I was not expecting this to be as good as the first movie. We ended up enjoying this one a lot. The story was good and well written with a very good contrast of the darkness of human trafficking with the developing relationship of two brothers.
Drama and comedy wove seamlessly throughout the script giving surprises with both.
The ending was knit together in a satisfying way leaving us hoping for a third movie.
The first hour was entertaining and good acting with some famous actors in it like Kevin Costner and Russell Crow. However, the movie was about an hour too long. It was 60 minutes of fighting and destruction at the end.
I felt like the personal relationships should have been more developed. The end was not as emotional as it could have been if they had spent more time on how Superman interacted with the characters.
This show is the best Sherlock Holmes depiction. He is still the quirky and awkward truth seeker but unlike other attempts to tell his story this one allows him to be more human. To his surprise he develops relationships he considers to be friends and essential to his sobriety which he labors to keep.
All the shows in the series are complex and intriguing, showing character development and surprising twists.
It’s well worth your time.
Very well written. It shows his efforts to fit in socially while inwardly the daily struggle to be normal is only achieved by a strict daily routine. The haunting presence of his dead sister is also a constant reminder of the unwanted consequences of his dark need for blood.
Some of the acting is not great. The main actor is good. The show is boring when he’s hunting the bad guy or finding the lost but the story of his own family tragedy is interesting.
A show just about his family with work more in the background would be better.
