an above-average action show
I binged this show in like 2 or 3 days, the story was extremely gripping and kept me on my toes. In all, it was pretty good. Nothing groundbreaking but solid. I thought the whole superheroes thing was a bit dramatic but also that's on me for picking a superhero show when that's not my usual style.
The only thing really notable is how they included mentally handicapped characters in the show without it being weird or a huge deal. I have never seen another drama do it so gracefully.
The CGI was pretty good, it's Disney after all. I felt like the whole cast had really good acting chemistry as well. They also gave the bad guys backstory and emotions which was a nice touch that's hard to find (although heartbreaking). The plot line made sense for the most part, it was convoluted but not really in a bad way. It was a little slow in some parts but nothing too bad. I really appreciated how it didn't rely on revenge too much in order to make the story happen (my #1 pet peeve in all shows).
NOTE: it was extremely gory. Like maybe the most gore I have ever seen in a show (I have seen some really gross ones). They were really toeing the line between necessary gore and just trying to make the audience vomit.
I would recommend this to anyone who loves a good action story, especially if you're into superheroes. Would absolutely not recommend to anyone squeamish.
