(TV SERIES) Presumed Innocent Season 1 - Not Exactly the Courtroom Drama I Expected

I read about this series sometime ago on the internet which looked promising from the way it was praised. It was released on Apple TV+ since mid of June and finished before the end of July. But as I was busy with many other series/movies that caught my attention earlier, I only gave this a try last week. OK, why don't I just get right to it then?

Brief Story Line

Rozat "Rusty" Sabich (Jake Gyllenhaal - Road House 2024 remake, The Day After Tomorrow etc) was a family man living in Kindle County with his wife Barbara (Ruth Negga - Ad Astra, Loving etc) and their children Jaden (Chase Infiniti) & her brother Kyle (Kingston Rumi Southwick). Rusty who was the Chief Prosecutor of the county was shocked when he was informed about the murder of fellow prosecutor Carolyn Polhemus (Renate Reinsve - The Worst Person in the World etc) in her own home.

(TV SERIES) A Good Girl's Guide to Murder Season 1 - A Refreshing and Enjoyable Mystery Solving Series based on 2019 Hit Novel

As I said in one of my post few days ago, there were many new interesting movies and series released on Netflix last week. Amazingly this series managed to be in Top 10 in Indonesia after just 2 days, making me even more intrigued. So I started watching and finished it during the weekend. Well, how about it then? I'll just get on with it.

Brief Story Line

Pippa "Pip" Fitz-Amobi (Emma Myers - Family Switch etc) was a 17 year old high school students who was best friends with Cara Ward (Asha Banks - The Magic Flute etc) since 4 years old. As part of her school project, Pip decided to write about the murder/suicide case that occurred 5 years ago. Although her teacher Mr. Elliot Ward (Matthew Baynton - Wonka, Ghosts TV series etc) suggested different topic and despite the strong advice from her parents Leanne (Anna Maxwell Martin - Code 404 TV series, The Duke etc) and Victor Amobi (Gary Beadle - In the Heart of the Sea, EastEnders TV series etc), Pip still went ahead with her project.

TAROT - An Anthology Mystery Movie

I had known about this movie that was supposed to be released in July along with few other South Korean films. But when it was finally shown in Indonesian cinemas last Friday, I seemed to have missed it. I only realized when my wife noticed it was playing in the same cinema we wanted to see another new movie. So we ended up having another movie marathon day. OK, let's just get to it then.

Brief Story Line

Movie was divided into three different stories where each individual received a mysterious Tarot card and started to experience something major that would affect their lives. First story was about a single mother Ji-woo (Cho Yeo-jeong - Parasite, Beautiful World TV series etc) who had to leave her young daughter alone on Christmas night. Second story was about a man (Ko Kyu-pil - The Roundup: No Way Out, Shadow Detective TV series etc) who was afraid for his life when going back home. And the third story was about a delivery man (Kim Jin-young) who had to endure difficulty with one of his customers.
