Chosen - Prescelta

I rated Chosen a 3 and I was being generous. Never have I ever rated a film or series so low. The worst part is I gave it two episodes to redeem itself though it was obvious from the very first scene it wasn't worth viewing. How could no one scripting, producing, directing, edition the mess not realize how completely bad it is? Chosen gets my vote for worst dialogue in film history.

The story kept me interested, and there was intrigue. Enough that I watched the full series in a short space of time. The Sci-fi elements were really good. It was enjoyable at moments, but it was far from problem free. One of the main plot points I saw coming from the word go.

BUT I disliked how unhealthy many of the relationships between the characters were. I was hoping for a teen, let's discover ourselves whilst we uncover this mystery and get to the truth. There was so much backstabbing, and all the characters hurting each other a lot.

Also no one actually talked to each other, instead they jumped to conclusions, lied, and often did something stupid behind someone's back. With the exception of Marie, she was the only really likeable character.

Emma even did this to her Mum. Mads was actually vile. A lot of these things were often different to how the characters started out, and seemed to be there just to forward the plot.

I can honestly understand the mixed reviews to this.

This series had some moments of intrigued, but, nonetheless, it is one if those series where you can fall asleep during part of an episode and when you wake up you didn't miss much!!!

Mostly here to counter-review the plethora of naysayers- it's entertaining and not about a bunch of bored American teens being ridiculous.

The comments about "bad parenting" seem almost scripted.

Over half of this show is what I guess to be suspense build up. You get 25 cuts of someone walking, with music building up for every piece of dialogue delivered. There is no real explanation given for mostly everything going on and the characters aren't asking any.

The show also tries to focus in and spends way too much time on a love triangle thing that just does not work and adds needless sex scenes. It is like the entire story was written around a 17 year old girls sex life.
