Wicked City

It's cool for the most part. The acting is decent and sometimes over kill as usual. Started off stupid, but it got better. I get it, a bunch of women coming into their powers and trying their best to overcome obstacles and find answers. A newcomer that doesn't know she's a witch (nothing new at all) An eager to jumpstart her powers witch that is childlike and annoying at times. A grounded one. A sexual one. A mature one. Yay you have your coven. A mentor that basically shuns the newcomer until b.s. Starts to happen now the explanation starts when all of this could've been avoided instead of hiding the truth. I despise lazy writing. Anyway I gave it a 5 just because. It's not bad, but like I said...i despise lazy writing.

As I like series that consist of witches, vampires n werewolves I thought I'd give this a go as the write up sounded pretty good.. Let's just say the write up is better than the series.

The acting is very poor, and out the whole cast of about 25 people I'd say there is only 3 good actors in the whole series.

The cgi is terrible considering its made in 2022 it seemed like it was made in the 80s b4 cgi came about.. The story line is all over the place n jumps from 1 thing to another.. If it wasn't for the sex n the swearing this could easily be viewed by 12 year olds, Its not one for adults unless u want to be bored to death n just think to urself omg this acting n cgi is ridiculous n pqthetic... They have left the end of season 3 open but please dont make a season 4... I only stuck it out cos i thought it could get better, but i was wrong n thats a few hoirs of my life i wont get back lol..

Dont bother urself with this rubbish.

No decent storyline Out the whole cast is about 3 good actors n the rest need to go back to drama school.

The cgi might aswell have been done by a 4 yesr year old.

Boring show ...

I am sure this appeals to a very small group of people who will overlook its flaws because the flaws are pretty glaring.

The general premise is good, some of the actors are good for an occasional 10 seconds ,in an occasional scene. But everything else is the lowest it could be.

Looking at the credits, the writers, directors, producers, actors ... most have this as their first credit. I also assume they self funded this.

So if you know what you are getting into this is fine. Don't compare it to anything else it will come off badly.

Its is filmed in close up I assume because the sets are so small. Though it looks a bit strange when they are moving to be so zoomed in.

The storylines are incredibly simplistic so don't give a lot to the actors so most of their lines are cringe.

Throw in regular pointless sex scenes because that will obviously make it better.

They do "magic" for reasons though not sure what the magic is even attempting normally.

Basically if you are not 100% in the niche you are going to resent wasting the time to read the title.

For fans of fantasy and sci-fi, this show has potential and I guess we need to see where it goes. Hopefully it will start to take itself more seriously, cast members will actually speak instead of whisper, and each episode won't end with a group of screaming girls (or witches) panicking about the situation they find themselves in, cause that's already gotten old. It's the classic tale of good verses evil, although acting on the evil side is disappointing, always dressed in black and trying way to hard to appear evil. I guess we will need to wait and see although I am not holding my breath. But if the next episode ends with a bunch of screaming girls falling all over themselves screaming and panicking i am switching off.

The only reason I wouldn't give it a higher rating is due to the clear or quality audio and video! I think the storyline is great! I love Vanessa Bell Calloway and will always give something she is in a chance! I am glad I did! I hope they keep going with this one! It's nice to see women of color in this genre. I also believe that if it stays the filmography will improve. I appreciate that is is not the same as the charmed reboot which I also like but I LOOOOOVE THIS! Don't leave us hanging with only 5 episodes. If you plan on taking it away after just one season at least finish the season! I love Sharice! She's giving "Remy Ma" if she was a witch Vibez!
