Saltburn (2023)
I disagree- It's NOT overhyped
You know a movie is good when you find yourself recalling snippets of it in your head day after day. First and foremost, the acting is great. Come for the acting, stay for gorgeous visuals and feeling of nostalgia. This story doesn't feel new, but like tales we have all heard and seen, chopped up and rearranged in a new light. It's reminiscent of many other films and stories. Things unravel for Olli and they don't stop and when you think you know and it's all going to end, it doesn't. Saltburn is surprising yet familiar. You can't help but fall for the characters. It's a tale of obsession, of wanting what you cannot have and living as though you've got nothing to lose. Saltburn is having your cake and eating it too. I thoroughly enjoyed this film from beginning to end. I like the way it makes you uncomfortable. It's not overhyped. Just hyped enough.
Outer Banks (2020)
Season 3 is real bad
I really liked the first season of this.
Then the second season was a little underwhelming.
What the hell is happening now???
It's gotten so bad? The editing, the CGI, the weird shots. It's very cheesy & the writing is bad? The dialogue- bad. The visuals- bad. The OBX scenes are so yellowy-filtered. It's weird. The story is just so unbelievable and far fetched and unrealistic in every way. The acting... not great.
I enjoyed much more, the first seasons storyline. It got lost somewhere and the storyline is getting more into Riverdale territory. Just too much to keep up with, too all over the place, too unbelievable. Laughable, how silly it all is.
Super disappointed in season 3. Not even sure we can make it through finishing it.
Only Murders in the Building (2021)
I'm bored.
A cool & relevant concept but it's just not interesting enough. A lot of fluff & not enough intriguing content. Love Steve Martin in this but that's about it. I could not stay focused on this show. Selena was not a good fit for this role. She's monotone, no expression, dry & seemingly emotionless & robotic. Kind of feels like a missed opportunity, unfortunately. Potential is there but sadly, there seems to be too much going on for me and not enough of that seems purposeful for the actual story. A bit boring, the mark was missed...
Tiny House Nation (2014)
Why is everyone so hard on this show?
I was reading the reviews and was kind of surprised. Have you never seen ANY of the shows on HGTV?!?! I think Zack is really smart & quirky. John is funny & provides a kind of commentary & kind of keeps the conversations & everything rolling with the homeowners. It's fun. It's interesting. Give it a try because these reviews are too harsh! It's a cool concept, for sure!
