Slip

Maybe if this had been a 90 minute movie it would have been effective, but as a 6 episodes series it completely wore out its welcome. The overall premise of slipping between different realities with different partners was intriguing, but after a while it didn't really feel like the alternate realities offered much of anything new to the character's journey. The first episode also painted the husband in such a negative light that it was hard to believe the main character would spend the entire series desperately trying to get back to him. Sure, "the grass is always greener" and maybe her life wasn't as bad as she originally thought, but her attempts to get back to her old life felt obligatory and inorganic--and the ambiguous ending definitely didn't help.

Slip' initially promised an exciting journey into an alternative universe, but ended in a sea of clichés and predictable twists.

The main character, who initially seemed promising, developed into an indecisive and passive figure as the series progressed.

The supporting characters were little more than stereotypes that merely served to drive the plot forward.

Particularly distracting was the excessive focus on physical actions that offered no added value to the story.

The dialogue was often so wooden that it was more reminiscent of a bad soap opera. It's a shame that such an interesting premise was so carelessly wasted.

Is there anything hotter than Zoe? If there is I don't want to know about it! However this being said, and don't get me wrong, what a talent! Kudos! Huge achievement! And importantly I am really enjoying it, it's very entertaining and... Ya know what, I'm going to disregard and censor my chief criticism, because it's dialog related and frankly, there's no accounting for what one might say and the lingo they might adopt - so basically yaaa this review is turning into yet another white boy remarking on what a smoke show Zoe is... Soooooo yaaa sorry ( hey Zoe, dm me?) lol jk jk, I know this is not that.

This brief series should be binge-watched with zero expectations and zero distractions. Zoe Lister-Jones should be in the running for an Emmy for the scene in Episode 7 where she screams at herself and Gina shows up. I don't agree with other reviewers who say it could have been a 90-minute movie. Each episode was clearly separate from the previous and necessary. The different characters throughout are delicately braided throughout. Primary original characters, Gina for example, showing up throughout, make this fantasy story feel plausible. By the way, Mae's orgasms were definitely catchy. Hard to believe there were there was a film crew milling about!

I read a positive review in the Guardian and decided to watch it.

Shocked at how shallow and cliché it was, almost from the start. Nothing new, nothing special, all done before and to much better standards.

Towards the middle, it became clear, especially knowing that the writer is playing the main character, it's an exercise in self-indulgent writing and acting. Some scenes are cringe-worthy because of the basic script that's meant to sound deep on occasion, and the amateur acting.

Nothing memorable or redeemable; quickly becomes very predictable. I'm curious to know how this got funding and materialised into a seven-episode drama; but unfortunately fluff sells these days, more than ever.
