Not sure why everybody is so excited about this movie. The detective part was much weaker than in the first movie, and the rest is just a typical Netflix annoying propaganda.
The detective is gay now, of course. The main villain is a white male, of course. The most brutal guy (Batista) is a sissy mama's boy, of course. And the smartest, bravest, strong and independent hero is a black woman, of course. So tired of this Netflix crap.
Just before you making her a hero in your eyes remember that just for the sake of vengeance she burned the original Mona Lisa painting without any doubt, which one of the most precious art heritage of our civilization.loading replies
@ragnarlothbrok you sound dumber than Batista's character. Felt personally attacked?

Lmao if the villain is white, the movie hates white people. If the villain its black, then its too “woke” movies just cant win with you guys. Also who cares if a character is gay? It has nothing to do with the story. I dont know why you people are so obsessed with sexuality its frankly a tad bit creepy.
Also you need to do some intensive introspection if you have issue with a black woman being portrayed in a positive manner. Mind you a black woman AND a white man (benoit) were the heroes of your story but i get it you hate black women so youre just going to conveniently ignore that.
Also she may have burned the mona lisa but that never would have been the case if edward norton didnt take a loan of it just for the bragging rights. It also never would have burned if he didnt have that override button to remove the fire safe protection. But yes we get it you hate black women so of course its the big mean black ladies fault for burning some painting in a fictional movie.
At some point you guys are going to have to realize that theres nothing wrong with these movies you guys just hate minorities and youre upset that all your little temper tantrums on the internet wont erase racial minorities and queer people from movies.
I just don't agree with all these comments about just watching the UK version. The Americanized Office worked, why can't this one? That is all you hear, "don't they ever have any ideas of their own?" There are countless attempts at original shows every year and no one watches them either. Starting a show with a built-in audience just make sense sometimes.
And after just seeing the hour premiere, I do enjoy it just as much as the original. They did change some of the characters and im all for the differences.

@matts Not to mention Shameless - where opposed to this I couldn't stand the original (I just didn't like the actors)

@matts I've watched both and enjoy each of them in their own quirky way.
I disagree with other comments that the pacing of this episode is slow. I didn't notice it any slower than any GOT episode. Every episode doesn't need war or intensity to be satisfying. A good show needs character building to set up further story.

@matts seems be a lot of pacing comments for this and rop. I haven't felt that at all. You have to build a good foundation.

@matts GOT fans have no clue what makes pacing good or not. They went way slower for the 3-6th seasons of GOT and then they got mad when the last two seasons went at a normal pace.

I actually think this show is moving at a way faster pace than GOT did. GOT (in the good seasons) took its time and it took a while for major events to happen. So far in HOTD a lot is happening in each episode to move the plot forward. And I think both paces work for their respective shows.

@matts I see a trend these days that whatever the show, people complain it's slow. A large portion of viewers have lost all understanding for building the plot. And as @justinnumerick above points out, it's actually quite quick honestly.

@matts The pacing of this show so far is actually faster than the original show.

@matts It annoys me when people call anything that's not a battle or a big dragon set piece "slow and boring". This is the entire point of GoT and HotD. It's political, dramatic conversations and the chess piece moving of people of power. The show really is, so far, the best parts of GoT boiled down and streamlined. It's great.
Why? Just watch the original version, 100% this won't go more than a season
Currently watching season 2 lol it certainly got better than the first episode!

@ajrobson It will survive, it's the #1 new comedy this season and #2 behind YOUNG SHELDON. You wouldn't get these adaptations if middle America didn't think British accents were foreign languages.
Other than having to mute the god-awful theme song, I'm loving this series.

@lesajm The theme song strangely grew on me...
