We definetly need more tv shows like this. The heartbreak and the joy, the portratization of being queer and ignored(invisible), the frustrations we go through.

This series literally filled my heart. It destroyed it too, a bit. I was on the edge of my seat while watching the boys' story give real insight of what it is really like to be queer in a small town, and not just that. "Invisible boys" shows what is like to be just human, to be a mother, to be a friend, a lover or a fiancée, to literally just exist. We often feel stuck to a place, unable to move(away or on), and this series portrays it perfectly. It is not just the LGBTQ+ experience that is described with both beauty and sorrow, but the universal experience of being human and what it means to love, to love yourself or others.

I think the actors did a wonderful job fitting into the roles of Charlie, Zeke, Hammer and Matt. I felt and cried with them. And their story, their individual stories and their love stories, they just made me want them all to be happy. And I dearly hope that this tv show will get international recognition and praise, so I can dare to imagine we someday we will also get a 2nd season, to see how the boys are coping to their brand new lives.

Exactly when the movie seemed to redeem itself, like it was finally heading on a better path- it abruptly ended. I understand the writers might want to leave an open window for a potential 2nd movie, but I think the plot could have been worked with in order to give us something else. There are thousands of ways they could have made this, and the result certainly wouldn't have been this quirky, edgy failed attempt to what could have been otherwise an interesting film. They somehow created sparkling details- the atmosphere, the confrontatione, even the characters were interesting enough, and I adore Red, I see pontential in her character development. But it totally lacked what the original series had: good songs, and the magic that overall glued all the other elements together.

The songs have absolutely nothing near the vibes of the original series. I would rather say all the songs sounded like badly timed pop songs. All the essence from the original series- gone.

This gets 1 higher mark purely for how beautiful they made Wonderland look, and even Merlin Academy.

Like everybody else, I had higher expectations. Like Red & Chloe, I wish I had a time-turning clock, so I could give this movie a higher time-ranged, and a not-so-rushed plot.

This mini-series totally deserves a 10-stars rating. It is in fact, in all its complexity, a fallen star- it shines, makes you wonder, and it gives you hope for the future.

There are no right words to describe it, there are just lines and lines of slurred letters scattered on a canvas. And they all together create this wonderful cinematic exposition.

If you managed to come across 'Lost Boys & Fairies" and there is something in your gut telling you to watch it- DO IT. Those 3 hours were a total rollercoaster of emotions, and surely you hear that a lot, about a lot of films and tv shows. But 'Lost Boys & Fairies' is not a simple show, as cliché as this sounds. During its duration of 3 hours, it often feels intimate. It offers breath-taking scenes amazingly portrayed, it offers joy and grief, and it is wonderful how we were given such a closure after everything that happens.

Of course, the story is not finished. It is incomplete, it left me wanting more, but it is also...cyclic, and it is giving the show the best ending. It is heartbreaking, and heartwarming. It attacks your heart with every line the actors so perfectly deliver, it attacks your brain with the subjects it grasps: self-acceptance, grief, addiction, losing your lifeline, queerness and its broad spectrum, reconcilliation.

It truly is a show for absolutely anyone, it has something for anyone. You will certainly find yourself relating to at least one character. So give it a go, give it 3 hours to play with your heart.
