V-Wars

Ok, so the acting's a bit cheesy and the storyline is somewhat predictable but the effects and gore ain't too bad. Worth watching a few to see how it pans out.

I've seen better, but i've seen ahell of a lot worse. You get to know the characters quite quickly, also feel a certain empathy towards them. The acting isn't terrible, and the script is fine. Think the bad reviewers maybe have a vested interest in slating this for some strange reason

Shows like See and this one have enough potential, but the writers seem to think that their audience is unquestioning. Why on earth would the most valuable scientist be sent out to hunt for the vampires with the police - I'm hoping something that ludicrous wouldn't happen in real life. There are a few illogical bits woven into the overall storyline, but it's not a bad watch. The vampires don't sparkle or read poetry which is a plus.

V-Wars started good, interesting with promise, but went downhill pretty fast.

• The biggest problem of the show is lack of logic continuity in the script and flow of the episodes. You constantly have island storylines forcefully glued together.

• The characters and their acting is mostly a mess with zero character development. Even, those who are acting good like Calix Niklos and the kid are dissolved in the acidity of the show.

• Ian Somerhalder is Not believable as a scientist. Never was, never will be; Nor is he believable being a guy handling pistols and submachine guns, let alone bigger weaponry. His character's play is forced, shaky, not scientifically right and just wanting his son!

• Connection and chemistry between characters are as strong as the ones between a shark and a seal.

• Special effects, besides the slashed necks, are a total wreck. Vampires' faces and gaping mouths look like filters added by a mobile app; Just some teeth scenes are made good. The substance used as blood is as blood-like and near as paint mixed with syrup is.

• The amount of money wasted on this show is forever gone and lost until a possible season 2 wastes another big load.

• On a plus side, it is watchable in one day, if you have nothing else to do.

Throughout the episodes, I thought that it definitely deserves a season 2, but after seeing the final 5-10 minutes of the last episode, it became clear to me that it's better to let it be as it is and save whatever pride is left of the writers and producers.

I made it through (almost) 4 episodes hoping the script would sharpen, the acting would improve, the settings would become interesting. Wooden, hackneyed, waste of time. If they'd had the courage to make this a spoof of every bad vampire movie, it would have been hilarious. Unfortunately, it's all played with a serious face and even some of the actors seem bored or happy with their first "big" break on screen.Meh.
