Alert: Missing Persons Unit (2023)
It's like a bad 90's soap opera
I am 3 episodes in and that is 3 too deep. It started off bad and it's just continues on that trajectory downhill as the season progresses. I feel like they made the actors study bad 90's soap operas and told them, "you see this!? This is fine acting right here. Do it just like them."
The long pauses, the exaggerated expressions, the physical awkwardness between all of the characters, the corny as heck lines. They even threw in a "steamy" scene in the evidence room, complete with Beverly Hills 90210 music and odd angles.
They really tried to put every character from every cop show into this one show:
There's the "weird techy girl," that "bad boy that doesn't play by the rules," of course a "boss bi*** that can take on anyone," and her "sensitive lover" that is supposed to be her boss, but we all know who's the actual boss. *eye roll*
Don't even get me started on the familial drama because it is so over the top it's equal parts hilarious as it is painful to watch.
I really hope this doesn't get picked up for another season.
Purple Hearts (2022)
I don't think they know what diabetes is like
Hollywood can, and should do better. It's 2022 and they still can't portray a disability right.
You can tell the actress didn't research her role very well, which is probably why the movie is mostly a cheesy military love story, they just added in diabetes for theatrics.
The acting and especially the singing, were pretty bad.
DO BETTER NETFLIX.
