Classified

"Classified" kicks off with suspense, strong advocacy, and a captivating narrative of intentions gone wrong. The first episode immediately hooked me with the main character's portrayal of teenage angst and the challenges of navigating family dynamics on a global scale.

The show brilliantly captures the social intricacies of high school through various cliques and groups. Each episode reveals another layer in a maze of secrets, lies, and betrayal. The twists and turns are unexpected and satisfying, keeping you on the edge of your seat! The pacing strikes a perfect balance between drama, action, and intrigue, ensuring you're constantly engaged and eager to uncover the next piece of the puzzle.

The actors deliver powerful performances that add significant depth to the show. Their interactions feel authentic, drawing you into the story and making you emotionally invested. Ella, the lead, is my absolute favorite, with her passionate views and bravery, navigating everything from social struggles to high-stakes espionage.

Thoroughly enjoyed this series. Actors as high schoolers were fantastic in the role. Interesting to see Mandelas Johannesburg today. Good to see such a slew of young actors doing a very credible job. View of a part of the world seldom seen by us captivating. Get prepared to binge watch! Recommend series who like attractive people along with a taut script. Brevity surpasses loquacious just for a number of characters. So devalues a review. But one can mumble along just to satisfy a rigid set of requirements. Only 84 more to go. Ah, well....whatever are they teaching reviewers today....such is the life.

I don't understand why they included a reenactment of Sarafina. The show could've been just fine without making a mockery of the suffering of the ppl of Soweto. People truly suffered by being tortured and killed for no reason other than the greed of the boars. Having the descendants of those who inflicted pain and suffering to the people portrait the roles of those who actually suffered is adding insult to injury. It's the equivalent of having white people acting as slaves in America. I would encourage everyone to watch the movie Sarafina to understand the atrocious nature of this show. So unnecessary!

I thoroughly enjoyed watching this new series! I was really into the story, to the point where I was personally angry at certain characters while loving others, and I was literally talking to my tv. I didn't even see the plot twist coming, which I usually do, that's how I know it was a job well done! I don't want to give away any hints about the show but I can't wait to see how things unfold in Season 2!! Awesome job Ms. Imani P and the rest of the cast you all really did y'all's thing. I will be keeping an eye out for what's to come next, but first I'm gonna watch the entire first season again!

This show is so unrealistic,some of the storylines were so stupid and unbelievable,the rest were the same recycled storylines and characters in most shows that involve a teen- a know it all,high school cliques,the new 'tokens',evil stepmother,boy drama.

It's the same story with a little spy stuff going on.

This show is very predictable and you will see most 'plot twists' coming.

The main character was miscast,she might be 4'11 in real life and all the other actors towered over her,it looked weird on film,next to the other actors she looked much younger than them.

Most of the acting was bad(except the step-mom and son Kwame). A few of the high school kids did well like Darla,and the 'richest kid' with the helicopter.

I'm an adult and I do watch some of these shows that are marketed to young people. I enjoy some of them. I think that people under 20 might like this show more that I did.

I still gave it 4 stars because it wasn't a bad idea,it was just badly executed and had too many outrageous,silly parts.
