I have never laughed so hard in my life! This movie was hilarious, and I don't know how they pulled that off. I'll be honest some parts I was genuinely concerned for their safety. Haddish was an absolute menace and so terrifying! If you have company make sure to watch with someone you're comfortable with because it will get awkward. Some scenes I think could have been deleted in the montage (the gorilla prank was a tad too far in my opinion and explains the 4 stars instead of 5). Truly unique concept and good job for pulling it off!

I am at episode 2 so far and enjoying the show. The self-hate of the main character is a little strong and I find it hard to relate to. I understand that we can be self-critical from time to time but hers is pathologic. I think that's what the writers wanted to express, but I really hope people don't think that middle-aged women generally think like that. I though the way she judged others was a little difficult to watch as well. The family situation is unorthodox and interesting enough for me to want to keep watching. I'll come back in the end for at the end to say my final thoughts! So far it is a 3.5 starts.

Loved it! The story stressed me out, I had to check the ending online before watching it 🙈 I started watching this before knowing what it was about , and now I find myself wanting to slap Paul Rudd! I despise Dr Ike and his family for taking advantage of people like that. I'm confused with the comments criticizing it for not being funny - it's not supposed to be. Equally confused by those lamenting about the way the story goes - it's a true story. In any case, it is difficult to watch someone waste their life like that. You want the story to have one outcome but know how bad it will get before it gets better. You will get your heart broken knowing the abuse that took place over all these years. If the series has achieved to get these emotions out of you, then it succeeded. I really loved it and wish Marty and all the other victims the best.

I was waiting to see this into film and boy was I disappointed. First, the show is trying to portray Anna as some sort of financial genius for whom we should feel bad for. Obviously she’s far from a genius and if anything, she got away with it lightly. They’re also showing her friend Rachel as the bad one, when she was the victim - far from a pleasant friend, but still a victim. Second, the main character is the journalist who wrote the story…why? Because of that, we’re not seeing the story in chronological order but as the journalist is discovering the facts. It makes it super messy and a lot of facts are missing. Also, there is so much emphasis on the journalist’s life, which honestly I wasn’t interested in at all, not to mention that this character was really annoying. The whole production - the music, the comedic tone - none of it made sense. I’m hoping someone else produces a film or documentary about the events. I’m really disappointed with this one.

***spoilers*** It’s very clear from the start that none of what is happening is actually real. I’ve read some reviews about some people who were confused - I thought it was pretty clear that the main character was dealing with substance abuse and mental illness, I’m not sure where the confusion came from. We’re delving into the mind of a man who is hallucinating while his daughter is looking for him in the real world. As the viewer, most of our time is spent in the hallucination. This sounds promising, but it was a fail. This movie was such a missed opportunity. It felt like it tried to be deep but couldn’t achieve it. The script sounded like it was written by a child playing philosophy. You know when you’re the designated driver and you’re listening to everyone else get into a conversation and think they’re being all philosophical but they are not? This was this movie. I was touched by the love the daughter had for her father, the actress who portrayed her did a wonderful job. I was less impressed by Wilson and Hayek. I really liked the idea of the movie, but I think the execution was poor and the dialogues were terrible.
