Citadel: Diana

I made the mistake of seeing the first 2 in a dubbed version. Watching the original with subtitles made it a lot better.

Great actors, decent story, no black/white world but shaded and futuristic weapons that seem plausible - loved those!

What is it made of? Still thinking about a name - nice wink at the audience there :-) Anyway I loved it. Still have to see the last one but nr 5 was so good I had to come here and check out the reviews.

Ignore those people who think they are interesting infinding eloquent ways to say something is bad. Most of them probably haven't even seen the whole thing. See for yourself!, you'll thank me (or not).

Jobs.

While Citadel: Diana had the potential to be a captivating international thriller, it falls totally flat in almost every aspect - except for Matilda. This feels like a low-budget series from the '90s. The storyline feels recycled, lacking any depth and complexity- unlike the first season. The pacing is uneven, with predictable twists that don't land anywhere. The show struggles to create meaningful tension or character development. The Amazon executives who approved these scripts should consider changing jobs.

Matilda, however, is the standout. She is the ONLY reason to keep watching the entire episodes which are painful to watch. She has a natural screen presence that captivates, and it's clear she's destined for greater roles. Hopefully, we'll see her in a major U. S. production soon, where her talent can truly shine.

In the end, while Citadel: Diana may not live up to expectations, it's worth watching just for Matilda- an amazing talent.

In a nutshell, this was just poor writing. Skilled narrative skills would have helped this plot and idea be more interesting on screen. It's decent effort by the actors but the story and writing just doesn't help. Didn't enjoy any part of this. In my opinion the entire citadel franchise is a letdown. They are trying to shove more and more down audiences throats cause of the contractual obligations. The indian adaptation is coming next which already seems like a snoozefest. There have been so uplifting spot in this franchise since the Chopra madden season which was a huge let down. Can skip this one.

Maybe it is not a great history or a great production. I did not expected it to be, and I am not knowledgeable enough to be a critic. I have enjoyed a few hours of an action/ scifi/ spy tv show, and, not the least, the beautiful Matilda de Angelis.

I agree with the reviewer that one should watch and make their own judgment. It should not be a problem being in Italian, or centered in Italy, or using very long guns, or the tech that would make a secret cafe conversations impossible (unless they also have a tech to cover the conversation, which I believe is a reasonable expectation).

I do have an issue with picturing cold assassins as heroes. A more realistic character development would improve the show. But that is just me.

Wow! This was a terrible waste of time on a holiday weekend. But, I really should have managed my expectations better since the first "Citadel" disappointed--after a very good pilot episode.

Anyway, "Diana" is greatly hampered by constant back-and-forth between time, and so-so action sequences. The worst thing, though, is that the series doesn't know how to TELL a story. There's no character development, motivation beyond the very superficial. The actors are all Italians--and not really well known in the U. S.

The Italian locations are great to look at, but the convoluted story undercuts everything.

Given two strikes, I'm not sure I'm going to watch the next "Citadel" installment that premieres in early November.
