@charlez7 Who is telling us not to watch it? Is this another "I heard someone say" case? The mysterious "They"???
In short:
Racist crap.
Weird.
Senseless.The movie is so ridiculously empty, it’s obviously just to promote race baiting bs.
It seems to be very popular in Hollywood. In almost every production these days there are derogatory remarks towards white people.
Racism is a constant theme.loading replies
@ericdevette Where's the derogatory remarks against white people?
Another not so subtle wokeish pile of crap from Netflix. The premise promised so much, and yet the movie delivers so little. I literally knew the moment I saw the weird daughter that the last shot of the film would be her face. Anti white, anti government, anti men, ultimately leads to anti… itself.

@isildursbane I just know you start crying and throwing up everytime a black person appears in a movie.

@isildursbane I wouldn't like to know what your reaction would be if the last image of the movie were of a black woman.
sorry- i dont get it. maybe because i dont live in the us. and i dont get it why "white people should see it".
if, in the last scene, they drive together, they talk about their lives, find point they have in common - and then they shake hands, the black guy leaves and the policeman drives away... than you can say "message: just talk to each other and you will see, race doesnt matter, they are all the same". but now its just "white people are all bad. they lie and then they kill you. doesnt matter what you du and how nice you are". that is not the world i now. not where i live. but as i said... i dont live in the states, maybe its different there.but if white should see that... maybe well, maybe black people should see "lakeview terrace" ??

@call_me_driver This might be a very late reply to this shout, but I just found out and watched the short movie. I gotta say, despite not knowing where you live, you don't know the world out there. You see, I am white, some might even look at me and see a caucasian. But my family comes from a lineage of mixed races, same as the vast majority of the Brazilian families. So, one thing that my family teached me differently is to be respectful, regardless of color, gender, beliefs, regardless any differences. But, my friend, I can guarantee you that I... am an exception.
I disagree with the idea you presented, that the short movie tries do make it look like every white person out there is bad. You missed the point. The short is telling many stories through many different levels, and you are looking on the surface only. For instance, the white person here is a police officer, he represents a structure, an organization, the force of the State itself. Much like the Holy Spirit is God's presence, the State is ever present, and its strength is manifested through the military (for outsiders), and the police (for its own people).
Take for instance the last scene, when the officer makes it very clear that he is AWARE of the repetition, he understands that they are stranded on a (time) loop, and yet... "that is just the way it is", says the music on the background. Despite the fact that the police (man) understands and is AWARE of how stupid the repetition is, the mindless killing of the black person (people) continues, as supported by the almighty State, carried on by the very same police (man), who seconds ago was cheerfully engaging into a very intimate conversation with the black person. And the killing still happens, over and over again. Do you see what I'm saying?
I surelly recommend you to give the short movie another try. Check the symbols (like the blood pool in the last death, with the same outline as Africa), the names, pay attention to it. And keep your mind open. Peace, bro!
Showing the studio set at the end and beginning was not necessary.

@guyduke the theme of the movie is how we all invent our own stories to explain our world. The girl had convinced herself that she must fast in order to save her brother from the eternal flames of hell. Later she convinced herself she had survived all this time because of mana from heaven. Many were convinced she was a saint, others that she was being murdered in degrees by her family. Showing the set at the beginning reinforces this idea.
We all tell ourselves stories. Sometimes they are useful, and sometimes they can harm as well. I love the line the newspaper reporter says about the girl. "She is an actor."
Pass! Too much :rainbow: crap

this episode is bad, but really? over two guys kissing? snowflake.
NOT FOR KIDS! Could have been a great movie if they left out the gay kissing, especially in a PG movie. The two of them should have been made to hug instead. Would have had the same effect without all the awkwardness and young girls turning around saying "I can't watch this". Despicable.

I can’t tell if you’re kidding or not. Why would a PG rating dictate there being a gay scene. Have you met any teenage girls? Why would they walk out of a movie cos of that. You watched a movie that started on TUMBLR and you expect there to be nothing gay?
It's the worst show I've ever watched. After one episode I can say that it is not suitable for watching. The series was filmed to scare, upset and bring a lot of negative emotions into life. Completely different than, for example, The Walking Dead. It introduces anxiety, elements that were during the last war - a scene with a boy with a child admitted to quarantine. Then thrown on the pile. Probably a series for subliminal coding of negative emotions. Don't watch it. The whole thing is probably filmed according to the current pandemic narrative.

"It's the worst show I've ever watched" sorry I've just stopped reading after you said "After one episode I can say.."

@michalkaluza it’s based off a game which they did a damn pretty good job on it
It only took me 5 minutes to start cringing at this show. American gringo with fake Russian accent. Currently there doesn’t seem to go one American show/movie by without a dig at Russia. It's okay, but could they seriously not find a native Russian actor? Is this so hard for Hollywood?

@drumnugget This isn't what the show is about. Don't be convinced not to watch this just cause one actor used an accent. It's not anti-Russian or anti-anything at all
