i have no idea why i did this to myself
Pure torture. Episode 0 was very promising and the potential for the follow up series WAS THERE. However, the series did not start on a good note and it was progressively getting worse. The characters had no debt and even though they were flawed (which could have been a good plot point) they had no intention to change which led to zero character development. Especially after episode 5 (i think) it got insufferably boring. From some point onwards i watched out of pure curiosity (on x2 speed too bcs the episodes were unreasonably lengthy too and they could also get very repetitive at times) just to see how much worse this could get. All in all, a waste of my time.P.S. i think the actors did as much as they could with what they were given and i do have to acknowledge that there was progress to their acting since skinship (which i watched the first episode of and it was enough for a lifetime).

not as bad as i expected but still disappointing
Assuming that this story is being told by some drunk university students (as seen in the very first scene) then this series may make some sense. The pacing was questionable to say the least and the scenario was very weak. Rak had no personality whatsoever and Dino was possessive even of the air that Rak was breathing. Chalam and his omelet were the only redeeming qualities in this whole show. Unfortunately for them, kissing scenes could not fill neither the script nor the plot holes. All in all, it was bad but I'm pretty sure I have seen worse.Was this review helpful to you?
Mary was very ahead of her time
I remember stumbling upon this movie on tv when I was around 14yo and finding it very bizarre, confusing and overall I did not enjoy it much. Now, many years later, I didn’t really remember much of it and decided to rewatch it. Needless to say, I was not disappointed at all. Very witty and straight to the point. Mary’s last year of high school could be described as frantic as she went through oppression, loss and rejection in the span of 410 twits (somewhere close to five months). However, the comedic aspects of the movie were what called out to me the most. The plot of it may not be the most original one, as it really is mostly about how a teenager is facing the world in the fragile age of seventeen, but the format in which the movie was made was the turning point which made it distinctive and characterful. I also have to mention that the cinematography was brilliant and it really did pay a lot to the story. Overall, this movie is criminally underrated.P.S. Mary in 2024 would have definitely been an Instagram poet.
