    C’est une jeune (mais mignonne) grognasse qui devient nonne guerrière à l‘insu de son plein gré… Mais il s’agit en fait et surtout d’une série aussi conne que Bouffie contre les vampires d’opérette. D’autant plus conne et plus nulle (la série) qu’il s’agit -aussi et avant tout- d’une production Netflisque et comme de coutume, c’est (encore) une série de merde !

    Tous les poncifs sont de sortie, on se croirait dans Twilight la série avec des cocottes très bêtes qui partent chasser les démons… enfin, du moins, sur le papier, car je n’ai pas pu finir le premier épisode tellement c’est con, cette série de merde ! en outre, c’est d’une lenteur qui se répand en bavardages futiles à la moindre occasion…

    On sent ses amas de neurones fondre en direct, agressés par tant de nullité, de naïveté et de stupidité : oui, c’est comme Twilight et c’est pour les ados, surtout pour les filles en fait : c’est ultra neuneu et ultra con à la fois ! vous allez adorez, les bécasses !    … Expand

    This show is so painfully slow I could even finish it. Made it halfway through episode 4 and just gave up. It could be cool if it wasn't so slow.

    Holy sh!t the girl that plays AVA the main character is a HORRIBLE actress. 98% of the acting in this entire show is some of the worst I’ve ever seen on screen. My standards are usually pretty low as long as there is some good action and the cinematography is good but wow is the acting terrible! This is on par with iron fist on Netflix.

    I like a a reluctant hero as much as the next person. Meaning, I don't. Nobody does. In a world where everyone dreams of having superpowers, you cannot make a relatable character that so diligently turns away from becoming a superhero.

    And here the protagonist does it for half the season.

    And here the protagonist does it for half the season.

    The writers try to compensate this lack of rhythm by creating a series of mystery boxes in the hopes one or two can create enough curiosity-induced following in order to try to fight against the crystal clear fact that this series is yet another Netflix-trademark disposable content.

    3 points awarded for some good choreography and Alba Baptista's performance. Girl got chops. Hopefully her agent can find her some better work next time.    … Expand

    I started watching this when I caught a clip of it somewhere on the internet and it really piqued my interest. However, as the episodes went on, it fails to deliver any substance to the development of the story or the main character. It spent 6 long episodes to for the main character to come around to and all it took was the typical 'someone got injured because of me' troupe.

    Inspired by Manga novels, this 10-episode series meanders a lot while offering a "Stranger Things"-type vibe, serving as a weird diversion that, on the road to goodness, doesn't even get halfway there.

    A lot hangs on Baptista, who must find enough naivety that we can believe in her transition to warrior hero, but not so much that we can’t believe in her as a hedonistic 19-year-old keen to do pills and get laid. On the evidence of the first episode, she strikes a reasonable balance, and despite some flat dialogue and a predictable plot there is an agreeable energy to Warrior Nun.

    The script can sometimes lean too much on mythological and religious exposition as the nuns explain their mission to Ava, but the actors have such good chemistry that their various pairings—Mary and Ava, Ava and Beatrice, Mary and Lilith—work, and the smartly choreographed fight scenes are well-placed.
