Vincenzo

Hello hello! 

If you're a fan of comedy, action, and unexpected turns of events then you'll love to watch Vincenzo. This South Korean drama series has a well-written storyline that was executed with an amazing cast. I was invested in the show by the end of the first episode and it was hard to resist clicking the "next episode" button each time. These episodes aren't short and I watched them in several parts but that didn't stop me from enjoying the series. One episode is about 1 hour 30 minutes long so it's like you're watching a movie every time. Anyway, on to the summary.

Summary:

Vincenzo Cassano is a former Italian lawyer and consigliere for the Cassano mafia family. After the death of his adoptive father and head of the Cassano family, Don Fabio, Vincenzo leaves Italy and returns to Seoul. He is set on retrieving the secretly stashed 1.5 tons of gold (over $46.5 million U.S. dollars) he helped hide in the basement of a small business plaza. However, his plans are delayed when a real estate company under a powerful and corrupt company called Babel Group has illegally taken ownership of the building. Vincenzo goes head-to-head with Babel Group to reclaim the building and to recover his fortunes.


Review:

I just want to start off by saying that Vincenzo is one of the best Korean dramas I have ever seen. I usually don't like to watch k-dramas because they drag out pointless scenes but with Vincenzo, it didn't take long for the characters to get straight to the point. The acting from the cast was spectacular and is what led me to write about it.

The rivalry and secret scheming between Vincenzo and the antagonists of the show is the main plot. As you find out the dirty and clever ways each side resorts in doing to take down the other, their determination and attempt to provoke each other leaves the audience to find even the bad guys to be charming. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this show and you'll have a blast watching it too as you see different characters form alliances with either team Cassano Family or the evil Babel Group.

    Hi Hannah, I actually saw this show on my recommendation and thought I would watch it after watching my current show. But after reading the summary it seems very interesting. And I would say I've been watching love kdrama recently so it would be nice to watch some action later. Thank you for the information.

    Aloha Hannah,
    What an exciting and information blog site. You know, people do this for a living; you can actually get paid for something you do naturally well! I love how you're passioanate about every movie, and you always start with a hook. Your opinions are open, honest and non judgemental, and that's very cool! You've inspired me venture into movie hunting, especially Vincenzo. (lol) Mahalo for sharing, Rae Tang

The Haunting of Bly Manor

  Summary:  "The story tells of a young au pair hired by a man to look after his niece and nephew at the family country house after they fall into his care. Arriving at the Bly estate, she begins to see apparitions that proceed to haunt the premises."( Wikipedia ) Review:  The Haunting of Bly Manor is a TV show that contains genres of romance, drama, supernatural, and horror. As a horror fan, this show was not really frightening to watch unless you're afraid of jumpscares. Overall, as you watch, you get sucked into the love affairs that happen in the Bly Manor. The twists in the show are unexpected as you uncover the secrets within the manor! I won't lie when I say I watched this show after I discovered a lesbian couple was in it. The relationship portrayed between Dani and Jamie was so wholesome, and I was so sad about their ending. Another couple I was rooting for was Hannah and Owen. Although they were never in a relationship with each other, the interactions be...

Two Sentence Horror Stories

Image
   Summary:  Two Sentence Horror Stories is an anthology horror television series. Each episode is 20 minutes long and has a different plot every time. It currently has two seasons available and is an ongoing series. Review:   Don't let this show's name fool you. The word "horror" is in its name, but every episode I've seen feels more creepy than scary. Two Sentence Horror Stories is a series that doesn't require you to commit to watching every single episode. There is no specific storyline or recurring characters. If you've seen another Netflix show called "Black Mirror," this series gives off the same vibes. I recommend watching this if you're in the mood to be spooked but not terrified. Since every episode is different, you'll see various scenarios of characters encountering possible killers, the paranormal, or non-human figures. Some episodes left me confused as the ending was open-ended and left entirely up to how the audience imagin...
