Not sure what movie people watched... its a action comedy, they aren't known to be life-altering. By comparison to others in the genre however this is one of the good ones. Great comedic timing, nicely choreographed fight scenes and camera work. A lot of reviews mention a Ritchie likeness, to me it seems like a mix of Ritchie and Tarantino (Kill Bill).

People balk to quickly about storylines, pacing, acting, sound, etc... because they are writing reviews right? That's what they are supposed to do... but like probably a lot of them, I'm not in the business, I'm a movie watcher so I review based on what I know. Was I entertained? Yes, I was.

Cancelled... so sad. This show had a lot of promise to it. It's amazing to me some of the shows Netflix chooses to continue on with and those they choose to cancel. Granted, it is of course all about money and I know not everyone would be into this show but by comparison there are some huge bombs that have somehow gotten a second season on Netflix. I think it boiled down to a lack of advertising on their part as to why this wasn't a bigger hit.

I was very interested in seeing where things went after the first season. I like to see super hero stories that go beyond towing the over-done and over-hyped archetype of Marvel. But, I guess we will have to wait for the next one to seep through the never-ending cycle of comic fandom releases. Until then The Boys rule the roost for me.

Well made? Yes. Well acted? Yes, all around. Entertaining? Yes... when it's not over-working itself to be socially woke. What bother me about this series is it tries tooo hard to create storylines that just aren't true. If Murphy wants to delve into true-life crime then he needs to work on not taking such EXCESSIVE liberties, especially when choosing someone who is so well documented.

There are so many inconsistencies to the truth here. I understand peppering a narrative with some extra drama to keep it interesting but this is beyond that to me. By the 7th or so episode it just got to be too much, although I did finish the series. The most compelling episode to me was the episode with Tony. Its a shame more time was not spent on the victims.

I believe real true-crime fans would have preferred a more realistic approach to this story. If you want to embellish I to this extent, create your own serial killer and base him off Dahmer. Oh and stop with the time jumping, in this case it did you zero favors and made very little impact to the story.
