(VERY GOOD)
+
(+) Every single scene is incredibly stylized and looks awesome! You can truly recognize the comic book origins of this show!
(+) Fantastic critique on big capitalistic corporations and the entertainment industry.
(+) The show doesn’t shy back from showing a lot of brutality and sexual content. Incredibly mature, given that this is a show involving superheroes.
(+) Stunning cinematography!
(+) The acting performances are great! Everyone is shinning in their roles, but specially Butcher and Homelander steal the show!
(+) The plot is great and feels like something very fresh and different. Super catchy!
(+) The special effects are on point.
(+) Occasionally very funny!
(+) Amazing soundtrack with lots of legendary songs always setting the right mood!
(+) Amazing set and costume design.
(-) The plot development gets a little bit stuck in the middle of the season. Surely there is always something interesting happening, but the main plot-line just wasn’t moving forward.
(-) Some of the social criticism feels a little bit too forced and “in your face”.
