    This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

    Afouotos

    Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

    This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

    The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

    I am a fan of Alicia Silverstone and Mena Suvari and specifically glad to see Alicia's comedic timing in a drama/comedy used well Mena also is well cast and enjoy seeing them in this pretty show. Having experienced the 70's rather intimately, the comments that say the show does not reflect the era is quite true. Alicia's character having the strength ( at least at this point) of walking away is not so typical of the time, but nonetheless admired and as a TV program setting some lessons it works. Mena's character discovering her boyfriend is gay in the 70's would make her react much more dramatically. but still I am a fan so and it is a TV show. Just the writing could be better. Jennifer Bartels turns to meaningless sex for her escapes I knew women and men exactly like that back then. Overall would like to see the real affects on "Diana's Children which it seems to me has been glossed over and adjustment so far "I get now mom he is a a-h) some of that could be funny and much could be very emotional. I guess it's with the writer's oh well.

    This show is awesome because it doesn't compromise on the character of woman. It portrays women in there strengths. The strength and beauty of woman is not losing what makes them a woman and still forging ahead in a world that men created in his egotistical ways which makes it such a frustrating place to navigate.This show embraces the beauty and bravery of being a woman in a complex and backwards world.

    I really wanted to like this. I gave it a shot. It is not good. And considering how good it thinks it is, that makes it even worse. They must have spent a fortune on music rights, because the songs just keep coming along and along and along, which is unfortunate, because some really good writing and acting would have worked with these hits. Starting at the top, Alicia Silverstone sinks the whole thing. Whatever that voice is she's putting on... I'm not even sure what to write about it. But every time she opens her mouth to speak, I am forced out of the narrative and start to examine and critique what she's doing. Then there's the narrative. This is some of the worst television writing I have experienced in a long time. It is so obvious and literal and expository and weak. Okay, I'm done. Moving on to something that doesn't make me want to give up cable.

    It's telling that I turned to my wife and said "I get the impression this show about the 70s was written by someone who didn't experience it" and the first review I saw said exactly the same thing. I don't remember 70s women being anything like as oppressed as the characters in this show. On the contrary, there were iconic strong women role models. Charlie's Angels, The Bionic Woman even the Fall Guy for goodness sake, had women equal or better than their male co-stars, kicking ass and taking names.OK so that's just TV, but this show portrays men having a disdain for women that just isn't accurate. Feminism was alive and well in the 70s but without the anti-men slant that it has now.So in summary, I felt the show wanted to push an agenda rather than take me back in time to watch a slice of someone's life. The acting was ok, but given the experience of the actors, that's disappointing. They are capable of much more.I think I'm out.
