Watching Sabrina I'd say we are toe-stepping somewhere between great dark scenes and ideas, cringe , plot armour and woke culture.
The show has some undeniably strong scenes with really dark vibes. While I totally enjoy this aspect of the series I believe this is where the good things end.
The acting is mostly terrible. Unconvincing. Even the protagonist seems to not believe herself the role she is portraying. The dialogue and plot revolving around her , her friends , her bf and everyone really, is painfully cringe and unreasonable. And the worst part is it happens regularly.
Plot armour, every time something happens, even if it is a cosmic scale event that even the greatest of figures would tremble upon , Sabrina will find the most simplistic way to overcome or cheat her way through or someone will show up just in time to rescue her . Meanwhile she is claiming to be driven in the name of justice , truth and honest effort and talent, against all wrong doings which makes her whole character hypocritical and boringly unbeatable. There is just no way Sabrina loses.
Besides the acting and plot being silly , we have constant comments regarding the sexes, woman superiority and male unworthiness. It is to be expected since this is a Netflix show but still pretty annoying to try and push this woke agenda so hard on us.
If you take a step back from great visual effects and some good and dark ideas we are given a story which most of the time makes no sense or evolves in the most childish manner. It is a shame. We could have a story really worth watching.
Maybe I am getting too old for YAS?
