Colin from Accounts (2022)
More than just a comedy
The actors and story were great, but what really stood out to me is the cinematography and the music. The characters feel like they are real, and don't act unrealistically. The story is also not that predictable, and the writers did not take shortcuts when developing it. The characters in these comedies usually feel shallow, which they did in this as well, but only in the first 20-30 minutes of the first episode.
I honestly would've loved more episodes exploring the unique characters' background stories. Also, some of the cinematography tricks really surprised me, I wouldn't have expected them in a romantic comedy.
High School (2022)
Makes you laugh, makes you cry, and makes you think
The twin actresses did a great job with their characters, and I loved every moment where they were on screen. The mom the step-dad all did a realistic job of portraying their real life counterparts. Nothing is exaggerated here, there's not a single moment where you would say, "Yeah, right.." The relationships were built upon deep emotional connections, not just out of thin air.
Spoiler starts here:
What I didn't enjoy about the first season was the ending. They left a lot of storylines unfinished, and I would've loved if they at least gave us some closure about the future of the characters. Looking forward to season 2 if it every comes.
The Last of Us (2023)
A great adaptation
I seldom rate tv shows this high, but the show definitely deserves all the praise it gets. Bella Ramsey is surprisingly great and Pedro Pascal also does an outstanding performance being the father figure.
Without spoiling anything, what I love about the show is that the main characters are not perfect. They have flaws and their choices are not one sided. They are not "good". In this harsh alternative reality people have to make, well, harsh choices, and while Ellie and Joel try to do their best at making moral and ethically good decisions, it doesn't always work out.
The show is perfectly understamdable and enjoyable without having played the game.
Genera+ion (2021)
Honestly not that bad
I'm about to enter my twenties, so I am pretty close to the target audience. To be honest, this had the chance to be great. It had some eyxeptional scenes and jokes. They basically went through the stereotypes of our generation one by one, making fun of each, or highlighting the problems. I loved this.
But I'm sad to say that they ruined the perfect score with mediocre-to-bad music and cringe unrealistic drama elements. However I still recommend watching this, if you need somethung to binge.
The Summer I Turned Pretty (2022)
Not as bad as some people rated it, but still really bad
Some people gave it 1 stars while saying that everyone was rating it wrong. It was far from 1 star that's for sure. But the storyline is full of cliches and the music is honestly cringe. Putting famous musicians' songs in randomly doesn't work. There were lots of unneccesary turns and twists, but it's still watchable. The actors were fine.
I was rolling my eyes every 5 minutes, hovewer there were moments that were funny. So if you have nothing to do, watch it, but don't expect much.
Also, the ending.... just pure fricking cringe.. let's just throw character development out of the window, said the director.
Love, Victor (2020)
Why is this rated this high?
I'm sorry, but this is horrible. Maybe I'm just not in the target audience, but the music, the characters, the story is all childish and shallow. It's predictable and full of unneccesary drama. Love, Simon was fine, maybe even better then fine, but this is just bad.
