Losing Alice

Stick to Adam Sandler movies, leave the good stuff to people who understand it. This is definitely the good stuff; intense, with superb acting and directing, Losing Alice is the total package. It does give off Lynchian vibes and in the best way - it's not nonsensical and never too meandering, it's a tightly plotted and complete story. There are multiple unforgettable scenes and I know I'll be replaying them in my mind for months to come; in short, this is an amazing show.

This series was compelling, even though it confused and disturbed me at times. One troubling feature was the relationship between David and his mother. What the hell was that all about? Every adult in this film is messed up. But it was still intriguing enough, that I binged all of it in a day and a half.

I think it is a decent show. Strange at times, but hey sometimes those are the ones that go out with a bang. I was able to watch with English being dubbed over. If it weren't for that I probably wouldn't have cared for it as much. Don't get me wrong I can read, but Apple is a US multinational company that makes over 2 trillion a year. With that being said take the time to dub a series or a film.

Some reviewers are complaining about the spoken language. And that they have to help themselves by subtitles. Do they realise that not the whole world is speaking English ? I'm Flemish, speaking a kind of Dutch. Since our whole live we always watch a non-Dutch spoken thing by subtitles. Always ... We sometimes do understand, and speak some other languages, where under English. So please, be aware of what you criticise concerning the native language of a film or serial. It's a kind of being respectful. About 'Losing Alice' itself : we just watched the first episode. It's hard stuff. So, we wait with an final opinion until we've seen more.

The progression of the Israeli production keeps improving but, still far far away from a quality level production.. i would admit that Ayelet Zurer's acting is the only thing that kept me going watching the show, she is a good actor that shines and makes me forget the the show does not fully takes me there. The rest of the cast is ok but nothing to get over excited acting wise. The concept is good but could have done much better.

The lighting has no sense of mood in most cases and story telling, the location choice is just not working for the desired motives and suspense and seam like whatever was available to shoot in. Mediocre cinematography and camera work. Good concept but low budget execution.
