I don't ask a lot from a film - or series in this case. All I ask for is a realistic, believable plot, characters with real strengths and weaknesses, conflict and conclusion. Sadly, that's a big ask for most movies these days.
I had no expectations of Apples Never Fall other than some engaging cinematography. But I was pleasantly surprised when it was all over. Although, I admit that I nearly didn't watch the last episode after the set up. But I'm very glad I did. Here is what I got for my patience: A believable story (for the most part), at least six characters with a clear character arc, conflict that shifted slightly with ever telling of the story and a very satisfying resolution (even if it depended on a trope which I could have done without). I don't ask much. All expectations were met.
