Don’t trust the good reviews. 80% of this show is the equivalent of watching paint dry. You. Will. Feel. Every. Minute. That. Passes. Unnecessarily long and boring.
Starts off amazing for first 5 eps. When Ali died, the show lost its way a little. I’m also not sure point of the body organ subplot. Didn’t really lead to anything.
I’d also have rearranged the final scenes: have G sad and despondent, but also let him do charity stuff for Sang Woo’s mum etc. THEN let him not touch his own money for a year, as that still conveys his guilt and hopelessness. It still works. Otherwise, Seems bit weird and pathetic in order we got it in on the show. I get he was sad that his mom died, but bumming around for a year after seems quite a leap.
Lastly, did they really fly in the VIPS just to watch two games? A cool bridge one, and then what’s basically a cheap playground game of hopscotch? I think they should have come in earlier on the show.
Good show. The soundtracks are great.
I think everyone can learn a thing or two from this show...the writing is kinda corny but most of the episodes have me, a twenty one year old, tearing up a bit from the content
I'm not one to dwell too much on remake changes and such but hot damn did this lack something over the original anime. D-point in the original was just pure angst. They died one by one in protection of Usagi and it was heartbreaking for her to experience. Where was this element?
This time round the 4 generals got taken out and they stood around and wept about it or some crap? Then each supplied their 'lives' to give energy to Usagi. IDK. I know this is more true to the manga but it just wasn't as badass.
Everything was just so focussed on the girls and their past 'loves' then Usagi getting strength from Mamoru's presence. I just feel like despite the strong words of the intro song - of them not needing men to protect them - somehow this hasn't been fed through to the writing itself :/
ELEMENTARY - SEASON 3 - Is Kitty Here to Stay?
I am somehow baffled by the recent addition of Ophelia Lovibond as Katheryn "Kitty" Winter: Sherlock's newest protégée whom he brought with him from London after leaving MI6 in Season 3.
For some reason I dislike her and feel that she did not add anything to the show, on the contrary she took away one of the key elements which I used to enjoy which is Holmes and Watson's partnership in everything.
In spite the fact that the character comes with a heartfelt background that makes you feel for her being a victim of a vilont crime and all.
But, I failed miserably to like her, striking me most of the time as emotionless, cocky and abtuse.
I am afraid her presence might put me off the entire show especially with the fact that Liu's presence is somehow less this season..
Anyhow that is my take on Season 3, Let's just wait and see..
This show is so fucking dumb but I can't stop watching it because I'm in love with Rita Volk.
