Somewhere Between

Okay, so I actually NEVER review shows but come on people!? Somewhere Between is actually a really interesting show with dynamic characters and boat loads of suspense. I'm confused by all of the negative reviews.

No, I've never seen the original Korean series so I didn't have the same expectations going into this. However, I did read these reviews. I actually deleted my recording and wasn't even going to give it a chance. Thankfully my parents told me they loved it. So I watched the first episode... then the second... then the third. My only complaint? I can't binge the rest of the series yet.

Is it the best show I've ever watched? No. Is it good TV? Yes.

I recommend you give it a try as well.

This is a strange little tale. It starts off badly, very badly. Hyper annoying children combined with some poor acting and a weak script almost had me close to turning off. Fortunately Episode 1 is no more than a premise set up and things improve significantly as the series progresses. An unbelievably drab looking Patton (still gorgeous) and Sawa as a burn out ex-cop do a decent job holding this together. It's not rocket science, but worthwhile for passing some cold winter nights in front of the TV.

The series starts out slow, I put the story develops nicely. Most of the acting is decent, but Paula Patton really can't act well. Even the kid actor does a more convincing job of acting than Paula Patton. Too many plot twists are cliche, corny and predictable, but still it was a good binge watch on Netflix.

Listen to the negative reviews. The acting in this is terrible and the child is irritating af and needs a proper slap. Can't even finish the first episode, I'm just sat eye rolling at every scene!

Goodness what a bad actress! Every move she makes is way over the top! The story is good but she is so over the top. Acting is about giving a subtle option to a situation. She is all over the place I think she needs acting lessons She needs to review her acting presentation She sighs all the time, her every facial expression is over the top which makes the viewer conscious of the fact that she is over acting. the other actors are OK which brings her exaggerated performance even more into discussion. enough!
