Match (2021)
Original and very funny
No idea why the current rating is so low. I found it very amusing. All actors are fantastic! Maybe the stories are a bit simplistic but the episodes are very short and it's the humour that counts. Hopefully it gets a second season.
PS: the original, Norvegian, version get's 8/10.
A Series of Unfortunate Events (2017)
Season 1 brilliant, but then it declines
The first half of season 2 is still good but then it goes downhill. I often got the idea I was watching a show for kids. To bad, the start was really promising - I even wanted to give the full 10/10.
Open Water (2003)
booooooring
It takes needlessly long before the movie really starts (i.e. something happens) and when it does, almost nothing else happens again.
For me, a movie doesn't necessarily need a lot of things to happen, if it can convey a certain message or atmosphere. This movie was unable to do any of these three things. I watched it almost the entire time at 2x play speed.
Positive things: - the acting is quite good - nice scenery and nature shots - the movie reminded me a few times of Danny Boyle's "127 hours", but only because it could be more or less classified into the same genre :-s
Maybe I was not in the right mood for it, but I doubt it. It just felt a bit too weak.
