This show had me at "let's kill nazis", but if I have to leave 75 characters I'll also add, Al Pacino is a gem.

Amazon's new series about 1970's Nazi hunters is a wild ride. "Hunters" has one of the best opening sequences out there and keeps the audience invested until the closing credits.

"Hunters" has one of the best opening sequences out there and keeps the audience invested until the closing credits. Al Pacino (as Myer Offerman) is great (as always). My favorite quote from him: "Living well is not the best revenge. Revenge is the best revenge." The supporting cast is also excellent. Standouts include killer nun Sister Harriet (Kate Mulvany) and married weapons experts Morty and Mindy (Saul Rubinek and Carol Kane)-. There has been some controversy around the show (especially the human chess scenes). Creator David Weir says he wrote this story as a homage to his own grandparents who survived the concentration camps. I too am confused about how real life tragedies should be handled when they're converted into entertainment. Do shows like "Inglorious Bastards" or "The Man In The High Castle" belittle the real life suffering of millions of people (or do they impress upon younger viewers the horrors of the past)? I'm not sure what the answer is. I do think we need to look at the show's genre though. "Hunters" is not meant to be a documentary. It's a drama with grindhouse elements (and some comedy thrown in). And grindhouse movies such as Quentin Tarantino's "Death Proof are completely over the top with gore and violence. All things considered, I still very much enjoyed "Hunters". In troubling times, this revenge fantasy is just what the doctor ordered.… Expand

Hunters starts brilliantly, slows significantly and then ramps up again just in time for a brilliant ending. Pacino is great and lifts the show, acting as a strong foundation for the other characters to build off. There are definitely someHunters starts brilliantly, slows significantly and then ramps up again just in time for a brilliant ending. Pacino is great and lifts the show, acting as a strong foundation for the other characters to build off. There are definitely some underdeveloped characters here and there though, however if the show gets renewed I'm hoping that changes. There is definitely a plot line or two that could be removed because things get a little bit messy and confusing for a moment mid-season and opening up a couple of arcs that I really didn't care to see get resolved. I'd have liked to have seen maybe an 8 episode series that is a bit more concise. For the most part the music and visuals are great and complimented by moments of 'Tarantino-esque' bloody violence and gore. Overall, Hunters is probably the best original show that Amazon has made and I'm looking forward to a second season that refines what is already here and really pushes it to it's full, history-book changing potential.… Expand

Hilarious, whacky humour. Some mind-blowing action sequences and stunts. Al Pacino wows.

This show was better than what I expected but I think it was too long for my taste. I believe 7 o 8 episodes would've been more concise but still was very entertaining and I liked to see Al Pacino in this role.

The season finale was crazy and sets up very interesting things but this of course if the show gets renew. I hope so.
Go watch it.… Expand
