Fellow cinephiles, it鈥檚 a new week to keep sharing reviews! I鈥檝e just finished a new series鈥攈onestly, it鈥檚 not the type of story I鈥檓 usually drawn to, but it piqued my curiosity. Although it was a bit of a struggle to get through, I finally finished the last few episodes yesterday. I鈥檓 talking about the well-known story of Carrie White.

Synopsis:
Carrie White is an ostracized high school student who has spent her entire life confined within the four walls of her home with her mother, Margaret. Following the sudden and premature death of her father, she is forced to venture out and navigate the unforgiving ecosystem of a public high school. There, she must confront a bullying scandal that ripples through the entire community, the relentless pressure and callous cruelty of the social media age, and the emergence of mysterious telekinetic powers that surface alongside her adolescence.

Comments and Opinion.
The story hooks you from the very first chapter鈥攖here鈥檚 no doubt about that. It follows a disoriented, shy young woman who has never left home and is unfamiliar with many things鈥攊ncluding technology, but above all, the cruelty this society is capable of. She tries to fit in, but as I mentioned, the harsh reality of adolescent malice鈥攂ullies and immature kids who think they鈥檙e all that鈥攎akes it far from easy; they strip away one鈥檚 innocence and peace. That is my takeaway from this story, and it helps explain how things reached that final, tragic outcome.
As for the series itself, it wasn鈥檛 bad, though it did feel overly drawn out. They added extra episodes to build up excitement and tension leading to the finale, but I must confess that the ending was a bit disappointing鈥攖hat part felt too rushed. I was left wanting more; given that this is supposed to be a horror story, that was precisely what it lacked most.
I really liked the portrayal of Carrie鈥檚 mother鈥攊t was a very well-acted role. She was an overprotective mother who offered wise words intended to raise awareness; had the other parents listened to her, that horror and tragedy never would have occurred. Instead, they chose to reward their children by allowing them to hold their graduation party, rather than punishing them as they deserved.
While it鈥檚 true that one person set everything in motion, in the end, everyone was complicit. They all got swept up in the mockery and the viral nature of social media鈥攂ut I won鈥檛 go into further detail, in case there are those who aren鈥檛 familiar with the story.
Comentarios y Opini贸n.
La historia te atrapa en el primer cap铆tulo, de eso no hay duda, una joven desorientada, t铆mida, que nunca ha salido de su hogar y desconoce de muchas cosas, de las tecnolog铆as, pero sobretodo de lo cruel que puede llegar a ser est谩 sociedad, trata de encajar pero c贸mo dije, la cruda realidad de la maldad de adolescente, abusadores y ni帽os inmaduros, que se creen la 煤ltima cosa, no es f谩cil, te roban tu inocencia y paz. Esto es lo que concluy贸 y saco de esta historia, para poder entender c贸mo lleg贸 a ese tr谩fico final.
Sin embargo, volviendo a la serie c贸mo tal, no estuvo mal, pero si sent铆 que lo alargaron mucho, cap铆tulos extras para darle un poco m谩s de emoci贸n y tensi贸n a la trama, esperando ese 煤ltimo episodio, pero confieso que all铆 me decepcion贸 un poco, ya que recortaron mucho esa parte, qued茅 c贸mo picada, se supone que esto se basa en una historia de terror, y fue lo que m谩s le falt贸.
Me gust贸 el papel de la madre de Carrie, muy bien interpretado, una madre sobreprotectora, usando sab铆as palabras para crear conciencia, si los padres la hubieran escuchado, ese terror y esa tragedia nunca hubiera sucedido, prefirieron premiar a sus hijos, permitiendo que realizar谩n su fiesta de graduaci贸n en vez de castigarlos como merec铆an.
Entiendo que todo lo inicio una persona, pero bien es cierto que a la final todos fueron c贸mplices, todos se dejaron llevar por la burla, lo viral de las redes, en fin, no quiero dar m谩s detalles, para quienes desconocen de est谩 historia.
Conclusions:
Without a doubt, Carrie is a story worth analyzing, but this series fell short in terms of the horror elements we all expected to see. Even so, it鈥檚 still worth a watch鈥攊t consists of 8 entertaining episodes鈥攁nd, from what I gather, this isn鈥檛 the end; there will be another season, so let鈥檚 see how things unfold.
If you haven鈥檛 seen it yet, I encourage you to give it a try and let me know what you think. Until next time!
Conclusiones:
Sin duda Carrie es una historia para analizar, pero est谩 serie se qued贸 corta con respecto a la parte del terror que todos nos imaginamos que 铆bamos a ver, a煤n as铆 se deja ver, son 8 capitulos entretenidos, y por lo que entend铆, esto no termina aqu铆, habr谩 otra temporada, esperemos a ver c贸mo contin煤a esto.
Si no la han visto, los invito a darle una oportunidad y digan que tal les pareci贸, hasta la pr贸xima.
