The Umbrella Academy

Very entertaining series about superheroes, where superheroes have a life, a character, dramas and traumas... But what in my opinion raises it above the already good series is the use of music in the movie. Remarkable, impressive, needs to recognized with an award. It's been years (pulp fiction?) since I saw such a perfect use of music for the last time!

After season 2 everything went downhill. We had high expectations but we ended up with garbage. Season 4 is especially bad, you can practically feel the hate toward the viewers. Not to mention the contradiction galore and stupid plot.

!!! Anyone who forces others to listen to Baby Shark is an *'/+%*) and should be painfully and slowly tortured then executed. !!!

I recommend to watch only the first two seasons and forget about the other two. It will keep you calmer, saner, happier.

The ending is almost Dexter level bad and we still did not get every answer and because of that a real closure.

Really enjoyed this show but the last season completely felt out of sync with the whole show. Ended in such a dumb way. It had potential but this seemed like a huge after thought. None of the characters except for Claude seemed like themselves. It's so sad they have so much trouble ending these shows on a good note. This season while it has some interesting parts there was so much missing and most of the characters did nothing. Why so short also. Getting really tired of these 6 episode season where the writing is crap and nothing happens and it's called a season much less a series finally. Blah.

Season 1 and 2 are Incredibly entertaining, wildly inventive, and full of complex characters with a fresh new idea in a world of superhero content, by providing something deeper and more personal than most superhero content dares to attempt. His casting is amazing. The show is also excellently shot, notably its cinematography during its action sequences. Its writing and directing is often on point, inciteful at times, and the show is also full of delightful twists that kept me more than interested as the show went on. Besides all these excellent traits, The Umbrella Academy also has a fantastic soundtrack and a wonderfully nostalgic attitude that will keep you entertained all the way through.

If the show had ended in 2020 with his season 2, it would have been one of the best Netflix series, but the show kept going and the 2 next seasons are so bad that i will never watch them again in my life. The characters were butchered, the plot was so boring and stupid. CGI became horrible. No more budget. I didn't even cared for the characters anymore while i loved them so much in S1/S2. There is so many problems with S3 and S4 that i can't list them all. All i know is that you will have horrible time watching those awfuls seasons...

Adrian Gallagher, Five, is a genuine standout for his acting in a series which is largely plagued by a storyline with rampant plot holes.

The writers had an initial idea that seemed to work but the series just never really comes together or finds a way to keep me truly interested. The plot drags on and the way they attempt to wrap up certain parts of the story is increasingly unsatisfying.

7/10 - Writing is just falling flat while, Five, is carrying the series on his back. Help the dude out.
