Inhumans

I concur - yes, it started off really naff. First episode I said to myself, what is this rubbish? I started to do housework and it was on in the background. By episode 3, it had my full attention. Still corny, not the best but really not as bad as some people are making out. I lost interest quicker watching Iron Fist. It's hard to find something to watch these days and some people are swayed by these reviews so try and be objective; give it a chance till the end before slating it, should you really need to.

Were to begin... This series is atrocious. The acting is dull and boring, the story is lazy, the characters are one dimensional, the CGI is awful and the production as a whole feels cheap.

One redeeming quality this has is Black Bolt. Anson Mount has a quite good physical performance. The dialogue of the other characters is almost as bad as the characters themselves. Awful. Would not recommend in any circumstance.

2/10

I don't get where all the hate is coming from, for a pilot it was able to fascinate and excite me, the actors portray the characters excellent, it has a deep and underlying plot and the CGI is okay. I am looking forward to the next 6 episodes and hope the next episodes will be just as good or even better as the first two.

Watching the first 2 episodes I gave it a 7 - and asked you to watch it yourself & not listen to the bad reviews online.

I'm now pulling my 7 - and replacing it with a 5. This show has a few decent dialogue scenes, but most of them are plain stupid, as in reason wise stupid.

I'm sure this show wasn't cheap to make, but it has the look and feel of a show with a limited budget. If you think of any of the above-average shows on SyFy Channel during the 2000s, you'll get the right idea for both the feel of it and the quality. It's decent entertainment, with decent actors, delivering somewhat poorly written dialogue. The story is a good one. A good setup with great potential. It's perfectly legitimate to ignore the rage monsters who railed at this show during the early previews. Yes, paying IMAX prices to watch this is insane. It's a mediocre TV pilot. But the rest of us aren't burdened with that critical crutch. If you consider it as just something that aired on network TV (which doesn't have much interesting entertainment these days), then it's a solid start. I suspect people who know the characters from the comics will like this a little more because there's less confusion over what's going on. I didn't need anything explained because I already know the Inhumans pretty well. If you don't read the comics, your mileage may vary.
