Krypton

As a fan of the Superman films old and new I was pleasantly suprised at this refreshing take on a story thats been told as many times as the death of Bruce Waynes parents. It's not without its issues, the acting is a bit wooden and emotionless in parts but its got my interest for now. Some people have commented on the CGI being poor, i'm thinking the exact opposite, I think its pretty good for a TV show. It's a bit strange seeing Krypton with such a modern look but thats just me thinking back to the Christopher Reeve days. Let's see how the next bunch of episodes unfold but I will be watching the next one thats for sure.

Apparently if you like a show these days you are automatically a fake account. Of course these opinions are from the same people who believe that because your parents are British you should have a British accent. Forget the fact that you were never exposed to them or their culture in the first place and instead raised on a farm in rural America. I digress.

This is an interesting new show set in the DC Universe Obviously revolving around the Superman mythos. Unfortunately much Like the rash of crazed fanboys who continually slated the new Star Trek series (solid 9 by the way, do yourself a favor and binge the whole 1st season before you judge), Many reviewers feel that you should not watch this for yourself, just because they said so.

Yes most of the actors have British accents and yes you will probably dislike some of them but aren't emotions what a decent show is supposed to evoke? It's a good start and yes there's room for improvement but there is plenty of opportunity for good story lines and I for one will finish out the full first season before I make a final decision.

I loved the show until episode 8, when I kinda just felt that there wasn't enough action, and it was just acting like a soap opera, it lost my attention quickly, I think what they tried to do was good, but the execution was poor, and some the plot points ended up quite cliche. I would be happy to watch this as I love the DCEU, but this was just dry.

I understand that it's cool to have an origin story to Superman, which is way better than Supergirl, but they needed to think of more plot twists. Possibly the main reason I disliked the show was because of the lack of action. I think the budget and production values are good, but they needed more set-pieces and intrigue than just relying on peoples attention spans. Maybe it's just me, but this isn't as good as other sci-fi programs I've seen. I would had rather seen another series of 'Dark Matter', another amazing show from this company than this.

I'm out on this... won't be coming back for Series 2! Scores (out of 10) Production Design= 8 Acting=6 Visual Effects=7 Script=4 Action=2

Seg-El and Adam Strange and the Collector of worlds, Val-El, Lyta Zod all excellent. Villians are strong and story line deep - Keep it going writers. I hate spoilers so you will get none from me. Enjoy

Grant it I never took the time to learn about Superman's origin, this is a great story line. I thought it was going to be boring but it's not. It's also not very fast - each episode has a reason and purpose so bare with it. I highly recommend for any comic lover. I don't even like Superman but this show isn't bad!
