10 STARS for the Series.

1 Star for this situation:

I watch this wonderful series on Amazon Prime. It's been part of my 'Free' series through my CBS+ add-on from S1 through S4, Ep13, the ENTIRE TIME.

When I just went watch S4, Ep 13, it now is asking me to pay $2.99.

There are supposedly on 3 episodes left in this season AND SERIES.

I think it's a very unfair thing to do to longtime fans.

I'm going to pay it anyway, because after 4 seasons of enjoying it, and following these amazing characters (acting, writing, directing), I don't want to leave myself without a conclusion.

I've marathoned the whole Season 1. I thought I knew what to expect by watching the preview, but the story had a few twists and turns.

I have a new respect for Paul Rudd. I forgot a couple of time that yes, he IS both characters.

I really liked how the point of view changed, and the viewers will able to understand more of story's layers as it unfolded.

That is how life is. The facts and Truth are slightly skewed by each person's interpretation of the experience.

I really hope there will be a Season 2. I'd like to where these characters take it

I just watched Episode 3. Episodes 1, 2, and 3 are a "10" rating. I've rated things on IMDB for years. I want to rate episodes soon after they air, if not the day they air. This is an amazing show. It's showing the Truth of people/things/situations in a time where censorship, misinformation, and flat-out lies have become the new normal. Please, if anyone sees this, add them? Or at least explain what the hold up is? I REALLY want this series to continue after Season 1. There is going to be a huge void that Vice News has been cancelled. Thank you.

I watched this 3/24/2019.

While some films had more adult themes, with proper adult supervision and guidance/discussion if needed, they are fine. They contain various important life lessons.

I did appreciate the short intro by the creators of each film. It gave a bit of background, that for me, made me appreciate each film even more.

The whole collection was a treat. Sometimes emotional, always well-done, overall delightful. Gave each one a 10, except "How To Hook Up Your Home Theater", which I gave a 9 (only because Goofy isn't one of my personal favorite characters).

On this episode, that aired 1/24/2019, I JUST saw the EXACT commercial from the boards that Rome was presenting to his possible commercial ad job.

I was catching up with The Late Show w/ Stephen Colbert (aired 1/16/2019) & the commercial showed a woman going through airport security with a bottle of salad dressing. Security says it wasn't allowed on the plane, so she opened it and chugged the bottle like a beer.

Even the motto was the same! "You either love it or you REALLY love it."

That CAN'T be a coincidence. It was shot-for-shot, just like his presentation to his table of clients.

Maybe an inside joke with the folks working together in the TV industry?

I wish I knew the story behind this "joke", nod/wink.

Told throughout 3 times if his life, this is a fun, heartfelt, amazingly acted, touching comedy that, in my opinion, ended too soon.

I grew to love the characters, hoping for the best for them, feeling pull on my heartstrings when life would go from the up' to the down's.

I think that I can live with the series finale, even though I wish it wouldn't end. In my imagination, I can see all of their possible futures.

Live. A telethon to aid those affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma includes performances from Texas native George Strait. Appearing: George Clooney, Barbra Streisand, Julia Roberts, Beyoncé, Jaime Foxx, Rob Lowe, Matthew McConaughey, Dennis Quaid. Approx 1 hour.

I just watched season 1 on Netflix streaming. Sure, the story is a little cheesy and disconnected in places, but wow, the dancing (what really matters anyway) and the music are awesome! And I'm not even a huge fan of hip hop dance or rap music, (which feels like it mostly stems from) but I still really loved this.

I really loved it when the story/segments were more dark, and I can't wait to see season 2, since it's supposed to be about the villains. For instance, I loved Dark Nurse, when the Bad Doctor dances with the one girl (don't want to give anything away), and even though it's not as dark, I loved the Tap Dancer.

I was super surprised, but happily so, to find out Harry Shum Jr. was in this, and did a major part of the choreography. He's not just a great dancer and a cute face on Glee. Loved his segment, which it also says he wrote. Nice!

Wow. Anyone who hasn't seen this and loves dance should watch it asap!

If you only like films with big explosions and shallow story lines, this isn't the film for you. If you enjoy psychological thrillers, twists and turns, indie, low-budget gems, then you will be pleasantly surprised. I am an avid film-lover, from the big Hollywood productions to the indie hand-held labors of love.

This is an intense, complex, psychological thriller that is acted very well. The direction and cinematography impressed me a great deal. I don't find many films with smart, layered scripts. For the first 15 minutes, I was a bit off-kilter. It did jump around. But, I found if I just relaxed and didn't try to figure everything out, the film ended up more enjoyable. It doesn't spell it out for you or hold your hand the way that most big budget films do. This is a thinking person's film.

Unlike some of the reviewers, I didn't find the ending confusing at all. I will say, though, that I did not like the alternate ending. While it was well-done, I thought it completely changed the tone and meaning of the story. I am one of those people who don't need a "happy ending" with all the questions tied up in a little bow. I like a little mystery. I like to stretch my mind.

There were some disturbing scenes in the film that may put some people off. Without giving too much away, the dog thing was very hard for me to watch. It was one of those, "it's only a movie!" moments for me. There is not much gore, but what there is, is cringe-worthy.

Overall, I recommend this film for those who want to mentally participate in the unfolding of a interesting and challenging story.

Although I gave this film 2 stars and didn't like it as a whole, it did have some interesting moments. I think that if the director didn't include the B-storyline of the friend looking for Monica, it would've been a better film. The acting was pretty bad on that side of things. I would've liked the film to have focused on the dynamics between the man and Monica.

I will also say that the ending was a little abrupt for me. I know this film was "based on true events", which makes it pretty tragic. But what I found more tragic is that the story wasn't presented to the viewer better.

This is a story idea that could've gone very wrong. I was pleasantly surprised by how well this film was done.

It was very Indie-looking from the beginning, with gritty film stock and no-name actors, but after worrying for the first few minutes that this could mean "cheesy", I realized that the film felt authentic instead. I was made to feel a part of the community of Mulberry Street, so when things start to go wrong, I felt as anxious as the characters.

I like films that make me forget that I am watching a film. I like it when I get lost in the world I am watching, no matter how fantastical the situation may be. The writers / director kept a story very grounded in "reality", that could've been silly or unbelievable. They didn't over-explain or show too much of the horror / gore of it all. I think the best horror stories are the ones where the audience feels as though they are secretly peeping into other peoples' worlds. We get to sit in our comfy chairs and watch their safe little lives fall apart in a horrific and disturbing way. This film pushes it just far enough without breaking that line where "suspension of disbelief" becomes "that would NEVER happen".

If you like all things horror, old school style, I think you will like this film. It is clearly made by people who love the genre and care a great deal for the underground art of move-making. I hope to see more from these writers and director. They have a new fan.

I don't know what I was expecting. Possibly a badly done coming of age story? I got the opposite of that. Yes, it is about the love of one woman for another, but more than that, it is a raw and powerful love story. We get to see their relationship through Mouse's (Mary B) eyes. The film's passion and desperation spirals faster and faster and I for one, was left breathless in the end. My heart broke just a little. It's well worth a watch.

I'm all for a good B horror film, but this was the most horribly done, worst acted, most retardedly written thing I have ever seen. The sets were laughable. The gore was stupid. I kept wondering when it would be over. I have an unfortunate need to always watch the whole movie, no matter how bad, just to give it a chance to get better. This one never did.

June 2008 ~ After reading some of the positive reviews, I reevaluated my opinion. With every film I watch, I try to find something positive. I am an artist myself and I know that a lot of effort and love goes into any production of art. I try to see it from the writer's, director's, even the editor's point of view. I try. Really, I do.

But, unfortunately, I have to stand by my original review. Sorry guys.
