Sono vergine

Boots has done it again, immediately after starting the show you can tell that this is something special. The music, the writing, the set design, all comes together perfectly to set up another surreal world from boots riley.

Just a perfect execution of an amazing idea, the practical effects are genuinely jaw dropping. Was immediately holding my stomach from laughing so hard from the first episode.

Haven't seen a show in ages that has this much obvious care and attention put into it.

Truly radical, truly funny. Could not stop laughing.

Been telling just about everyone i know to watch it

Blown away, check it out.

Is it the constant relateability? I'm not sure but so many movies and shows that are coming of age are well done. To be fair there are plenty of bad ones too but this is not one of them. Boots riley plays with our creature comforts that we're exposed to every day. He wants you to see the familiarity as what's wrong but at the same time he celebrates it. I'm only a couple episodes in but what's clear is the lead actors are what make this show. Sure it's got some weird characters. If you didn't like soery to bother you check this out as it's a step up for sure. My parents liked the first episode but got lost on the second. It's a show about a giant it's not grounded in reality. But the ties to reality keep the heart of it.

Nice concepts, and a strong cast. Excellent production design and special effects. I like the cartoon quality of several characters and the idea that it might touch upon some facets of superhero stuff, but not dive all the way in. I've watched only two episodes, yet I can tell that I would have preferred this story delivered as a movie. Like "Stranger Things" and various SciFi series and movies coming out over the last decade, it's become really trendy to produce a far-fetched fantasy story, with quirky lead characters who struggle (or sometimes thrive) in odd circumstances. The two actors cast as his parents are committed, but their attitudes are one-dimensional... this is a writing problem, and not the actors' fault. The jury's out whether I will finish this season.

What a weird series. I mean that in the best way possible. Having loved sorry to bother you, i had a feeling there would be some political/social critiques, but by the last episode it dives fully into those. It's not subtle, but that's the point. It's meant to open the audiences eyes.

The performances are top notch from everyone, especially jharrel jerome though. He captures the anxieties that a 13ft tall man who has been hidden from the world would feel, and it feels so awkwardly realistic. I love how boots riley dives fully into the weirdness of the show as well. He clearly had his vision, and it looks like he didn't let anyone stand in his way.

I really hope there's a season 2 because they leave us on a subtle cliffhanger, but a pretty big one at that. I thoroughly enjoyed this and it's originality. Give boots riley more money to make his ideas come to the screen!!

You can always rely on Boots Riley to hoof out something profoundly weird and I'm a Virgo is no exception to this. A meditation on superheroics, corporate culture and trueness to whatever one's self is - chock full of bizarre allegorical imagery and fascinating ideas. It's an art thing. Feels very art. In that, as a narrative, it's a little lacking. Its intentional metaphorics make it come across as fairly aloof and the deep message being presented on the most corporate television platform there is feels sadder than the trollish win it's painted as in some quarters. That being said, I feel like this endeavour may end up outliving the endless turgid cape crusades from the rival corporations, and the more cynical ones of the same network.
