Da Vinci's demons isn't too bad, as long as you're willing to accept that it's in the fantasy genre.

The series is about a historical figure made by people who never opened a history book, if you can deal with that then you probably will enjoy it to an extent. When I say to an extent, I mean it's not a brilliant show (the acting, the plot.. and what especially disturbs me is the supernatural aspect of it which is just not suitable for a series like this), it tries to convince you that it is intelligent but in fact is far from it.

But as I said before, as long as you're willing to ignore any links to reality and history, it is watchable.

Wow! I wish I was 10 yrs old and had never seen any movies before because I would've loved this one! But whilst I was watching this one I just couldn't stop thinking of other movies that this one was ripping off, without even trying to hide it! Fair enough it borrows only short bits of other movies but it's irritating, it feels like someone just picked a ton of movies and cut tiny pieces of each one and glued them together. The number is countless. Off the top of my head I feel there's bits from: pirates of the caribbean, dune, gladiator, star wars, avatar, conan, last samurai,lord of the rings, cowboys vs aliens....

There's more, just can't remember and if I'd seen more movies I'm pretty sure I could find oh so much more.. I'd have to watch the movie again minute by minute and point out every section of how it's copying other movies and that's just not fun. Don't get me wrong, on the whole the story is original, just not the parts it's composed of.

I'm a huge sci-fi freak and I've watched a lot of crappy movies and series that I absolutely loved just because they're sci-fi, but this one just didn't appeal to me, regardless of the cgi.. The topic of this rant is a word play, go ahead and figure out what I mean.

Oh! What was really annoying is that in the first hour into the film, the lead character is playing a part of an overgrown emo-kid, not cool!

wow, I had to add more words in order to submit my review to make it 10 lines of text, Archer (the main character) would just shag the person in charge of these rules and make them forget about them... Anyways, read on because it's right to the point :)

The series is drawn like a bad He-man cartoon, so obviously the animation style isn't why it's so high on ratings. It's a no holds barred kind of cartoon, the humour is something that you wouldn't expect to see on TV. Being a bartender, our sense of humour is crooked to say at the least, so to me this series offers very little, but I really do understand people loving the shock effect of having cartoon characters just tearing into subjects that are politically incorrect, in so many ways! But besides the "rattling" effect, this series is rather boring.
