Good, villain characterization would have made the movie even better.
The movie with its 2 parallel stories was engaging. However, the second half including the villains became caricatures after a point of time.

I did not get why the mothers were killed or kept preserved in liquid nitrogen instead of being sent out into the world. Why weren't so many women reported missing if they never got out of the facility. Preserving so many bodies and foetuses requires a tremendous amount of liquid nitrogen.

The women need not have been kept in a prison like facility and been sent back out into the world believing that their child was adopted. That would have been less problematic.

I am not sure why the main female villain did not use contraceptives even if her husband refused to.

Samantha looks too made up in all scenes involving fighting and in the facility which would not be typical for a person from her economic background.

A domestic abuse suspense drama
A great suspense drama about domestic abuse with excellent cast and acting. I have read some criticism about how the last third was made unrealistic with the involvement of a criminal but I felt the story flowed and it was enjoyable.

An excellent slow burn drama suspense
A slow paced suspense thriller. I liked the simplicity and the realistic portrayal of the household and their daily life. Acting by everybody was great. I was stunned by the ending but overall the movie unraveled beautifully.

Funny & watchable
The movie was funny for the most part. The last quarter of the movie was okay. Satya Raj's acting was great.

I liked the message from yogi babu's character which reminded us to be sensitive about other's feelings instead of making fun of them.

I found the kid annoying and did not understand how his behaviour was tolerated instead of being nipped in the bud - peeing on people, being over dramatic demanding phones etc.

I did not like the justification given for the female lead flirting with several people though she had a serious boyfriend. Same for the male lead.

Interesting Crime Drama
An interesting crime drama. The scene with the maid/agent Tina was awesome and unexpected. The scenes with kid towards the end were a little unnecessary. The kid should have been at the airport before the showdown. Great action scenes.

A (mostly) light hearted historical K drama
A historical K drama with a mix of politics, comedy, drama and romance. Not totally historically accurate, though it is fun to watch. I watched most of the episodes on 1.5X speed and did not feel much of a difference.

A great police drama
Another interesting police drama which deals with murder, corruption, journalism and police work with good acting.

Season 2 is well paced and has the right mix of comedy and crime. There were small situations which seemed a little unrealistic but overall, it was great with excellent chemistry between the actors.

Not another GoT
The CGI is great and the production quality is good. Let us see how the plot develops. I have watched only 2 episodes so far.

This is no GoT. I did not enjoy the time jumps and I felt that this season did not show enough character development. The viewer is simply shocked and given facts about characters over time.

Secondly, I found the language amusing - sometimes, they use older English, sometimes, they sound like modern teenagers.

The main redeeming fact is the CGI and dragons.

Okay
This movie was hyped a fair bit as it has a strong female character and diversity. However, I found the characters arcs flat and pacing was not good.The actors were unconvincing as Native Americans from 1718-1720 as their expressions and the way they talked seemed more like modern teens. I really liked the dog in this movie.

Drama with incredible twists & turns
I have completed season 1 and 2

An addictive story of power, revenge and deals with a lot of topics - competition, bullying, rich and poor kids, corruption. A lot of twists to keep one baited.

Season 2 wrapped up season 1 nicely and I wish they had stopped here. The last scene in season 2 was unnecessary and was clearly to lead into season 3
