Chosen

Plot with holes. Bad acting full of long slow scenes. A dreadful lead actor whose character behaves irrationally.

I sat through two and a half episodes. By that time I was about ready to gnaw my own leg off to get away. So I fast forwarded through the other episodes. In total I gave this silly program about 3 hours of my life that I'll never get back.

Do yourself a favour and do anything other than watch this.

I rated Chosen a 3 and I was being generous. Never have I ever rated a film or series so low. The worst part is I gave it two episodes to redeem itself though it was obvious from the very first scene it wasn't worth viewing. How could no one scripting, producing, directing, edition the mess not realize how completely bad it is? Chosen gets my vote for worst dialogue in film history.

Over half of this show is what I guess to be suspense build up. You get 25 cuts of someone walking, with music building up for every piece of dialogue delivered. There is no real explanation given for mostly everything going on and the characters aren't asking any.

The show also tries to focus in and spends way too much time on a love triangle thing that just does not work and adds needless sex scenes. It is like the entire story was written around a 17 year old girls sex life.

This series had some moments of intrigued, but, nonetheless, it is one if those series where you can fall asleep during part of an episode and when you wake up you didn't miss much!!!

Mostly here to counter-review the plethora of naysayers- it's entertaining and not about a bunch of bored American teens being ridiculous.

The comments about "bad parenting" seem almost scripted.
