For a very long time I'm waiting for a really good alien invasion show or movie. And let me tell you this is not it. The first 5 episodes could've been easily be only 3 and even still maintaining a slow pace. Which in the first few episodes is really annoying, dont get me wrong I'm all for slow burn, but this is often toooo slow and leading to nothing or almost nothing. It's not slow building to something relevant, it often feels like they're jus doin it for the sake of it. The aliens design is quiet nice, resembles the ones from Edge Of Tomorrow, even tho they're not that dangerous and hostile, at least not yet. The production value is actually quiet good, attention to details is often high but overall the farther the show goes the script gets weaker and weaker. Later on some decisions by the characters dont make any sense, to many convenient coincidenses happening in every episode, lots of logic flaws. Anyways, despite all the flaws I will watch the second season, cause like I said I like alien invasion shit, I just fear the ending will be something lazy like a server/client solution like we already had in so many stories.
Hmm the way Nolan talked about Viltrum I really don't trust him.. I didn't read the comics so I don't know if what he says is verfied by earth.. Could it be that Viltrum is acutally not that cool and all friendly and hes actually preparing earth for some kind of invasion..? And thats why he killed the guardians..?
Good setting. Good actors. Good characters. Everything else bad. Also to all the racists and conservatives in the comments: Fuck you!
