Jala Bogard

Firstly, I don’t usually do reviews because every person that watches a movie or tv show will like or dislike different things. But, this show was so bad I had to warn people off it. I prefer to give new shows the benefit of the doubt, especially sci-fi shows such as this one. It can take time to build characters, settings, and storylines. However, even I have a limit. I could only make it through episode five before I called it quits. That may make my review biased or useless, but based on what I saw I could not force myself to click the play button once again. The first episode or two held some promise as I was interested in the concept and how the world would be portrayed if such an event were to occur. Then the second…and third…and fourth episodes happened where I didn’t care for any of the characters and the plot simply dredged on. It felt as though the writers didn’t know how to make this a show rather than a short limited series or a movie and there was so little plot to keep me interested in each episode. Another downfall of this show is the main male lead. I do not know of him in anything else and I’m sure the writing did not help, but I found him to be so arrogant, obnoxious, and horribly annoying to the point I couldn’t help but cringe every time he spoke. Overall, I feel I’m being lenient with giving this show two stars, but Diane Lane (cast as Yorick’s mother) gave them one extra star.

While this film looks fantastic and has intense action sequences that audiences are sure to enjoy, the story falls flat in comparison to its prequel. It seems as though the moviemakers were more focused on Diana's love life than her powers and her ability to make the world a better place.
