You (2018-)

The extreme measures used by a romantic and charming individual to become part of the life of his obsessions.

An interesting series, quite intense at times, and a real tribute to Dexter (2006-2013) by reusing many of its original elements. The character with psychopathic traits is more romanticized, the  individual with cold blood features who sees only black and white is replaced with a neurotic character who distinguishes good and evil only when it suits them and uses self-manipulation to prove themselves that a certain intention is justified. Noteworthy, however, is also the ability of the series to manipulate the audience by making them believe from time to time that the main character's acts are nobler than they seem only to suddenly bring them back to reality through attitude changes that highlight the superficiality of the character.

Production: Netflix
With: Penn Padgley, Ambyr Childers, Victoria Pedretti, Elizabeth Lail

Rating: 8/10

  1. Hm... 8 i-ai dat? Mie mi-a plăcut mult serialul, însă tu păreai nemulțumită de calitatea lui.
