As usual, this show is not nearly as bad as the 1 star raters say nor as "amazing" as the 10 star folks say it is. I read the book on which this was based, as I had read Martin's original Song of Ice And Fire a many years before HBO made it into a series. Very similar in the way they are laying groundwork and cut to the chase and streamlined many characters and houses so that it's easier to follow. This was a good first episode they can build on. Give it a shot and see how it plays out. So far, so good.

This is not a superhero movie. This is not a CGI extravaganza with aliens and space ships. This is a dark, crime solving drama that moves along at a slower pace with character development and a plot, with good intermittent action scenes. Thoroughly enjoyed this. Not sure if most kids or pre teens will enjoy this. Did notice a few younger kids in the audience getting "antsy" and being shushed by parents (although the parents seemed to be engrossed). Very well acted- hope this is not a "one off." They lay the groundwork for future installments that I will eagerly await.

Wow, where to begin? This movie was so bad, it may be the final nail in the coffin of the already struggling DC movie franchise. The plot and screenplay were pathetic, as were the hammy overacting and special effects. The scenes with WW slingshotting herself with the magic lasso were so hokey and visually disappointing, it looked like a cable network B movie. I sat there for 2+ hours waiting for this to get interesting. What a shame- really enjoyed the first WW movie as well as Justice League. This was a huge step backward.
