Stags

I thought the concept of the show was unique. Sure, it's unusual but at least it hasn't been done a 100 times. There's definitely multiple funny parts throughout the series and I felt the acting was excellent. The set designs are ulcerative and it's fun to watch them navigate those "prison" and how it operates.

When it ended I was rather excited to see the second season as it leaves on a bit of a cliffhanger. I look forward to seeing the dynamics of the characters and how they develop after betrayal. I enjoyed getting to see some of the actors I've seen in other shows take a lead role, like Corin Silva from Rogue SAS.

Don't know why there's so many hateful reviews on here, maybe they are just looking for another knock off attempt at The Godfather.

This is a great series, loved it!

Full of twists and turns that were totally unexpected

. Some really funny comedic moments that had me in hysterics.

A clever concept that had my cerebral mind wanting more, would love to see a second series.

Visually i found it stunning and i love the way it was filmed reminding me of some French Italian movies .

Its a Very fast paced show I actually watched it twice as there are many understated nuances, which are maybe not picked up the first time round.

Excellent performances from all the cast especially the lead Nico Mirallegro, also loved the kai and john characters and the south american parts all well played.

I had high hopes for this comedy-thriller but boy does this drag on.

No idea why it has such a high rating on IMDB either. Its not a bad plot but the writers have pulled a half-good idea like an elastic band.

I've watched three episodes but have now officially given up with the poor acting ,second rate script and unrealistic sets.

Life's to short to watch the whole series so maybe it gets better ? I guess i'll never know.

So much for falling for the press previews.

It will be interesting to see what other viewers make of 'Stags' but my monthly Paramount subscription is not getting renewed .

I watched the first three episodes with the appropriate attention, but I'm now on the fifth and my mind is wandering and I'm not entirely sure what's going on. Not a particularly good sign.

There is little in the way of characterisation and the protagonists/antagonists just sort of blend into one. You get to the point where you keep checking how long is left on each episode, willing it to end. If there's any doubt, I'm not a fan.

A really good story keeps your attention, you can't wait to see how it ends. I don't really care what happens, I'm going to turn it off now. To paraphrase the great Barry Norman, I may be wrong, I have been before.

I won't spoil anything about this trash show, but will say I was a moron for hate watching the entire thing. The premise of the movie is a combination of The Hangover, Shashank Redemption and the book Of Mice and Men. The big difference is that it didn't have any of the smarts of either the movies or the book. It claims it is a comedy/drama.... NOPE. Not one funny scene in the entire 6 episode run.

The only likable character is Ryan, who is like Lenny from the book, Of Mice and Men. He is loyal to the end and too dimwitted to know his own shortcomings and those of others. ALL and I mean ALL the other characters in the series, you just hate with a passion.

The storyline is a group of friends goes to an exotic tropical paradise for a bachelor party. Naturally, they find trouble or trouble finds them (Hangover anyone), The premise is the only comedy in the entire series. They screw up and end up getting arrested and sent to prison. In prison, they try to plot their escape, but the prison is a hellhole. They try to escape and meet and work with various other characters in prison to escape (Shashank Redemption). THAT is where the similarities end with those great movies.

The remainder of the series is them screwing up all their attempts to escape. The lack of any moral compass makes it hard to root for any of them to escape. I will end of super general review here, but to say the least you would not be missing much by skipping this show. I hope I saved some people's brain cells who are smart enough to avoid this show.
