Do Not Sleep

"Send me a "KILL TEAM" to bravo 3 sector NOW!!"

"Okay, clear that request .. we're a good 20 Mike's out from kill team 2. Roger that over bro!"

That's the best you can do? Started out so well in season 1.

Also half these episodes are literally pictures spliced into a movie. You can literally watch it stop and start every 1 to 3 seconds with the next frame. It's not fluid in any way. You can see how stiff their acting is this season.

And I understand the virus is ruining everything good these days but this is a straight up cop out! You can't find but a couple of frames with 2+ main characters together at the same time & same scene! It's a little deceptive trick they use to make it appear 2 ppl are really together acting at the same time. Almost like a burst shot video. NON STOP. Episode 5 the worst.

And there are errors everywhere! Audio, video, editing.. and trying to make everyone look perfect with these ridiculous over the top hairdos and clothes and flamboyance styles. It's just so obvious it's an act so unbelievable.

It's almost like everyone was forced to do this season and were held against their will! Sad. And extremely low effort this season!

One of the best shows I've binged on in quite some time. If you suspend critical thinking like the ol' 2 wire car hotwire, sidearms holding 30 bullets in a standard magazine and a few other flaws and just allow the story to entertain, You'll be entertained.

The first two seasons were just good enough to motivate me to refresh my memory and dive in for the third. What I found was a compelling one-day binge that kept tightening its grip on my attention span as I proceeded. I can't say that I'm pleased by every plot decision along the way, but when the dust settled, there was a laudable balance of bitter and sweet, with admirable resistance to typical studio pressures for happy, tidy packages with pretty bows in the final fade. Like any contemporary action flick or series, there are dubious moments (like so many bullets flying from so many weapons in highly-trained hands doing so little damage), but those improbable scenes are essential to moving the plot along without losing principals prematurely. Best of all, they actually packed six tight episodes worth of story into SIX episodes, rather than stretching the material over eight, as too many other productions have done. Thanks for saving us from the usual 2-4 hours of buzzkill filler that waters down the impact of most series' seasons.

It's taken me a while to get around to season three of "Hanna", around a year in fact since this final season arrived on Amazon Prime. It's through no fault of the show though, as I've enjoyed the previous two runs. This too, was a worthy season and rounds out a series that was much better than I thought it might be.

With Hanna (Esme Creed-Miles) returned to the Meadows and under the guidance of newly turned Carmichael (Dermot Mulroney), the young assassins are given their first missions. Hanna endeavours to save her target Abbas Naziri (Adam Bessa) and his young daughter. Marissa (Mireille Enos) discovers to her horror the identity of The Chairman (Ray Liotta) and must decide how far her commitment to her mission truly goes.

This third season is two episodes shorter than the previous ones and fortunately were written as an ending to the story - or at least to the Meadows aspect of the story, there are other plot strands that could be picked up on, if they ever decide to revisit it. That ending is mostly satisfying, even if Ray Liotta is rather parachuted into the last few episodes as a new "big bad", though it is perhaps a bit of a contrivance when it's revealed who he is. Nice to see Liotta though, in what would prove to be one of his final few roles. All the performances are good, with Enos particularly impressing in these final shows.

Again, the shows strength is probably it's simplicity. I never felt confused as to the goals any of the characters have or what they're trying to achieve.

It surprisingly rare to see a series as consistent as "Hanna" with a true beginning, middle and end.

I thought this the third series was the best yet - and was almost as good as the original film itself.

The acting was superb from all the cast, and the tension was sustained throughout.
