Slow. Just...Slow

Okay, Black had one of the most exciting premises that I've ever seen, but it just coudn't perform it well, and it's one of the first dramas that I'm dropping with a tiny bit of pain in my heart. [So cold, wow!]
First, I think this drama desperately tried to make gross scenes to catch attention or cause shock. I watched enough horror movies/dramas to know that you can make it at least interesting. In this drama, it was boring and...just gross, nothing else.
Boi, it was slow. Oh my god. Even when I watched movies who were purposely made to be Slow Burn, I didn't have this feeling of "Okay I get it. I really get it. Can we just go past it?".
I like and dislike the random scenes. Cause' they aren't just for the ramdoness, they are there for a purpose and Black performs it well in that part. I guess that it just makes stressing because it's just ramdoly thrown there and after a very few moments that look like hours, WOW IT FINALLY MAKES SENSE - The thing is, you are left in the blue. And it just becomes boring, It just makes it seem like I'm in an parallel universe in relation to the drama.
The acting is okay. But not like, extraordinary. It's just okay. Sometimes it really looks like people there are trying hard not to fake it. I guess the Grim Reaper did a good job though.
Like I said, the premise is so interesting, and in sometimes you look at some scenes and think "Wow, if it was performed in a good way, it would've looked amazing"
I know that my critics may be kind of harsh, but I really didn't say them for the sake of being mean. I think it's good to look at reviews and look at the pros and cons, good and band comments,. Dont take everything that I said at heart though, it may be an bad experience for me, but maybe not for others, and I apreciate all the work everyone envolved in Black did.
