    I loved the video game and I expected this show since the day it was announced and now I admit that I really enjoyed it. It's sweet and lovable and fun and great reminiscence of 30's Hollywood cartoons.

    It is an amazing show based on an amazing game. The show is quite the experience and had me grinning and smiling ear to ear. The characters are all great and put on a great effort for each scene and episode they're in. The humor is nailed to a great point and reminds me of some characters like Squidward, Spongebob & Patrick from Spongebob from seasons 1-3 which as we all know is held toIt is an amazing show based on an amazing game.

    The animation is great, it's consistently entertaining, and it does a good capturing the general vibe of the video game it's based on.

    The thing is, this same formula is done much better by The Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse, so The Cuphead Show! can't help but feel a little tame in comparison.

    At least it's good to have a video game adaptation that doesn't annoy or frustrate me.

    Not the most original show in the world, but what it sets out to do it does VERY WELL. You'd be hard-pressed to find a recent show that's as reverent to the anarchic, cinematic spirit of 1930s cartoons (and to an extent, its culture as well) than this. My only real complaint so far is the somewhat predictable plotting, but I'm pretty sure they'll be able to buff that out sometime duringNot the most original show in the world, but what it sets out to do it does VERY WELL.

    The animation is very bad and looks like GARBAGE, even the game version is not very good because the graphics look like animation made in the 1940s, but well... this movie is only suitable for toddlers under 1 year and not for adults

    This show is definitely a pass: less jokes, bad quality, too boring and etc. I would prefer the uncharted movie than this

    I've never played the game and never understood what was great about it.
    The series is beautifully drawn, but otherwise only mediocre.
    No obligation to see it.

    Totally made for its time, The Cuphead Show is a good new formula that doesn't fall like another series from the 30's.

    Great show for the great game. Each episode has only something like 15 minutes, so it's easy to see it at once

    It's got a lot of passion. It looks quite a bit like 1940s animation which is what the show's goal was. It's got some humor. Problem is that's all it does. If you like Cuphead, this show is for you but prepare to be a little disappointed. It's impressive but I was expecting a little more.

    Classic and charming!!!
    The first thing you’ll notice about this show is that the designing and sketching are for 1930s but It has the atmosphere of today's animations

    I originally gave up after the first episode but recently went back to complete it. It did get better after the first episode. The first season of this show is enjoyable but just okay.

    It is at once a giddy genre exercise and something that your kids would happily watch. For the most part, that is.

    The Cuphead Show! has created something more than the sum of its parts. It continues Netflix’s trend of superb video game adaptations by creating an animated world so intricate and alive that it will make any animation fan swoon while remaining fun and relatable for any age. Just put on an episode and try not to smile.

    The rubber hose animation of the ‘30s is a striking and novel skin to stretch over a traditional run-and-gun video game, but as a series of bite-sized stories, The Cuphead Show can’t help but come up short.
