CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
mimikarasu If there'll be no second season then I would never waste my time again to watch it. I don't mind how Rory is in her 30's, welcome to the real world, but the ending was just a big disappointment for me.
sweetums-72836 I'm so glad that the Palladino's brought us back to Stars Hollow! I definitely missed them. I didn't care for the musical so much, I felt like it took away from the reunion we all so badly needed! I loved seeing everyone. You can't leave us hanging this way! WE NEED MORE!
Jerika I was so excited for this to come out! I started the first episode knowing it would be different so I kept an open mind. It was so incredibly boring I actually fast forwarded through spots in all four episodes. It took me about a month to dread through this thinking it would get better and have an amazing ending. Unfortunately the ending for lack of a better word sucked. It felt like everything Rory and Lorelai went through in the regular series just unraveled and became irrelevant. Why would you make Rory be so smart through the whole thing and on such a great track for success to not be successful at all I just don't understand. Also Luke and Lorelai aren't married yet. Really!? That's so ridiculous Rory going with Logan when he is with another women, how original. That's exactly what happened with Dean in a previous season, so I guess nothing changes, nothing is learned. Then the very last scene when Rory says she pregnant so infuriating. That's not who she is, it's like they completely changed the characters and went in such a bad direction. All in all very disappointing. Wish I had never watched it. It was supposed to tie up all loose ends not leave you on yet another cliff hanger.
Aasta Kyvik I only discovered Gilmore Girls recently, so it was all very fresh in my memory when I started on this mini-series. I liked it, but it didn't feel as authentic as the original series. Some of the monologues fell pretty flat as if they were talking to no one, which bothered me because I fell out and suddenly was very aware that it was acting. Luke's monologue in the end of episode is the only one that really pulled a punch, it was pure gold.I have red several reviews on this title and it seems like people's main concern is how Rory turned out. I think it was rather realistic actually. She's used to get what she wants and works hard for it, but the real world wasn't as she hoped and harder than she thought. It's therefore pretty realistic that she seems less mature because she feels let down and doesn't know how to get back on the saddle again. I also understand her affair with Logan because he takes her back to a time where her life was more like she wanted to. He reminds her of how she had opportunities and of her young success.The Paul thing on the other hand was so out of place and put in just for a laugh when it in reality was nothing but sad, and the Wookiee thing felt nothing but pointless.Lorelai felt out of place though. I understand she was grieving but even her more cheerful self didn't seem like the old Lorelai. It was also very disappointing how she didn't seem to mind that her daughter was cheating, the old Lorelai have shown what she felt. All in all I didn't seem to find the same mother and daughter feel, it felt almost staged some times.Emily was fantastic. Her character was the one that was most true to her self while also showing sign of growing. She has always been one of my favorite characters and she did not disappoint! It was very sad with with the death of Richard (also a favorite of mine), both the death of the actor and the character, but how Emily turned out made it turn from pointless to meaningful.The summer episode was my least favorite. The pool scene with body shaming was so tacky and disappointing, and the musical felt unnecessary. The musical scene could've been so much better with an appearance of Kirk as a stagehand or something similar. An appearance of Kirk in general in this episode would've made a huge different, but he was nowhere to be seen and missed.I liked the open ending though, the pregnancy will force Rory to pull herself back together, and hopefully will her and Jesse's paths cross again. All in all, I would've watched it again.
