looks like it really is the end of 'hell on wheels' this season. seeing as how the lead characters are getting killed.
Really really amazing show... I would recommend it to anyone who is a fan of suspense/thrillers. It has a great plot & story-telling to it, while it explores the lives of the main leads of the show(Matt Murdock & Wilson Fisk). It keeps us holding to our seat.
Its not like other shows which are action based. it has well written dialogue to it. what i'm saying is many action shows either use childish approach or very adult one(using more abusive words). shows nowadays also use more R- rated stuff, but this did not need any of it to deliver what was promised/ anticipated. And that's what I like the most about it.
I loved the show ... just one question though ...who as 'stick' talking to when he finished his mission for eliminating 'black sky'?
and does this means we'll be seeing more of daredevil??
after 2 seasons, this feels like the worst UK detective drama I've ever seen. but it was created in 2011, so maybe it worked well then, case/investigation-wise, but the characters were shitty even then.
season 3, is even worse. they just make others suffer, in personal life & in professional lives. and everyone else gets punished for it but never them. had it been some gangsta stuff or some misguided loyalties, I'd have understood them but this is...i just can't sympathize with them. don't know what the writer thought they were doing with character development, it has made it worse to watch.
season 4, continues with the trend to promote these ladies who aren't really that brilliant compared to others & keeps firing others for little mistakes.
well guys, i haven't read the manga. actually i'm still new to watching anime. so i won't mind if any of you ignore this comment, but i for one loved this show & couldn't wait to start watching the 2nd season too. i liked the transition as the show turns dark & also loved all the action scenes.
one of the best crime drama there ever is. & the best female lead character created ever!
amazing drama.
although in 2nd series what does the cid team do? coz as i see it all the crimes were solved by Catherine
it should not be three but 10days
except for villain nobody seems to know abcd of acting and neither does the writers know whereever they are going with that plot.
waste of all the talent and money. could've been over in 4 episodes comfortably. soap operas are better than this.
i don't get it...whats the point of the show? in both series they haven't made a good arrest(each time its just circumstantial). their investigations are still open at the end of each season.
as far as the characters go we haven't seen any good behaviour from those who are investigating the alleged corrupt cops. they are short tempered,gambler,unfaithful(to the investigation as well as to their partners),...etc.I actually think there should be another Anti-corruption agency to investigate AC-12 unit.
only the character of DI Denton played by Keely Hawes looked to be a well written one.
Don't think much thought or preparation went into making season 5. They probably thought Cleaver is all the plot we need & just threw him into the political arena. Now, I can't even recognise the old Cleaver.
it's a sherlock(Robert Downey Jr) rip-off
Unnecessarily made complex. Could've finished in 2hrs.
Everything begins with the older brother & so, has to end with.
Only complaint, upto the 2nd half, was they don't really explain why it has to happen. But a brilliant sci-fi thriller this is!!
well that f*ing sucked, inn't? It was going so well till 4-5th episode. Then the Billy Butcher character suddenly disappears or follows the kid around. I'm glad they developed the kid but was it necessary to fk up Billy? & what the hell did they achieve at the end of it all? What about all the dirty deeds Homelander did? Sure, Becca couldn't leave her kid, but I really don't understand the final scene.
I do not recommend anyone to watch this!
not a great show but good enough if you're into some gangster stories. this definitely is way way different than season 1, where we see a detective obsessed over the psychology of the criminal & so continuously doing his job. season 2,has a different way of bringing the detectives to do the detecting but they do get there eventually, but then it ends up an action movie with very unbalanced power structure & therefore an unsatisfying ending, kinda rushed into it.
a little lacking script but the actors give it all, so that's something.
I liked season 1 better than season 2 as we got to see her do some investigating and be in the centre of action most of the time. But this time around we see her off balance most of the time(yes I know she is struggling with some issues but she still doesn't stop shaking even in the last episode.). And she is always one step too late for the investigation. Always chasing him even after knowing who the real criminal is. So I'm a little frustrated with her but still a good season. Worth a watch!!
loved the story & the cinematography, absolutely brilliant. Emily Blunt exceptional!
Know who really shines in these action setups, it's the villain(who has everything on line) & the main support casts(who go through smooth transition of their emotions), whereas the main hero becomes dull because there's just too much going on with him in every scene, so there's no real connect with him & the main heroine is just there as a showgirl.
Kinda expected more out of this series seeing that some remakes were made of it. But it's a typical action (-flick) like series, not really that exciting.
Slow burn time travel mix of mystery horror & psychology genres. Good drama, needs an ending though. Actors did ok enough.
a completely likable cast this season, can you believe that!?
& not a bad husband in this, can you believe that!!
they found a more toxic DS than the previous FLO. & her son, by God, he's same as her. WHERE HAVE THE DECENT LEADS GONE?
I was suspicious of the mum's bf/non-bf guy for some reason but he was never in the ambit of the investigation.
I don't seem to like her, DC Armstrong, in this season too. kinda kept feeling that she stole the case from Med. also, at the time, they conveniently sideline him, like he's not on the screen for a long period, also only she spots clues from cctv & whatnot. it all made me not to like her, also she taking back her ex, added to it.
on the other hand, the daughter seemed like she grew up from last season. also we got a little look at DI Manning, so that was good.
bad husbands getting respite from families, seems like the theme of the show. last season it was Sean, this season the dead guy & Andy
still, l liked how it all unfolded.
why did Sean keep getting respite every single time, I just couldn't understand it. also, I didn't understand the mistake the DS makes at the start of the season, that was so very un-responsible-like. I do get why she'd have wanted to but still kinda felt a bad move.
all in all, 'twas a good season.
disappointment to this whole series as season 3 runs only on one sentence uttered by a cop on morphine. other seasons/movies never ran with conspiracies. that's why Jack would sometimes believe the villains that they didn't have anything to do with the crimes.
& then there's that same old Jack and Linda thing, again. I wouldn't trust them to be faithful to anyone.
& then Jack has a kid, idk why.
only the regulars cam, harry, wilbur & gang are the saving grace
everyone accusing of racism looks unnatural in this, maybe they are bad actors or maybe the script was lacking. characters, except ps khatri are unlikable or have no depth at all. I've seen shorter dramas with more depth than this, for example The Tower S01 is just 3 episodes which also has Gemma Whelan in similar role to Rachita Ray.
they are constantly being monitored, then why didn't the organizers hear about Rafael's or Joanna's fake registration?
bitchy bitches bitching about bitch problems. the only person who should be infuriated is Maggie but she is holding herself up, holding everyone else together but these two have to be so much impatient, why? everybody's lost their loved ones, and everyone is agreed to fight. they are not finding excuses but trying to increase the no. of people who will survive the attack.
well that was absurd, extreme, irrational and scary, all at once.
now i understand Carrie's situation & her position but that scene is something when she leaves the President elect standing alone. wait, doesn't she has to lock her house?
still the one-handed man got more investigation done than everybody else.
