    Protraph Lack of good storyline.
    Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
    Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
    Phillida Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
    salazarjerrica This show is one of the best tv shows I have ever seen, I believe me when I say that I've seen A LOT. Though the show mainly aims towards a younger female demographic, I'd like to believe that age doesn't matter when talking about the issues and real life circumstances addressed in this show. As a 23 old women myself, I relate to not just one of the characters, but all of them. I love how the women in this show don't want to just "make it" as they are, but continue to strive for more. They hit on politics, business, relationships, friendships, and everyday life. If you've only given this show a one or two episode watch you are missing out. For those who have said that the characters are dull and have no growth, you are completely and irrevocably wrong. Give it a chance. You will not regret it. No tv show has ever touched me the way that this show has in just 10 episodes. Real women, real issues, real entertainment. That's what this show brings.
    baileyce This show is fantastic. Not only is it entertaining to watch because of the wonderful acting and ingenious writing, but the message displayed is truly unique. The strong feminist vibes are empowering and make me feel like I'm a part of a strong, passionate group of women who are fighting today's ever-so-prevalent misogyny and sexism, among many other concepts including homophobia and xenophobia. The Bold Type also displays character relationships in a way I've never seen before- for example, the boss, Jacqueline, is portrayed as an understanding, mother-like figure for the employees rather than the archetypal unfair and corrupt boss. I won't go into all of the show's unique forms of representation out of fear of revealing spoilers, but I will say this: I haven't watched an episode without feeling stronger, prouder, and more independent afterwards. The only thing this show lacks is a renewal for season 2 (which makes absolutely no sense because everyone should be watching!?!?)!! So please, watch The Bold Type, watch it legally, tell your friends about it, and most importantly, ENJOY!!!
    taylor the writing is horrible and the acting is mediocre. i gave it a shot and it was just very hard to keep my attention. i could barely watch 5 minutes of it without going on my phone out of boredom. this show tries too hard to relatable and it just fails all around. i do give them credit for speaking up about important topics but other than that this show is really boring to me. the only reason i want to keep up with it is to see how kat and adena's relationship grows and that's about it. maybe i should just look up their scenes on youtube instead of sitting through this show for an hour of my life.
    Orson47 This show desperately attempts to cover ALL of the bases at once. We have these twenty-something BFF's who all work for the same magazine in one capacity or another and are constantly under the gun from their know it all boss, who despite her gruff exterior is really just a sweetheart. She has the maternal instincts of someone who did a bad job as a mother for her own kids and now can take these three, mostly Jane, though, under her wing and mold them into fine young women who care about everything important all the time. Of course, they care about everything important except when it means that it will in some small way prevent them from getting ahead, getting laid or most of all landing that special someone...their soul mate! The best scenes are in the fashion closet where they can be their shallow selves and offer advice to each other or get it from the mother superior. The dialogue was written by someone who wishes everyone actually talks the way the script is written and acting is just not that good. All of them are attractive physically, but they have the depth of a kiddie pool. There are, of course, attempts at diversity both racially and sexually, but the actors are so very stereotypical that they lack any credibility. What is more interesting is how these young women afford the digs that they live in on their small salaries in a city we are led to believe is New York but is really Montreal. Rents are high there, too! I guess if you want a dose of unreality, then this fluff is perfect for you. I am sure in the end, each one of these women will achieve what they have set out to do: have an orgasm, land that job in high fashion, and figure out if being gay is really a bad thing when you know you can never tell your parents. These people need to have real problems like clogged sinks or head colds and then it might begin to resemble real life.
