Unbalanced fighting skills
eunbi053015 February 2021
Warning: Spoilers
So when Hazel and Cha Cha broke into the Umbrella Academy's Mansion we had Hazel fighting toe-to-toe with Luther, and an unarmed Cha Cha was struggling against Allison. We have seen that if Luther isn't full blown ape he can fight fairly against Diego, and when the latter fought Hazel it seemed like Hazel would dominate the fight if #5 didn't intervene, besides later on the episode, when Hazel is fighting Cha Cha, she manages to get the upper hand of the fight? What kind of unbalanced fighting skills do they have here? So weird.

Besides, how can they truly be okay locking Vanya up? Diego that quite often disagrees with his brother hastily accepts what he wants? Klaus that is judged by others can't give his sister a second chance? Allison giving in to Luther considering that her powers made Vanya grow up repressed? Even Luther, he started to become so rebellious about their dad's choices, but then he accepts to lock her just because of her powers?

I am enjoying this series, but there are a lot of questionable choices here that are clearly done to suit a specific result the author had in mind, even if it doesn't suit the characters, and that is bad writing.

for the dud says annoying & rated 1 star down there.

Making a character that you really hate, detest is a kind of art, and that's the detail about that character they built up. so the film is just good & his acting is fine so you didn't find it boring because of the acting, it was because of what he did made you mad at it. but it's a success for the director, since that detail is made for viewers to hate that character. That's just my thought about it, not really sure.

Superb Episode
Hitchcoc22 September 2023
While we don't like what we see, this episode explains a lot. We look in in a logical way because we have the luxury of seeing every aspect of the story. If we were to be fair, we would know that Vanya wants to return to the family. Her powers are only precipitated in moments of intense rage. All they had to do was look in her eyes as she peered through that window to know where her heart was. If there is anyone to blame for most of this, up until Neanderthal Luther, it's the guy who now has fifty knives sticking in him. He manipulated her for his own gain and Allison became the result. And their indifference toward their sister who never did anything but become an accomplished violinist. Well, the chickens are now coming home to roost. There is one episode left in this season and things are at a boiling point. Instead of directing her fury at the world, Vanya now sees her brothers and sisters as enemies. That is good writing! You naysayers who give this show ones and twos find something else to occupy your time.

How the turntables

Definitely a few shocking moments in this episode which was a welcome relief. Still though, still a lot of nonchalance and inaction from the majority of the characters. Everyone agrees "we should find Vanya", then proceed to go home and not search for anyone.

annoying

Luther is probably the dumbest, selfish and most annoying character in the whole history of Netflix shows. Just when there appears a possibility to end the Apocalypse, Vanya decides to forgive her family and reunite with them, what does he do? suffocates her and locks her in a cage. And nobody even does anything. it's been a loooong time since I wanted a character to die so badly

Wtf

Really, I love superhero stuffs but this series is so wrong. Like, most of the characters are just taking paths that have nothing to do with their backgrounds. Like, Luthor caging Vanya because Pogo - who he claimed to be "the last person he believes" - is totally non sense. Vanya killing H. Jenkins just because he lied to her? Wtf? She was pictured as a good common girl and suddenly she is turned into a merciless assassin. Anyway, I am sad because this show could have a good potential.

Had a slight bit of potential and ruined it

Fed up of the ridiculous inappropriate music every time cha cha and hazel have some sort of fight..

And wtf luther is the most idiotic literal ape brained character in any show ever. Vanya getting locked up is plain stupid. Way to turn her into some evil psycho!

Ive had to fast forward through so many scenes because its just painful to watch.

What a waste of time with almost zero enjoyment factor, wont be watching the second series. Looking forward to the end of season 1 so i dont feel like i have to watch any more, the plot basically evaporated over the last two episodes. I dont like any of the characters in this show, hazel might be the only ok one..! Cant believe my friend actually enjoyed this series, i seriously doubt their taste after watching this. Slowest show ever..
