Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Some of my other recent picks would be Nurse Jackie and Nip and Tuck. Thus far we are into season 5, and have developed a strong interest in the characters. I'd say that The Hamptons must be one of the most unhealthy places to live given the frequency of rare diseases - however they are luckily nipped in the bud by the good doctor and team. Hank, Evan, Divia are the core of the solid cast. Henry Winkler is fabulous as the father. The back story of Boris is thus far a constant and developing, as are the amorous relationships of the core cast members (not among the cast members yet). The new "nerdy" doctor is a welcome addition whose social ineptness plays well against the stellar social and communication skills of the others. At this point the stars seem to be bringing him and Divia together but it remains to be seen if they collide and explode!The settings is amazing, and the acting excellent - we look forward to each episode. The frequency of patients falling down and convulsing does get a bit hilarious at times - but I guess that's part of its charm, and doesn't detract from it's top standing in my mind.

Great show. The writing makes you fall in love with the characters. I watched 3 seasons nonstop on Netflix and never got bored. This has never happened. Mark is an amazing actor/director. The well written story lines are engaging and interesting. This show keeps you coming back for more. Also as a nurse I am impressed will the pain staking details and accuracy of the medical aspects. The acting is superb. I love the new faces added each episode. Lots of good actors on board this project. Not too much gore. Enough to make the scenes seem real. This show is tasteful and makes me want to visit the Hamptoms and become ill! Lol

'Royal Pains'... .. yes, it did eventually become exactly that!! Maybe 6 stars - the entire series is like an hour-long, weekly video presentation for super-luxury real estate in The Hamptons (and designer clothing and accessories for women). With some very good performances, and some blatantly awkward ones as well, it must be said that casting for this series was mostly to blame for its failings.. yea, and lots of the writing was pretty poor too. One of the best performances is from Brooke D'Orsay. Every time on-screen, no matter the circumstance, standing head-and-shoulders above, she is just so spot-on in her role as Paige Collins (no wonder she's now appearing on several other shows). Streaming is probably not the best way to view this type of series. There's LOTS can become tiring VERY quickly when viewed without a weekly break (notably several of the more annoying and poorly acted characters). Now halfway through season 5.. and it's lookin very doubtful will be able to hang on till the finish (even with the much-used capability of streaming-forward). This would have been a considerably better production had more 'real-world' situations and people been allowed to surface on a more frequent basis... and should the catch-phrases 'concierge-medicine'..and especially 'Hank-Med' never be heard again.. that would be more than agreeable. PS.. did eventually finish season 5.. and all I can say.. can't help die-hard fans.. but for anyone else maybe thinking of buyin season 5 episodes.. do not bother!! Its gotten way-off-track.. this show REALLY should call it quits, and take the money and run.

I've began to watch this show because i liked the concept. A doctor who makes house calls in The Hamptons. I liked it from the beginning and et has a good story. On the other hand it's just not my kind of thing but it's just interesting enough to keep my attention. Mark Feuerstein and Paulo Costanzo are a very good acting duo and the acting overall is very very good. So overall i have to say acting is very good and the story is just average => 6/10But the reason i like this show the most is just because the visualization of the show is incredible so great props to the cameramen. It's just the way they always make such beautiful pictures, wow just wow! It's very well directed and filmed like no other show i ever saw before. Just a joy to watch => 10/10 So if I count those two scores I get and 8/10 and that's a good score to project how good this show is. I don't say it's a must watch, but it's worth a try.
