Very low-key for a Tarantino movie. really more of a character study than anything else. Despite the neon, the nostalgia, costumes- overall excellent attention to detail, it's a tad self indulgent in a "memory lane" kind of way. I will say Leo and Brad give maybe their best performances ever. Robbie is pretty but has nothing to do. Only one good scene where she's in a theater, dirty feet on the seat in front of her, watching one of her own Performances with such excitement and delight. Margaret Qualley gives a much better performance as a hippie/Manson girl. You can see the end coming from a mile away. A 6.5 movie.
Love King. Love the actors. They must all be starving to take this on. If I ever see JJ Abrams name again, I'll run away. Fool me twice... there are no spoilers because like Abrams other stuff nothing ever culminates in ...anything.
I don't typically write reviews anymore because, who cares, really. It's just that I've seen some really lame-ass reviews for this show, so I had to chime in. In a world were people are going ballistic that Tim Allen's last opus to moronic men was canceled, shows like GLOW give me hope.
The writing is sharp - funny and moving. The characters are all well drawn with each having clear and distinct personalities. The music, costumes, sets are all authentic-feeling and look just great. And the actors ... wow! These folks are all perfect in their roles. Brie and Maron are almost too awesome. I see awards attention for them - or at least hope I do. Gilpin and the other beautiful, fabulous ladies are all perfect. Each episode you find yourself loving somebody new. Even Bash and Florian.
This show is funny, it's heart-felt, it's energetic, it's wicked fun! Netflix should be proud, they're doing some really good things and this is definitely one of them.
