High Fidelity

Writing this review in hopes of helping this show get renewed because it most DEFINITELY did not deserve to be cancelled!! Zoe is flawless, the characters are all incredible, beautiful character development, chemistry, and a fantastic soundtrack of course. give us season 2!!!

Even though I don't like the main character (acted extremely well though - just not likeable) I find the supporting characters are the shows shining lights. They are all fun, interesting, relatable & quirky.

But the main star is of course the vinyl. Good tunes, memories & well, it's vinyl. Love it.

A very cool character driven show...that whilst their decisions will have u throwing stuff at the TV - ultimately it's a fun ride. Cheers beers.

Fantastic music, good entertainment, loved the vibe

Just finished first 3 episodes and it's definitely better than expected. Not sure I agree with all the negative reviews on here. It's more of an homage to the original vs. a straight remake.

Top 5 Pros/Cons

Pros:

• Cast is great especially Zoe Kravitz. Makes for a great female version of Rob
• Music is excellent (just like in the original)
• Because this isn't condensed into a 2 hour movie, there's more time to flesh out the different relationships

Cons:

• Not really a negative as Jack Black owned the original role, but the actress playing his role on the series isn't as good
• Does repeat a lot of the same scenes and situations in the original, but not always a negative as they have more time to expand on some of these situations (I.e. Ian / Lily)

The original High Fidelity is one of my top 10 favorite movies of all time, so was hesitant to watch this given all the negative reviews. But I'm glad I did as it's been pleasantly surprising after the first 3 episodes. If you enjoyed the world of the original High Fidelity and watch the series as a homage to it, you'll enjoy it like I have so far.

High Fidelity is one of my all time favorite books and movies. I'm not a fan of rebooting everything, so my expectations were low... the fact that Zoe's Mom was in the movie was the connection that made nge check it out. The story is fantastic and so far the story is a nice take on it. Definitely worth your time... regardless of the reviews from the fragile reviewers who can't handle a woman in a role previously held by man, say. It's not a stretch. It's a different feel. But different isn't always bad.
