I just finished this film and I have to say I'm surprised reading some of the bad reviews about it, I know film perception is subjective but I don't understand how someone could dislike this film. It was so interesting to me, and the thing is, nothing big really happens, you just follow these two cousins along their trip, it's normal, it's almost casual. There are not going to explain everything to you because there's no need for it. We have access to the superficial, to the bare minimum because that how the characters relate to each other, there so much they don't understand and so much that they don't say. The performances are all incredibly, especially Culkin. I was left crying by the end. Maybe you need to have dealt with depression to connect with it more. Maybe you need to have seen someone you love survive (or not) this painful illness. But I'm happy for this type of movies to exist. This stories also need to be told. As rare and unfitted for some people may seem.

I was enjoying this show, but for me it wasn't perfect though, I couldn't quite put my finger on what was missing, so after a couple of episodes I figure out that the thing it bother me a little bit was the lack of focused on cinematography, there were a couple of nice shots on previous episodes but there were short and not really developed and then episode seven comes along. This episode looks fantastic, from the lighting, the background and set pieces, the game that they have to play everything looks so magical and so real at the same time. The tarot table was just perfect. I was so excited to see that not only there were great performances and production (because every episode has that) but the love that they put into making it look like a visual spectacle as well, I'm tankful for that. The director of this episode really did an amazing job. The story is also, in my humble opinion, the best one of all the witches. I wish I could see more from her, a whole show actually. I enjoyed this episode so much that is hard for me to believe the ending could be better than this, but hopefully it would be.
