 The next time you're being an idiot, I'm just gonna grab you by the balls until you die. First you react to the idiot's eye, I'm Corbin Miles. This is Rick Segel. Yeah. Oh, I'm dead. Wait, am I? Uh, please follow us on Instagram! On Twitter! Today, and the next coming days, first time we've done this, we will be reviewing Sakura Gums! Yeah, Sakura Gums! Uh, it's the Netflix series. Where does that come from? I don't know. Um, and it's... Wait, Netflix has a series? It's a series that's been highly, highly requested that you guys want us to react to. So what we're gonna do is we're gonna react to each episode right before we watch it. Are we giving spoilers right at right? Yes, yes. Okay, so if you've never seen the show and you want to see it go away... Leave now. Leave now. And then come on back. But yeah, we're gonna be reviewing episode by episode. This is not gonna be... We're not gonna have a review every single day. Correct. Because we're not gonna binge watch it and review each episode like that. We're gonna watch it, and then we're gonna come together. Probably like once a week. Yeah, yeah. There's a lot of stuff to do, you know? Uh, probably a little more than once a week. I'll let you know. So this is the first episode we just watched. And it's about this cop played by Saif Ali Khan. Yeah, not bad. Uh, thank you. Yeah. But that last name, Khan, is so common. Yeah, it's so common. I just, so ridiculous. It's like, it's gotta be like Smith here. Smith in the United States is a pretty common. Smith, Williams, Siegel. Yeah. But you, you open up and it's, it's... Ah, God. You pissed me off. I, I couldn't wait. I saw the opening thing and I thought, yeah! I was like, you better f***ing know. Yeah. I knew he'd be best. The dog is falling from the sky and I thought... And I'm... Corbin, my crap. I'm betting that, that will come into play eventually. I'm not looking forward to it. But, uh, whoever threw that dog, you're a monster. So you open in with Saif Ali Khan, uh, and you kind of get this idea that he's this good cop. Right, for sure. Uh, and, and he's fighting corruption within his... Right. Um, obviously the guy just shot him in the back when the guy was trying to surrender. Yeah. So there's obviously something going on there that we'll probably find out. Right. Um, and then it gets way more interesting. Cause you don't, you think it's like, oh, this is just going to be a cop drama kind of thing. Right. And then it kind of takes a big turn. Yeah. And this guy starts calling him and you're like, uh, okay, this is weird. Right. What's, what's going on with this? Right. That weird connection point of him calling with us going back in time to learn about this antagonist's background. Which is, well, I thought it was great. I did like that. I thought it was real fun. I liked that a lot. His mother who was, uh, I believe a prostitute. Oh yeah. That sequence where he's looking in and the dad's got the stone. Yeah. And then the guy gets dragged away and, uh, but, uh, I thought that was a really interesting way to do it. Yeah. So to learn the guy who plays the would be bad guy that you think we assume is the bad guy. Um, say the name because I can't, I'm guessing his name is no was it in Siddiqi. So he's probably correct. Um, but I'm not going to try to pronounce that. He was my favorite part. I thought he did amazing. He did. He did do him. He was for me the strongest of the people. Yes. I agree. Um, he, whenever he was on screen or taught in, it was really interesting because they did most of it through phone calls. Right. And until the very end, obviously they didn't get into the same room and then obviously he didn't say anything. Right. He shot himself. Right. Um, but I did not see coming. Yeah. Um, but it was very interesting because obviously it's, it's more difficult as an actor when you just, the people, when the people aren't there to play off of. Right. Obviously we're both actors. So this is kind of our favorite parts of watching things is to watch people's performances. Yes. Um, and it's very difficult to do phone stuff. If it's not being shot with the other actor, because sometimes they'll shoot phone sequences where you actually do have the two actors on the phone together, uh, or at least you have the other actor there with you talking most of the time. You're having to imagine the lines and imagine the reactions, but obviously a lot of times it might not be the most captivating scenes because you're just on the phone. Oh yeah. Unless Tom Hardy is moving. Exactly. Which is what I was thinking of it. Yeah. It would be real good too. But this did it though. Towards the, once it started doing the whole, he got the phone call and then he was like, I gotta go kill this guy right now. Right, right, right. Kind of right off the bat. Uh, my least favorite thing about the whole thing, and it's not the series fault, I think it's Netflix's fault, is the way we have it is dubbed over with English. I, yeah. I wanted to talk about that. I despised it. It really was hard for me to adjust and I was trying really hard not to blame the series for it because it's not their fault. Yeah. And what we're talking about here is when we watched it, we had a simultaneous thing of the English subtitles that we're used to. But then it was overdubbed. Everything that we watch. Was in English. Is, up till now, if it's in Hindi, we're hearing them in Hindi the way it was filmed on set that day and then we have English subtitles. This had overdubbing on top of the subtitles and often the English overdubbing. Yeah. It didn't match the subtitle on the bottom. Yeah. And especially when they were cussing. Yeah. It was real bad. It's like you don't have no dick or balls. Right. Basically it's how they delivered the line and I'm like that is not how that actor delivered that line. Right. Yes. And so it took you out of it a little bit. Like I said, it's not the series fault because it takes me out of it sometimes. It was really hard. I had to force myself and not blame the show. Yeah. Same. Yeah. But like I said, from what I was watching outside of when their mouths, the mouth thing dubbing part. Yeah. It was really good. I really enjoyed everybody's performance and everything looked really real. It's one of my favorite parts. Besides when they were doing the background on the bad guy and his whole come up into the drug world, they were talking about the head of this one and he was introduced by just grabbing people's balls and squeezing them until their brains also noted. I was like squirming. That's always uncomfortable to see a moment like that. I don't know. It's hilarious though. And I was like, no, that's unique. I've never seen that. Maybe like a Scorsese film or a Tarantino. And the guy was believable because the dude's a body builder. So the thought that that guy could grab you with his hands and crush that look believable to me. So I really enjoyed the uniqueness of it and then throwing some humor in it. But I thought the way it was shot was beautiful. No surprise. The cinematography. Now I have a few little nitpicky bones to pick and it has nothing to do with the piano. Oh good. And I'm not really, I'm not ticked about anything at all. I just have, I have a couple of, and my suspicion like most shows, most shows evolve into themselves. The characters, like if you watch any show that's been on for several seasons and you go back to season one, you look at the characters, you look at everything and you realize they didn't know themselves yet. Nobody really, so I say all of this with that grace extended to people. I felt like visually it's trying to find itself as far as the art production's concerned. Even, even lighting elements. I felt like there were moments even in a particular scene, they would do one angle with a particular lighting and then they go to another shot and it wasn't symmetrical. But that's really nitpicky. You know what I mean? Compared to a show that's got it down and they know the team and everybody's got an eye and it's just seamless. Same thing with some makeup things. For example, they aged Nawaz and Tzadiki. And there was a shot from the side, the way it was hit that the puffy bags that makeup put under his eyes looked like makeup bags versus real bags. And that's just, I'm being crazy nitpicky. And I also felt, and this is, it could have been because it was at the beginning of the episode, I felt that Saif Ali Khan, when he was having the moment alone in his apartment and then he shouts and he yells, there were a couple of moments I felt he was indicating rather than feeling what he was feeling. He went up to grab tears that weren't there. And again, I feel like that's almost unfair to say to the guy because he's just getting into the character. You know, you can't expect them to be bringing season six of Game of Thrones with their acting. Also I think some of it might have been dubbing. Exactly. That scene I really would have liked if they would have, I don't know why they dubbed over screaming. I know. They dubbed over his screaming and yelling on that part. And I was like, this could have been a really cool moment for this guy. He's just, he's out of it and all that kind of stuff. My favorite thing is the whole weirdness of this who we think is the antagonist. Yeah. And his religious thing. Yeah. And being this eternal. He thinks he's God. Well, and what the heck happens at the end, right? Yeah, that's one of the things I wanted to talk about then. Like what he thinks he can't die. Right. So one, what's going to happen? Right. Obviously is one, maybe that wasn't him? Right. That could be a thing. You think it could be like the many faced somebody? Yeah. Something like that or like he just paid this person and he's like he's being the public master. Right. Right. Of all this. Or it could be like he did this stuff and it's like what's that movie where they kill the guy but he still has so much stuff set up and he has like tapes of recordings. Oh yes. Well, and I'm also thinking obviously of Sherlock. Yeah. Yeah. Moriarty. Moriarty could be here. He may not be here. Which would be a great, super cool. It's a model for a villain. Oh yeah. I think he's one of the best villains. The best villain. If you guys have never seen Sherlock, please watch it. The one with the Ben and the Cumberbatch. Yeah, Ben and the Cumberbatch. It's phenomenal. Fantastic. But yeah, so I'm interested. I wanted to watch the second episode right away. Yeah. But obviously we want to have these reviews to be fresh. Right. We could easily binge watch the whole thing. Yeah. But we want each episode to be a standalone. Yeah. Because we don't want to watch it and then forget what happened in the first. But man, if you could direct us to, that's the biggest thing that was so frustrating because I feel like it's way, it would have been so much better and I would have been fully drawn, I would have been drawn in, the moment I saw that dog falling and the first line about God. Yeah. I thought, I'm in. Yeah. But I kept getting pushed out by the overdubbing. Because it looks like bad acting. Exactly. But it's, you know it's not. Which is why. Bad dubbing. Right. I don't understand why they put the dubbing. Exactly. I don't get that. Unless, I don't know. I don't know. Which is why I'm really hesitant to even kind of critique Saif Ali Khan in that opening sequence because so much of it was overdubbed. Yeah. But I'm excited for the next episode. I am too. Please don't give us any spoilers in the comments. Please. Yeah. Because that's happened on some of the reactions. We've reacted to a trailer that's six years old. You all have seen the movies eight times. And we'll say something like, I wonder if this is a true story. And then in the comments. Yeah, it's a true story. The mother killed the daughter and then at the end everybody was over there in the Panama. So please enjoy this ride with us. Yeah. Seeing the show through fresh eyes. But yeah, we were both very excited about this. I don't know what my theory is right now. I'm hoping either it wasn't him and then he shows up and then but obviously I don't think he's leaving the show. No. And what happened at the end because they pan back to him and he's sitting there with his eyes open because he died with his eyes open or his eyes open because he's not dead. I mean, he shot himself his brain splattered on the wall. But he said he doesn't die. I know it's exciting. Is he an alien? Is P.K. going to show up? Is he an alien? Wow. That's what this is, isn't it? It's P.K. Student reactions. P.K. has returned to Earth for a third time and now he's getting really macabre. Stay tuned for episode two review.
