Then with season 2, the show tries to become mainstream. It tries to play on gray morals and toxic relationships so much that it breaks down. It breaks down into a intelligence insulting, nonsensical character trait changes while amping down the action to basically them just punching each other...

All in all season 1: 8/10
Rest: 4/10

And all of that whole 4 comes from the fact that Homelander never actually breaks character and behaves what he was originally portrayed as. He only develops while Mr. Butcher and co along with rest of 7 (except Starlight) simply f.ing evolves and warps into completely different and inconsistent characters throughout season 2 and 3.… Expand

Superhero movies are buzzing right now, but they're mostly just 50 year old stories set in a slightly more modern era. This is a very different take, much more amusing, and how it weaves in the reality as we know it now is quite brilliant. It's very humorous at times, although also a bit disgusting every now and then. Also, I could really do without the nude/sex/softcore porn stuff. And the irony of a big evil megacorp being at the centre of a show on Amazon Prime shouldn't be lost on anyone.… Expand

It was perfect. Perfect. Everything, down to the last minute details. Alright alright, the first season was a lot better than the latter two, but man I've never enjoyed anything as much as it. Think of it this way, I got the Amazon Prime Video free trial just to watch it, it lasts a week, and I finished it in ... I'll let you guess, a week. The show is 24 hours long give or take, so about a seventh of my time during the last week was spent watching this show. And god damn I did not regret a single second of it. My only problem with it is that nothing never really seems to get resolved. I get that Homelander is a **** all great ass villain but I'd love to get another villain, maybe sometime in the future. We'll see, but the series was great you should go watch it. Don't watch it for a perfect story, it's not it, watch it for the moments, for the action, for the ... fine .. story. Haven't enjoyed anything just this much in years.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It starts off quite strong. The basic premise being a dark underbelly of the fake media of super heroes. It has some good acting, interesting script and random comic book style fight scenes. It's entertaining and has massive amounts of potential. However like most current times series and films, it is socially scripted regardless of how socially unscripted its premise is... we are so unscripted that superheroes and their world is dark and ruck and all the norms are sheep for the killing or using. However we are totally scripted in that everything is so sickly dark, Christianity is bubblegum pop sickness, everyone sexually weird or corrupt or broken by guilt EXCEPT the people who are gay or lesbian in which case they are oppressed and they need to be liberated by evil conservative Christian history which needs to be ridiculed and turned into idol worshipping mad people. This show, once again, makes it clear that regardless of the point of the show, if you don't love everything about gays and woke narrative, you're a disgusting, ducked up evil turd that needs to never have an opinion or be allowed to breathe. It is desperate to force peoples thinking down that narrative that it makes it oppressive from season one. I long for the day when shows stop being oppressive with narrative and forcing subliminal putrage on something simple like waking past a post that says marriage is 1 man and 1 woman for life. It's actually a very normal and reasonable opinion about marriage. It's not shocking or weird. So, why make it seem evil and out of left field. For that matter, why even bring it up in this show at all? Why once again do we have to do fake Christian worship scenes which do nothing but take the piss out of a global religion? It's the same stuff in every show. It's oppressive, is bullish and it's incorrect. You're using fiction to rewrite people's brains and it's corrupt.… Expand

The first feature film about mutants was "X-Men" directed in 2000 by Bryan Singer: each character had a complex and deep personality and, from the scene of Wolverine in the Statue of Liberty onwards, the memory of the movie still excites me. What happened in these 2 decades? Superheroes have been desecrated, vulgarized, bastardized, drowned in the bad taste of the extremization of their own problems, lìmits or defects. "Deadpool", "The Suicide Squad" and now this TV series. The trend has been decided and there is no going back: too bad, since the comic book is excellent both in the narrative plot and in the graphic rendering and the audiovisual transposition preserves these qualities, but also the derisive and scurrilous contamination with a "Breaking Bad" 2.0.
Ps: or the Nirvana T-shirt or that of AC/DC, the incompatibility is absolute.… Expand

Although one might argue that the things were tuned up a bit too far here, making it equally unrealistic. While the premise is interesting, the stories that are surrounding it are not so much. I've been wondering numerous times throughout the season "just where is this going?" And more often than not, I didn't get my answer by the season's end. I've also been wondering why characters took some eyebrow-raising decisions, similarly I didn't get my answer by the end. The biggest strength of this TV series are actors - they got their roles extremely well, particularly Antony Starr. Nevertheless, it is not enough for me to continue watching a potentially dragged out plot in the second season just to be left with a feeling of emptiness again… Expand

Evidemment, la série suit son propre chemin, sa propre interprétation de cette drôle d’histoire de super tarés, ce qui n’est pas forcément plus mal, car rien n’est plus barbant qu’un copié-collé trop servile… Cependant, la révélation de la fin de cette première saison saborde ce pourquoi le gars Butcher se bat et embarque la suite de la série dans une impasse…

La seconde saison, loin de capitaliser ou de s’améliorer, s’égare malheureusement à fond dans le me too, le SJW de merde (pléonasme) ainsi que dans les atermoiements des bisounours du vivre ensemble inclusif alors que de toute façon, on voit bien que cette série pousse à fond tous ses agendas de diversité, des minorités et comme dit plus haut de justice sociale revendicatrice et pleurnicharde.

Comme dans le comics, le personnage principal est une tête à claques et un ravi de la crèche très énervant mais inversement, le Protecteur se révèle ici encore plus intéressant que dans la Bd ; il faut dire que l’acteur qui l’incarne, Antony Starr, est particulièrement subtil et brillant dans le rôle du super psychopathe ! Butcher est pour sa part bien campé par un Karl Urban barbu et assez charismatique pour convaincre.

Les moyens et les effets spéciaux sont bel et bien là en tout cas et tout à fait satisfaisants mais l’action (souvent très brutale) reste bien trop rare, hélas. La série se perd de plus en plus en parlotes inutiles et chiantes, ce qui fait qu’on décroche de plus en plus souvent. Las, on arrête les frais à mi-saison (de la seconde) certainement pas désireux de poursuivre plus avant ce gâchis de série.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The show is barely based off the comic at all, it's all just doom and gloom depressing everything is bad waaaah. Lazy, and the heros being bad was a missed opportunity for a plot twist, they just revealed it all in the first episode. Also like half the characters are gender/race swapped which just pisses on the comics even more for stupid diversity. And they really couldn't make at least 5 of the characters likable? Only likable ones are the French guy, Milk guy, Homelander for his great acting, and sort of the Deep since he just turns into a joke character. But the fact he's a joke character is also a missed opportunity. And I should have took the red flag as soon as a saw it but the defilement of Christianity is also disgusting in episode 5… Expand

A few years back I was starting to gain some interest in superheroes. I had just begun to watch Marvel and DC movies. Then one of my friends suggested me aboutThe Boys back when season 1 had just begun. I wasn't very much interested in inA few years back I was starting to gain some interest in superheroes. I had just begun to watch Marvel and DC movies. Then one of my friends suggested me aboutThe Boys back when season 1 had just begun. I wasn't very much interested in in Amazon Prime so I thought should give it a try when I get time to do so. And when I got the subscription this was the very first thing I saw.

The Boys is set in a dystopian society where superheroes a something of a cultural identity. Unlike Watchmen where people were shown to have lost their interest and superheroes because of their existence in the real world, people in The Boys absolutely adore the superheroes. They watch the movies, buy their toys, read their books, and do everything with way more passion than we do for superheroes. Homelander is given the same reputation as Superman, and is worshipped like a demigod. The truth, however, is completely different.

Nowadays it has become a trend to show that superheroes are flawed people. They also have many wrong habits and tend to make mistakes. But this show takes it on a completely different level. Superheroes are not interested in in doing their job of serving humanity at all. Rather they are owned by corporations like Vought, who use them for marketing purposes and for selling the dream of becoming a superhero by injecting children with Compound V as kids. And the gullible people do not question this as it has become something of a taboo to speak against these gods who live among us. The only people who dare to speak against them are The Boys, a team of misfits led by Billy Butcher. In the beginning of the show they are able to take out Translucent and use his dead body to taunt Homelander.

Starlight is is one of the members of the seven who actually wants to serve humanity but is tried to be bullied into submission by The Deep, A-Train and Homelander. I really like how all of them get their comeuppance, do I feel a little bad for The Deep. In season 2 he was shown to have been bullied as a kid and that is word changed his personality. This is something which clearly states how false Vought's propaganda about having the happy life of being a superhero is. Homelander is also shown to hate faking his origin story just for the entertainment of the people. A-Train was also a bad guy but helps out in season 2 and can also be excused for being a drug addict.

Season 2 introduced Stormfront, and I really like how they showed her to be the forward thinking member of the The Seven and ultimately her true personality was slowly revealed. Finally she also got what she deserved and everything went back to normal. I am really hoping that season 3 also turns out to be as good as the other two and the series doesn't drag on for no reason other than cash grabbing, because in that case they would just become what they are fighting against.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The first season is written by a genius. The ambiguous relationship between two of the evil characters is incredibly nuanced and doesn't cease to amaze.
Sadly, that's the only positive thing about the show. Don't get me wrong: if you are woke, it will be a full 10 for you.
This is a show about strong women punishing worthless, stupid, cowardly men or Trump follower caricatures.
Men are privileged worthless pricks, as exemplified by The Deep and Homelander, among others. No redemption for The Deep: being male he has no good qualities whatsoever, he's a complete tool, he goes from one defeat to the next and is supposedly a comic relief. Might even work, if he were not so politically charged, with no subtlety at all. Tghe spirit of the time, I guess.
Hughie, one of the main characters, is possibly the only "good" white male in the show. He's also completely castrated: an annoying, gutless nobody that would never get a bombshell like Starlight, in one thousand years. He's a little feminist lapdog, he even chastises Butcher for using c*nt as an insult, and Lamplighter for watching porn and having sex with eager young women ("Not cool, dude!"). Really, I wanted him to die so badly along the show - but of course, being such a doormat, he's the only male model that's acceptable to the woke creators, and so he is actually rewarded.
Women are strong and always win, unless they are right-leaning or christian. They are the ones that save the day at the end of the show, when men have failed miserably on all fronts (and in case you missed it, Frenchie remarks it openly). The very last two scenes are the ultimate, sordid humiliation for Homelander, and the apotheosis for the super congresswoman, a powerful heroine who triumphs on all counts (together with colonel Mallory, Maeve, Elena, Starlight and probably more females I can't recall right now) and deals lethal justice to men. Did you miss the obvious? There is not ONE good male superhero, while female superheroes are either good or can at least redeem themselves, unless they are on the wrong end of the political spectrum.
Even Butcher's wife reminds him that she was the better shot years ago, just to drive home the point that women are better at EVERYHTING.
There are so many examples of toxic fathers seeded along the show! Hughie's father is a worthless moron without a spine, Frenchie's father stole him from his mother and would burn him with cigarettes daily. Mesmer is a toxic father who doesn't give a **** about his daughter. Homelander reminds Maeve of a man she killed, who had shot his wife and had a gun at the head of his daughter. Maeve's father betrayed her trust giving her Compund V, just like Deep's (also Starlight's mother, but guess what: she's the only one of the three who's forgiven in the end).
Most of all, Butcher's father is the absolute worst because he shows "toxic masculinity", and therefore Butcher has inherited his curse, becoming another toxic male. Not to mention Homelander who is just as bad an influence. It's continuously implied that the best way to raise a child is with his mother and away from his father, because mothers are good and would sacrifice anything for their children. In case you don't get the message, they openly state that a child raised without his mother becomes a monster. Also, male children should be emasculated to remove toxicity from them, and punished if they show any hint of non-submissive personality (Homelander's son and his "hate jar"). The only case in which it's okay to apply extreme, capital violence, is against non-woke people. In that case, it's completely justified, delightful and even funny.
I hope this woke frenzy runs dry soon and some movie or TV series that isn't pure propaganda against white men eventually surfaces. For now, the outlook is pretty grim.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I really like Karl Urban, when he is not in crappy movies like Hangman. And I also greatly enjoyed "You're the worst", so decided to pick up The Boys after Aya Cash joined the crew, because superheroes arent really my thing and Urban alone wasn't enough to convince me.

Overall its really good. I enjoyed the humor, action and CGI. Homelander is a very good antagonist and Butcher is a great antihero character. I liked secondary characters as well. Main couple though is... ok I guess, not a big fan. I give this an 8 for 2 reasons - 1. Giant plotholes, especially concerning security at Vought and the fact that in superhero world everyone up to god himself can be blackmailed by a phone video. I get it, it's 2020, technology, pen/phone/tweet is mightier than a sword blablabla, but its getting kind of ridiculous. Everyone and their mother is being either blackmailed by videos or gets in trouble because of them - Gecko, Starlight, Homelander, Butcher etc etc. Also, CCTV is either non-existent in this universe or is completely ignored by everyone and only utilized only when plot requires it. 2. Aya Cash's character, her vaguely explained and mary-sue like character (why Edgar brought her, knowing about her past? why didnt he remove her as soon as she started anti-Vought campaign? what happened after she disappeared in 1979 and until she reappeared 40 years later? Why was she put in charge of Sage Cove) and her dive into politics closer to the end of season 2. I get it, politics are a part of everyday life, but the message can be more subtle, I want to watch a tv series about superheroes, not talk show about Trump and AOC.

Also I was mildly put off by the actor who plays Frenchie. My sister is married to a Frenchman, and even my very basic French tells me that he is not a French guy, and that influences my immersion. The actor himself is doing a great job though.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Uma das grandes surpresas dos últimos anos, The Boys é uma série de televisão adaptada de quadrinhos obscuros. Mais uma obra audiovisual que lança HQs desconhecidas ao estrelado e, de forma devida. A importância de sua mensagem é grandiosa para os tempos atuais em que super-heróis perderam seu principal conceito com as pessoas - serem mais do que apenas produtos - e aos meios de comunicação, de como meras imagens bonitas guardam um lado sórdido por trás. Algo como os primeiros longas de reality show nos mostravam. Um enorme choque ao nos revelar o lado heroico logo de cara, em sua primeira cena, e - logo depois - a realidade dos fatos que impacta. Grande violência gráfica mas tudo tem um motivo pra acontecer. Talvez, a maior falta seja ver heróis em mais situações realmente heroica para criar maior dualidade.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm writing this review as someone who read the negative reviews on Watchmen and saw the suggestions to watch this show. After watching the entire 1st season i'm a bit disappointed. Maybe because i expected a "better version" of the watchmen when in actuality this is a whole other show about an entirely different world (that for some reason still references this world without actually acknowledging it). A lot of reviews claimed this show to be unpolitical Even though the show heavily relies of War Profiteering and "Me Too" mockery to push the story. I've never seen a show with so much damn Sexual Assault gawd damn even the rapist get raped. The pay offs for the individual characters are just not there with an ending that just sets you up to begin the next season in WTF mode. So yeah the show is " Apolitical if you actually mean contains no dialog about Racial awareness or Class Disparities (which are more or less a larger part of the watchmen Tv show storyline). I wish people wouldn't compare shows in this way cause my veiw of this show was really trying to see how they were at all similar instead of seeing it for its actual self. This is and ALRIGHT show about a Justice League who act as the face for a corrupt Corporation . The Main Character is mad and gets dragged along by some bubbly **** who cant be real with himself or those around him. Everybody drags everybody down. The end.

Edit: I've now watched season 2 of this show and boy howdy was my first take on this one spot on. now I see tons of people who loved the show in the beginning for being quote unquote apolitical now hating the show simply because one of the main characters is explicitly racist. news flash people in real life sometimes pretend that they're not racist when in private they take every opportunity to exhibit just that type of behavior. And when you give people power they exercise power on a bias. This show is satire but it holds the mirror to society while being satire. I still hate the majority of these characters I still hate the majority of these developments but I'll be damned if these character representations are not based in reality. Some folks are mad about the writing of this show saying it's lazy. But it's supposed to be based in our reality so why wouldn't things from our reality be in their reality every aspect of what's going on in that show I've seen in reality and if you haven't then perhaps you need to spend some time outside of the books and in the real world.… Expand

Every character is really complex and makes me wanna know more about them every time they are on the screen. Plus, there are a lot of storylines that advance during every episode and this gives the impression that the episodes are way longer than they really are and it never gets boring.

Not surprising considering the source material, but this could've easily gone horrible wrong. Thankfully, the show runners deliver on the premise.

Season 2 is just as good if not better than the first, raising the stakes, the action and the emotional connection with the characters. Props to Antony Starr who is phenomenal. He eats up every scene with a genuinely eerie, terrifying sense.… Expand

It has been one of the best superheroes shows ever produced. If you are soft and get offended then I highly recommend you don't watch this show at all. The first season of The Boys is excellent and I think it's flawless besides the unnecessary sex scenes that occur. The show is dark and funny while having fantastic dialogue to carry the show forward. The fight scenes are actually pretty good and better than all the CW shows but below the action tier of the MCU/DC movies. Absolutely diabolical with the first season being a 9.9/10 . The second season is where it kind of drops as it isn't as good as the first season but the season finale was so good that it deserves an Emmy for that episode alone. The first 5 episodes feel stiff and stretched out at times with no improvement with the characters occurring. Then the last three is the final run where it all comes down to the clock of saving each other and shows the fall of a powerful organization in a realistic way with the most well-done shocks. The character development is done properly at the end of the season in a well good way besides Huighe. I feel like the show kind of walks away from him on the time especially since he was the main character in season 1. Season two is overall of 8.7/10. Last regards are Antony Starr deserves an award for his performance as Hoemlander as he kills it in both seasons as you don't know when the switch with the flip with the character not knowing his next move in a unique way of making it normal. Overall a great show and my score are 9.3/10. Can't wait to see where they go for season 3.… Expand

I like the show, but like so many shows in our current environment, they go overboard on shock value. It's very gritty. Horrible language, graphic violence, and too much graphic sex. Rating of TV18+, is well deserved. NOT NECESSARY forI like the show, but like so many shows in our current environment, they go overboard on shock value. It's very gritty.

Great show for anyone to check out so long as you aren't squeamish toward a strong subject matter. Extremely relevant to the current state of our world. Highly recommend!

Themes of capitalism, corporatism, power, greed, and fame are explored. Great performance from the actors across the board. All of these elements are tied together with well-written and interesting story.

Looking forward to season two.… Expand

Forget the ethics the quest for justice the hearts of gold filled with good intentions : The superheroes of The Boys went far from what the public got used to seeing in the Marvel and DC movies. May the second season come.

I recommend this series not only to fans of the genre, but also in general to all fans of cinema and TV series. Beautiful picture pleases the eye, gorgeous, chic soundtrack caresses the ear, the speaker is, the story keeps in suspense.

Definately an interesting show. Really shows that absolute power corrupts absolutely. Entertaining good fun without a lot of SJWs, though it seems to be creeping in in the later episodes. Overall still great.
