La mujer de la casa de enfrente de la chica en la ventana

Even though I quickly realized that I cannot take any storyline seriously and that the detective subgenre is simultaneously honored and spoofed, it wasn't enough. Neither the incredible transformation of Kristen Bell into a burnt-out suburban lady or pondering over the number of baking pans she used could help me. It is precisely because of those inconspicuous kicks back to the clichés of similar works that are so outrageously exaggerated that I didn't care about the rest of the plot – and on the contrary, there were too few of them that actually worked for me to genuinely laugh at them. What's more, according to interviews, the creators immensely enjoyed writing and filming the finale, which actually seemed to me to cross a line in rather a peculiar and definitively unfunny way. Nevertheless, this The Woman Who Poured Too Much Wine Then Spilled It All Over Her Apartment is a commendable achievement, even though it's aiming at too many targets at once. (25.02.2022)
