Shimmer Lake (2017)
Simple move, wants to have a twist ending but lacks it
A story told out of order, think Memento or Pulp Fiction.
Or sort of whose done it or why dons it. You can tell they wanted to keep the audience on the edge of their seats until the very end for when everything finally comes together, but...
The problem, it's so damn easy to piece it all together within 20 minutes. So for the rest of the movie you are sort of just dragged along, waiting for the ending that you already know how it's going to end.
That's a huge problem with movies like this where they want to have a twist but their isn't enough story to twist around for it to be surprising to the audience.
Full Circle (2023)
Superb series
I will start with how some of the other positive reviews started, which is I don't understand the negative reviews.
The story flows so well, everything ties together so well without being too contrived. Each character is unique and the dialogue delivers the story, nothing is wasted.
All the performances were perfect for each character.
Each episodes leaves you wanting to know more, and by the last episode it fully realizes the circle and you feel fulfilled. You are never left confused.
Those who are complaining about this series must not like good shows or know what a good show is.
I will add, that it is best to watch this with subtitles because some of the accents are hard to follow.
