Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

... View MoreThis movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
... View MoreThe ending was "choose your own ending." So, I say Jocelyn was aiming to profit from PJ's program. Why else would she have given Crystal a phony encryption key? And she may have been in on all of it with Nathan Brooks.Keith 'KD' killed Pernell for his attitude towards Tessie and Pernell's taking all of her money so she would need to depend on him. The look on KD's face when Pernell told him he was responsible for taking all her money. And where did KD get the money he gave Tessie? From the broker?If KD did not kill Pernell someone else should have. And hopefully Nathan got his before Pernell was killed by KD. After that it was business as usual for the rest of the flawed crew.I enjoyed the show but it had a lot of plot holes of things that wouldn't have happened in 100 years..
... View MoreI was surprised by all the poor reviews on "rotten tomatoes".Just signed up to amazon prime, tried this TV show out, was doubtful because of the bad reviews, however this show has been quite fun to binge - 8 episodes in, and loving it! Its got politics, ron perlman, ron perlman.people may be touchy about the way religion is portrayed, but as an aetheist idgaf. It comes as real, and although some of the supernatural themes feel unreal, everything else is fken fantastic.
... View MoreIndeed an extremely well written and wonderfully executed story. The character development was superb and definitely hands down, very touching and believable. A superior performance by everyone.Spoiler Part:When Pernell wanted to by choice take a medicine to suppress his visions, why didn't he just get an Rx for the medicine Crystal was originally giving him secretly when she was making all the meals for him? I don't understand that part. My presumption is because that was public information and if he were to be known to be taking that medicine, then it would confirm the suspicions that he was having hallucinations which would have scarred his reputation? Conclusion, definitely binge worthy. I stayed up until 3 am the final night to finish the last 4 episodes.
... View MoreI really liked the idea behind this show - it explores the idea of madness versus religious experience - which is quite a brave thing to do. The story line is emotional and it's often pacy and gripping. Characters are not pigeon-holed as simply saints or sinners - and what interested me the most was trying to work out whether the show even had a moral compass or a particular religious standpoint. However, some (all) of the characters ARE ridiculous. It's no gritty real world exploration - (Bubbles from the Wire is now a mayor in a suit attending masked balls!!!) and hence the low-ish score. Its all a bit too glossy, US, nobody lives like that, talks like that, even thinks like that, to really do the concept justice - but 10/10 for an original brave idea and making it watchable. Oh and did I mention the totally unnecessary sex scenes? Yes they literally suck. There is a particularly agonizing one where they talk dirty in a restaurant toilet. I nearly had to switch it off I was so embarrassed for them.
