The series was very good i enjoyed it very much until the last episode. I initially liked it because my take was that it was about motherhood and the choices we make in life and how they affect us, and how nobody has got it right. But at the last episode they pretty much made it like ok this person was wrong all along, and the other person was 100% right, healthy, and successful. And btw the mia character was very annoying, especially with her mimic that u couldnt tell if shes smiling or sad or is just disgusted by smth. Anyway i was very disappointed with the last episode

It was a great movie really, but i personally didnt like it. The camera movements and the light flashes were too much specially in the beginning, it felt as if they couldnt involve u without the awful light and sound and the camera rolling around. I liked how realistic the feeling of every scene was, it even keeps u emotionally distanced from the characters which in my opinion makes two points, when something quite horrific happens u emotionally distance urself and therefore made it even more realistic, and that we dont need to feel an emotional connection to an individual or know them well to have empathy. I said these because i read a review that the writes said he didnt feel like the rape scene was touching because he didnt like any of the character and that alex was not really a good woman and already was ok with anal sex and had left a man for another. i found this review to be very disturbing. And i actually think the movie was trying to clear these things too.

The only reason im giving two stars camera angle, the fact that they could get away without any dialogue, and a fair 3D work. Thats all. The rest was just awful, boring, repeating scenes as if theyre happening for the first time and then it keeps happening it feels so awkward. Different aspects of the movie didnt fit together, it was as if they had a few random ideas and they kind of just put them in a bowl and mixed.
