Review of Mood

Mood (2022)
2/10
For narcissistic, self absorbed little monsters who want to live vicariously?
27 June 2023
Talk about a completely unlikable, narcissistic main character. I'm utterly astounded that Mood is as highly rated as it is.

A wanna-be singer who lives with her mother, stepfather & sister is bent out of shape that they finally have had enough of her BS and stepdad tells her they will be moving... without her. As she's 25 & doesn't appear to have a job, has set fire to her now ex-boyfriend's front garden, comes in drunk and high at 3am and then has a crap attitude when called on her selfish, obnoxious behaviour, one wonders exactly what viewers see in such a person that makes them compelling.

Of course said 25 year old with no marketable skills & looks like she's pushing 40 meets an influencer... because god knows we absolutely needed more content about influencers... and of course, said influencer introduces a wannabe to a world of more wannabes.

Honestly? I could not finish this show, even while utterly bored. I'm not that much older than the main character, but I felt like I was living on a different planet. Nothing about this made me like anyone involved & if anything, I was wishing everything would just implode more quickly. I've no clue who thought this show was a good idea. Clearly it found an audience, but Christ only knows who they are.

If you're a teenager, I'm guessing you may like this. If you've actually done anything at all exciting with your own life, I can't imagine this being entertaining. Maybe it gets better, but I don't hate myself enough to waste hours of my life trying to find out. Hard, hard pass!
