Message: [QUOTE="Kolumbo, post: 5075399, member: 4613"] [I][B]The Handmaid's Tale[/B][/I] 5 Seasons from 2017-2022, 56 Episodes Elisabeth Moss Has anyone watched this and what do you recommend? I watched the first episode last night and it seemed interesting enough, but slow. Then I read the below review on IMDB and I could see this being very frustrating. I'm not sure I want to invest any more time if it is so slow. Granted it's only one person's opinion but shows that move too slow drive me nuts. There are some good reviews too so I suppose it depends on your taste and how patient you are. User Review From IMDB "[B]The slowest show I've ever seen[/B] They have an interesting story but it happens in super-slow motion. They have about 2 seasons worth of storyline but they are trying to stretch it into 6-7 seasons by spending half of each episode zooming into people's eyes, showing people's empty faces and characters moving at slow motion. Each episode has about 4-5 minutes of story development and 40 minutes of zooming into people's faces and eyes. "This show was meant to be watched at 2x or 3x speed. If you are watching it at regular speed, you are actually watching it in slow motion. "Each episode: zoom into someone's face, zoom into someone's eyes, zoom on the ceiling, zoom on the walls, zoom back into someone's eyes, zoom into another character's face....20 minutes gone, another 20 left to go. Zoom some more until we fill 40 minutes. Then 5 minutes of actual story development." [/QUOTE]
