    Still as beautiful, as suspenseful and as tragic as it has always been, amazing first 3 episodes. I can't wait for what's to come

    É a continuação árdua de uma saga agora de vingança, perdas e reviravoltas. Um passo decisivo e fortemente competente no arco de superação da protagonista.

    Season 4 doesn't "go around in circles." It's more a matter of June probably thinking to herself, "Just when I tought I was out...deyyyy pull me back in." The slow burn in the first four episodes doesn't bother me; I'm always up for some grim Extreme Old Testament vs. kick-ass June. The show and this season are still Prestige TV ranking with other current ones such as Better Call Saul,Season 4 doesn't "go around in circles."

    Continuously visually stunning and provoking it finally brings us near a solid conclusion. The story is offering answer a season late(that does dull the impact)but still satisfies. Tables are turning and no one is safe if the next season is it's last the greatness of it's first season is very possible.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. God, I wanted to give 10 only for part 3, but the first two parts were very ordinary and clichéd and completely ridiculous.
    I hope the next episodes are much better and more realistic and cover the weaknesses of the first two episodes
    Without episode 3, I would have lost my hope, but after watching this episode, I realized how great this series can be and it is a pity that it is ruined.

    Still a solid series, but as we move into season 4 it lacks the gut punching impact the previous seasons offered.
    Probably has one more season left to play.

    We already know that life for women in Gilead is abhorrent, and it feels like the more interesting story now lies outside the bounds of this hellhole.

    There are some mind-blowing plot developments to come: some of them quite soul crushing, while some of them are very moving, and others truly suspenseful and thrilling.

    Isn't it nice to see the women giving the men their own medicine? Blessed day. And quite telling when murder and castration come as sunny relief.
