One Bad Day

And here comes episode 7 of Punisher series.

This episode proves the show can stay on feet without Amy's story. I am still thinking her case should have ended on episode four or five, and then the show could have been slowly introducing Bill's stuff after that. But, anyways, as I said this episode is focused only on Bill and his first work as criminal, with Frank following his steps to finally take care of unfinished business. I liked this episode, stunning performance of Ben Barnes, really doing a good job to fit the character.

Wait for it, people. Because the end will let you wanting more.

Seven episodes into this season and I think it has become clear what this season has been lacking for me. Sometimes programmes like this just need periods of pure intensity to keep the audience enthralled.

This episode had three sequences in particular that I enjoyed a lot, but so much time is wasted on side plots which are significantly less engaging and could be used more effectively. Jon Bernthal's and Ben Barnes' respective performances were the strongest points of this episode for me.

"One Bad Day" is a tremendous episode. There are many moments to enjoy in this rollercoaster instalment.

Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio's terrific portrayal of Marion James is wonderful. "Have you ever had anyone, a stranger on the street, tell you to cheer up?" she asks a permanently scowling Madani.

When there are moments of humour in the series, they're few and far between but they hit the mark like one of Castle's bullets.

Floriana Lima delivers another strong performance as the troubled shrink, Krista Dumont. There's a very believable chemistry between her and Ben Barnes' Russo.

This episode leaves the viewer desperate to view the next one. Heart pounding televisual goodness.

Unlike some I enjoyed this episode. A good sense of momentum seeing it through alongside some returning faces. The heist set-piece is the suspense highlight and the climax quite something.

Jon Bernthal deserves a Golden Globe for his portrayal of Frank Castle this episode from start to finish is completely brilliant, I'm really hoping Netflix doesn't cancel this one! Every episode unfolds like it coming straight out of the comics, just pure epicness!
