En thérapie (2021)
Overplayed, meaningless, pathetic and grotesque
I am a huge fan of the Romanian adaptation, called "In deriva" (meaning "Adrift"), which was produced by HBO Europe. It is a very humble, subtle, complex, human, touching and credible adaptation, played to perfection by fantastic actors. In short, everything this French adaptation is, absolutely, not. Both share the same character "archetypes" but this one is badly written, overplayed, ridiculous and pretentious. All the dialogues, attitudes and interactions between the characters feel fake and forced, like a very bad play, not to say stupid and often even completely meaningless. It's absolutely painful to watch and I don't understand how this can be rated so well as I really can't find anything good in it.
The Expanse: A Telltale Series (2023)
Short, ugly and disappointing
The game is outrageously short. The scenario is uninspired, stupid and poorly written, and the scope of its events, for such a huge and rich universe, is totally underwhelming and a missed opportunity. You don't see anything, don't visit anything but wreckages and rat holes. You don't go anywhere. The game does nothing to give you a glimpse of the scale of its lore and the setting it takes place in. There are barely more than ten named characters in the whole game and all are uninteresting and ugly, visually grotesque like caricatures, the main one, Camina Drummer, included. The textures, effects and animations as well as the gameplay are all from another age and so the whole game is also pretty ugly and boring, not to say a chore to play. A lazy product without soul, substance and ambition. The result of a blatant lack of care. By far the worst Telltale game I played.
SAS: Red Notice (2021)
Absolute trash
Bad acting, stupid scenario and characters, unbelievable from the very beginning to the very end. It is not far from being the worst and most ridiculous movie I have ever seen. It is absolutely awful.
