well, that was disappointing.
well, that was disappointing.Like, actually one of the biggest disappointments this year because it failed in every aspect. I love Daou-Offroad and I find Offroad to be a fantastic actor - I was so excited for this series! I genuinely don't understand what happened and how this happened but the quality of the production is terrible, which is especially bizarre considering the previous works they've done together. The audio was peaking throughout the entire series, the music was corny and didn't match the tone of most scenes, the camera struggled to stay in focus, the story was flat and repetitive, the actors were mediocre and all of this combined (accentuated by the music) felt like a soap opera. It was almost comical whenever the "DUHH" sound effect hit for every reveal\mistake\show of emotion\etc. and whenever the actors repeated the exact same things over and over and over again. Take Chet for example, the man is unable to resist the urge to throw an object across the floor at every minor inconvenience. All he does is throw a table around while throwing a tantrum and throwing weak insults consisting of "you're just the son of a mistress. You and your mom are useless. I'm very important. Mine, mine mine". And the father is just as bad with throwing punches at his children. Again, instead of using his words, he kept hitting them and repeating equally, annoyingly repetitive words "you're useless. I never liked you. I gave you a chance and you ruined it. You're not worthy. useless, useless, useless."
Very quickly in the story do these series of events repeat themselves. Someone does something, the siblings voice how incapable the other is, the father is happy, it backfires, father hits and then banishes them away. repeat. anyway, the last thing I'll mention was the inconsistencies. Lots of continuity errors and also just general events that don't make sense. I can't tell you the amount of times someone got severely injured but it's as though their bodies magically healed itself right away. other than smaller continuity issues scattered here and there, I remember a pretty big one near the start of the show where one moment, Pheem is covered in blood but then the next shot he's completely fine and then it cuts back to him being all bloodied lol.
I'm not someone who enjoys hating on art, I really don't, but I cannot understand for the life of me how this series had a near perfect rating?????
Je ne comprends pas lol
