 What is going on guys welcome back to the channel critical overlord here So this would be the spoiler-free review for pre lowliers original sentence season 1 episode 6 through 10 I honestly will say that the second half of this show did get pretty intense very chaotic And it was just wild very wild very satisfying very gory at times and Just a lot of anxiety inducing sequences as well So I mean I will say that the pacing still remains like the biggest issue for me as far as it retains to this show Because it's literally jumping seeing the scene and it does it so much it makes certain scenes Seen pointless or underwhelming and a lot of times I found myself going like okay. Well. Why was this here? I really want this show if it gets its second season to focus on letting things breathe letting certain Important plot developments get their own time to shine because they are determined to give you answers But everything is hitting you so fast at certain moments in the later half of this season that is like okay Slow down or it's something that's very important that was being a slow built-up Then it's just over within seconds because of the pacing so The rapid pacing does keep the show engaging of course Bailey Madison continues to deliver one of the best performances I've ever seen from her here is the imaging her energy just honestly makes imaging more likable and Bailey has always been good when it comes to facial Expressions the way she's delivering her lines with so much passion for me It's a little bit of just being impressed with how far she's come how talented. She's always been while also Mixing all that into giving you a character That's just someone you always will want to root for here in imaging the Angela waters drama gets more twisted A is indeed revealed Images baby daddy is revealed more nods happen to Rosewood you get more nods to Rosewood in the OG series more nods to the horror genre and Tabby and Imogen share a horrific secret together I'm not going to outright spoil anything But the second half just puts a lot of attention on the torture the torture porn side of horror you can take of that what you will so This first season has effectively just provided ingredients to be stronger than the OG due to the handling of the mystery I'm not saying it's a better show than the original I'm not saying that it just has the ingredients that I think could take it further to end up being better than the original My only gripe again comes down to the pacing making it seem like there wasn't enough time for them to let every big reveal Shine of the zone when there clearly was if you just structure a little structure the series a little bit better The show just has to work on that going for that's really all I have to say as far as like a negative a big negative All the actresses here are very impressive in their roles Chandler Maya Zaria Malia and Bailey all have great chemistry that I felt with this group like how I felt it with the original girls I was completely sold in their friendship And I just look forward to seeing more of this if it actually happens now Maybe I'm looking maybe I'm not looking hard enough But no one has guessed the reveal that's coming so that might make some of you exciting if you're listening to this The cinematography remains very gorgeous for the most part lots of cool sequences in the carnival episode specifically and a Wonderful shot of the mass figure watching the carnival from above I know there's like images of that already circling around on in on the internet and on Twitter So again the show does not to an old tiresome formula I will say from the original show the girls think someone is a and then they gas like themselves into it when they Know it's not true Original sin takes that though it improves on it Which I liked because the girls don't collectively gas like themselves for a long period of time over a suspect that ultimately isn't correct So I will say I found the a reveal going to be very satisfying I'm not saying everybody will be overly impressed with it But given how the other two after Mona were so horrifically bad This one takes the second best role the entire setup to it the built up to it and the whole sequence that Unfolds during the reveal how it's a lot more cohesive than a lot of the past two a reveals We've gotten there are some things that are like yes logic gaps and things that are go unanswered some loose plot threads But it's the second best behind Mona And again like I said are there logic gaps are there unanswered questions is are there signs of bad writing in general? Yes, but not on the level at what you were served in the original show in those later seasons I promise the mystery being front and center is how the show should be an original sin doesn't disappoint in that department at all What so ever it just is very it's very rapidly paced at times when I think it needs to slow it out There's an interesting plot development in the last few minutes of original sin that I'm sure some fans will enjoy And I'm curious if this will lead to two cameos in season two again if that happens As far as like the a reveal during this I honestly was getting vibes from scream to Welcome to the dollhouse episode from season five of the original show a little bit of saw and Buffy season one For though my Buffy fans out there. I mean perhaps there's a little bit too many nods going on But this show has me hooked. I know it has a lot of you hooked I'm not saying it's the best the best slasher show to ever grace a small screen or anything like that It's just an impressive take on this IP and I desperately want season two I'm liking what they've been giving us so far the show is nailing it with the soundtrack But I'd still give the advantage to the OG but the show just again does incorporate a lot of cool sequences with Some cool bops behind them as well to get the energy going add some momentum to them Minus again some grabs ahead with pacing and dialogue this show is a hit with me. Honestly. I want more of it I want HBO Max to continue this show The reveal that comes again does have many loose ends most likely done on purpose though to lead into season two Imaging does have a brutal chase sequence that is again very anxiety inducing due to the circumstances that have been during this pursuit And Bailey again, she's just hitting it from all cylinders selling it so well The show does a better job at handling the underage Relationships or interest from older men in underage girls one particular Revelation does have clues you can pick up on as you rewatch the show and I appreciate the series going in a route Many might deem predictable Versus shock factor that makes no sense because I know a lot of you felt like the old G show had an obsession with trying to outsmart It's fans versus doing what made sense Placing the moms at the center of this mysteries with their daughters forces the parents to be more involved And that's a big improvement for me over the original They learn about a eventually as a result of this because we know what this has to do with them And what they did with Angela waters Whereas in the original show the parents are involved to a certain extent But a lot were gone in them. We're gone a lot of the time So coming out of the first season Imaging and tabby to me definitely have the most compelling arcs all the liars again are dealing with their own struggles It bonds them over time. It gives you a chance as a viewer to grow attached to them Maybe you find even something about yourself within some of the things that they're dealing with on a personal level and all in all This was a very satisfying first season the finale is honestly one of the most Exciting things I've seen from this universe in quite a while Maybe I'm a being a little bit too dramatic But the ending of that original show was just so horrifically bad and the how bad it got was so terrible That this is just an improvement on many on many sides and many fronts I want everybody involved in this show to be proud of what they've done If you haven't already of course make sure you subscribe turn on post notification number is video in the description I have links on social media accounts on Facebook Twitter and Instagram You can message me there, of course There isn't movies news or reviews you let me to cover in the future and I will say that the a reveal Yes, they all find out It's not just us us and the girls find out and it's a it's a good sequence all together all that in mind Guys, I will see you in the next video
