Great Kills

Someone Recommended me this show. I never heard of Tubi. It was free, so I watched Great Kills. It's a fake documentary like Trailer Park Boys I guess, but it's more realistic than most real documentaries. The main guy is badass and the whole thing is hysterical. But I like dark humor so the fact that it wasn't sappy compared to most things I see was lit. So yeah. I thought it was a tight show and I'm glad I watched it. Gonna watch the first episode or two with some friends on Sunday. Some boyz gotz to check this out.

Also, I thought Great Kills was a made up place. But it's real. You learn something new everyday.

Great Kills nails the fly-on-the-wall documentary style while cleverly flipping the genre on its head. Each episode is a sharp, hilarious satire that exposes the absurdities behind true crime filmmaking. Steve Stanulis brings infectious energy to his hitman role, and James Merendino delivers a tightly crafted, standout series. The writing is top-tier, brought to life by an exceptional cast. While the premise-a documentarian following a hitman-sounds outrageous, the execution is surprisingly gripping. The violence is raw and unfiltered, adding to the show's edgy appeal. As I binge through the weekend, I'm already hyped for what's next.

It's a great show. Steve Stanulis is remarkable as are the rest of the cast. Honest performances and on point. Shot well. Story is solid. And it's got lots of laughs.

It's an eight part series with lots of laughs. It's got a pretty cynical view on the media and life in general, which I like.

And I would recommend this to anyone that just wants a quick and fun experience.

I'm not gonna say it's a masterpiece. But it's a masterpiece. These guys nailed it. Seriously. I never write reviews. Congrats to all involved. I hope there's more to come from this group. I really had a good time. I gave it a 10.

What happens in Staten Island stays in Staten Island!

I love the dark humor throughout this series. It is a great binge. Funny and very suspenseful.

Amazing performances directed by none other than iconic SLC Punk! Director James Merendino, who also plays a key role in the series. Steve Stanulis reminds me of Michael Douglas in Falling Down.

Love all the female actors who play the co-director, the mob-boss the girlfriend and the grandma. Such interesting multi-dimensional female characters. Women of Staten Island are hardcore.

I can't wait to see where the characters are next season. What a great Tubi surprise!

Please, when is season 2 coming? I randomly found this on Tubi and to my surprise it was addictive. I've binge watched this 2 times in the past week and I wanted more. It's not over the top, done with the perfect amount of dark humor and crime/horror which really made it a solid series. Also from someone who has never been to New York and the fact that Great Kills is actually a neighborhood made it that more trippy. Genius filmmaking, other indie filmmakers need to take note - this is how you make a solid series. Good character development and the last episode really is a cliffhanger. Excellent.
