other, and one or both of them always get hurt. It's a toxic relationship and this is exactly what the serie shows with just a spectacular acting of both actors. I have my sister as an example but I Know so many other people have this kind of toxic relationship, unfortunately it is very common, and I love the way this serie shows it.

Lucifer (2016–2021)

Really worth it, until season 5 happened...

[7/10 · 4 June 2021]

When you decide to watch a series that shows the devil on Earth as a cop, who owns a bar in L. A, you can not expect much from the story but you can expect clever entertainment and this is what you'll have...until season 5.

When Netflix decided to pick up Lucifer for a fourth season, I was afraid they would change what I liked the most about the series, the clever and funny lines and situations, a sarcastic and funny devil who may have a good side and be capable of falling in love, but he is still the devil at the end of the day. A smart, independent woman as one of the main characters, and a bunch of well-acting and intelligent supporting characters as well. To my surprise season 4 was pretty good, keeping what I liked about the series, and adding a little bit more of darkness to it, and I was anxious to watch season 5, waiting for the same quality...

Well I was wrong. Season 5 is horrible and destroys pretty much all the aspects I loved about the series. It destroyed specially the two main characters who look completely silly and stupid now, even though the acting is still good. So if you decide to watch this series, watch it until season 4, don't waste your time with season 5, I really wish I didn't....

Two Distant Strangers (2020)

It delivers the message

[8/10 · 17 April 2021]

This short movie should be nominated for many awards just for the criative approach of racism through science fiction. Yes I agree, the science fiction part is not well explored, but hey this is a short movie and they chose to focus on the part that shows the constant struggle between law enforcement and black people, which is the most important after all. The final minutes of this film is really heartbreaking. Anyone who hates the film or gave it poor rates, probably does not understand anything about racism, or worse do not care...

Hush (I) (2016)

I can't see the point

[2/10 · 17 April 2021]

A deaf woman is chased by a psycho in her house in the middle of nowhere. That's all. That's all you're going to see. It could be a good premise if it explored the characters or if offered a perspective about deaf people, and the environment but nope. The plot is full of holes, we basically don't know anything about the characters, so they are plain, so why should I watch this? I shouldn't. Why did this receive good ratings from critics? A mystery I will never understand...The 2 stars go to the main actress who is actually pretty good but not enough for this terrible script...
