In the realm of spy and action dramas, "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" (2024) stands out as clearly a triumph, skillfully reimagining the classic narrative with a fresh perspective. This short series, inspired by its predecessor, not only captivatesd me with stellar performances and undeniable on-screen chemistry but also presents a masterful blend of intricate storytelling, original writing, and inspired cinematography. The chemistry of Donald and maya is gosh darned incredible too, the emotions they convey peirce your soul and makes you relate their situation with your own life, (which is no mean feat considering they're literally spies) As the story unfolds, it becomes evident that the writing is nothing short of exceptional, weaving complex themes seamlessly into the storyline. The culmination in the final episode is a testament to the writers' and directors prowess, being perhaps one of the best final episodes of a short series i have ever seen. However, it's disheartening to note that, despite the series' artistic achievements, a segment of the audience remains fixated on irrelevant prejudices. Some fans of the original film, with a regrettably narrow-minded perspective, dismiss the value of this reimagining due to the the cast of donald and maya not being the white aryan studs they're used to. Such attitudes undermine the essence of art, perpetuating an exclusionary view that is antithetical to the spirit of creativity, and misrepresents the vlaue of the art entirely.

The acting... is so great. It is literally the best acting I've ever seen in a movie. It's so realistic and down to earth it feels like someone just put a camera in real life. The story and scenes feel so real and the fact that they tackle issues that teenagers go through that are never seen in glamourous and romantic coming of age movies usually put on by netlix, It's truly a breath of fresh air. I cant believe how amazing the acting from the scenes of the little brother(D'angelou Osei Kissiedu) crying out for his mother to Rocks friend Sumaya (Kosar Ali) getting into fights. It all hits on the head everything you'd expect to experience in a real life interaction. Their performances can't be overstated. All in all a total recommendation, a sort of breath of fresh air and a great insight into a side of storytelling we don't see too often in movies.

It really is a briliant movie, but it feels like it ends so early. SO prematurely. When the movie just gets started, it already ends. I actually yelped when the ending credits came on at just 1h 20mins becuase it felt like the movie was half done. The ending doesn't feel rushed, just literally like the movie wasn't complete. The whole time it's setting you up for a process you're invested in and before you can get any sense oh wholesomeness the movie is over. Now that being said, what there is of the movie, is amazing! Great acting and gritty scene. Remarkably realistic too, showing all sorts of types of people the imperial courts, that he's in. I would certainly recommend!
