Please don't hurt this movies ratings by leaving a bad review when you aren't truly a martial arts fan. I am a woman in my mid 40's , so my dad had me watch this when it came out in the 90's. This movie is incredible. I also took tae kwon do as a child and participated in a team fight and this is a very realistic depiction of how these go down ( obviously in a professional setting ). The actors are all great This is a story of triumph , competition, honor , and redemption. It's beautifully done and i don't want to give the ending away , but the ending was the best part. This movie does a great job in allowing you to empathize and sympathize and really connect to each character and their backstories. Do not even try to Watch this movie if you Weren't a fan of 80's martial Arts classics of the 80's 90's like blood sport and kick boxer ! One of my all time Favs for sure.

This show is great. So many people slamming this show after one episode ( or not even finishing the first episode). I was going to wait until it was over to review but sheesh, since everyone was going in, here goes... Lily rose is amazing and believable in her role. You can feel her emotion. The show is DARK. People are criticizing The Weeknd's character saying it's uncomfortable or too sexual, well i highly doubt those people have actually heard House of Balloons or Trilogy. And side note, the soundtrack to this show is also fire... thank you Abel.

Back to Jos ( Lili ), after episode 3 we learn more about how her mother treated her and you begin to feel more some of what she's been through and what she's in the stuck slump she's in. Tedros ( The Weeknd) used her past trauma to help jump start her career again. It's definitely controversial and dark, but also real life. This is a true toxic relationship and again, this is real life. I'm sad there are only 3 more left because there is so much to unravel here with Jos and her "relationship ". The Weeknd's character is not likeable at all, and the fact that so many of y'all don't like him just means he's playing the character right. Watch the entire series, people. Then judge. For me so far , i think it's a great show, In this genre.

I don't think it's quite fair for me to rate this yet since I'm on episode 6.... BUT i had to complain about Rubens mother. Her character kills it for me every time she enters the scene... she looks straight out of a telenovela from the 80's. Each scene she enters the show feels like we went back to the 80's. Aside from her , and I'm a fan of every character from Elite, ( Alvaro is in this playing another not so great guy), the cast are great and it's a good binge. Also, it's making me want to visit Spain. Beautiful location.
