“Acharnés” is the new series from producers A24, winner of the Oscar for best film this year with “Everyone Everywhere all at once”. A nervous, funny and modern series, reminiscent of the “Tom and Jerry” cartoons.
This is the story of a meeting. But really not at first sight. On my left, a Korean of about 30 years old, who lives in Los Angeles. Entrepreneur, a real loser, a real frustrated. He tries to follow the advice of his parents: make a fortune before starting a family and necessarily marry a beautiful Korean. On my right, a Chinese woman entrepreneur, marvelously married to a Japanese artist, who lives with their little girl, Juno, in a chic suburb, and a house arranged in a zen way.
The absurd meeting way DuelSteven Spielberg’s film, between these two protagonists, at the very beginning of the series, takes place in a DIY store parking lot, and here is an intense relationship that starts off with a bang.
This is the successful bet of this funny and nervous series, relentlesssigned A24, the trendiest American producers of the moment, winners this year of 10 Oscars including that of the best film for Everything Everywhere All At Once. A film made with the means at hand, plunged into the Asian environment and took us through time in a cheeky way. We find this punchy side, of filming camera in hand with dialogues that hit the mark in Relentless.
The sparks fly every moment
It’s reminiscent of new episodes of Tom and Jerry with characters who seek each other furiously, and do the worst dirt at every moment.
Add delicious secondary characters: the Korean’s younger brother: a handsome kid who is super talented in cryptocurrency, but denigrated by his older brother; the husband of the young Chinese, follower of feng shui, devilishly calm, Japanese at his fingertips, always accommodating…
The series, both comic and gripping, is called relentless. Beef – beef in English: because it brilliantly brings out our animal side to all. A series in 10 episodes available on Netflix.
