I think the cast and crew got bored, hit the weed, had some creative differences and ended up going to and from Hook Jaws Swiss family Robinson The blue lagoon Donkey Kong Apocalypse now The deer hunter And finally the end scene of Jaws again I found this boring the first time so thought I'd watch it again all these years later in case I wasn't paying enough attention the first time. It was boring. Not just boring, but really hard going. I'm not entirely sure why apart from the negativity. Here's what I think: Firstly young people searching for adventure on their travels and talking the same old same old about escaping the typical is nothing new and wasn't when this was made. Basically blah and yawn They get to the beach and what's so amazing about living with a lot of immature people playing house? So there was some blue water and sand and a few banana plants. So what! Hardly worth risking your life to get to. The only thing worth anything in this movie was the relationship the two french people and Richard had. That was worthy of an adventure. This movie was a massive waste of time. That's all it was blah and time to no ends. We know it's hard to go back to our lives and we know we all need to escape.

Grew up with these movies, but never realised Meryl streep could sing and had the option of being an actress as well as a singer. I noticed when mamma Mia came out a lot of viewers asked if Meryl streep could sing or if she was mimicking? Judging by this movie Meryl could have easily been as big in the music industry as Tammy Wynett. There are a bunch of performers that seem to be not only great at acting as they are at singing. Meryl was a huge favourite of mine growing up and well into my adult years. I say was because I don't see her in movies anymore. She earned her rest. She was in a great deal of iconic movies and gave a phenomenal performance every time. More than a great asset to a movie that would not have been what it was without her and her star-studded cast members had any of them been absent. Also she is female and made her mark at a time when it was tougher for females to make their mark. I also love that not only is she a mother of daughters of a similar age to what Meryl was during her stardom, but her girls look exactly as she did and still does. What an incredible mother to have and be proud of, and lead you on your way. Be it acting or simply just being. On a side note: I discovered this movie after watching encounters of the third kind. I am a huge Jaws fan and there for me will sadly be another movie as great as Jaws one for all the obvious reasons and personal ones. So I searched Richard Dyfuse movie because he is also a phenomenal performer in his craft, but also with like Meryl Streep very real and put who they are into their craft because that's talent. I have to say the role he played in this movie makes me wonder if he chose parts that he could relate to or if individuals in the acting profession casted him in certain roles because they could see him as an individual and felt he would perform well in roles better suited to what he understood personally. Not saying he was empathetic of drug addiction because I have no way of knowing if he had any experience of that. I'm referring to his struggles with mental health. I would like to say personality disorders, but that label has been assigned to a specific trait. His experience with mania and finding out about yourself and embracing who you are. I often think that had my very large family been thrust into the world of performing arts my siblings and I would have been a Mardi gras of disaster in epic proportions and most of us would be dead now 😂 except me because I realised as a child to blend. It gets you when you are older though and living a mediocre life. So who knows if maybe I would have had to endure those struggles sooner. My siblings definitely would have definitely gone before me though because you must embrace who you are and see it as potential not a stigma, but a very intriguing attribute. Tame the chaos within you in order to look at it and the gifts it holds.

I absolutely love this show. This show has been running for a long time now and has in my opinion always been exciting and interesting. Even the very first season was excellent. Unlike with nearly all TV shows we have to tag along and condition ourselves into becoming interested. Homeland has always been excellent. I hope this show never ends. One episode feels like 30 minutes and waiting a week for another kills me. Waiting for another season takes time to come to terms with. I'm in love. Okay I have just read that this show only has one more season! WTAF! Whom ever made this decision should be shot! How many clues do they have!? NONE!!!! Has this imbecile even seen the ratings 🤷. This is the best TV show on television at the moment and has been since it aired.

This didn't deserved bad reviews. I didn't get bored watching it. It runs along quite smoothly. I think it's difficult to say if the majority will like it, but it's clear from the review's that not enough people have watched it yet Also it's not difficult to watch. You don't need super concentration to watch and understand this. I watch this while tired and I have appalling concentration.

This movie was a pointless waste of time. The only people that might like this is those who like punch ups and bad acting. I'm from the UK, but had to keep rewinding and reading the English subtitles because I don't speak " incoherent, lowlife drivel"

It's clear to see that a lot of work has gone into this show and has paid off because it is brilliant. I was a die hard fan of the TV show Penny Dreadful. This new show is a show all of its own and at episode 3 I am enjoying it more. There is a lot going on in this show so it never loses my interest. I love all the characters and the young police detective it's very charismatic. Everyone in the show is a fantastic actor. The acting is believable and of a high standard. I love the Day of the dead thing and the Mexican beliefs/ Spanish/their version of the grim reaper, I love all the nationalities, the period it's set in and faiths that are depicted, varieties of personal choice/ lifestyles and there is so much colour in the show. The show is like a massive bowl of fruit and spice and there is so much energy. The costumes are fantastic, being able to see the streets as they were in that time period and the vehicles. This show has essence of West Side Story. This show is very intelligently written and produced etc. This show is visually stunning, high quality viewing that's interesting and fun.

Interesting.

I'm only giving this a 4 star because I watched it on BBC iPlayer. Not impressed with the iPlayer for these reasons: The iPlayer wouldn't stretch to full screen so I had to go into dock settings and remove my navigation icons Then I was unable to rewind or fast forward because iPlayer doesn't have icons for this. On BBC iPlayer the episodes are in the wrong order. I think I watched part of one episode and the last. I'm pretty sure I didn't see any of the first episode. Why is this? Well because: There was a yellow border that kept appearing behind the crappy iPlayer. When I kept shrinking the iPlayer and enlarging it in order to get rid of it the player jumped between episodes and even into other programs. Also the player plays the next episode automatically and plays the wrong episode. Otherwise this would have been great viewing.

Fantastic movie! Absolutely flawless perfection. I didn't lose interest at any point. I was on the edge of my seat at times. It had just the right amount of humour. Great actors. None of the actors/ characters were unlikable. All of them were strong characters/actors. Decent amount of action. Very uplifting and inspiring. Made me cry for good reason. It's one of those stories that leaves you torn because it really happened and it's so great and so impressive, but it's also so unfair. Anyway I personally really felt the actors did a great job in bringing this across. I haven't seen a movie as good as this in years. It really stirred me up and left me a mess 👍

I enjoyed this. I'm pretty picky and like the acting to be believable and this was not a let down. Yes it's been done before many times, but if you like murder mysteries and are intrigued by how some sociopaths think and detective work then this will be right up your street. Obviously it is fiction which just adds some enjoyable glamour and entertainment. Can't wait for season 2. I read that this won't be until 2022 and only if Nexflix gives the green light. Which is a real shame because everyone needs an escape right now after the pandemic.
