The internet mob has come for this show and I really do not understand why.
First of all Marcél Rev´s photography is remarkable on this and worth noting. Just his photography alone is worth 5 points of rating alone.
It seems to me that most of the people that are giving this such bad ratings have a narrow minded idea of what a motion picture / show has to be. Be it the flow of the show, the dialogue, the explicit parts and the way that the actors interact, this show is different from what people normally expect and it does not mean it is the worse thing ever...
The show has tones of nordic (danish, norwegian, swedish) movies, of their weirdness and absurd vibe.
I do understand the worry about exploiting women's bodies, but Depp is clearly okay with it and proud, she understands the piece that they are building and the need for those shots.
Art shouldn't have to meet the rigorous Instagram criteria's and censorship. If people find this too graphic maybe they should press pause after seeing the maturity rating of the show.
I feel like this would have a lot better ratings in a pre-euphoria fandom era, with a more matured audience. I am certain that this is getting a lot better ratings in europe than in the states.
With this said, this is definitely not my favourite show, and I normally do not write reviews, but I do find this rating so skewed from reality that I felt the need to write one.
It does have some not so great parts, but I feel like the show is a good effort at what it is trying to convey.
This was written at episode 2, I will watch the rest of the show.
