The movie felt rushed. It felt disconnected to it's predecessor and missed to impress on a lot of areas. Sure it was visually stunning, other than there wasn't much I liked about it. Hopefully they can resurrect in the finale.

Nearly 3 hours to build something magical and incredible like they did in the first film and they dropped the ball. The acting was inconsistent and disappointing. Not sure how you flop this bad when the first film was done so right.

However that being said usually the second film of a trilogy is to build the story which they did in this film. I liked the original Dune better in this regard even though they didn't give us much. Let's see if they can close the series out properly.

Do not think, just watch. Save your neurons for the resplendent masterpiece which awaits you. I knew the moment my local comic store owner gave me the green light on the series it was going to be a winner.

I am awarding this a 9 because it is almost a perfect show. It handled the LGBTQ issues well and didn't sound preachy or proselytizing. I enjoyed the concept of Danny the Street because I lived on Santa Monica Boulevard and La Jolla and it reminded me of Hamburger Mary's and the surrounding clubs.

The show achieves a brilliance in its conceptual play and employs a very polished script. Not many holes to poke in this one. Pure enjoyment that doesn't stale like Legion did. I was basically done with Legion after Season 1. Doom Patrol still has me on the edge of my seat halfway into Season 2, and doesn't look like it will give any time soon.

Other than maybe MODOK or What if?, this is a very unique comic-inspired show. It has all the great elements you love in a good comedy, drama, even a thriller, packed into one show. Plus it's in the DC Universe....sold from Episode 1.
