Invasion

I really wanted to like it more. The overall plot is great and I liked learning about the characters. But… it seemed very disjointed and almost rushed. Which made it all seemed far fetched. That being said I will watch season 2 and suspend my beliefs.

S1 renewed & reinvigorated the dormant alien disaster genre, only for S2 to strip it to a melodrama where much is said but little happens. I REALLY loved S1 - the drama, horror and action are superb (S1E6 👨‍🍳💋), but S2 promised a lot w/o delivering. Maybe wait for S3 to binge.

It’s def a slow burn for the first season with the aliens getting maybe 10 min of screen time total. Season 2 is very good and def has a lot more to see but it’s unfinished. At this time there’s no season 3 so it ends on a cliff hanger. Hopefully season 3 wraps it all up

The series is beautiful, the story is wonderful, the visual effects are amazing, but the acting and the actors were not the best. Sometimes the acting was cheesy. I rate the series 6/10.

I really tried with this show. I could not get passed how dark it was. I understand they’re looking for a gritty alien story but you physically cannot see in some of the scenes. I really really really liked the kids storyline. Battling with the bully and such. However, this just felt all over the place and I couldn’t get behind the character development. And again - it was physically so dark that I was looking at the brightness of my screen to see if that was the issue. I still am not sure if this was there intention but I think that they over did it. Really happy for those that are enjoying it, but I can say this was not for me.

I’m just typing this part to hit the 1000 character review for the I queue points. The long winded one. I really hope no one is going to read it this far. But if you are, hey. Hope your day is going well. Hope you’re watching cool shows and movies. If you have any recommendations, let me know. I’m always game to watch something new or interesting.
