    It is either warmly eccentric or hysterically crazy, perfect entertainment or a horrifying attempt to parlay the pandemic into a commercially palatable mashup. It is undoubtedly aimed at a younger-than-full-adult audience; my 10-year-old is entranced. I am, too, although I can’t yet work out why.

If you can watch it without shouting at the tv "what!? What!? How!? That makes no sense!? Are you serious!?" Then you are dumb too. Sorry but it's true and you know it or you would if you weren't so dumb.

    They took an excellent graphic novel and disneyfied it to the point of abstraction. It's not an adult show and it's way too violent for children so who is it for. I wanted to love it and it has some nice moments but it's so dumb dumb dumb. Also its offensive to survivors of the pandemic in the way they chose to portray the virus as it was filmed during the worst of the pandemic. The cgi is terrible which makes no sense in 2021 for Netflix and the music is heavy handed and lazy to force emotions. Overall a low budget poorly written missed opportunity which isn't for anyone except the dumb and those that wish they were dumb so they too could enjoy it as much as everyone else.    … Full Review »

I loved the comic it was a dark survival story. Then these idiotic writers decide to throw all the realism in the wind by adding some little girls playing virtual reality games and getting great a fightin? Like what the hell? How would they even have power to waste on virtual reality and let me tell you that does not make you a warrior. Anyway these girls then of course defeat grown men with ease. The men have training and machine guns on their side but hey what can you do when these little girls have knives and virtual reality experience. They ruined another comic good job idiots.… Full Review »

    Unfortunately, this show also reminds me how much I dislike a lot of child actors, he just immediately got on my nerves and never stopped, although I'm sure at least a good portion of that is down to the character to be fair to him.

    Either way, by no means a must watch    … Full Review »
