Meet Cute (2022)
Excellent drama. NOT a rom-com
I started it last night and stoped in the first half bc I noticed that me wanting something superficial at that moment would ruin what seemed to be a very good movie.
God choice to stop, given that it really was.
The writer takes 2 ways on how literature had shown people messing with time and apply them to her and his point of views.
It is a pretty intelligent script. Original.
Enough well acted, even when I dislike Cuoco because even here she's some kind of TBB's Penny.
On the other hand, IDK why the film industry keeps doing that: it's not a rom-com, don't tag it as it was! Most of the time I'm looking for a piece like this and I filter all dramas when I do. And the same backwards: when I wanna watch a rom com and I get this, most of the times I stop watching, like it was the worst movie ever, when I just wanted to watch the promised genre.
IDK why they do that. People not just wanna watch a movie. They want to watch a particular kind of movie.
In this case it's deceptive even the stupid name.
All I Wish (2017)
Very good idea, poorly executed
Goldwyn good acting as usual. Good chemistry with Stone.
As other reviewers said, why 46! It would have been better if she were a 50 at least. And the script could use a rewriting for that age too: even as 46, too stupid. I don't understand what the director tried to do, lowering the age in al charaters. Given it was all about the main character, match the actress or change her by a younger one (I'd prefer the first option).
And the soundtrack my goooood! Did you take all the Hallmark music and paste it into this?
The 6 points are for the good idea and the acting of Goldwyn. Stone acting is meh, and her friend plays herself: I was expecting a Queen Latifah entry with guns at some point.
Partner Track (2022)
WTF I just watched
One of those writers that tries to be the next Sorkin but never heard how intelligent people talk: they just watch TV about it. So every minute they try two attempts of nail a memorable line, so the dialogs sound like the best quotes in the history of cinema...after mixed in a blender for an hour.
These writers never talked with a lawyer (or even worked in an office) in order to do just a little of research about the environment where their characters are.
People don't talk like that, people don't even behave like that.
And don't get me started with the acting. Also, who did the casting? Harvey Weinstein? All dull white centered people. And no: two secondary black actors and the main character in this script are not a multicultural real show.
Bechdel what? You see a female casting lead in a lawyer environment TV show and you know that Bechdel´s test is not gonna be a problem...until you see this.
Whose niece is the writer of this?
Glee: Hairography (2009)
Written by ignorance
OMG this TV show didn't aged well. At all.
The scene with the deaf's choir director is painful to watch.
Is really cringeworthy.
Wasn't anybody in that writting room able to do a little research to get to know the communities that are not the five white main characters?
Seven stars bc is kind of entertaining. Minus four bc of lack of proper writing.
Chad (2021)
Skip it. It lasted 2 minutes.
I lasted watching it just 2 mins 20 sec. A whole record.
Cringeworthy and weird without reason.
One of those things written by ten stupid guys that laugh at their non funny jokes. Also, it seemed kind of xenophobic too.
All that in the first 2 minutes. Skip it.
Doc Martin (2004)
When entertaining meets public service
Doc Martin is the best I've seen on TV. It's adictive: I watched eight seasons in two weeks and now I need to wait.
Here is why, not necessarily in order of importance:
* The natural landscapes
* How well represented are the situations and the life in little villages. I lived until my twenties in a little town so I had that "oh, this happens a lot" feeling in several scenes. Actually, I can't remember anything similar since Gilmore Girls, and this one is more realistic.
* The script and the characters. It is a British series, therefore earns a lot in the "unpredictable" factor. Except those selected for being a cliché, there are no common places, and you can't predict it.
* Psychology in the script is not a resource to tell the story or to trigger a conflict. The conflicts are those that any couple has in front of the "tasks" entrusted by the psychologist. There is not stupid situations around the issue.
* The tension very well achieved between Martin and Louisa.
* The excellent actors Caroline Katz, Ian McNeice, Eileen Atkins and Katherine Parkinson.
* The surprising performance of Martin Clunes deserves separate mention. This was the first time that I see him in something, to tell the truth, but although the guy is a comedian, when you see him in the interviews being Martin Clunes (the actor, real life, he does not stop laughing a moment). You struggle to believe that he is the same guy that gives life to the shy and sparing Doctor Ellingham. Last week I saw him as Colin Sutton in Manhunt: is perfect how you could define with the same words both characters, but Clunes makes them totally different in a very subtle way. And that's unique.
* The writers manage to deal with hard issues such as epilepsy, bullying, death, obsessions, OCD, Asperger, etc. with remarkable scientific accuracy and, more importantly: without falling into common places, they bring every issue with respect and never ridicule the subject nor the patients. They manage to make fun of the situations around the village, but never of the sick people or their families.
* The music of Colin Towns. The variations of the main theme and the "Martin and Louisa" song are pure gold.
* Good television at the service of the dissemination of science and knowledge. To such an extent that one could call the chapters as "the one about antibiotics", "the one about self-medication", "the one about addictions", "the one about vaccines", "the one about heart attack first aid", "the one about the seizure first aid" and so on. All this learning and fun together shows the way that television should be.
In summary, Doc Martin represents the good use of TV as public service that should not surprise us.
Bull: E.J. (2017)
Jealous IA drawned throwing a tablet to the river
Yep. It's not a yellow newspaper title. That is the end.
The episode was entertaining and dynamic enough, but I really hate lazy writing.
And it's lazy writing when you don't do research about the subject and write stupidities like this episode.
Nappily Ever After (2018)
So sutil that the man who wrote the synopsis doen't get it
«Violet Jones tired of waiting for her longtime boyfriend to propose, breaks up with him. But old feelings, and heaps of jealousy, no doubt, arise when he promptly begins dating another woman.»
Really? Somebody didn't get it. The best about the movie: is not about the men. Is mainly about a woman who set itself free. From her mom, the society and the man.
