Invasión

I'm a sucker for a good apocalypse and alien invasion story. Invasion showed a lot of potential in the beginning, delivering plenty of mystery around the aliens, their arrival and how they operate.

Sadly, there are two things letting this show down. Firstly, the editing and production. The first season in particular spent time building up an interesting scene, only to cut away to a different character's storyline before the climax. We would return to the original story layer, by which point our tension has diminished. Secondly, there is too much focus on human love stories. Each of the main characters has a love interest, most of which are in some form of conflict. This detracts away from the actual mystery and drama around the alien invaders.

It's a shame, really. The acting and visuals are solid, and the build up of the aliens and invasion themselves are actually pretty good.

Annoying and completely stupid acting actors. Rarely seen a more unlikeable main character than Aneesha. The series is absolutely average, although the first season is significantly better than the second one. In the second season, the actors rarely acted logically in my opinion. The series can easily be watched on the side, it doesn't require uninterrupted attention. Unfortunately, the spark doesn't really jump over in terms of the characters, cast and above all sympathetic characters would probably have helped. Average entertainment, I stuck with it, but would have expected and hoped for much more.

I had to fast forward through several parts to get through it. Way too much drama stretched out in each of the character groups. You start to lose sympathy for some of the characters.

Also, the character Mitsuki Yamato is the most annoying of all. She acts like she's the only lesbian to exist on the planet. Always angry and very immature throwing tantrums through out the whole time. Even after 1 year into the event, she's acting like a spoiled brat. Grow up and put your big girl panties on!! Someone like that supposed to have an administrative position in JASA? Pleassseee, so un-realistic. SMH.

Characters are poorly written and boring. There's so much unnecessary drama and most scenes are fillers. Aliens are just as lame as the characters in this series. Entertainment level zero.

If you loved rings of power, you will love this one too. It will leave you empty and annoyed. Avoid like the plague.

I would ask you to stop making series like this one, but you won't. So, what's the solution? Leave a bad review, rate it 1 star, hope people will read this and will avoid it.

And to all the bad writers out there who made this possible... you made a terrible mistake when you chose to work as a screenwriter.

I really loved the first season and so looked forward to the second one. But what a waste. The kid who hates his mother and has one deeply annoying emotional register for the entire series - I cringe when he's on the screen, as well as his cliched ever-suffering mom - just no! Enough. The Mitsuki character is the only one with whom I'm now engaged, other than the actor Shamier Anderson's soldier. Anderson acted his socks off in the first season. But he had a role. But where is he now? And don't get me going on the stereotype hipper than hip tech boss, who knows what's best for everyone - omg, what were they thinking? It's as if they took all the weak aspects of the first season and focused on those at the expense of everything that was truly riveting in the first season - its visual beauty and the mystery of love and friendship in a time of horror and the unknown. What a shame. I'll keep watching it until the end, but my expectations are completely blown.
