Synchronic (2019)

Two paramedics encounter very bizarre consequences caused by overdoses of a new and popular drug.

'Synchronic' is a sci-fi film with melodramatic accents. Interesting, beautifully made, and with characters that the viewer cares about. It tries to asks philosophical questions related to the evolution of evil, the evolution of humanity and the effect on nature, without forgetting the heart of the action.

Director:  Justin Benson, Aaron Moorhead   

With: Anthony Mackie, Jamie Dornan, Katie Aselton, Ally Ioannides

Rating: 8/10

The Fall (2013-2016)

A cat and mouse chase involving a complicated policewoman caught up in the investigation of a series of crimes and a family man leading a parallel life causing these crimes.

A fascinating series in which we are presented with two very complex personalities in their indirect duel in two opposite roles, criminal and investigator, but both actually just a different type of hunter. Extremely subtle, every detail of each moment is constructed with delicacy and respect for the viewer. Gillian Anderson is fascinating in the role of Stella, an almost cold but extremely calculated personality, passionate about her work, and an almost perfect human analyst. Jamie Dornan is terribly fit for the role, so convincing in his duality that it raises suspicions about his real persona.

It is a perfect police series, but it's not suitable for those looking for speed and fast action.

Production: BBC

The Fall (2013-2016)

O cursa de-a soarecele si pisica implicand o politista complicata in investigatia unei serii de crime si un tata familist ce duce o viata paralela cauzand aceste crime.

Un serial fascinant in care ne sunt prezentate doua personalitati complexe in duelul lor indirect in doua roluri opuse, criminal si investigator, dar ambii un tip aparte de vanator. Extrem de subtil, fiecare detaliu al fiecarui moment este construit cu delicatete si respect pentru spectator. Gillian Anderson este fascinanta in roul Stellei, o personalitate aproape rece, dar extrem de calculata, pasionata de munca sa, si un analist al oamenilor aproape perfect. Jamie Dornan este teribil de potrivit in rol, atat de convingator in dualitatea sa incat cauzeaza suspiciuni asupra persoanei sale reale.

Este un serial politist perfect, dar nu este potrivit pentru cei ce cauta viteza si actiune rapida.
