La última noche en Tremore Beach

Hands down, one of the best scripts ever written, just phenomenal. It's very slow, you need to get through first 3 episodes before the story starts to reveal. And even then it will take you through a labyrinth of characters' stories and lifes, slowly making you wander what exactly are you watching.. It plays with you by tricking you to think it's one genre or another, you don't what to expect and where it all goes- until in the last few episodes the main story shines. And it is slow on purpose - it gives you a chance to think about all the possible dots you need to connect, it makes you live through the story in the way that will make you scream in the end when that plot twist is going to reveal. That plot twist is totally worth it. This is incredibly enjoyable if you make it through the first couple of episodes.

The series was very thought provoking. I believe the writers attempted to take on determinism vs free will, the theory of one universe vs a multiverse, and second sight.

The protagonist takes on the role of an arbitrator of these current human conundrums. As a viewer (spectator) we enter the realm of this discussion as he attempts to reach a satisfactory personal outcome.

The realm being an electrified state of a human mind seeking to understand a glimpse of the multiverse (second sight). Where every choice a human makes generates a universe consistent with that choice. The visions (sight) not being limited by the narrow constraints of the "in the present first sight" of the electromagnetic spectrum.

In the multiverse where every choice (or one wrong note) propels us into unforeseen possibilities or a deterministic path? The protagonist's must journey through a branching realm piecing fragments of visions together like solving a puzzle. He must puzzle out the branching by discovering how the choices of the others determine his choices. He must work out lies, half truths, and the agenda of an unknown antagonists.

His/our understanding concludes that thoughtful deliberation of our choices will improve our universe.

I felt the protagonist and supporting actors that had a significant role were spot on in their characterizations. The production and performances deserves an Emmy nomination.

This series is actually a psychological story that explores the influence of the mother on the main character, a common theme in psychology. The series has a great soundtrack, and the cinematography is excellent. However, the plot could have been better-there are many illogical and unfinished elements. What was particularly irritating is that the main character whispers throughout every conversation with the other characters, which literally drove me crazy. Still, the series is watchable, though nothing exceptional. Additionally, the landscapes where the series was filmed are truly stunning and take your breath away.

In my almost 60 years of age, I've never seen a male character in a movie or tv series so pathetic, so unmanly, so annoying, that I wished he was already dead by the second episode. He spends all 8 episodes crying like a little girl, because god only knows, he's the most tormented man alive. His mommy issues make his life so miserable, even when he has a beautiful woman who loves him, and whose life has been much worse than his but you don't see her complaining or crying all over the place. Yes, the ending has an interesting twist, but it takes too long to get there. Half way through the series you already wish for someone to put the protagonist out of his misery. He's just a poor excuse of a man, so weak and useless that is almost impossible to feel empathy for him. The series could have been great if it was told in half the episodes with a stronger lead character.

I could't agree more with most of the viewers who thought that it was a dissent story, excellent cinematography, and good acting from the main characters.

But going back and forth with so much unecessary detail, not helping at all for the undrstanding of the story, let alone the pace of the series was really tiresome.

By the 4th episode I caught myself going fast forward in most of the remaining episodes.

Good ending though, after the last two episodes which were really trying (and achieving) to confuse you totally as to what is reality, dreaming, past, future and present. So I guess it was worth it at the end.
