The Umbrella Academy

Adrian Gallagher, Five, is a genuine standout for his acting in a series which is largely plagued by a storyline with rampant plot holes.

The writers had an initial idea that seemed to work but the series just never really comes together or finds a way to keep me truly interested. The plot drags on and the way they attempt to wrap up certain parts of the story is increasingly unsatisfying.

7/10 - Writing is just falling flat while, Five, is carrying the series on his back. Help the dude out.

Robert Sheehan as Klaus for me is the best thing about this show. Overall it got better as it went on. Looking forward to a new season.

Very entertaining series about superheroes, where superheroes have a life, a character, dramas and traumas... But what in my opinion raises it above the already good series is the use of music in the movie. Remarkable, impressive, needs to recognized with an award. It's been years (pulp fiction?) since I saw such a perfect use of music for the last time!

The show started so good with season 1 and 2, but like every other show or movie that explores time travel, timelines and multiverses, it's easy to get lost along the way. After so many changes, plot lines, characters dying and coming back alive, losing or gaining powers, it really starts to look like nothing makes sense anymore. Yet, I had some hopes for last season. Having watched the whole thing I have to say I'm really disappointed and genuinely sad. Every once in a while I watch shows that start good and finish bad, and I usually still recommend them cause the good in the beginning is "worth it", but this is not the case. The last season is a total mess, writers seem to have gotten lost in the complications of all the plotlines and totally forgot what the show was really about. The plotlines made no sense, the main plotline had no explanation, they did ALL the characters so dirty, they left many (important) questions unanswered, and the finale felt so disconnected to the start of the story. To all honestly, right now I'm grieving a show that had so much potencial and just ended in the worst possible way.

Really enjoyed this show but the last season completely felt out of sync with the whole show. Ended in such a dumb way. It had potential but this seemed like a huge after thought. None of the characters except for Claude seemed like themselves. It's so sad they have so much trouble ending these shows on a good note. This season while it has some interesting parts there was so much missing and most of the characters did nothing. Why so short also. Getting really tired of these 6 episode season where the writing is crap and nothing happens and it's called a season much less a series finally. Blah.
