Review of Expats

Expats (2023–2024)
2/10
A Cure for Insomnia
27 January 2024
I've spent quite a bit of time in Hong Kong over the years and was really looking forward to this. It was extraordinarily disappointing. The characters are uninteresting and hard to like. The pace is positively glacial.

I've never been a Nicole Kidman fan but in this she runs through the full gamut of emotions from A to B. She acts like she has just woken up and remembers she's appearing in a TV show.

I have family members who lived in Hong Kong as ex pats. I'm pretty sure life was never that dull. It could have been really good. There have been some wonderful shows set in Hong Kong.

I believe the book was popular. This was incredibly disappointing and dull.
