Forst (2024)
Just no
After watching other Polish tv series "Feedback" I was expecting it to be as good.
Then, at the beginning, I saw that this tv series is based on Remigiusz Mróz's books and I said to my husband: I'm sure we won't like it.
Remigiusz Mróz is best selling author in Poland. I read two of his books and... I couldn't understand his phenomenon. Just not my style of writing.
We watched first episode and decided that it is as hard to watch as to read these books. I do think the problem is script - the dialogues are just unbearable and sound so unnatural. You would expect educated middle working class people to be able to say short sentence without "k****" - not in this tv series.
Just a no from us... (two stars for the scenery)
Beef (2023)
Show about anything really
I'm glad Asian minority is getting more representation in American movies/tv series as they are very talented actors.
But... the good actor needs a good screenplay. And this screenplay - storyline... was about... hmm... road rage? Fraud? Cheating? Marriage problems? Burglary? Finding the meaning in life?
I have no idea what the tv series was really about... and I guess that's the problem. Although first few episodes are promising, the middle ones are tiring and towards the end you just want the show to end to see if Paul is alive.
It's a pity as the show had so much potential and unfortunately, in my personal opinion, it failed.

Not realistic from diabetes point of view...
The movie is not boring, it is irritating when you have some knowledge about Type 1 diabetes care. It is not easy to get expensive, new insulin pump in the real world. In this movie, you can get new insulin pump in the temporary base on the airport, when being rejected the boarding. Like really?

Not what I was expecting!
I read a book. I also watched two previous Harlan Coben's tv series. Based on previous experience I was expecting something similar to Safe or Stranger. And it is not the same! Not at all!
What I found annoying about Safe and Stranger was the fact that all that middle aged average families live in the houses that most people living in UK won't be able to afford. And here we have Poland. And polish scenery. And public sector worker living in the flat like many other polish people!
I also loved summercamp. I remember going to the ones like the one from The Woods myself.
And series is in very slow pace, what helped to create atmosphere and gave time to reflect on the events, however I can imagine that for many people the show will be boring.
