Jonathan M @RT81563670 2d I can’t remember who but they said it best: "Sharp Objects is hard to watch but even harder to look away from" or something along those lines. Masterpiece See more Marie W @MarieW528 Jun 10 It's a really good drama, it's shot well and it has a great cast with Amy Adams. See more Elena N. @RT38114737 Jun 5 This show felt like a fever dream. It was slow at times, but I guess it was worth it for the shock ending. Definitely great acting.

Only thing is that I felt cinematography was overdone at certain points + beginning could’ve moved faster See more LacosteTK T @LacosteTK Apr 29 This Is My Most Favourite Mini Series Of All Time, Directed By One Of The Best TV Directors Of Our Time Before He Could Give Us More Of Himself In Jean-Marc Vallée. The Characters Are Written Perfectly And Complex As Characters Can Be, The Use Of Music And Weather, And Unsettleness And The Atmosphere And Performances All Around. They Way He Shoots This Like A Voyeuristic Way Of Seeing People's Secrets And The Build-up To The Twist. Just For Once In Your Life Watch This Series And Also Watch Big Little Lies After!

I was hugely impressed by it, moved by it, occasionally engrossed, and the acting is superb. But I also found myself bored and frustrated at times. It is SO slow. Really, really slow. And it repeats the same flashbacks over and over - each time you think it will give a bit more and explain something but no, it doesn't. I don't know if the book is also this slow or if it was dragged out over too many episodes for television, but almost nothing happens until episode 7 out of 8. On the other hand, those first 6 episodes do a stunning job of building a picture of the characters, the community, and Camille's inner demons - and perhaps if it was done quicker some of that depth would be lost... And then the last 2 episodes are more pacey, powerful and surprising. So I'm kind of torn. But I think if this had been 3 or 4 episodes, I'd probably have given it 5 stars. See more Read all reviews
