Beautiful visuals but missing a plot...
This review will not contain any spoilers because even if I try there really is not much to spoil... for this combination travel and food show and Line Man commercial... The Shots are slooow and I can not complain the least bit about the visuals in this whatever it is, beautiful food, beautiful people and beautiful potential...
The acting or is it the lines I do not know... ranges between really bad to pretty okay from 1 side character that feels natural and fun and all round interesting (Bie) the rest just fall short in both skill (shown, they may be great actors just not here) and seem to just be there to show off food and the beauty of Nan (not the bread, the place).
The character are pretty flat and uninteresting, and I can't decide if the son daughter relationship is good or just odd... They actually start off with great potential during the first half of the show so I was hopeful but then just did not develop at all + made an out of character move that just felt all off... I did however enjoy the voice of reason in the show even if his lines where awkwardly delivered. But the poor guy was subjected to quite a bit of sexuall harasment from most of his colleagues yet not a single person seems to react to it why?
Then it also turned plane boring with under developed side stories that seemed to just be there to take up space but did not really lead anywhere, come to think of it so was the main story, underdeveloped and well I am not really sure if it did lead anywhere other then to Nan... ok this is back to making me hungry...
They also seem to use the words we will always be together more than the song from Grease, If it weren't for the beauty of the shots and the first half this would have gotten a lower score
