Warrior Nun

Sorry, but I have to start by saying how beautiful Alba Baptista is. It's almost distracting how beautiful she is. Now, as far as Warrior Nun goes...I actually enjoyed it a lot more than I expected to. For some reason I thought it was show aimed at tweens but I couldn't of been more wrong. This is a fun supernatural show for anyone. It's about a young woman who wakes up in the morgue after dying and has newfound powers that help in the battle between good and evil. It may start off a little slow for some but after a few episodes it really picks up and very interesting. All the characters are well written with interesting back stories. Alba Baptista is terrific as the lead and has a very bright future. I'm looking forward to this new season coming out.

First, I must say that I watched it through. As such I at least gave it a 7. I never watch anything through if it's not at least a 7.

Overall I liked the show, but after I finished I felt it could be so much more. For the good parts, the acting is overall good, specially from Ms. Alba. She's really expressive and charming, but for me her dialogues were too cheesy and teen "angsty". Teen "angstyness" is something really prevalent in today's shows, specially on Netflix, as the target audience is mostly teenagers and twenty somethings. Yeah there was an evolution in the characters attitude through the episodes but not that much. Too much drama and teen conflicts and too little action and fighting on her part. I hope in second season she gets the chance to to more. The overall plot is interesting enough, but it only started showing what it's about in the last episode. This season had serious pacing problems. Too much time spent with teen drama and romance, and too little in the actual plot. The show is called Warrior Nun for a reason. Several dialogues had me cringing. The teeny rebellious jokes were overused. So those were the things that harmed the experience for me, pacing, bad dialogues, specially for the main character and the over focus on teen drama. That said I was left wanting to see more in the second season, so here am I hoping for things to get better.

I literally cannot handle not getting a season 3 after the season 2 finale. This is such a unique story and I love all the characters. Please don't let the story end here! Ava has gone through so much throughout the show and she has grown as a character as well. We see how much the characters love each and if it is a possibility for there to be resurgence of Mary then that is what I expect once we get season 3. This show is incredibly underrated and if I could fund season 3 myself I literally would so please watch it because there are so many ways this story could end. I found myself absolutely fawning over avatrice but also the way all the other characters supported them!

I didn't even know that this series existed before stumbling upon it on Netflix one evening by browsing through the contents on Netflix. The synopsis for "Warrior Nun" sounded interesting, so I sat down to watch it.

And I ended up binge watching the series. Yeah, I must say that it caught on with me right away. I enjoyed the storyline and the characters portrayed in the series. And I must admit that I was surprised to find that they actually made a TV series of a comic book that I used to read back in my teens.

Well, the story told in "Warrior Nun" was definitely entertaining, because there were a good solid main storyline and the sub-plots that ran correspondingly with the main storyline were quite nice as well, and they were tied rather nicely in with one another. And "Warrior Nun" was definitely more than just a TV series focused on the main character Ava (played by Alba Baptista), because most characters in the movie definitely contributed something interesting and entertaining to the storylines.

But not only was the storyline good; the action in the episodes was just spectacular. I was really impressed with the action scenes and sequences throughout the episodes. That was definitely something that brought a great amount of enjoyment to watching the show for me.

Visually then "Warrior Nun" was just spectacular. The special effects and CGI in the episodes were rather good, and definitely added a very dynamic, if not realistic, layer to the show. And special effects definitely help to cement a series such as "Warrior Nun", to make it stand out from the countless other series readily available with a press of a button.

It should be said that the cast in the series was rather good, and they definitely had some interesting actresses and actors cast for the various roles throughout the show. Aside from the main actress Alba Baptista, "Warrior Nun" also boasts the likes of Kristina Tonteri-Young, Toya Turner, Thekla Reuten, Sylvia De Fanti and Joaquim de Almeida to mention but a few.

I was generally very impressed with season one and entertained by each episode. However, I must admit that the ending to the last episode was rather anti-climatic for me, and it just sort of felt like the air seeped out of the balloon at that time. But luckily there is a second season coming, so that is good news.

My rating of "Warrior Nun" is a sure seven out of ten stars. This series is well worth the time and effort.

This show is Soooo good! Other than having lesbian nuns, warrior nun is such such a badass show like the cinematography, the scenarios, THE STUNTS! The emotions are beautifully executed, so sapphic, the whole plot is amazing and it keeps on building up form season 1 to 2! Alba Baptista character "Ava" is so well developed and her chemistry with Kristina Tonteri-Young "Beatrice" is absolutely perfect, I'm in love with them.

This is the type of show manga/anime - science fiction don't want to miss. I don't understand how Netflix doesn't promote it. It's incredible.

"In This Life or the Next, right?"
