MR.ROBOT

We finally have an intense psychological thriller show that doesn't treat its audience like idiots. The creators actually spent some time doing their homework and the result is a work of art. Fantastic characters, iconic cinematography, all thanks to Sam Esmail's ingenious vision. By far it has the closest technical reality when it comes to hacking.No nonsense giant pacmans eating pixels on the screen or progress bars labeled "VIRUS" either. You can see the actual Unix coding on a computer screen.

Staring Rami Malek, Christian Slater, and Portia Doubleday. They are brilliant and the plot is very intelligent. Telling the story of a hard-working, struggling cyber engineer with hard drug addiction. It also depicts a realistic representation of how "our democracy has been hacked." It is also a very real-life story with quotes like, "I should just tell her what she wants to hear," and, "We're all living in each other's paranoia.".It requires the viewer to be attentive every minute in order to understand. It keeps you guessing all the time and comes with a big surprise, so whenever I felt it was getting dull something mind-blowing happens and flips the plot!

To appreciate or to enjoy it, you do not need to be tech-savvy. With the genius writing and pretty much accurate execution of hacking, you will get amazed by it. The voice-overs by Rami Malek, who plays Elliot is intriguing, always leaving me wanting more at the end of an episode, and it never feels "heavy" to me. You will get inside of Elliot's mind.

There is a reason why they got all the major awards like best drama, best actors. Because of their brilliant storyline, superb acting and moreover the actual presentations on how our privacy has been hijacked and how they can be manipulated. It's a must watch.

Recommendation: Highly Recommended.

Daredevil

When I heard Netflix was making a refurbished "Daredevil", I was skeptical at its success but also interested how the show could bring its angle and possibilities. To my surprise, Netflix's Daredevil is a masterpiece. The show is both thrilling and well designed. The plot is exceedingly engaging and thrilling. Every character which is introduced has a proper backstory. Thanks to the writing genius of Frank Miller. Who run's the Daredevil with other writers, such as Bendis and Brubaker. They bring out the incredible storytelling of Matt Murdock who is a lawyer in the morning but being blind, he fights with criminals at nights. The most compelling part of "Daredevil" is the villain Wilson Fisk. Vincent D'Onofrio nailed it. The menace and complexity in his voice even when he's not on the screen, and the cold, calculating and distant aspect of his body language, and the delivery of his dialogue, shows both the depth of his talent as an actor and th

The Punisher

Finally, Punisher has done right! After so many fails from other film companies, Netflix decides to go all out and nailed it. They almost pull him right out of the comic which could not have been easy, from the deep yells as he unloads his guns on the bad guys to the twitch of a man who is now disturbed but slightly keeping it together to the tie in of the Punishers mane nemesis. This show is one of the best Netflix Marvel shows hands down. All of the main characters are great! It's an awesome superhero show, that isn't really a superhero show. Some might say that it's wrong to call The Punisher, Daredevil, etc "superhero" shows. But as the late, great Stan Lee said: "That person who helps others simply because it should or must be done, and because it is the right thing to do, is true without a doubt, a real superhero." They don't need to be "super" to be heroes. As usual, Frank Castle doesn't have any special abilities, he's

Supernatural

When I first saw the trailer of the show, I thought the usual horror show that used to be so boring. But after watching the first season it blew me away. It's a mini horror movie every week with a unique story. It brings American urban legends into your home each episode. From the exceptional writing to the awesome soundtrack, this TV show is a step above the rest. I love seeing the dynamic between the brothers, Sam and Dean. It's like whatever happened in the past, the family is always family. Special effects were so great, it's like watching Avengers And that car. The brothers travel across America with the classic '67 Impala, With the classic rock music blaring on the cassette player and the roar of the engine, My god someone has a taste. this car is soo cool! The story is all about paranormal phenomena and mythological creatures, but the storytelling technique pulls you in and holds your attention, making you want to know a lot more about those supernatural th
