Kiss Sixth Sense (2022)
Average show
A shame as a missed opportunity - horrible writing by the end as we have main leaders almost killing each other. I don't think we need a sweet happy ending but don't want to see people hurting each other and completely changing who they were, it gives a weird message that you make your own fate by staying with whoever and being crazy unhappy.
Clearly the writer was going through a bad breakup at the time and decided to ruin it for everyone else.
The plot is kinda of interesting but the story is messy and makes no sense, I skipped a few bits by the end as I just wanted it to end.
Avoid this show.
Elvis (2022)
I want my time back
I didn't watch a film called Elvis, I just watched a film about Elvis manager, Colonel Parker. Had to put up with Tom Hanks acting and narration which was horrific, I respect Hanks as an actor but this has to be one of his worst films.
The music keeps you going but if you like Elvis you can find better youtube videos. I'm so disappointed with this version of his life.
This doesn't reflect his talent or his journey, just reflects his manager draining the life out of him, please next time change the name to Colonel Parker so we know in advance what to expect of this story. I was expecting to hear about his life, family, music, and how we got there. The narration wasn't necessary, it could be a simpler story as with his music and personality we already have ao much but it was so short...honestly don't understand the high reviews here.
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (2022)
so far loving it and season 2 was even better
It was hard at the start I won't lie but seeing the world of Tolkien coming back to life always gives me a glimmer of hope and tremendous joy.
I'm not sure if he would like it himself but is an interesting concept on how things unravelled and I can't wait to see the rings of power.
The story is slow so if you are expecting action straight away then maybe this is not for you, but if you love the characters of The LOTR and want to see Isildur, Elrond and Galadriel then is worth the watch.
The discovery of mithril and the importance behind it, I'm so excited to see this story.
And the scenography, music - is terrific.
I know for some the actors can be a bit dramatic in their performances but I'm giving them a chance and most definitely will keep watching this show.
Obi-Wan Kenobi (2022)
Loved it. Can't wait for season 2.
I personally enjoyed the storyline, it was refreshing to see how the story continues for Obi Wan, Darth Vader, Leia and Luke.
I was intrigued and full of adrenaline after watching each episode.
Did I love every character? Maybe not and there could be slight changes made but overall it was perfectly executed and it brought back so many memories.
I really hope they make season 2...
May the force be with you!
The Split (2018)
Must watch
This show took me on a great journey through the lives of these wonderful sisters. Make sure you have some tissues as loads of intense moments in the show.
Each season has a key focus on a case and they way they connect them with the main characters conflict is just brilliant.
Loved the show.
Algoissjiman (2021)
so far really interesting
I personally enjoyed that is a very different storyline in relationships than the ones we generally see in kdramas and for that I found this show refreshing.
Most relationships in life are not perfect and this show will allow you to use a different side of them.
So far I'm really enjoying it. I recommend to watch and see for yourself but be prepared this is not a typical kdrama where they are scared of touching hands.
Meolriseo Bomyun Pooreun Bom (2021)
wonderful show
Lovely show with deep powerful stories for the main leads, I enjoy the music, the relationships and overall the narrative of this show.
I believe it could have been closed in 10 episodes and they drag it a bit, hence why I have it an 8.
Lovely little show with some really great performances.
Nabillera (2021)
The beauty in following your dreams
One of the best dramas I have seen. Is a reminder never to let go of your dreams no matter how old you are, it is inspiring and so beautiful.
Had me crying so many times, specially touching as someone in my family suffered from dementia.
You can't miss going on this journey with Duk-Chol.
Thanks for making this wonderful show.
Agui kkot (2020)
Superb thriller
Hard to describe in words how amazing this show is. The journey of our main character and the development on his personality is intense. I love the throwbacks in his past and the discoveries into who he is and who his father was.
A top notch korean drama.
You cannot miss it.
Also enjoyed immensely the song Psycho.
Was It Love (2020)
great start poor finish
I initially loved this show, powerful start with a great song and many flashbacks to the past of our 2 main characters makes you feel connected straight away.
However as the story develops there are many flows trying to interconnect multiple storyline's that just don't work in my opinion.
The misunderstanding of our main characters is believable but only to a point as not so sure this could be realistic in many ways.
The ending was very sour for me, if you just reconnect with your partner and find out you have a daughter, you wouldn't leave them for 2 years, to come back to her being 16 and losing precious time with them, to disappoint them one more time and repeat history.
To top it up you would like to see him being the father and partner he hoped to be, thought instead be see his daughter getting married walking down the aisle with his mom. I get she is the strong figure but he deserved so much more in the story. I felt a bit meh by the end of it.
So much potential but not developed as it should be.
The King: Youngwonui Gunjoo (2020)
Outstanding show
I don't write reviews but this show deserves one.
From the first episode there is an intriguing aspect of time travel that will keep you wondering for the whole show. It is the narrative on the show and the amazing cast that makes this one, one to remember for sure.
I enjoyed mostly the parallel words and how the portrait a different Korea, a unified Korea.
A must watch for sure.
Itaewon Keullasseu (2020)
Outstanding
I have watched so many korean dramas but this one is powerful, meaningful and tells a wonderful story of a father and son journey together and how through his father beliefs the son will overcome everything and go after the things he really wants in life or at least thinks he does.
The acting is so beautiful. The music behind scenes breaks your heart.
Loved every bit of it.
One more show to see go. Oh how hard it is.
a must watch!
The Last Thing He Wanted (2020)
absolute disaster
I normally don't write reviews but this movie definitely deserves one to the most boring film I have seen.
The narrative is such a mess, there is no clear indication of who the characters really are and why they are making such decisions. It jumps from place to place the story and we clearly can't understand why Anne Hathaway keeps making such terrible decisions.
Acting unfortunately accompanied with a terrible script and a bad director means the film has a terrible after taste.
How can I get my time back? You simply can't.
So do yourself a favour and don't watch this.
Yuyeolui eumagaelbeom (2019)
A wonderful story
Came across this film by accident and it was just a pleasant surprise.
We venture into the journey of two young people that meet in the 90's in a bakery shop. They go through many ordeals in life and find each other again and again but the timing never seems right.
I have enjoyed the music in this film and the silence as well. The narrative is beautiful and it is so well directed, actors are also superb.
Absolutely loved it.
Romaenseuneun Byulchaekboorok (2019)
the moon is beautiful
A captivating story of family, hardship, life, friendship and overall love and honesty.
I cannot yet believe how much I have enjoyed this serie. I was captivated by the storyline from the first episode all the way to the end.
I have learnt to love every character and must say is hard to say goodbye to them.
I travelled alongside with them and fell in love with the language so much I forgot I had to read subtitles.
I definitely recommend watching this show, you will end loving the story and thinking of working in a publishing company...maybe move to Korea?
