Good concept, poorly executed.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Managed to binge the entire 5 seasons in one week! The acting is incredible. I laughed, I cried and I hid behind a cushion. It's got everything you could want from a psychological horror drama. Couldn't reccommend it enough.

First of all, I see reviews from people who have watched 3 episodes, or 8 episodes, or...you get the idea. I mean, come on! Unless you've watched the entire series then you simply shouldn't write a review. It's like watching half a movie and then reviewing it and expecting people to take your write up seriously. Sheesh!This show does a lot of things well...great acting (especially the two leads), great pacing (yes, it builds slowly and you need to stick around for more than one season), interesting subplots, a very dark main plot that was executed well, and the recreation of the motel and the central characters felt pretty authenticIt was interesting watching the events leading up to the happenings in "Psycho" and then watching an alternate version of what happened in that movie. Seeing it happen in current day was also pretty interesting.The problem I had was the behavior of two characters - Romero and Dylan. Romero's devotion to Norma and Dylan's devotion to Norman simply didn't feel right. There was no chemistry between Romero and Norma for him to all of a sudden decide to marry her and then fall in love with her to such an extreme level. But, I guess they needed someone with as much at stake regarding Norma as Norman had, so that they could pit those two against each other until series end. Alright, but it still doesn't fly.And Dylan started off of someone who was intelligent and had a good sense of right and wrong, someone who thought Norman was weird and Norma was his enabler. Then, as Norman got even more weird and even more dangerous, all of a sudden Dylan decided that protecting Norman was more important than anything else, even the safety of others. Well, that doesn't really fly either.Overall it was a good show, but I felt how these two characters behaved really was hard to swallow, and dragged the show down from 8 or 9 territory to something around 6 or 7.

The ever growing prequel to Hitchcock's 'Psycho'. The Mother/Son relationship is a little uncomfortable at times, but the whole storyline from episode 1 right to the end shows ever growing disturbing behaviour.

I had seen bits and pieces of this show over the past couple years but it looked terrible. I never gave it a chance. Well I was looking for something binge worthy on Netflix and the show came up and so I figured I'd give it a try. I binged the entire 5 seasons in a week. I really enjoyed the show and had tears in certain parts. I found it compelling and would recommend it to my friends who enjoy dark mysteries
