Blue Ridge

A poorly made series that they accidentally made as a movie with Native culture, admirable stuff, tons of cliches, more unrealistic situations that you can count, dialogues that were written by schoolboys, an estranged wife Elli that gets hives by just touching Justin, not a single kiss throughout the whole ordeal.

After that, 2020, four years later they realized what a mistake they made, wanted to get it better, but actually made it far worse. Seriously, the series is a little worse by miles, though I enjoyed both mildly.

Not really a star studded cast but the cast worked very well together. I was expecting a 4-5 Star after reading reviews. I was pleasantly surprised. This was a really good movie! And not predictable! I didn't see it coming! Highly recommend!

Melodramatic in the second half, only heightened by a score lacking all subtlety. The acting is sketchy at times, but watchable. It's a PG film, definitely aiming to be Family Friendly, so cutting it a bit of slack is in line. I didn't crack the murder case before the Sheriff did, and the outcome did make sense, so it gets an extra point from me. No need to slam it, people. I've seen much, MUCH worse.

Actually didnt mind the story, liked it and could be a series BUT stop the horrible back ground music !!!!! Understand the whole hartfield macoy feud fine in the Appalachian hills but again got a headache from the over the top dramatic background music.

This easily rates a 7.5, uf not higher! Exceptional acting all-around>> no weak characters! They all had substance, flaws, REAL PEOPLE feel, if that makes sense! The sheriff of course with his past, coming back to his town. The ex-girlfreind and mom to his 12 yr old daughter meshed perfectly with the main story>> You kno they try to fit in a partner, but there's no need? This one involveds her nicely! The daughter rven had a nice part. The Great story line; no plot holes I could find anyway. Wonderful, satisfying ending! Wish I coukd find more like this!

The music matched what was going on perfectly, also I might add.
