Review of Hostages

Hostages (2022– )
8/10
starts well...fizzles out in towards the end..
24 September 2023
This wasn't meant to be a full length documentary...it's four episodes long...but it's still tooo long...

it's got too much to cover for it be a movie...so i think it should have been a two-part documentary...a show made of 2 parts...take out all the unnecessary parts and just keep it straightforward...

the first two episodes had me hooked!...it was pulsating i was getting information i had no idea about...it was informative riveting and very thrilling...but about ten minutes into the third episode it lost that intrigue...i lost interest...i didn't care anymore...

this is going to sound illiterate and stupid...but i didn't like the parts where i had to read subtitles...i get that this is a two-sided story and we need to get the voice of the Iranians who don't necessarily speak English...i get the logic and practicality of it...subjectively i just didn't like it...it was too tasking for me....

it still. Is a good show though...it just kinda fizzles out towards the end...it starts out as a documentary...it ends as people talking about their feelings...
