Ok, I admit I have a man-crush on Chris Hemsworth. This might have contributed to my liking this movie. The dialogue, while terse, is just enough to provide context and help us figure out the characters. The action is pretty much non-stop, a la John Wick. This alone, together with the cinematography was enough to keep me glued to the screen. Although set in Dhaka, Bangladesh, much of the shooting took place in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India. While the Gujarati signs were replaced with Bengali signs, the extras and scenes take us to this old Indian city. A bit eerily, the movie reminded me of the time I was almost killed by a Bangladeshi thug for money on a trip near Ahmedabad decades ago. Even now there are millions of illegal migrants from Bangladesh in India, and quite a few are engaged in criminal activities. Ironically, many of these criminals now reside in Canada, my current home, as refugees. This personal connection made this movie particularly riveting for me.

Like most of the other DC shows, this one is targeted towards women, especially lesbians. Most men will find the storylines too shallow and campy. The plots are nonexistent, and the dialogue is tedious. The female characters might as well be made of plastic. Constantine is the only remotely interesting character on the show. Definitely one of the worst shows on TV. Save your brain cells by avoiding this show.

Incredibly poor storytelling and acting. The female actors appear to have been hired solely for their looks. The continuing lesbofeminist theme is meant to distract from the potholes in the plot, which is almost nonexistent and an insult to the viewer. The acting is almost as bad as that in Pandora. A new female character is introduced into the storyline almost every week, meaning that they are very poorly developed. I am surprised that Batwoman has a lower audience rating than Supergirl, especially because it is a much better show, with better acting and storytelling.
