Strike (2017)
Single and real
Wonderfull acting, and a subtlety between the two leads that you dont often get on screen.
A Series of Unfortunate Events (2004)
Not happy but fun
And more true to life than most tv. The fact that there is no happy ending makes it possible to delve into feelings that are not often explored in such an accesible and humorous way. One of those rare shows where the fantastic elements make it all seem more real.
Thunderbirds Are Go (2015)
If only they'd payed as much attention to the plots as to the graphics
No review sentence more damning then: this could have been great. Combining CGI characters with physical models was a bold and interesting move, and the result looks unique and charming. If the writing had been even half-decent, this would have been a modern classic. It took me a while to find out who perpetrated the crime that is this shows writing because the writers are listed at the very, very end of the credits, after the caterer. For the record, it was Patrick Rieger. If the script had been higher on the priority list, someone would have noticed how cringe-worthy the dialogue gets, and how illogical the plots are. Nothing wrong with the message that you can overcome everything through the power of friendship (even if it is not true), except when a show spells it out first and then proceeds to cram it down the audiences sore troath. The show has adapted the action, graphics and pace to modern standards , but the plot hand holding, jokes recurring till the end of time, and the overt wise lesson of the week, are worse then they were in the nineties. The show can not even claim to be educational because of the gaping plot holes, questionable morality, and misrepresentation of concepts like AI, Physics, Computers and Politics. Sad to see such beautiful imagery and love and dedication to visuals made unwatchable by a shoddy script.
