Review of Osmosis

Osmosis (2019)
4/10
Pretentious & soul draining
7 August 2020
The problem isn't the far-fetched plot and seemingly ridiculous scenarios. There are plenty of shows, both domestic & international, that have far-fetched sci-fi plots and many are indeed very good. The problem lied in its execution - the excruciatingly slow pace, the wooden deliveries of the two main actors, and the total lack of focus. And the slow-mo "sex" scenes where the characters would float in a dark, amniotic space to symbolize some pretentious communion of their souls...barf. I really wanted to like this b/c it's so unusual for the French to invest in the sci-fi genre but this was excruciating to watch. I even forced myself to finish the entire thing, hoping that maybe the last episode would magically redeem the entire series but alas, no. quel dommage!
