EssenceStory Well Deserved Praise
ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Brennan Camacho Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
mstyles-624-399356 Yes, it has that original flavor of Twilight Zone, except it is 2018, and it's done very slickly.. Subtlety, they don't have to bash you over the head with nudity, sex, being 'trans' trendy like other shows.. Which also makes this a show which will 'age' well. It will still be very viewable years done the line.. The quality is in the writing, the casting, the actors, the cinema photography, all very well executed.. The inter-weaving, never lets you get bored by one scene.. and they keep the pacing excellent.. Very well done.
dpike-40596 Glad to see so many others like it as well as I do. Also glad I have watched it from the beginning. I am not sure that anyone could come in after say 4 plus episodes and ever catch up! It is complex, frustrating, fascinating, beautiful, bleak, convoluted, scary, and so much more. A watching note: you have to stick with the show! Don't give up on it.
caseybemis I started watching it because I like Sci/fi and wanted to watch something different from typical TV shows. I wasn't disappointed. The first few episodes drew me in, the middle lagged a bit. The show has been described by others, but I'll put my 2 cents in. It's about dreaming and what is the fine line between dreaming and real life. Are there hidden feelings? I think towards the beginning the 3 primary dreamers aren't sure what is happening. They share different people or objects in their dreams that don't make sense at first. And that's when the series bogs down a bit. And as these 3 start following clues it gets a little too ambiguous. But I stuck with it and by the last few episodes I was hooked. I still have to see the final episode, and I'm looking forward to it. I am tempted to go back and re-look at the first few episodes as this is, in a way, a puzzle. I could see this as a 1 season series. I think if I did that I would see more of the big picture. It will be interesting to see what happens in season 2.
AlexBlixa Falling Water tries hard, but quickly fails to hold attention with its postmodern, fragmentary and mysterious approach. The appeal of this wears off quickly when you start wondering when something is actually going to make sense. But instead of narrative arc we are burdened with clichés and stereotypical hyper-American character tropes. You just know we're heading into way deeper waters before things start making sense and this lack of narrative direction quickly becomes a turn off. And for a show so very dependent on dreaming sequences, it just does "dreaming" really badly. For example, dreamers are offered Ambien to help them nod off. However there's a real "lucid dreaming" drug out there that will put you to sleep in the middle of the day and give you quite amazing dreams. It's called Baclofen. But the writers and producers have apparently never heard of this medication. Who did their research? Also the dreams that characters dream are much too obviously narrative devices, in any case they are nothing like my dreams. They have way too much focus, detail and colour and carry far too much import to be believable on anything but TV. A good try, but "Twin Peaks" this certainly isn't.
