This is one of the hardest shows to watch - my heart races the whole time. But damnit, I almost thought she'd make it...yikes.
I am so pissed that I have to actually write whatever the fuck I'm going to write after this..... This show pretends to be "science" when it is completely NOT that. The first thing they want to find out if there is a correlation between good dancers and fertility, but there's seriously ten test subjects. Ten! And it's nowhere near a double-blind study. This show contributes to the average American that wants to watch something in which their "feelings" match the content which they already believe. Good job Netflix. One more show based on pseudoscience. I'm kinda done.
Wow. Best pilot I've seen in a long time. To have me this interested in a show after one episode is surprising; let's hope the rest of the season is this good!
Excellent show. Kept me guessing the whole time until right before the end. I highly recommend watching. I just clicked on it when it popped up in my suggestions; I'm really glad I went in blind.
Why can't people take things for face value? Absolutely awesome movie. Great special effects, predictable but satisfying story, and fun action scenes. Stop being so critical and enjoy the damn movie!
Wow - poor choice for a lead. Sooo much different than Joel Kinnaman it's impossible to suspend disbelief that it's the same Kovacs in a new sleeve. Really bad decision to not recast Kinnaman; the writing's terrible so what's one more plot hole?
I'm very upset - went from being one of my favorite Sci-fi shows to utter trash. Sad.
I've rated very few series with a 10, but wow this show came out of nowhere! Easily the best sci-fi show I've seen in a long time (maybe ever?). Kudos to Netflix - this was one hell of an original.
I'm pretty surprised at the negative reviews. Absolutely love the show and as far as flashback episodes go, this one was great. I actually really enjoyed the non-linear style. A+
I feel like I'm the only one that hates this show. I liked the first season, but this season just seems like it's taking itself way too seriously. Super slow, completely lacking in a plausible story line, and way too much meaningless introspective contemplation. Think this was my last episode....
Very boring and each story line's predictability borders on 100%. Worst Sci-fi I've seen in a while.
I don't know... Great acting, pretty good character development, but boring. I don't want to rate it because I think it just might not be the show for me. I'm a fan of unrealistic, over-the-top shows and a fan of realistic dramas. I just don't like when a show tries to do both. But that's just me....
I wish there were negative numbers for rating this episode. There's disappointment, disbelief, then unadulterated anger at the writers for ending this great show with such a heaping pile of dog sh*t. I hope to God that GRRM completes the series so I can see the actual way we get to the true ending.
I almost didn't finish it - took me three sittings. But I sure wish I didn't. Plot holes, plot holes, plot holes. Do anything with the force - all with no training. Survive space? Check. Use like a phone to have conversations with people across the universe? Check.
Also - let's forget plots that were setup in TFA. Who is Snoke? How did he come into power? Nevermind - he's dumb and let's his protege use the force to kill him right in front of his face. What is the New Republic? The Resistance? The Rebels? First Order? WTF?
Anyway, it's crap.
I really like cheesey, low budget sci-fi. But this is not that. The acting was so bad; there were a couple times that I wanted to turn it off, but I pushed through just to see if it would be somewhat worth it. It's not. I actually wish I could go back in time just two hours so I could erase the fact that I actually wasted those two hours watching this piece of crap.
Phenomenal show. Will be adding this to my list of favorite shows of all time. It had a great arc - every season got better, there were very few plot holes, acting was great, and it had a very satisfying ending. Even though they took a lot of liberties with the actual historical events and characters, it did very well at portraying the cause and the effort of the people in that time period. I'd never heard of the Culper Ring before this show, but now I'm reading more about it and other stories of the American Revolution. I will miss it...
Judging from the score on this show, I'd say most people liked the ending - not sure why the top two reviews are the negative ones. Personally, I loved the way it ended. The way that the movements actually served a purpose and confused the shooter was brilliant. If season two goes the way of the story being true or false, the ending to this season remains powerful and relevant. This whole season had me wanting to watch the next episode right after I finished one - a true success and a well written show. Bravo.
Very lame ending; the season actually was going so well until the last two episodes. So many loose ends and pointless plot lines (confessions to a non existent preist then a suicide...but who cares, pointless, right?). When the ENTIRE 9th episode was a ridiculous dream sequence, I had a bad feeling about the final episode. All to similar to the ending of the Sopranos - such a good show, but why'd they have to ruin it with a poor ending? Disappointed.
It's one a.m. and I'm still watching this show. I am really impressed.
Boring. Felt like you knew what was going to happen the whole time, and then you find out you did.
Not having any backstory and not knowing why everything was happening made for the worst episode of Black Mirror hands down. Boring.
I was a huge fan of Breaking Bad. I hate this show. But more surprisingly, it seems that I'm in the minority. The way everything is up to interpretation, the scenes that are waaaay too long (there was one episode that did this in BB - "The Fly"), and the slowness of plot. Sure, there were slow moments in BB, but they were always trumped by the crazy, action packed moments. Also, the characters in Saul are over the top - not relatable or believable.
All three seasons of Better Call Saul could easily fit into one and would most likely be much more entertaining. I can understand why they do this, though - they want to milk this show as much as possible, but can't go past the beginning of Breaking Bad. They want to be artsy-fartsy, but the writing is amateur at best - start an episode with a foreshadowing moment, then predictably end it with said moment. This episode was the lantern, previous episodes have been the Pollo trucks, Jimmy's old antics resurfacing, etc...
If this show was not a prequel, it would have been cancelled by now. Huge disappointment. I will be tuning out until the last episode is announced - watching that one episode will be much better than putting myself through the torture of wasting tens of hours on who knows how many more seasons.
Wow...this show is one of the best I've seen in a while. And I agree with the last poster - release the rest! lol
What an utter piece of sh*. No resolution and no continuation of what the plan originally started with. Suddenly his wife and his child that got "kidnapped" (by people that were completely uninterested at first but then started chasing her on bikes 30 minutes after her "escape"), then he amazingly knew exactly where her child was, and then, her Fu**** mom knew the exact coordinates of not where she was, but where she would be after her dad picked her up in a Fu***** helecopter! OMG, I have too many run on sentences here. Basically, I'm all about comedy and suspension of disbelief, but c'mon, did an 8th grader write this? After writing this and seeing how this show has actually made me write and think in English so poorly, I'm changing my rating from a "two" to a "three." They have officially mad me more stupid.
Please don't listen to anyone that says this is not a good movie. I'm super critical (granted, in a not-so-popular way), but this movie hit it out of the park. Sure, there were predictable moments, but damn it, we're human. Give us something we can relate to. I was thoroughly engaged and entertained the whole way through. Bravo.
Pretty sure they died. Not a big fan of movies that try to be really deep while attempting to focus more on the human condition rather than tell a story. This "you decide what happened" movie falls short in my opinion. Never found out what was happening, why it started, what it was, how it affected some people differently, etc...If you have anything else in your queue, I'd suggest skipping this one.
Too artsy-fartsy for me. Needs more actual story.
Wow - super great show. They definitely left it open for a third season; let's just hope it gets picked up!
Wow, creepy. Definitely darker; didn't focus on the future tech enough IMO, but ok nonetheless. Not my favorite episode for sure. But that damn pizza truck - caused a lot more than just a broken arm.
Ok, why is this last episode so highly rated? He saves a robot just to have all the other robots on the planet to come back and attack them because he saved that one (after a major character gives his life to do so). THEN, that said robot saves them (after he's totally cool riding back with the others to the ship where the people that saved his life reside) for just enough time to get only the kids off the ship to go where they all have been trying to go all along.
Um, ok...cool.
Could have been sooooo much better with a different ending. Loved it until the last 2 minutes.
