Inhumans

I'm shocked this was released in theaters. I understand pilots can be bad at times but this show is weak. Bad special effects don't help the bad writing. The stunts are stunted like the maker's Iron HamFist on Netflix. The electronic versions of 60's hits playing make it pretty funny. There's a reason fans or ABC/Disney is downvoting negative reviews here. That reason is even Variety(who gave The Dark Tower a good review) went to levels I've never seen before to let it be known they thought Inhumans was pretty horrid. If I had to guess, ABC's attempt to draw in teen viewers who aren't familiar with the comics turned this into something you'd expect to find on ABC Family. Prepare yourself for the Chronicles of The Inhumans, or better yet don't. Unlike the low-budget scifi shows you can find around cable, this production doesn't understand its limitations. If you were disappointed by Agents of Shield this won't lift your spirits. Another bad Marvel production. Disney isn't very good at this.

Before I watched this show, I had a void in my life. There was uncertainty in my life. When someone asks me what was the worst thing I ever watched, I could not answer that question instantly. I could stop, think about it, consider options and try to find which one would deserve that title. But now, everything is changed. If someone asks me that question again, I will not have to stop and think about it, I will not hesitate, I will not drown in uncertainty! Now I have a definite answer to that question! I can now answer it instantly without a second thought! Thank you, Marvel, thank you, ABC, thanks to everyone involved in this show for having such an impact in my life. Thank you!

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.

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.

It doesn't get any more lame and amateurish than this.

This is by far the worst Marvel production I've seen.

The writing is terrible.

The acting is so bad, it's like a high school drama class.

The dialog is just as bad.

The only thing decent is the directing.

I'm giving this 1 season if it doesn't up it's game.

A very generous 2/10 from me
