Bellevue (2017)
And so it begins
I don't really understand why it has a 6.7 from 94 people, didn't anybody watch this show and just some haters gave it a low rating? It had only one episode yet, those reviews are also the reason for my review.
From the other reviews I expected the show to start really slow or with bad actors, but everything is good enough for a TV show and the story is not so different from the very good first season of True Detective.
I'm only bothered by some little things like why would you go in there alone in the dark, you know what I mean, but the story makes up for that, a lot happens and it's not slow at all. I would maybe give it a 7.5 but I'll round it up to 8, because I truly am curious about the next episode.
Kim's Convenience (2016)
It's actually funny
As part Asian and a big fan of TV shows this of course is a show for me. These days it seems very hard to make a comedy that's actually funny, but believe me, there were some laughs that you could here if you listen good.
For me this means everything for a comedy show, because in shows like The Big Bang or Silicon Valley the jokes are just not that funny. You hear the laughing tape and you think... this was a joke?
I am also a big fan of Fresh off the Boat and after two episodes this comes close, not really close, but close, because that is really one of my favorite comedy shows right now.
So I gave it a 9, maybe I would say a 8, but for a comedy that is actually funny these days I believe they deserve a 9. By the way, anyone else thinks Janet looks like a Korean Yvonne Strahovski?
Everybody Wants Some!! (2016)
Like what you would say they don't make anymore
This movie was cool! Not a movie with high standards, not with famous people, not with a complicated story... just a movie, that is if it was made in the 80s, we would now call it a classic! And that's what a lot of people forget, nostalgia can make a movie better than it was back then.
And this movie is made in these times. So people can still do it, only too bad they can't make them about our time... that would be cool, there are still baseball teams, college students, pledges and such.
So please if any of the directors is reading this, this is the perfect example of how an easy going movie can be good, enjoying and reach a big crowd.
For me this was the perfect summer evening movie, with a beer, enjoying some 20-30 some people trying to make something of their lives, even as a 34 year old, I could still connect with everything.
