Forever (2014)
Good start,later becomes disappointing...
As a fan of detective stories and sci-fi,this show was first on my list of must-watch in 2014/2015. It started really good,with interesting plot and greatly chosen cast, Ioan Gruffudd playing the immortal medical examiner is very good choice.
But,as the episodes continued,the plot stayed undeveloped, only concentrating on the murder solving theme,and neglecting the main cause,the immortality.It doesn't explain how Henry got it or any clues on how to end it. Adam keeps showing up,with no background explanations and no significance,the only fact we know about him is that he is immortal and a bloody psychopath.
Another thing that bothers me a lot is that Henry seems to play detective and boss,and Jo and the other cops just listen and follow him around blindly. I've expected more initiative from Jo,a little more attitude and knowledge about her profession and profiles of the people she arrests.There is no developing in her character,or any depth and appeal.
The chemistry between both main characters is there,but it needs more spark,deep talks and situations where they can feel close to another.
I believe there is place for improvement, I've seen far worse shows,but they need to fix those details if we want to see another season.
Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani (2013)
Simple Bollywood romance!
I'm surprised to read so many negative comments about this movie,when it isn't that bad at all.I don't know what everyone expected,but I expected romance,some Indian humor,lot of singing and dancing,and that what I got. The acting is pretty solid,especially Ranbir Kapoor. To me,his character doesn't seem selfish,only arrogant in some moments.He chose to follow his dreams,and that shows confidence and bravery.
On the other hand,Naina is the conservative geek,but only because her mother affected her too much.Deep inside,she is cool and fun to be around,which Bunny successfully got out of her.
There isn't anything to think through,everything is so colorful and musically described,you just have to sit back and enjoy. No need to over analyze the characters or the plot,because its just a simple romantic comedy,about love and friendship,and the youth when we have wild dreams,we don't think,just act and drink a lot!!
To sum up,I'll only add that the only thing that bothered me was the length, it could've been 100 minutes and still fun to watch.
