The Gardener

It was one of series who I wished to see. Starting from the point than I will like it. And, indeed, I liked it. For what I real expect - dark connection between a young man and his mother - the rings, the moments front to photo of her late mother, the dream about house from Mexico are great good points- and for connection of young Elmer with plants.

And , sure, the source of their prosperity , starting with radical reaction of boy to protect his mom, becoming a business.

I repeat, the only significant part was, for me, the romance between Elmer and Violeta, fake at whole. But, sure, the perspective of director matters. And for me, the good part is substancial.

In short, charming dark story.

Reading some of the reviews I came to the conclusion that,taste varies extremely in people. I mean ofcourse it'll be confusing for to chose to watch it only from other people's reviews. But here I'll try to give a very honest and no b.s review. For those people who don't want to ride an extreme emotional roller coaster,but still want something that they'll feel sorta touched with a hint of psychological thrill and romance than go for it. But if you're someone with an elite godfather typa taste in movies than it's definitely not for you.

It's a romcom with a serious darkness to it. A show that explores many shades of love maternal, romantical and even extramarital. The magic is the story's ability to keep the viewer uncertain on taking sides. A drama that examine the complexity and possessiveness in relationships between traumatized souls. Acting was sincere and emotional. Biggest highlight was the fresh background music. Great sound and visual effects. Though it ends in a bittersweet cliffhanger there's many major indications about a return. And for anyone who wishe to enjoy a TV show with a highly unqiue theme, Gardener wil be a perfect choise.

The aesthetics of the film are in another world, the gardens and setting up, truly delightful. Ending was mindblowing too. I loved the casting of the male and female lead, and the story gradually evolves into something better. One of the best part of the film is the dog ofc. It's like, the lovers try to pull apart from each other, but fate brings them closer together, in the most unexpected ways. Could the episodes have been short? Maybe. The main thing that attracts you to the story, is how the male character, slowly grows out of the shell that his mother had put him into, all because of something that happened, which she never expected. The plot twists are so good.

"The Gardener", one of Netflix new series of only 6 episodes, than heavens, is about a manipulative mother who dotes on her emotionally devoid son, who through her manipulative nature, coaxes her son to become a serial killer. An accident caused Elmer to have a brain tumor which makes him emotionless. This translates to the audience who is emotionless watching this poorly dubbed, poorly acted Spanish and ridiculously plotted series of characters who we don't care about, but are at least good looking." Sincere it is only 6 episodes I decided to watch the whole thing. If it was 10 or 12 episodes, I would have bolted after episode 3. Not the worse series on Netflix, but certainly not one of their best!
