Review of Buffering

Buffering (2021–2023)
1/10
Mind-numbing awfulness
8 August 2021
This is most likely the worst thing I've ever seen in my life.

A group of self obsessed zoomers endlessly talk talk talking at each other, infinitely impressed with how clever they all think they are.

But no one's clever. They're self infatuated Peter Pan types, speaking the things they write on Twitter to get likes from other Peter Pan types. If talking in Twitter posts doesn't sound real, that's because it's not.

Snark followed by sarcasm followed by more snark. None of it's endearing, all of it is off-putting.

No one likes these kinds of people but themselves. No one outside of their bubble finds people like this bearable.

Oh, and the gimmicky "long take/one shot" style of filming a scene is far too on the nose. The camera, constantly moving to get the next bit of staging in frame, make sure everyone's blocked perfectly now HIT YOUR MARK AND SAY YOUR SNARKY LINE!

Yawn.
