Watching BSG, by the end of the first season, you know you're seeing something rare. By the middle to end of the second season, you'll be convinced you're seeing what will be some actors' and writers' best work of a lifetime. Ron Moore took a premise that was kind of kitschy and turned it into a gritty, dark reality with social commentary laced with larger moral/societal questions. From 33 onwards, it was non-stop action for humanity's last 50k survivors, on the run from their AI experiments gone wrong.

Would love to see this picked up for third run. The final episode leaves some room to take things in few directions. If HBO or someone with GoT style budgets ever get hold of this and gave it to an R. Moore level talent, well....we may never leave the family room.

While the writing for the Justice Society was pretty weak and some of the cinematography over done, the Rock's performance as a conflicted anti hero was actually pretty good! It wasn't the usual Pollyanna hero or 'All bad all day' villain stuff you see in Marvel or the usual DC. He does a solid straight man and the 'I'm thinking thru this as we go' comes across in the Wolverine'ish and Deadpool category.

Felt above a 6 to me and worthy of a sequel, albeit with some meaningful rewriting on the Justice Society. The prospect of a Superman v Black Adam rumble could be the high point of DC's films to date! Just lord pls no more Flash.....
