Jul 30, 2023This is better than most of the rubbish considered "modern entertainment". Give it a chance. Btw, Sweet Tooth, A+++

Jul 28, 2023I remember playing this on the PS1, I think the last PS I had (might have gotten a 2), and loving it. It was simple, arcade fun. The show embraces that spirit. Reminds me of other post-apocalyptic shows, but with more humor. Anthony Mackie is perfectly cast. I'm having fun with it and they releases all the episodes as it should be.

Jul 30, 2023No, it's not the most faithful adaptation of Twisted Metal and no, it's not wall-to-wall cart combat. But it's still a really fun show.
-
Jul 28, 2023Still better than anything to come out to Netflix this year. Peacock IMO has more content and better licensing than overrated, overpriced, self-indulgent Netflix. Twisted Metal, unlike anything on Netflix, is actually a fun and enjoyable viewing.

Jul 29, 2023Harold best character so far in the series with the clown sweet tooth and the looser of Outlaw.
-
Jul 28, 2023Overall I really liked it. It's funny and violent. It's not the story I was expecting but I am totally ok with that if Season 2 delivers.
-
Aug 1, 2023The pacing is just all off, and the show feels artificial and amateurish. I am however willing to give it a 7 because there are a ton of very well done scenes. There's no excuse for the messy direction, editing and writing though, especially at the start. But hey, what else is there? What other vehicle combat show is there competing with this one? None. So yeah it's fine I guess, I am entertained.

Aug 2, 2023the show is actually very good, it's funny, LOVED all the main and secondary characters. which is crazy because i always hate at least somebody. loved the backstories. i totally wasn't expecting that since the trailers looked awful. yes, the show is probably very cheap and it is campy but it actually works, since the whole world went insane. also, hell yeah ball pit. also, hell yeah faith no more.

Aug 2, 2023This is top tier television with a good bit of nostalgia. I can’t wait for season two

Jul 31, 2023Great show! It has the dark humor, great characters and overall feels like the games were back then. I’m looking forward for season 2.
-
Aug 2, 2023Will Arnett is excellent as the psychopathic clown killer, Sweet Tooth. I do hope there's a second season.

Aug 9, 2023I am a big fan of the original game from 90s, I was quite skeptical of this series given the terrible trailer but this series is fun as hell!
I watched the entire series in two sittings & now I want more! -
Aug 3, 2023This show surprised me, exceeded my expectations! I was expecting a really poor and weak production, but they managed to please me. Of course, they push the limits on some things, but, for me, that's expected from an adaptation of a game about cars destroying cars. I really enjoyed it and I hope they renew it for many seasons! I want to see Calypso!

Aug 14, 2023I expected this to be awful, but was pleasantly surprised by the dark humor, adding a story to a show about a game with no story, the over the top violence, and top tier acting. Sweet Tooth was portrayed perfectly!
-
Aug 25, 2023Is it Last of Us quality? No... but I was actually shocked at how well it was done and while the 1st and last episodes are easily the best episodes of this series and it's also helped by the infamous Sweet Tooth.
-
Aug 22, 2023They did an amazing job. All the easter eggs, cameos.... everything. Also a lot of today's shows don't follow the original content ( i.e Witcher, Disney Remakes ). So tons of respect to the makers of the series for showing the respect to the OG content. Can't wait for more easter eggs and cameos! Also maybe a new game finally, since now Twisted Metal is in the spotlight again!
-
Aug 29, 2023Marvelous! As a hardcore fan i'm so surprised! they make full season as introduction to characters and world! I really appreciate for such passion and love that they gave to my favorite game series!!

It all feels very brash and attention-seeking, like the TV equivalent of a lime-green hatchback doing late-night doughnuts in a supermarket car park. But, if you can tune in to Twisted Metal’s motormouth wavelength of childish exuberance, it is certainly a fun ride.
-
Twisted Metal the TV show is brought to the screen by the producers of the Deadpool movies starring Ryan Reynolds, and holds true to its pixelated predecessor’s manic qualities. .... Mackie and Beatriz have a matey chemistry and their characters’ cautious friendship gives the series its emotional core.
-
Its general mode of operating is to put in whatever seems cool and fun and silly and sick and leave out anything that does not meet those parameters. Yes to: guns, cars, sardonic needle drops, wisecracks, blood, sex, flash, grime, the sound of tires on pavement, shit that looks dope. No to: quietness, finicky world-building, thinking too hard about the limitations of the human body, complex motivations, depth, taking stuff too seriously, man.
