All's Fair 2025 Tv Series Review Trailer

This review contains plot details from the first three episodes of “All’s Fair,” which are now available on Hulu. Creators: Jon Robin Baitz, Joe Baken, Ryan Murphy Stars: Kim Kardashian, Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash The fact that a legal drama supposedly about female empowerment begins with a pilot episode written and directed by men probably tells you everything you need to know about “All’s Fair.” In fact, of the three episodes currently available on Hulu to commemorate the series premiere, only one features a significant creative credit from a woman, and it’s shared between executive producer Jamie Pachino and co-creator Ryan Murphy, who collaborated on the script for Episode 2.  But this is a review, so I’m obligated to elaborate: “All’s Fair” is a clumsy, condescending take on superficial, triumphalist feminism, undercooked even by the standards of the overworked Murphy, who co-created the series with Joe Baken and Jon Robin Baitz. Admittedly, the tone is intentionally campy, and i...

 After just one episode, I'm totally into it. It's the perfect combination of great acting, a good story, and a fun script. I had doubts about this when I saw the trailer, but my doubts disappeared almost from the beginning of episode one. The movie was larger than life, so it was definitely worth trying a series on the making of the movie.


I may go back and change this initial euphoria, but for now, this is one of the best things I've seen in a long time. Now then! It's a series about the making of the most epic gangster movie and one of the best movies ever made, and it has gangsters in it. What more could anyone want?

The scenes with Coppola and Mario Puzo are great. They both make the writing process seem exciting, positively exciting like I've never seen before.

Creators: Leslie Greif, Michael Tolkin
Stars: Miles Teller, Matthew Goode, Dan Fogler

A complaint, and it is important. There are TOO MANY scenes shot in almost complete darkness. I'm so sick of this technique and for the life of me I don't understand why directors think shooting in the dark is so cool. Almost every scene is shot by candlelight, a dim room with light shining through a curtained window, a club or office as dark as a cave with visibility of about three meters. If there is daylight, it is only to show characters walking into poorly lit rooms or shadows playing a prominent role. Puzo and his wife sit in a dark kitchen. Couldn't pay the electricity bill? Turn on a light!


If it was available, I would have watched the entire series in one night. This could be the best thing on television. I almost want to tell viewers to wait until everything is available before starting the series so you don't have the anguish of waiting for the next installment of what might be the best TV series of all time, no kidding.


If you had told me earlier that Giovani Ribisi plays Joe Colombo, I would have laughed, or at least been a little skeptical. It's a stroke of sheer brilliance in a series packed with talent and great performances. I had a hard time recognizing a lot of the actors because they were so far removed from anything they had done before.


Another complaint I have is that we have to wait until the end of June to see this through to completion. I want it now! This reminds me of a true story. Around 1989, a group of friends were sitting in my living room ready to go out for the night when The Godfather came on TV on some network station. We all promised that we would go out after seeing some scenes. I mean, we've already seen it a million times. More than an hour later, when Michael walks into the bathroom and comes out with the gun, there was a message on the screen: To be continued tomorrow.


We all said to hell with that, and someone went to the video store to rent a copy so we could finish watching it for 1,000,001 times. I don't remember what happened after that, but we probably went to a bar and talked about the movie for the millionth time.
