Hunters

Hunters is about some Nazi hunters in the late 70's in New York City that find out that there are hundreds of high ranking Nazi officials that are living among them. The hunters then go hunt them down and bring justice to them and also stop their new genocidal plans. I really wasn't sure what to expect from Hunters with all the mixed reviews, I've never seen a show so split between people liking it or not. After watching season 1, I thought it was a pretty good show that was absolutely worth watching! Now after finishing season two it became even that much better. Season two was fantastic. I don't understand what some of these negative reviewers wanted? There's plenty of action, comedy, drama, mystery, twists, etc., to please most people. It's too bad it was only two seasons long but at least it didn't go out with a cliffhanger.

I really enjoyed this season until about episode 7/8, where it took one of the worst plot twists Iv ever seen. I finished it 24 hours ago and I'm still angry at what I watched.

I am not good at reviews. I really enjoyed the show.

The negative thing that stood really out for me is the "german" language used in the show. That is not german.

If you are german and watching this in english, listening to the pseudo-german spoken in the show is almost unbearable. Most (mostly all) german sounds like if amercian actors had learned some approximative phrases by heart, without knowing what they are saying.

That makes it sometimes ridiculous, but overall kept my enjoyment still very high. Would have been higher with real german voices.

I know that people who don't understand german wouldn't notice and so will have no impact on them.

I quite enjoyed season 1, and would rate it at 7-8. I thought it was well done, thought provoking etc. I was quite looking forward to season 2. Season 2 was disappointing, almost from the beginning I had to push myself to watch. There are many episodes that have way too many guns, and shooting - likely to try to appeal to a certain audience, that is not me. (it was like a Rambo action movie or full metal jacket - except not in times of war, to the point it became ridiculous). Only a few episodes of season 2 stood out to me (eg the house). I gave up in the end as couldn't focus and it became an effort in the end. Al Pacino does a good job though.

Major things happen...on a train, in the streets, in the city...and nobody seems to notice. People who should be a lot older if they were actually important Germans from WW2 still seem to be in their prime in the late 1970s. Too many of the political issues and woke ideas of the 2000s are prominent too many years earlier. There are regular issues with continuity and people do endlessly illogical things. Okay, the end surprised me (I've only seen the first series and I'm nor rushing to watch season 2) but even that, while intriguing, didn't really add up. But I've watched worse and I probably will watch the second season.
