The first couple of episodes didn't completely work for me but by the end I was fully in love with the cast and characters, the tone, the overall mood, the plt and the action. This is way better than any MCU show, apart maybe from Loki.
What a great ending for a lovely show. It's a pity some of the actors couldn't return (I didn't miss the therapist though) but the writing, acting and directing is better than ever. And that final image...
This starts really out of whack, the first three episodes really don't work in terms of gags and drama. Too much. But then it finds a balance and it becames a really good final season, funny, heartfelt and with nice closure for all characters.
What an amazing show! Visually stunning, full of ideas, easter egg, homages, and so frigging funny. I loved watching it with my daughter.
Like season 1, this takes a couple of episodes to really become good and I have to say after the beautiful ending of season 1 that was a bit hard to swallow. But then it gets back on track and delivers some great moments. I cannot stand the therapist, though. I don't think he's that funny and it's the only character with no real development or usefulness in the overarching story.
It takes a couple of (quite good nonetheless) episodes to really get on track but then it becomes a very, very, very good show, extremely funny, sad, deep and light at the same time. Really lovely. Plus, it could have absolutely worked as a single season, with a very nice ending, so I'm curious to see what he did in season 2.
The Walking Dead if The Walking Dead was consistently great in every single episode, didn't last too long and didn't sound incredibly dumb when it tried to do drama. Great acting, writing, directing and such lovely writing, always interesting in how it's constructed and so caring and uplifting in how it takes care of its characters. What an amazing show.
They should have squeezed the first three episodes in a bottle episode during The Mandalorian season 2 and then they should have used the storyline of the last three episodes as The Mandalorian Christmas Special. Maybe, that way, it wouldn't be boring as shit. Instead, we got the usual, well produced, moderately fun, moderately boring, kinda wasted opportunity we tend to get from Star Wars/MCU TV shows, just a little more boring than usual.
Do not get me wrong: there's some good stuff and some fun stuff in here and I'm kinda fascinated by the idea they are basically making one big "Tatooine Tales" TV Show with different titles in different seasons, but really, this was tolerable only because I decided to watch it while doing laundry.
A lovely show, that makes both me and my daughter laugh so much with its monty pythonesque humour but is also touching, lovingly real, crazily imaginative. What a huge surprise.
As always with MCU shows/movies, there's great stuff here but it's buried under the usual formula and the need to setup a hundred other things by taking time away from the core of the story. This was sold as the Marvel version of a Shane Black movie but it's basically an anesthetized version of Shane Black.
A (mostly) very good cast for a (mostly) very dull show.
A return to form from first to last episode.
Lots of ups and downs for half a season, it gets back on track in the second half, when it starts fucking around with the formula.
Six episodes of slow, masterful buildup and then three fucking masterpieces.
The usual MCU good but not great stuff.
I'm astonished by the rapidity with which this goes from "Interesting, fun, at times quite deep" in the first half of the season to "What the fuck, this is a masterpiece" in the second hallf of the season.
A very good adaptation of the source material, with great ideas in visual terms and that "voiceover plot twist" that works particularly well. At the same time though, I think the structure based on alternating comical sketches with the drama part doesn't always work, especially when the humor gets a bit stale in the second half and becomes something you have to endure if you want to see how it ends. But I remember feeling this was an issue of the original graphic novel too so...
Probably the funniest thing I watched with my daughter. Lovely.
This is really cute. Maybe too much.
This is really cute. Maybe too much.
I really don't like and I don't have much more to say.
This kinda weirdly reminds me of the japanese robot cartoons I used to watch as a kid. It's fun.
Great acting, great writing, so many funny scenes and so much depths. Plus, I so want to spend many years with these people. It's one of those shows.
What a great, fun, lovely show. The cast is perfect, those two guys still have impeccable timing in their comedy instincts, the mystery plot is interesting and fun with all the misdirections and on a couple of occasions it made me almost suffocate with laughter. I hope they don't mess it up in season 2.
Such a step up from the already great first season in how all characters evolve and are dissected. Even the minor ones.
Friday Night Lights but silly, optimistic and fun.
Lovely writing, direction and acting, a smart, funny and moving story, relevant themes and the right length. Twenty years ago it would have been a movie, now we get a TV show. It's fine, I guess.
Well, first of all, how nice it is to "be" in Hawaii for six hours. That being said, this is a very good show, wonderfully acted, funny, entertaining, sad, with lots of stuff to say, even if sometimes it's a bit goofy in how it says those things. It kinda does the Succession trick of making you care for people you despise because you nonetheless can see some humanity, some part of yourself, in them. And Alexandra Daddario deserves a better career.
Relevant, funny, moving, incredibly well acted, written and directed, so dense, human, full of thought and deep but also visually inventive and fascinating. Wow.
A nice second season, with a beautiful short and four other nice ones. Getting only five is a bit disappointing, though.
A lovely collection of shorts. Some are beautiful, some are very good, some are just fine, but they are all interesting, well crafted and different in terms of style, themes and emotions.
