4/10

Sad story, some scenes a bit too strong for my taste, protagonist doesn't seem to excel in anything, characters aren't very special respectively I don't think that they evolved much during the season. Didn't like it.

**_Major_** spoiler ahead **_!!!_**

The action is good, as well as the abilities specialized by each team member. Not a big fan of the hero dying, but it is what it is. Doom & gloom hardly ever plays well in the States. I guess life is tough enough without entertainment leaving you feeling like "there's just not enough coffee." lol

You be the judge. Luck in your viewing, - Bob -

You've reached the end.
