Touches You

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

This is a good show, it has so many things to it. Nostalgia most of all, those times look so interesting and deep. Some concepts are very nice, like the one that a friendship is like being like in a family. The car scene in the first season was intense and dramatic, got me a range of emotions. I binged season one almost compulsively, I was totally hooked by the story and made me crave for more. Mylene is one of the most beautiful girls I have ever seen. My favorite Character is the uncle, hands down. I also like the brothers dad.None of the kids has a particularly strong personality though which is sad, even Shaolin which is supposed to be the cool mysterious and talented kid, is unfolded later as a weak character, I kept hoping for him to get better. Maybe is the directing that made him weak, perhaps he was written as a strong character.I LOVE the real footage they added to it, I loved seeing how NYC looked like back then, it's perhaps one of the best things of the show. The first episode of season one was really cool, ultra bold start, well done. --- Season two SADLY got me less excited, perhaps for the animations that they added throughout, I mean, I they have this "street" style look but being an animator I didn't really enjoy them. I think they could've been so much better. Still respect for who made them but they made the entire show look too cartoony and it could've been way more dreamy and dramatic. They're portraying the gay kid as an alien (?), maybe because he's also an artist but that left me a little confused, anyways the relationship between these two is so sweet, they could've at least kissed at some point instead of leaving that part unsolved.Is this show aiming at young kids? there are a bunch of things that are kept on the surface. It started off like a Saturday Night Fever kind of vibe mixed with Kids and some Hip Hop stuff but it got more glamorous over the second season, less drama, more cartoons, less real if you ask me.Regardless if the facts happening in the show are real of not, its an entertaining show but I can totally see how it would pi** people off. Especially people that know about hip hop and/or have lived that stuff. It's a Buz Luhrmann production, this is a romanticized version of facts and didn't feel so real to me that I am so far away from that culture.

This show has been a revelation for me the past year, they have been the best six and a half hour of TV for me in a long time. I feel it did not get that much attention because I heard no one talking about it in my friend group or online. First this show is about music, and good one at that. The tracklist is outstanding and the originals created for the show are equally impressive, the blend of disco and hip-hop works so well on so many levels. I love how the whole relation between Zeke and Mylene revolves around music as well. First the 'Pakkousa' and later on Mylene's song. It feels all very natural and sincere. In the words of Grand Master Flash 'It's the music Grasshopper, that burning fire beating within your hart'. Furthermore I want a quick shout out to 'Cadillac', his dancing was insane, I really hope to see more of him later on. Second this story has good writing and some great characters to accompany it. Jackie Moreno is exactly how I imagined a producer active in that scene back in the day. The scene between dj Malibu, Shaolin and Zeke is one of the funniest scenes ever. I also like the fact that they have included historical events into the story like the 'Night that the lights went out in NYC'. It really helps progress the story in a natural way. Visually the show is very impressive as well. I love how they managed to make it such a colourful display despite the fact that New York was pretty grim back then. If you have any affiliation with music I really recommend watching this show, you won't regret it.

This is a great story if you never lived in the Bronx during the 1970s. Rife with revisions, omissions and straight up fabrications, it is the "fantastic" story of stereotypes, generalizations, archetypes and characters with no substance or historical grounding at all. This show gets everything wrong. Nice sets, cute costumes, too bad they are largely anachronisms culled from hip-hop story books and not by asking people who actually lived in those times. Far too unrealistic and revisionist for anyone who lived in this era. I wouldn't waste my time with this again, too bad, I can't get back the time wasted on the first 6. It was funny laughing at how wrong they got it, though.More like the Let Down! LOL Keep trying!

This series has everything you have been asking for. Music, drama, love, bromance, (even some action) and music. Lots of great music. Really great music.You might be thinking that because you were not alive at that time or you didn't leave anywhere near the Bronx, you might not understand it. But i lived all my life in Argentina, and i was born on 1999 and i have really adored it. The scriptwriters understand their job perfectly.The speed on storytelling is plainly delightful, and the story itself makes you suffer and wonder a lot. Its awesome. And lots of fun. Lots.Please watch it, we need more series like that on Netflix. We deserve, as a society, good entertaining quality shows like this.I hope you enjoy it as much as i did.
