Past Lives (2023)
Artistic with little dialogue and activity.
The wife and I aren't action movies and gravitate towards movies with stories but this was just ok. Lots of emotional scenes but the interaction was awkward and unrealistic. The actors didn't need to rehearse their lines as there was little dialogue. It had some emotional moments but the movie lacked character engagement. We both felt it spent too much time on the artistic side and not enough time developing the storyline. They went from Korea to Toronto to New York with basically no indication or reason how or why We both agree it was average to good but certainly not deserving of an 8.4 rating.
The Last Thing He Told Me (2023)
Excruciating and annoying
Save yourself time. Started out promising but the writers need to engage the audience with a decent script and storyline which this wasn't. Plus the characters and actors are anything but intriguing and, as per the balance of the reviews, the daughter is so annoying you cringe every time she speaks in her whiny voice. I am not sure if it's the acting , directing or writing but this mini series is boring, poorly written, poorly acted and don't even bother to waste your time as you have seen this script before. I find the writing in a lot of these series recently to be unrealistic and the dialogues unbelievable.
A Million Little Things (2018)
Time is precious and this is a total waste of it
The reactions, emotions, story lines etc are totally unbelievable. I am not sure if it's the writing or directing but this show is totally unbelieveabel. They try to capture emotions as In This is Us but the writing is incomparable. The characters aren't even likeable. Don't waste your time.
A Million Little Pieces (2018)
Horrible writing
Are we the o lt ones that think the writing is brutal. Nobody reacts the way these characters do. I realize it's a show but the dialogue, responses, story lines, emotions are anywhere believable. For example a psychologist asks a friend why she feels that way. Uhmm. You have a degree. A couple fights over a commercial because people " will see their live". Slightly self absorbed. The writing is ridiculous. Don't waste your time as all you will do will complain about the stupid storylines and reactions.
