Peacemaker

Going into this show, and looking at some of the reviews, i had semi high hopes for it, and i sure wasn't very dissatisfied. The comedic value of this show is only topped by a select few animated shows, and great pacing along with an amazing soundtrack really bring this whole show together.

But there are things that aren't particularly spectacular as well. The acting was just fine, although John Cena really shines with his performance here. Other than him though, everyone else is just fine. Nothing special, but definitely not bad. Another thing is the story. An alien invasion really isn't the most unique story, but it fits with the theme i guess.

Overall i really enjoyed this show, and would recommend it to people looking for a good time.

The opening sequence is the best I've ever seen. Its so hypnotic I never skip intro.

This show is uncomfortably hilarious and easily one of the best superhero shows ever.

Peacemaker wasn't a stand out character in The Suicide Squad for me, so I wasn't that excited for this series, however after watching the show, seeing the character development and intriguing story line, I'm glad I decided to give it a go, I cant wait for the second season.

The casting is perfect. I LOVE vigilante, I hope S2 brings even more psychotic behaviour from him. His back story in the 1983 comic would make a great story line and help views understand why he is so messed up, and I wonder if we will het to meet 'Stuff' the Chinatown Kid.

Peacemaker was every bit as good as I had hoped for. I'm case you were wondering this takes place immediately after The Suicide Squad and much like The Suicide Squad, this is absolutely a show for adults with all the violence, language, etc and I loved every second of it. John Cena has come so far as an actor, he continues to get better and has followed The Rock to be another A list actor from the wrestling world! Gunn definitely put his stamp on this having written all 8 episodes and directing 5. If you're looking for a great action Superhero show that will make you laugh out loud then this is the show for you. Can't wait til Season 2!

I loved 2021's Suicide Squad, but if you'd asked me who from the movie I would give their own series, Peacemaker would probably have been my last choice. Not that John Cena wasn't good, but who'd want to be stuck with that guy week after week?

But the brilliant James Gunn pulled it off. This Peacemaker is a surprisingly complex character with a backstory that puts his flaws *somewhat* in perspective, and also the movie is hilarious and way out there (the opening credits are a first rate dance number).

The story is great, the action is great, there are terrific performances, more touching moments than you would expect, and a lot of amazing action sequences.

Highly recommended.

It is so cool to see a bold, crazy show running up nowadays. I really miss the old days when no one cared about who you offend with your movie/series, and this show brings back that feeling. Hats off to James Gunn for this.
