Firstly, I'd like to say that if this is Allen-Miller's directorial debut, she has a bright future ahead of her!

Everyone in the cast, from the main actors to the secondary characters is just superb and always add something to the story, making them memorable even if they appear just for a few minutes. Specifically, David and Vivian have great chemistry, the colors are bright, the camera angles are odd, the soundtrack changes so quickly without ever feeling misplaced or weird. In an era of big movies, this movie being just short of an hour an half and not feeling something is missing is truly a blessing.

It's just a great movie, simple and light but yet so funny and real. I really recommend it!

I accidentally watched the first episode and it reminded me so much of the board game The Werewolves of Miller's Hollow (it's literally the game in a TV show format) and it gave me such a nostalgic feeling and happy memories of playing with my family I just had to watch it.

It was okay, some of the things didn't make much sense but it still gets you hyped and anxious to see the plot twists and how the contestants (I would prefer just regular non-celebrities) are thinking. I do have to say I found it odd that it had such a lower score compared to the UK version and having watched just 1 episode of the The Traitors UK I understand why. If you're curious, being the same format it can still be a very different show.

It's still worth it and if you don't know might as well check out the board game too :)

The Offer is a Mini-Series produced by Leslie Grief (never seen anything from her) and Michael Tolkin who has proven to be a very good writer with The Player, Escape at Dannemora and more.

Obviously, the pivotal point of focus in this mini-series is The Godfather, arguably the best movie ever made but what stunned me the most was that soon you forget you're watching something related to The Godfather and you are engolfed by this force of nature that is Albert S. Ruddy.

It takes a vision of a genius to be that committed to something when everyone is against you and that applies to Ruddy but also for Coppola and Puzo. The cast is superb, Matthew Goode is carismatic and you can't take your eyes off of him, Juno is remarkable as a sidekick (her line of "Is it legal?" always gets me) to Ruddy and lastly, I loved Miles Teller on this mini-series and it may be some of his best work.

The look-alikes were very good, some uncanny. The storytelling is medium-paced (not slow but not very fast) and it locks your attention from beginning to end.

I really loved this show, watched it all in a week and if you haven't watched, it doesn't even matter if you're a fan of The Godfather or not (most likely you will be), you're still going to enjoy it.
