Paranormal

Before you watch: This is not an adaptation of the books. This is just loosely and poorly based on the books! I never knew that a book adaptation has to mean that you only take the names of the characters and do every single thing else your way. That is the case here... They got the names of the characters right, and that is about it! It is a slow show... Extremely poor stories and very anticlimactic conclusions. They turned the main Character from the sarcastic yet lovable character to an irresponsible, weak and for some reason always has a sad face person. Add to this the very lazy writing and the very cheap visual effects and you get this series. Calling this Mediocre is a nice compliment. The one star I gave it is for the good color correction. I really tried hard to find a positive point.

When i decided to watch this series i did not know what i'm gonna see,but from the first episode i found myself into it and that's for multiple reasons: -the decors and the setting of thoses periods of times in the arabian countries they really did a great job there. -also,the egyptian and libyan arabic they have done it perfectly it doesn't feel like they translated it from english to arabic. -Samma Ibrahim ''Raeefa Ismail'' all i can say about him is that he's done a remarkble effort in playing his character..as well as the othere characters except some of the kids they didn't convince me with there acting.. even though the series still has cons like -a lot of questions are not answered -the CGI they used was so bad..i mean really bad,and they tried to hide it with the darkness in the scene and the camera movment but they didn't succeed in that one,plus,a lot of events rely on CGI. also,the relationship between Raeefa and megie was so cold and cringy and other things that i don't wanna say for the sake of not spoiling any thing. still this does not diminish the value of ''Paranormal''. if you love horror, mysteries and suspense like me..you'll definitely love this series.
