Brilliant plot, really makes you think. If you love films about moral dilemmas and complex characters, this is the movie for you. It even has some comedy in it that fits into the movie very well.
Had to take off a star because there was a thought bugging me the whole time I was watching: did he really not notice that something was off until he was an adult? Or did he just repress the feeling?

If you are on the fence. PLEASE watch the first 5 seasons, you will not regret it.
When I first got into it, I honestly thought that it was like an urban-legends-type of tv show, which I was super into. I've always loved the paranormal and these types of episodes got me hooked. But it becomes SO MUCH MORE than that!
The story line is so well-written that while rewatching it, I found clues in season 1 that lead to season 5. It's not like other shows, where each season is a new plot.... it's more like each season fluidly leads to the next. It builds so well on itself that it almost feels real.
But, about season6+ : not worth watching tbh. I watched up to season 9, and gave up. I would stop at end of season 5, since that's where the writer meant to end it. After s5, it feels like each season is a new/different plot from the previous one, because the network was getting more money than expected and chose to extend it. But choosing to extend the show past its perfect ending comes at the expense of the good story and ruins it.

The chemistry between the characters is great, and the supernatural/magic elements are woven into the story perfectly to balance the romance. Arguably, it is more supernatural than romance, but let's be honest, the romance is pretty much the main reason to watch the show.
The actors are so full of expression and the characters are very well thought out. Damon (Ian) is probably the best one since he can switch between emotions so fast, making the story unpredictable and fun.
I took off 1 star because at a certain point (after season 3 or 4) the story got too complex that it started getting ridiculous. But until then, it's a 10.
