This is the best thing to come out of the DC multiverse so far. It's hilarious and better than the Suicide Squad counterpart. We need more of this and less Zach Schneider piles of poop.

Vigilante/Peacemaker were hilarious together and this will help anyone having withdrawals from waiting on the new The Boys season.… Expand

Not all the jokes might've hit right for me, with some being used to undercut otherwise good dramatic moments. But otherwise?

This was an amazing series, I loved the characters and the weird twists and turns the stories took. And, of course, the music. But you can almost always count on a James Gunn movie or series to have a great soundtrack. I'm glad his version of the Suicide Squad is getting more love and will look forward to both more of it and of Peacemaker. (Though if they are ending it after one season, I'd be satisfied with that as well.)… Expand

Give James Gunn carte blanche and much like Guardians and The Suicide Squad, he gives us characters we care about, over the top action, great dialogue, but most of all, fun. John Cena has slowly become a great comedy presence, beginning with Trainwreck through to now (one could argue his wrestling persona is a total goof, and I wouldn't disagree). He has a face that looks like it was chiseled from granite with a brow that looks like a clenched fist. But when he lightens up, he has the face of an awe inspired child. And that definitely helps since Peacemaker is a chauvinistic, somewhat racist dolt. He is trying to be better, though, taking baby steps along the way. You see it in his reaction to his father's rants (played by Robert Patrick as an impermeable wall of hatred). He can't help he was raised by such a man, whom he is still trying to get his respect. And it's in those moments of inspection and self doubt that makes us love the character even more. Danielle Brooks (so good, as she was in Orange Is The New Black) is the team member that is the closest to being the audience surrogate, and her getting to know Peacemaker helps humanize him and the show. And the dialogue. From describing why Peacemaker doesn't care for Aquaman, to the pronunciation of the Berenstien Bears, and what the f are they putting in Cheetos...all are Golden Gunn. Enjoy.… Expand

Peacemaker felt like a spiritual sequel to Gunns 2010's super with its akward band of borderline psychotic street 'heroes'. The cast is fantastic and there's just the right amount of Dc influence to give it a foot in the door for it to wedgePeacemaker felt like a spiritual sequel to Gunns 2010's super with its akward band of borderline psychotic street 'heroes'. The cast is fantastic and there's just the right amount of Dc influence to give it a foot in the door for it to wedge itself into the canon. Most scenes are played for laughs and while this certainly worked (i was often chuckling throughout) i did feel the more serious sequences could never quite have any impact after scenes of purile humour have just taken place. Pacing is good and the action is top tier. In such an over saturated genre its hard to do it well and Gunn pulled it off here. A great binge watch.… Expand

Love this show. James Gunn and the entire crew did a phenomenal job. The cast was great, John Cena standing out as the lead. Some jokes missed the mark, but other than that the negatives were few and far between.

Everything from the intro onward is weird, random and fun the entire time. I wasn't a huge fan of the suicide squad movie, I thought it was OK at best, so this show completely surpassed my expectations.

Raunchy, absurd and completely ridiculous, this is everything that Peacemaker should be.

Another win for the DCEU and you get the feeling that the franchise has officially figured it out.

But if you're willing to put up with (or even like) the raunchy, gross humor, you'll find that Peacemaker is truly something special. The characters in this show are well developed by the end, and you find yourself rooting for the group by the time of their final episode! The pacing isn't bad at all (with the first episode being a possible exception) and the story manages to stay coherent without fully being on track or derailed by side plots. The action is amazing, and the music you'll hear is amazing, but with Gunn, that's a given.… Expand

This pitch perfect superhero show is the ideal blend of cartoon superheroes, adult angst and real world consequences. The humor slays harder than the action and the emotional beats all land surprisingly well. Also, Eagley.

This series jumps in while he's still recovering from the injuries in that movie. When he finally gets home, he ends up being "convinced" to ally himself with a new group whose mission is to eliminate Project Butterfly. James Gunn, who wrote/directed both Gardians of the Galaxy films, plus The Suicide Squad, is back at the helm and there are hints of his irreverent, wacko style. So far, it's not as wildly "out there" as the movies, but there are sassy moments, brazen fights and flawed heroes. Cena's comic abilities help. The newest visit it the DC Comics Universe doesn’t start out as raunchy or silly, but by the 3rd episode it's starting to gain that fun momentum.… Expand

"Peacemaker" (S01, 8 eps, 40+ mins, HBOMax) was a really interesting action/comedy series in its first season. There is sooo much to write about but I'm not paid as a pro so you'll just get the short version.

There is sooo much to write about but I'm not paid as a pro so you'll just get the short version. James Gunn of Guardians of the Galaxy and Suicide Squad fame, writes/directs, so it's going to be some kind of great. It's wacky, zany, over the top in many ways, and star John Cena embraces the weird and his character gets pilloried alot and I think that's a proxy for taking darts personally, too. I think he knows he's not a real actor yet and in this vehicle we're all right with that. I hope you like '80s hair metal because that's the soundtrack throughout. His crew is definitely the "B" team but they're kind of adorable with "Vigilante" coming really close to "Deadpool" territory. And "Eagly". How do you go wrong with a full size American Bald Eagle as your BFF?! I'll be there for its sophomore season.… Expand
