Fantastic adaptation of a great book (2 more)

Increasing parallels to current socio-political powers in the western world

Doesn't lose itself or its quality in the adaptation

Buckle up

One of the most intense and emotional TV shows I have watched, we managed to split it across two days just to get to the end but I reccommend pacing yourself as the content can be very confronting(as it intends to be). Fantastic social commentary once again by Margaret Atwood- a literary legend across genres and entertainment mediums.

Entertaining Sci-Fi film

A really good film that feels low budget but with blockbuster SFX. I didn't realise at first from the trailers it was a hand-held cam, POV film and this is handled very well with the kids abilities! Really good effects as they become stronger with their powers. Only downside the film is far too short at 77mins, the end felt kinda rushed and obvious as well. Still a very enjoyable film though, while it lasts.

TV Season Rating

Season 4 was a bit of a drop in quality, the antagonist Damien Dhark (or some other spelling) being much more hammy and cheesy than previously. It says a lot of someone can out-ham John Barrowman! Dharkkkhk (or whatever) is able to control people through mystical powers and seems unstoppable and hell-bent on taking control of the city by any means necessary. There are some good moments within the season, but in general it is a definite step-down and more of the same.

I hate books that have the plot move forward by way of the main character remembering more and more about things.

I also hate books that do this while also making you feel like you can't trust their memories at the same time.

I don't enjoy books that are predictable knock-offs. Basically, watch a Jason Bourne movie if you want to know what this book is about.

And what is going on with the weird kids who have strange powers? Not explained, not cool.
