Peacemaker

Terrific first ep. I didn't like his character at all in the movie but Cena shines here. Some really funny stuff and a spectacular fight at the end. The other characters including Eagly are immensely entertaining to watch. Hats off to all involved. Looking forward to the rest of eps.

The opening sequence is the best I've ever seen. Its so hypnotic I never skip intro.

This show is uncomfortably hilarious and easily one of the best superhero shows ever.

Peacemaker wasn't a stand out character in The Suicide Squad for me, so I wasn't that excited for this series, however after watching the show, seeing the character development and intriguing story line, I'm glad I decided to give it a go, I cant wait for the second season.

The casting is perfect. I LOVE vigilante, I hope S2 brings even more psychotic behaviour from him. His back story in the 1983 comic would make a great story line and help views understand why he is so messed up, and I wonder if we will het to meet 'Stuff' the Chinatown Kid.

Wow! I was Not expecting This! John Cena just blew me away with his likeability and just some of the funniest comedy I have seen since I can remember in such a show..The only other with such irreverant, side splitting ,raunchy laughs is The Boys.

His character was fun in the movie role ,but man, give this guy his own show and he just hits a home run!

Im only 1 episode in but I love it!

I loved 2021's Suicide Squad, but if you'd asked me who from the movie I would give their own series, Peacemaker would probably have been my last choice. Not that John Cena wasn't good, but who'd want to be stuck with that guy week after week?

But the brilliant James Gunn pulled it off. This Peacemaker is a surprisingly complex character with a backstory that puts his flaws *somewhat* in perspective, and also the movie is hilarious and way out there (the opening credits are a first rate dance number).

The story is great, the action is great, there are terrific performances, more touching moments than you would expect, and a lot of amazing action sequences.

Highly recommended.

DC is finding its lane as the anti, non family friendly, comedically dark (or just dark dark) alternative to Marvel and I'm here for it. Gunn continues on his raunchy, goofy take on super heroes and while I guarantee it won't be everyone's cup of tea I believe it will be a smart move in the long run to go full on with the dark, more adult adaption of comics to contrast with Marvels increasingly Disneyfied approach.
