Review of The Slap

The Slap (2011)
4/10
Very, very slow
6 September 2021
Really liked the premise and the storyline but my word was this slow, painfully so. I get that the scene needs to be set and an atmosphere created but do we really need to see a person's face in profile for ten long seconds with nothing actually happening? You could cut out about two thirds of this and not miss any of the storyline. Because I like the story and the writing I am persevering with it but even 4 episodes in I'm fighting the urge to switch off due to the long periods of nothingness that happens. If this had been a bit less drawn out it would have been a solid 8 from me but as it stands I can only give a 4.
