DVD Reviews of Mad Men - Season One [Blu-ray]DVD Review: une s?rie tr?s stylis?e! Summary: 5 StarsJe suis trop jeune pour pouvoir comparer ce qu'? pu ?tre les ann?es 60 mais une chose est certaine il s'agit d'une tr?s bonne s?rie. Le rythme est lent, les couleurs sont superbes, la musique est tr?s bonne et attach? de tr?s pr?s ? l'image. Les th?mes approch?s sont tr?s int?ressants, on passe de la politique, des femmes au foyers, des diff?rences raciales, de pouvoir, d'ambition, d'homosexualit?, etc. avec un peu de myst?re ici et l?...
J'?coute beaucoup de s?rie et je pense que celle-ci comporte plusieurs tr?s bons acteurs, tout est tr?s bien jou? et convaincant, pour cette raison je peux comparer effectivement avec la s?rie "Six Feet Under" comme un autre l'a d?j? dit ici.
DVD Review: Smoke Gets In Your Eyes, Mad Men Season One Summary: 5 StarsThis is a series that strives to disect a few very specific aspects of the human condition. We are all looking for happiness, and happiness is knowing that everything is going to be okay, knowing that 'we' are going to be okay. These lines spoken by main character Don Draper perfectly sum up the series, and what I feel it strives to be perfectly. This is a show for those who enjoy subtle character study and reading in between the lines. The greatest parts of this show are not what can be seen but what lies beneath the surface. I feel it accurately portrays the desperate internal struggles of lost character's who just want to find out where they fit in and how they can truly feel happy. In the end this is a series about finding happiness and the fact that the character's trying to obtain it are so flawed is what keeps them from finding it.
This series is full of so many little things, alot of people have criticized how slow the show is to them, but it is in these slow moments that the true series can be found for those who choose to see it that way. It's fine to enjoy this simply for the base stories or the character's or the setting but the reason it has won so many awards and garnered so much acclaim is because of the use of subtle character exploration. The difference between this show and other excellent shows like Breaking Bad is that while other shows tend to be about situations and the character's explored just happen to be the ones in them, Mad Men is more about the character's and the situations they are in just happen to be what they are experiencing.
The sixties era the show takes place during draws in a lot of viewer's for pure nostalgia or curiousity alone, but while I feel it is portrayed well and beautifully I don't feel it is fair to expect it to be completely accurate or to say that the show is actually about that time. The time is just a interesting setting for this study of character to occur in. It isn't striving to portray a whole vision of the time, rather it takes the aspects that lend strongest to the overall story being told. The setting is poetically perfect for being a seeming visual picture of perfection that is so ironic to the dark and depressing character's we find within it. At the same time the era full of change, exploration and lifestyle upheaval near exactly reflects the internal issues the character's themselves are dealing with.
Don't let the smoke get in your eyes and cloud what this show is really about, keep trying to find the happiness hidden within it that the character's themselves are searching for. Thanks for your time.
DVD Review: Too much fun! Summary: 5 StarsThis is a hilarious look back on the '50s. I think Boomers, Gen Y and Gen X will all get a kick out of it.
DVD Review: What?! Summary: 1 StarsWhat is this all about?
The glowing reviews?
Bought the blu-rays because they were cheaper and the Amazon reveiws made me think this program would be at least entertaining.
So far I have almost gotten a lung disease from all the smoking and almost lost consciousness from the boredom!
The 60's were an interesting time to be alive: those of us who suvived them know this...but it was NEVER gammed with the nicotine freaks that this shows slams in your face.
DVD Review: Mad about Mad Men Summary: 5 StarsI bought this as a Christmas gift for my son. Mad Men is fantastic. It is the best show since the Sopranos.
