I can see why this show got cancelled in 1 season. It tried to maintain a viewership rather than a fandom, so the second half of the season got really bad really fast. The first 5-7 episodes for me were perfectly fine if you can stand the teen drama stuff. But I see no different between episode 8 and episode 22.

The characters going through the same emotional spillage every episode will give you fatigue, I don't care how hot you think they are. Some shows go for a Monster-of-the-week, but this shows goes for a MacGuffin-of-the-week. Many other shows like Eastwick or Witches of Eastend kinda went down this same path around the early 2010s and it showed it didn't work. I do give the show props for actually filming on location, it gave the show a feel that was more authentic than others, but it certainly ran dry real quick and became annoying that everyone was extremely petty.

This show would have actually been a way better idea if each season was a different circle and how they came to be.

I remember I loved this movie when I was a child and remembered a lot of certain things that never left me like the singing mice.

I put off rewatching the film because I was afraid that rewatching it would ruin my childhood and highlight faults in the film, but I was wrong.

The film still slightly tugs at the heart strings and the CGI was so sparsely placed that it didn't ruin the immersion. It's whimsical, it mixed English, Australian, and American cultures together and it was hard to really hate the movie when it was heartfelt and wasn't necessarily cringe. I recommend rewatching it, especially with your kids.

If you ever want a movie that is barked about as a masterpiece by the casual audience and yet riveting towards the higher echelon of Hollywood when in reality it is a pretentious popcorn movie that likes the smells of its own farts, you've come to the correct movie.

This is an instance of good writing that is grounded where Christopher Nolan takes it and gets a hard on for sensationalism with pretentious undertones. The icing on this cake is that of Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway who are emotionally driven actors by the human condition. This, without a doubt, had to be a script that they read and felt moved by and most likely "cried" at the end of reading which made them on board to make it. Mix in with the reputation of Christopher Nolan and we have this Hollywood-circle-jerk echo chamber which is most likely known to win an Oscar before editing even started.

I never truly enjoyed the movie in any part, but it did keep my interest for awhile. It was perfectly fine until the end when it really started getting up its own butt and take so many liberties with the storyline that you might as well have thrown the script away and just let Christopher Nolan play with different toys like a man child. Another Nolan speculative and ambiguous jabs to essentially avoid commitment to an idea and leave it up to the audience while he only pays attention to the visuals.
