Fatally Flawed and Fatally Bad
1 May 2023
There is absolutely NOTHING worth watching in this laboriously dreadful series. I finished the first 3 episodes just out of curiosity, and we all know what not only killed the cat, but me along with it and what I found will not bring me back for the rest of the series. The original Fatal Attraction film was a product of its era, so I understand why this series had to reimagine some of the material. However, when material is changed much too much, and it relies on the chemistry between the two lead actors with little to no chemistry, it simply languishes in nothingness without anywhere to go but down. The smaller storylines are rushed, the pacing is way off, and the ancipation of what comes next between Alex and Dan is not there as it was in the original film. You just don't care because whatever comes next is probably just as boring or worse than what happened before. This Fatal Attraction series took all of the erotic thrills out of it being a must watch erotic thriller. The problem I have with remakes is that they're rarely as good as the original and that streak continues. Sometimes a classic film should just be left alone. Allow us to enjoy the greatness of the original, without our minds being polluted by the horrors of the remake.
