A fun well rounded origin story, fantastic action, tongue in cheek comedy, great stunts, excellent CGI and a great adaptation from the original comics. As a fan of Marvel comics and cartoons since the late 1960's, people (trolls) are getting way too serious about what is and should be a fun adaption of comics. Yes I said comics not graphic novels!!!! Don't take yourselves so seriously because if you are going to nitpick every little detail about the story lines of Marvel comics then do yourself and the rest of us a favour and just read the comics and don't go to the movies. Highly recommend this you'll have a fun time.

Red in the Box
26 November 2013
Warning: Spoilers
Spoiler Alert!!! Yet another epic episode. The FBI lure Red and his bodyguards back to base as Liz is supposedly in trouble. Snapshot forward and they place Dembe and Luli in custody and explain they are placing Red in protective custody. Spader as ever is exceptional, quickly realising the FBI have been duped and that the real attack on him will take place imminently with all in extreme danger Ressler is transporting him to the Box when the black ops site comes under attack. The pace of this episode is excellent, and for once the main focus is not Red and Liz,rather it is Red's history catching up with him. Anslo is an old adversary seeking revenge and we witness a bond happening between Red and Ressler as he tries to save his life, all the while trapped. Trapped yet protected by the prison Box, Anslo tries to force Cooper to give him the code, refusing Anslo first executes Luli in front of Red and the following scenes leaves the audience in shock. Dembe is up next and Red begs for his life willing to give his own. Fantastic acting; emotional, raw, harrowing, well done to all!
