The Brave Ones

Nothing short of amazing .. it can only get better if new seasons are allowed.. I think, let the Powers that be allow season 2 and take it from there.. Nothing has been done in SA storytelling in that level so far. I feel critics should be less harsh on the first season and allow the maturity of both crew and production. As it develops, it can only get better as it polishes itself with the experience that all involved acquire, as they work on each successive season.

I also appreciate the fact that not too many usual faces were used. We can only on earth greater talent with that mindset and approach.

It's great to see a fantasy that draws on people and culture from South Africa instead of DC, Marvel, Star Wars, or video game. It's not that there's anything wrong with those, it's just that the formulas and over-the-top effects are don't improve the final product. I enjoyed watching the Brave Ones during the course of some days rather than just binging it.

I wish the episodes had been longer than the 35 minutes or so which were allotted so that the characters could develop a little more depth. Solid acting with credible emotional content. Although not totally original, the mythological backdrop was a pleasant change from the more classical mythology I studied in school and which keeps the formula fantasy blockbusters in production.

I hope the show is picked up for a second season, and not just to resolve the surprise ending.

This is Marvel meets African spirituality, the lead is underdeveloped and her acting is amateurish at best, the villain she's great and honestly she carries the whole series. This show has many problem, first of all the cgi is cheap, the score is not the best, the whole feel fails to transport you and in to their world, the tone struggles between soapy, thriller, action or horror, too many storyline and very little focus, besides all that I still had lots of fun, just suspend your disbelief and if you survive the first 2 episodes, it gets much better.

I love the mythology behind it all, I just wish they focused more on the leads journey to discover and learn her powers more and cut a lot of unnecessary clutter.

While it's true some of the transitions had to take place in my head (I know how to extrapolate) they actually caused me to be more invested in the story. I won't nitpick it to death over nonessentials I'll just say "where's season 2??". I'm going to be very angry with Netflix if this turns out to be another great series that they inexplicably drop in the middle. I thought Netflix had rethought their whimsical ADD attitude when deciding whether or not to continue series that everybody loves.

This series is another great cultural film that gives us glimpses into the life of people not us. I ♥♥

I loved it . I think people are used to billion dollar cgi n Avengers stuff . The story led that suspense they did not give away too much . I say give its course . How many shows started n we kinda said eh but kept watching Zombies lol. I believe the team of writers and actors wil definately grow more . Develop more . I have seen shows that people praise and cant sit 15 minutes . I know there is alot the writers and producers and actors have not even hit yet . I have never seen any Shows or Movies that have tapped into African Mytholgy . I am a Santero that derives from the Yoruba so this made me even more excited . Great job !
