it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

I was seeing Chewing Gum on Netflix for quite some time and I was very reluctant to start even one episode. I thank God for making me see the first episode, 200% comedy.Michaela Coel - Very talented, beautiful and lovely person.Danielle Walters - Very pretty and talented, wish everyone gets friend like her. Robert Lonsdale - Cute, handsome, funny. Shola Adewusi - OMG LOL... Unlimited fun Susan Wokoma - OMG LOL... Unlimited funTotally worth watching. I saw 3 season back to back twice, in 3 days.

This show could have been ruined by a heavy hand on the Director's controls, but it perfectly threads the gap between a bleak-and-gritty portrayal of London's working class (which it is not) and a zany, Poly Anna Utopia where's everything's perfect and nothing is permanent (which it also is not.) The lead actress, creator, and writer, Michaela Coel, is also spot on, ticking all the right boxes of "Hot," "Cute," "Silly," "Vulnerable," and -- yes -- even a deep-seated "Intelligent" with her character. She reminds of classic comediennes like Lucille Ball and pre-political-insanity Jenny McCarthy. I hope Netflix gives several more seasons.

Chewing Gum eventually loses its flavor!The bizarre, often crude and superficial examination of what happens when religion and sex collide.The effervescent and talented Michaela Coel stars, writes and is wholly responsible for this almost autobiographical take on her struggles with growing up into adulthood. It's 'Miranda' on speed in a much crappier neighborhood!Ms Coel ranges in appearance from a demure and frail Ghanian flower to grotesque New York drag queen very easily and it's these extremes in her life that make for a fast moving and very quirky situation comedy.The forced conflation of spiritual subservience and sexual discovery makes for uncomfortable viewing at times and there's no subtlety or pause in the action to allow the viewer to take a deep breath and examine what's happening.The series is helped, however, with good supporting characters, some swift editing and a frothy style of direction.This kind of TV clearly isn't aimed for the likes of old white codgers like me... but throughout all the noise and rough edges of this series, I predict that the world of entertainment will see a helluva lot more of Michaela Coel in the future.

The main character development is too slow, I lose some interest in the show because she is constantly reviewing the past and emotions but always having a passive way dealing with it, not trying to be pretentious here, but it will be better to make her more intriguing and complex, I know that maybe the protagonist is written to be more of an inducible type of person and she stands in certain moments, but then, like I've said, she constantly review her emotions and second- guessed herself and the girl are stuck in it. She is romantic self-centered and this is not a bad thing itself but it would be a lot better if she has some other concerns in life. What catches is the antagonist' life, here we see some more developed character with more interesting things going on, like the old lady and the mothers' ones, the mother of the guy is one of my favorites too, even her friend is more interesting, the show itself is not bad, strong antagonist', aesthetic is really pretty, but the protagonist girl, oh boy, she has charisma, but I don't watch the show because of her anymore and I probably will continue to watch because of the antagonists.
