hyped garbage

What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

Twin peaks at first is like a lot of David lynch's work. Let's say you need to watch most of his films 2 times round to get an understanding of them. When I watched the pilot for the first time I felt like I was a part of the twin peaks community. The show does such a great job in combining genres. From the pilot to the last episode of season 2 I was intrigued by everything. I think the reason for me being so intrigued by twin peaks is not quite understanding everything at first and then later on having it all make sense. A big part of twin peaks is the beautiful soundtrack by Angelo badalamente. Without the soundtrack twin peaks I think would be very different as each scene has a stylish song playing to set the scene. For example the black lodge has the arm dancing to badalamete's dance of the dream man. Twin peaks is by far my favourite tv series and really do hope lynch makes a fourth series.

Just finished watching this because the third season just dropped after 25 years, which is perfect timing considering something that happens in the show. The first season of Twin Peaks is utterly brilliant. The second season is near garbage except for a few episodes which conclude the loose ends of season one; and the final episode which somehow manages to redirect the show back to excellence; however too little too late considering the fact it got canceled back in the days. Whatever, time to go and watch the Fire Walk With Me movie. Because season one is a ten out of ten and season two is about a six and a half out of ten - I'll just average out the scores and give the 90s Twin Peaks an eight or a nine.

Nearly every episode of "Twin Peaks" has good, or even great, moments in it. Also nearly every episode of "Twin Peaks" has about 30 to 35 minutes of filler: inconsequential scenes that do not advance the plot. If you do not adjust to this type of storytelling, you will not finish the series. So let me tell you right now: if you want the best it has to offer, you must watch the pilot, and episodes 1.3, 2.7 and 2.9; these will give you closure to the Laura Palmer murder. After episode 2.10, the series seems to lose its bearings: the main "replacement" storyline, Windom Earle as Dale Cooper's nemesis, is not nearly as interesting; comic relief, plot digressions and "guest" characters overtake the proceedings. Many of the principal characters have little to do, or are even written out. And then we have the final episode, in which David Lynch probably tries to recreate the experience of drug tripping, but basically he cannibalizes himself and gives you a bad trip. But do not despair! As I said, there are things to appreciate in every episode. The performances are amazing, especially by Kyle MacLachlan (whose Agent Dale Cooper is a unique creation in the history of TV) and Laura's killer, all the women are extremely beautiful (44-year-old Peggy Lipton may just outshine them all!), and Angelo Badalamenti's score (in all its orchestrations) is haunting and magical. *** out of 4 for the series as a whole.

I've recently started to watch Twin Peaks for the first time and I can say it already found its place among my favorite TV shows.My highlights of the show:The characters are so real. None of them really look like they are acting.As if a mutual mystery and weirdness spell was cast on all the characters, as a result they all act in equally weird ways. I have never seen such a masterfully organized orchestration of acting in such a similar tone.At times it makes you giggle non stop, at some scenes it makes you feel like you are being tortured, a torture that gives pain but you enjoy it at the same time and don't want it to end.Every single character plays their role in their scenes as if they are the lead character, at least the scenes create such an impression on you.Twin Peaks may not seem charming to some viewers, but if you like it, you will like it a lot.
