What would happen if Superman were a sociopath and Flash a drug addict? The Amazon prime serie "The Boys" answer these questions.

in #movie5 years ago

Is it worth spending time watching TV shows? Currently streaming content services are in a battle. Since the appearance of Netflix, companies have started the race for supremacy. Amazon and Disney are the opponents. And it is precisely from a series of the Amazon Prime service that we will talk about today. Join me in this spoilerless review of the popular superhero series "The Boys"


Amazon Show/Comic - Source

Based on the comic created by Garth Ennis and cartoonist Darick Robertson. The boys tells the story of a world of corrupt superheroes. Imagine that Superman was taking advantage of his powers to do whatever he wanted and continue pretending to be the Hero everyone loves. Or the wonder woman, as a feminine symbol is a complete farce. And to put the icing on the cake, now visualize Aquaman being a rapist. That's what my friends are about, The Boys series.

To date Marvel had us accustomed to his superheroes, all colorful and friendly. They tried to give human problems to characters like Thor who we see fat in Endgame because of a depression problem. But the boys take that to the extreme. The heroes have real problems, face realities similar to those of their fellow citizens, but with the slight detail of them they have powers that make them “superior”.

A series full of sexual activity and violence that will undoubtedly make you debate your perception of “what would happen if superheroes were like this”… A first that caught my attention and made me even start reading the comic on which the series is based . Let me tell you that the comic is much more explicit.

The series has plenty of reasons to be classified as the most successful amazon streaming service. It has characters that easily win the affection or in this case, the contempt of the spectators. Each episode takes us deeper into the rotten world that we all know could happen in a reality like ours, but with "Super" people. The one who considers them Gods will not be missing and in the boys they are not afraid to show it to you. It is perhaps due to the crudeness of the situations that this series manages to captivate the public, it is well known that if something can happen and a show I show it, it will have acceptance.

The capitalization of fanaticism is, on the one hand, one of the axes that mark all the intrigues of the series, but there is also a socio-political perspective that does not evade criticism of the United States industrial-military complex. In just eight episodes, The Boys raises cynicism jaded of the superheroes turned into dummy of the mega-corporations and the perversion of these, for an economic eagerness.

One of the best options you can have to enjoy in a single day. Because at the end of the first episode you will want to know more and more about what happens in this rotten universe. You may want to read the comic. Everything will depend on how visceral your tastes are and if you don't mind staining the reputation of heroes.

I invite you then to discover for yourself what this series can offer that left me wanting more. Until the next steemians

Marvel had us accustomed to friendly heroes only if you watched the movies, cuz the Netflix series where dark :^)

I loved every second of the boys and I'm looking forward to what comes next!

I agree with @lunaticpandora. Season 1 was awesome, looking forward to Season 2. Especially after the ending to 1.
