If you are thinking about watching it - DO IT. This was such an unexpected surprise. It made made laugh out loud, the characters are written so well and are adorable, the clichés are not to much. Perfect blend of romance and comedy and a good story line. If you liked series like Love (2016), You're the worst (2014-2019), Schitt's Creek (a bit), YOU WILL ADORE THIS. Binged it in a few hours, and instantly started searching if there will be a season 2. The acting felt so natural too, you will care about the characters and not stop smiling to the screen, I was so happy watching it.

Chefs kiss honestly.

Probably the worst show I ever watched, and I watched a lot of reality shows. The concept is I guess fine and makes you interested but the host and some of the contestants are so disgusting. I have never felt so angry at some of the people, just plain evil...Some of the gross comments made my mouth drop and made me really sad and I felt so discouraged by the fact that people like this are even on TV. As a woman, this show is devastating.. Granted, the concept about people's flaws and reality is there, like the show made some of the backstage drama public and that was very impressive, like this is a REAL, RAW TV show, which when you finally get, you don't want to see in reality. Also, keep in mind cultural differences. But putting things in perspective doesn't account for the fact that this show was just cruel and very sad, offensive, creepy and honestly scarring. Also - young people should not be allowed to see this.

Saw it, because someone on Twitter wrote that they loved Amy Adams's performance in this one. I did not have an idea that I was missing out on such a strong series. Truly dark, mysterious, and difficult. Reminded me of the series True Detective - so if you like it you'll love this one. The series deals with family issues and some dark themes, so trigger warning is needed for some. I had really high hopes for an ending, because of the reviews, and even though it was quite shocking, it didn't really live up to the super-high expectation that I had (my fault I suppose). But overall, watched it in one sitting, and was hooked all the way through, so yeah...watch it.

The film was a great surprise. A real movie festival type treasure. Go in with a little bit of context beforehand and you'll find the meanings that were there. It's not an easy movie, so be prepared for that, and also turn on your mind for a bit. Beautiful shots, easy on the eye colours and camera work. It goes quite slow, so for some people it might be boring (saw some people exiting) but if you enjoy movies that are not so straightforward and are at slow pace - just go in. There were what looked to be as sound problems with syncing at the start of the movie, but overall it did not distract to much.
