Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Married Baby Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Simphony Torres i guess i never cry and laugh and cry and feel so much with this series... i understook so much nate after lisa's death and claire, and of course the rest... but those two express so much deep emotions that it was real heartbreaking... i just could feel it all... so deep... i guess many of the characters are us and different ways and levels... makes us think so much about life and not to waste it in stupid fights and crappy thoughts.. so if u are a deep person and like and understand drama,this show is for u!

amcmahon-34983 I have just finished watching this series and along the way I have mostly enjoyed it. But now that it's finished and I look back it on I've realized every single character of the Fisher family, including Brenda, are the most self absorbed narcissistic people you could ever meet. Even in the end so was the mother Ruth. At the end of the day none of these characters gave a f**k about anyone else except themselves. Through the seasons you get to like then dislike the like again certain characters but ultimately at the end there is not one single one that you're rooting for. Was that the point of Alan Ball ? He must have had a very miserable childhood.

randyfreemire Liked this show for the most part, thought season two was substantially better than season 1, but there was something I just didn't like. I reviewed all the characters in my head and all the Fishers were fine- they each were compelling actors that held their own interest and problems in an engaging way. And then I looked at Brenda and her family and realized why something seemed off.For starters, they said she has a 180 IQ. That's ridiculously high, photographic memory and physics genius level, and at first, when she was being her flirty / flighty self she seemed at least brilliant, and I've always had a fascination for the genius types. But as the relationship with Nate got more serious and she became more her sullen / depressed / morose self, any real brilliance seemed to disappear and she seemed like an intelligent but thoroughly average neurotic person. My guess is that anyone with an impossibly high IQ like that would be an insatiable book reader, possibly endlessly creative (not all genius types are, some are more academic than creative), but in any case a force to be reckoned with, not this soppy character that Brenda turned into when things got real. What throws all of this over the top for me in just plain rejecting her and her family as anything I want to subject myself to, is seeing how depressingly horrible her family is, esp the mother, and in complicity, the father. I unfortunately watched one of the season 2 episodes before going to sleep last night and had the most awful sense of depression, having the example of the mental cruelty and obliviousness that the parents exhibit, passing their sickness to their children, and the helplessness that Brenda struggles with in not knowing how to move past it. I really can't believe the mother character, matricide would be a fitting end for her. It gave me some consolation that the Billy character seemed grounded and not caught in the miasma after being detached from the family when in the hospital and getting good help.Plain and simple I don't consider that entertainment or worthwhile on any level to see that level and kind of dysfunctionalty. It could be argued that if it upsets me this much and triggers my own sense of depression and helplessness that it's good writing/acting. But for the same reason I don't watch horror movies or anything that depicts unusually cruel and detached and sick people, I don't need that example in my brain. It's not as bad as witnessing violence first hand but it's a close second.Thumbs down to to the producers that felt they needed this kind of awfulness to "make it real" and be attractive to an American audience that is presumably jaded unless shocked. As it is, I'm not watching anymore of the second season or beyond, which is a shame.Otherwise, all the reflections on death, growing up and old, relationships, etc., I thought were well done and worth the watch.

bahamutwing Six Feet Under has some of the best content I have had the pleasure to watch in a television series. If you have yet to watch it, I recommend you do so. With that said I'll keep this warning spoiler free. The show is very good and engrossing through season 1 & 2. However throughout the rest of the seasons the character's literally loop their story lines. I won't go in too much detail but to give you an idea relationships that failed come back to fail again, people that have a brush with death come back to brush again. (Brush again?) The main characters, with the exception of one, evolve then regress so that they can evolve again. I think the best way to watch this show is to be attentive throughout seasons 1,2, and 5. Seasons 3 & 4 do not require your full attention. What helps more is after you have watched the show read up on the creator's comments about the characters. I myself was extremely frustrated with a central character whom I thought was a joke of a person. But I found great comfort that the character was supposed to represent what we don't want to be. And after that I enjoyed the show more the second time around years later. If there wasn't such an intense amount of filler in this series I would have rated it a 9.
