Wire in the Blood: Nocebo (2007)
Weird filming technique
The whole episode looks like fuzzy black and white with an occasional pop of blue or red.
I like film noir, but this is fuzzy, grainy, and it almost looks pixelated at certain points in the story.
Like the previous review, I too thought some was wrong with my TV's settings. It's so dark, even in the light of day it's too dark to see some scenes. That's kind of annoying.
Since I couldn't see everything happening, I kept having to rewind scenes to understand what was going on. This show is so detailed and dense in information, the lack of clarity in the visuals made it particularly difficult to follow. It's a bummer, because I felt like this was a pretty important episode.
Candy (2022)
Disappointed
Maybe it's because this happened not far from my grandparents house, and my mom has known all of the details since it happened, but...as much as I love Jessica Biel and Melanie Lynskey, I think this is the most scattered and incoherent retelling of such a horrific event.
My biggest frustration is how terrible Betty comes across. I don't feel like anxiety and depression comes off as it should. Instead, she comes across as whiny, nagging, pain to live with, and that's just sad.
I don't think Allan was henpecked, but that's how he comes across, and Pat Montgomery seems like he's oblivious to everything around him. The man worked for TI.
Great cast, weak and scattered portrayal of Betty Gore's murder. I feel bad for her family that this is out in the world now.
