Citadel: Diana

I do t know what people expect these days but I'm if they are smart enough to say the writing was bland and so on then please write one...please! I will say that having attractive characters helped...i liked it enough to want to see the US Citadel with choppy and madman even though many have panned that too. I don't see how it is worst than any Oops movies out there like Mission Impossible...really. They should have tightened it up and it needs more depth but the measured action scenes were good enough although I will never understand how she didn't break her back. They need a 2 clearly and up there game but folks take what you get times are tough and Hollywood is in trouble.

One person is obsessed over a haircut and the other is upset because it wasn't in English? Lmao gtfo. This is a good follow up to the original with a solid story line. Watch it for yourself and be the judge and PLEASE disregard these children who are close minded. From the original it was stated that Manticore was manipulating the world from the shadows. So not really sure why someone is upset because we got a story from Italy. When we know that manticore was formed from families around the world....

Like I said give it a watch and you be the judge. Too many people these days act like they are movie critics online because they know no one will listen to them in real life. I said what I said.

Another cliched mess offering nothing original just a rehash of better movies. Good actors does not make good video when all the other aspects are so lazy.

This is the sort of quality which makes me think AI has taken over Hollywood. So unoriginal just a scrap board of film and TV which has done well over the years.

There is also something strange about the audio. Like nothing was shot on site but all done latter in ADR and ADR done by someone who has no idea what they are doing.

Scenes are eerily quiet with so much background noise missing, voice has no inflections and sounds like in a studio.

Maybe it gets better in later episodes but it has too many problems for me.

Maybe it is not a great history or a great production. I did not expected it to be, and I am not knowledgeable enough to be a critic. I have enjoyed a few hours of an action/ scifi/ spy tv show, and, not the least, the beautiful Matilda de Angelis.

I agree with the reviewer that one should watch and make their own judgment. It should not be a problem being in Italian, or centered in Italy, or using very long guns, or the tech that would make a secret cafe conversations impossible (unless they also have a tech to cover the conversation, which I believe is a reasonable expectation).

I do have an issue with picturing cold assassins as heroes. A more realistic character development would improve the show. But that is just me.

Better than the big budget English language take which is uneven; tries too hard. I quit that show after two to three episodes.

On the contrary this series grows on you, drawing you in, after two episodes.

This Italian version is smoother, less cluttered. It holds a consistent style than the bigger production USA series. It has neat special effects like the weaponry that don't dominate the story line.

The series relies on effective dialogue, tension & intrigue.

The two lead actors hold their own. The film pulls off the storyline without a huge budget with effective production.

The show grows on you as entertaining sci-fi. It a fun, diversion; binge-able.
