Apocalipse V

V-Wars started good, interesting with promise, but went downhill pretty fast.

• The biggest problem of the show is lack of logic continuity in the script and flow of the episodes. You constantly have island storylines forcefully glued together.

• The characters and their acting is mostly a mess with zero character development. Even, those who are acting good like Calix Niklos and the kid are dissolved in the acidity of the show.

• Ian Somerhalder is Not believable as a scientist. Never was, never will be; Nor is he believable being a guy handling pistols and submachine guns, let alone bigger weaponry. His character's play is forced, shaky, not scientifically right and just wanting his son!

• Connection and chemistry between characters are as strong as the ones between a shark and a seal.

• Special effects, besides the slashed necks, are a total wreck. Vampires' faces and gaping mouths look like filters added by a mobile app; Just some teeth scenes are made good. The substance used as blood is as blood-like and near as paint mixed with syrup is.

• The amount of money wasted on this show is forever gone and lost until a possible season 2 wastes another big load.

• On a plus side, it is watchable in one day, if you have nothing else to do.

Throughout the episodes, I thought that it definitely deserves a season 2, but after seeing the final 5-10 minutes of the last episode, it became clear to me that it's better to let it be as it is and save whatever pride is left of the writers and producers.

Shows like See and this one have enough potential, but the writers seem to think that their audience is unquestioning. Why on earth would the most valuable scientist be sent out to hunt for the vampires with the police - I'm hoping something that ludicrous wouldn't happen in real life. There are a few illogical bits woven into the overall storyline, but it's not a bad watch. The vampires don't sparkle or read poetry which is a plus.

As a Virologist, I have always found the concept for the cause of vampirism been a virus to be quite innovative & not outside the realms of possibility.

With that in mind, I found V Wars quite interesting. The polar regions are vastly unexplored territories so we don't know what lies breath them. So, the beginning of Episode 1, where the Prion existence for causing a virus infecting people with a disease that turns them into vampires is a great way to start a plot, that can offer many different angles for which the story can go.

While the plot turns out to not be as strong as I first envisioned after Episode 1, the ensuing episodes do makes an interesting story of humans ingenuity to combat the virus in every shape or from.

I found V Wars very entertaining. The characters could have been individually explored in greater detail, so as not to become mere caricatures of the actual plot. But the story is enjoyable enough to provide solid entertainment. The episodes do flow well with interesting stories.

I hope there is a season 2 so that the plot & story can be further developed.

I've seen better, but i've seen ahell of a lot worse. You get to know the characters quite quickly, also feel a certain empathy towards them. The acting isn't terrible, and the script is fine. Think the bad reviewers maybe have a vested interest in slating this for some strange reason

I tried, but too many times normal standard protocols from 20 years ago are not followed.

1. Law enforcement heading to a known shootout and none of them have vests on. My local town cop wears his vest off-duty at a Pizza Hut.

2. Multi-million dollar technology, equipment and surveillance yet after finding someone via satellite from across the country somehow there are no cameras in main building, no doors locked in classified room/building and only one guard watching. I can't even get into the supply closet at work, yet here we walk/sneak in and out of militarily-controlled facilities.

3. Main actor never seems convincing, especially as a brain surgeon(remember Denise Richards as nuclear physicist in the Bond movie?).

4. Coincidences galore. Somehow in middle of forests, random alleys, or strange towns someone will pop up to save the day. That's okay a couple of times, it happens about three or more times per episode. There is zero tension.

5. Lights....very little of it. Houses, buildings, alleys....have little or no lights. People constantly walking into rooms and not turning on the lights. Regardless of stupidity, no one especially with events happening, would wander around a room in the dark. Even the military faciltity had what appeared to be 20-watt bulbs.

6. The subplots are numerous, boring and do not add to story. Definitely overuse of manufactured drama.
