Dark movies are a genre. Film noir is the customary name for them, though there are some not so dark. The Third Man is not exactly film noire since it lacks a female of evil, but it too is dark and much loved for it. If Ja,Ed Bond were an Israeli this would be his film debut. It is not a finished product and th second series is expected, at least by me. The acting is terrific. The story is complex, which fits the series format. It is well worth seven hours if one loves film, intreague and action films.

An attempt to change Fatal Attraction in every way fell on the floor with a thud. In the original the female stalker is a borderline, a known mental illness unfortunately found in women far more than men. Here in a man it does not work. I did not mind the flip of race to black nor the other changes but the film just does not hang together very well.

The director committed a breach of our trust twice by lying to us. I will not give those away here. Once a director does that I lose interest real quick.

It was refreshing to see a movie full of talented black actors when being black had nothing to do with the film for a change, on the other hand I am not willing to rate it higher just for that reason. It is a very bad movie and it's only benefit it reaches a very hungry Netflix audience who have been stuck home for months and seen every movie Netflix has to offer.

We are not sheep Netflix. This was just terrible.

I just loved it. I knew nothing about it but since I had been to Mumbai and the arch I thought I would give it ten minutes. I hated it when it did not go another hour. I did not want it to end. The acting is superb. It is not the usual Bollywood type of film. It is more like films from Europe fifty years ago. The cinematography was perfect. This movie should have won an Academy Award for best international film.
