What/If

What if is American thriller web television mini series. A very good storyline that will keep you hooked throughout with plenty of twist and turns. A good cast and Renée Zellweger is absolutely brilliant in playing the role no doubt. Was little slow to start with then it just gets better and better and it certainly kept me on the edge of my seat. Worth the watch

The only good thing about this is seeing Renee Zellweger in a role that is so unlike her and she pulls it off well. Until somewhere into the 4th or 5th episode they turn her into a caricature. Then it all goes downhill. The subplots had zero to add to the story. Coul've turned out better. Unfortunately it didn't. Worth watching while doing the laundry 'cause you have the TV on anyway. Not something to sit and watch and give it your full-on time and attention.

When Zellweger's not on screen, What/If is a mostly empty, broad strokes neo-noir soap, frothy and forgettable. When she appears, it's still all of those things-- but dear lord, please pass the popcorn.

I found this series pretty gripping with lots of twists and turns. People are complaining that there are three plots going on, why is that such a problem? All the plots and characters intertwine and form part of the whole. I usually prefer horror and science fiction, but this kept me interested until the end. I noticed that people who are criticising this say they kept fast forwarding through the bits they didn't like. Maybe people don't have the patience to watch complex plots anymore. Ok, some of it is a bit unbelievable at times, but aren't most things on tv nowadays. I enjoyed it anyway, not saying it's the best thing on tv or anything, but it certainly kept me wanting to watch the next episode. I fail to see why some people disliked it so much. For me, it was a pretty decent thriller.

I wanted to like this but unfortunately I've wasted nearly 10 hours of my life. As someone else wrote, you feel like you're watching three different shows and none of them were worth watching. This show should have focused on the biotech story rather than branching off into tangents thinly held together by minor actors.

Think of all the amazing things you could do with 10 hours, and then do those things instead.
