This show has nothing exceptional about it at all. It's pretty lame and cookie cutter. Disappointing.
Filoni and Favreau have done it folks in my world. Let me have the shows and the kids can have the new movies. Good compromise.
After watching Sherlock I had low expectations for this show. Tho I must say, I have been pleasantly surprised.
One of the most Metal as Fuck shit I've seen in recent years. WOW.. The concept, it's execution, the Art, the score, the sound design, the humanity, the awesomeness and cruelty of nature of the era. Just mind blowingly original and entertaining as fuck. All that without a single word uttered. You have to watch it to know how metal it really is.
The product placement for Windows products in this is so intrusive . . .
First episode was really amazing! Great pace, no silly fillings, all the Star Wars ingredients; from the mood, the races, the peculiar way of filming and transitions. Humor was nice and mild, but never overdone. I can't wait for the rest! <3
Very, very good, even if you don’t particularly enjoy superhero franchises, like me. Action packed, great characters, and perhaps most of all, absolutely hilarious!
Primal is an apt title. The show depicts primal violence, primal rage, primal grief. But what I was most surprised by was its display of primal empathy. Yes, the show is gorgeously and lavishly animated. There are shots that will take your breath away, and it knows when to rev up the engine and when to slow down and luxuriate in the stillness and beauty of the environment, much like Samurai Jack before it. Yes, it is a brutal and gory show- every hit has impact, and the fifth episode is bloody enough to make Mortal Kombat blush.
But the core theme running through the show is empathy. The animation pays just as much attention to the eyes as they do the action sequences, knowing that in a show without words, eyes are truly windows to the soul. A perfectly placed soft smile will melt your heart. And each episode returns to that theme of empathy. It'd be an easy excuse in a prehistoric story to say that at our primal core, humanity are monsters. But we're not- we're animals. Animals can be brutal, violent, ruthless. But they think and feel as well, and it is empathy that is the main characters' biggest strength.
It is empathy that leads them to bond and grieve together. It is empathy that leads Spear, the neanderthal, to help a pack of starving humans without second thought. It is empathy that diffuses a situation with woolly mammoths who did not want vengeance but simply the opportunity to mourn and honor their fallen. Spear and Fang the dinosaur's bond is what gives them strength, and the interconnectedness of life is reinforced even in its antagonists, whether in comparison like a group of bats and a spider working together to feed or in contrast like the group of apes that brutalize each other for the chance of brutalizing strong foes for glory. The protagonists even defeat the bats by leading them into the territory of a separate pack of beasts. Nothing is truly alone. The companionship of Spear and Fang is what sets them apart and strengthens them. Empathy is what keeps them alive. And it is that heart that elevates Primal from being not only something nice to look at, but an engaging work of art.
Fantastic show! Really loved story, art and sound tracks.
Thanks for these 10 seasons! Really appreciate this kind of funny-military-police action show!
I'll miss Steve and Danny punchlines :)
Great actors during all seasons :thumbsup:
series has ended...finally...They have been beating the dead horse for so long, it don't look like a horse anymore....
also please change from "returning series" to "ended"
The main cast was phenomenal. Even most of the recurring actors were good.
I really have to applaud the writers of the show, because they did a great job at keeping my attention over the course of 5 seasons and that's not easy to do.
If you're looking for a good show to binge over the weekend, then I highly recommend watching Person of Interest.
On level with some of the greatest shows ever filmed! Amazing from start to end!!
Main character has the same abilities as superman but is shocked when she can occasionally be effective despite being female. Regressive and very unfunny. I barely got through the couple eps I did watch.
This show is a bit more of the same. I'm a Superman fan.
This is entertaining, allways care about superhero movies and tv shows but this is far from a good TVShow. Was expecting a lot more!
Hoped it would improve with more episodes. It did not. Actually it got worse...
