ravmeltt's reviews

Well said by commenter nik-mirko. I couldn't have said it better myself. No wonder there was only one commenter. Such a disappointing ending to an otherwise interesting show, but the end took away from the beginning and the whole middle.

I cannot understand what the writer was thinking of, to bring the show to a close like that. To me, there was no reason to.

We all got a clue midway who the real mother was it brings me to that show, was it Twin Peaks? Or the show with the 4 friends and one got pregnant, and it took the whole show and the ending episode to find out who the person was who had gotten pregnant. They had ended it tastefully.

Not so with Letters from the Past. A good effort, but a terrible ending and leaves one feeling thirsty, yet given juice instead of water and therefore still feeling dehydrated. A disappointing end.

I enjoyed this little nugget of a film. I also like Ben Kingsley since Gandhi. I think he's a phenomenal actor. Harriet reminds me of Ann Dowd. I like them both. I also like Jane Curtin from since Kate & Allie days.

I really enjoyed the picture, but two things I have to comment negatively on. One, was it necessary to have three loud obscene words in a pg show? Is that what we're teaching our kids, to let out a very loud and obscene word if they get shocked about something? Harriet (Sandy) let out the "eff" word when she saw the alien. Was that word necessary for an elderly woman to use in a pg film?

Secondly, the ending. Why does it seem that some Hollywood directors can make an interesting show but don't know how to close it. I did not like the ending. It seemed like they did not know how to give it a satisfactory end. Other than those two comments, I did like it.

I can't understand some of these reviews here on this show. I started it yesterday and it has gripped me from the first moment. It's going very interesting and I'm on episode 2. Can't wait for more.

I interrupted my work just to see what's next. How can people say such bad things about this? If you're looking for drama and excitement, then it's here. Someone even said there's no chemistry with the lead stars. What? Something is wrong with you hopeful critics.

Please don't listen to them. Watch the show for yourself. I remember when Red Riding Hood with Amanda Seyfrield came out, and I went to the cinema to see it. I loved it and raced home to do a review. I was shocked by the negative reviews. It was then that I determined never to follow other people's reviews but to watch a show for myself.

I read these reviews before I started The Night Agent and I'm glad I ignored those reviews because I am enjoying the show immensely. Will do another review when I finish it.

I had to write when I read the negative review of one of the reviewers who said this episode was horrible and garbage. I find it was very interesting, emotional and realistic.

I liked how Fin handled the case. The guy Dutch had me worried a bit. He kept asking questions and I was afraid that he was going to go off the deep end and do something drastic and stupid. I'm so glad he didn't.

Someone said that the statute of limitations were passed and that the CO and the rapist would not do time; I'm not so sure but I like a satisfactory ending.

I think Fin couldn't open the Dil jar because he had been drinking earlier and I'm sure that weakened him. They weren't trying to say he was old or had arthritis. I don't know where some people come up with these things.

All in all I thoroughly enjoyed the episode. I think the next one is the finale for the season (tonight) and looking forward to it.

I saw the preview for this and while it does look exciting, it reminds me of The Catch which starred Peter Krause and Mireille Enos. He was a fraud/conman and she was a detective hunting him down. And of course they fell in love. It lasted only 2 seasons.

I will watch the pilot of this tonight (Feb 29th) and maybe do a second review. I do hope it lasts longer than the Catch did. There are so many shows now on TV and it's like a fight to see what you can watch.

I do like Peter Krause who is currently starring on 9.1.1. And I like Mireille Enos who was in Hanna. I also loved her in The Killing.

Let's hope The Company We Keep is kept for a long run.

I've just started watching this and I had to pause it to give a comment. When the child was about to go to school, the mother who had planned to stay home with him, allowed him to go to school. And she said if he's not okay there, call her.

No way a black mother was reacting like that. Firstly, she was not allowing him to go to school so soon without getting some counselor or family member or pastor involved. And she was heading to a lawyer to make waves. I can't believe this mother's calm reaction. Maybe she might get better but her initial behavior is too calm. I'm a black person and I can tell you no female family member of mine was having that low-keyed reaction like hers.

Anyhow let me continue watching. Will respond again at the end of the full show.

Love the show. At first when I saw the title, I said no way I'm watching that. But one night I decided to watch an episode, then binged the 2 seasons over 2 nights.

Love all the characters. Does anybody find that Sylvie reminds you of Swoosie Kurtz from Mike & Molly? Every time I look at her I think of Swoosie. She's just a younger version but they could be sisters!

I don't know why some men are so persistent. I guess the heart wants what it wants. I don't understand why James was so persistent in pursuing Helen when she was already engaged to someone else. If you're attracted to someone but they are already involved, move on! Love is a decision. Nd you can decide to move on and seek love elsewhere.

As someone said here, Helen is a farmer and James doesn't really like farming, so look for someone with your same interests, else by the time marriage and 2 children come along, someone might be longing for something different. So I didn't like James 'mooning' over Helen and I feel sorry for her fiance. (But I didn't see the episode so I don't exactly know why Helen broke up with him).

I've just finished watching this series for the second time, and I think I may wait a few days and start it all over again. What a beautiful show. I sobbed like a baby just now in the ending, even though I saw it the first time a few weeks ago. The show is just simply beautiful, wonderful, exhilarating and many more adjectives.

I loved all the leads, despised none except the grandfather, but he was acted exceptionally as well.

I fell in love with the king (the prince/princess), Royal Scribe Jung, her love interest. Oh my that I was years younger and in Korea! As the crown prince/king, the female lead was wonderful. Her expressions, her mannerisms, everything was so well acted! And Scribe Jung - so handsome, and when he blushes or looks at her with love, you just want to melt.

The acting overall was superb, and I cannot tell when I last enjoyed a show like this. I watch a lot of Netflix shows, I even watched Squid, and I watched Bridgerton twice, but I am in love with the King's Affection and have really been blown away.

I gave this 10 stars and if I could have given it 20 I would. If you haven't watched this yet, and you love a good story with good drama, romance, love, action, fighting and excitement, then put this as top priority on your list, and then come back and write about it. I'm reading every review! I can't get enough of this show.

I must say this is my first period drama Korean series, and it did not disappoint! Even though I had to read continuously because there was no English dubbing, only subtitles, I wouldn't have it any other way. I need to watch and hear this show in their language.

I fell in love with the Prince, I must say, and I'm probably twice or more his age! He had me from the get go. I liked him when he first had his memory, loved him when he had lost it and when it returned.

The acting on both his part and I-seo were wonderful, and all the actors too were superb. I have some favorites. I liked Gul-do I think he is, and even Lord Park made me laugh so much times. I loved I-seo's father. He was such a simple yet smart man.

I hated the First Vice Premier, and couldn't wait to see his die. But he is a good actor too. People have been talking about Bridgerton, I am one of those. I love Bridgerton. But I can tell you that I put this show up there right with it. I couldn't get enough of this. As soon as I finished the 16th episode, I went right back to episode 1, just like I did with Bridgerton, and I'm now on ep 3 of 100 days again. I'm also watching The King's Affection.

These producers and writers are very good. Only Korean shows are popping up now on my Netflix feed, and I can't wait to watch more. Give this show a try and you will definitely become addicted. The love scenes were so pure and sweet, and that's what I also love about these. They're enjoyable, they have action fighting, drama, and love, and makes for a beautiful yet "clean" and pure story. I do love my prince. Watch it people and enjoy.

This episode blew me away. There is such a twist and a reveal in the ending of the episode that I can't wait for next week.

I can't say anything without giving something away so that's all I'm gonna right, but this show is very exciting. It reminds me of how I felt watching the 4400 when it aired a couple of years ago. Wonderful series, both that and this, La Brea.

This is pronounced La Bray yer, but where I'm from, we have a place with the same name, but it's pronounced La Bray. Just an extra thought for you readers.

This show blew me away. Before I finished episode 5 I went back and started it over. When I finished the last episode (episode 6), I was so stunned, so I went back and watched over episode 1!

I plan to rewatch 2-5 and maybe even 6. It was that good.

A must see drama, suspense and mystery if that's what you're looking for.

I must say I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. I saw it pop up in my Netflix and decided to watch it, and I was not disappointed.

Melissa McCarthy is such a comedian, and you expect to see that in the movie, and while it had it's comedic parts, it was such a beautiful story.

The starling was a star in its own right, and the acting was lovely, especially by Melissa and her TV husband I think his name is Chris Dowd.

I did not make out Timothy Olyphant. He looks so different from when he was in the series Justified. Kevin Kline was good as well. All in all a lovely movie and I would recommend it if you're looking for a movie to lay back, relax and enjoy.
