    "I'm sorry son. I should have done better."

    Gripping and intense. Not a who done it but a why. It tackles ideas of the radicalisation of young masculine minds and their relationships with family, school life and social media, as well as those of the opposite sex. The deconstruction of those themes in episode 3 leaves it as one of the greatest stand off episodes of television I've seen.

    ★★

    For a film that cost upwards of $275m, this felt like an incredibly empty and dull universe.

    Can someone please explain to me the use of Krieg in this movie? I haven't seen a useless peice of muscle since Bane in Batman and Robin.

    For the few video game adaptations thst have broke through for praise in recent years, this is a reminder of the shit we were exposed to earlier.

    First time I've saw this and I'm in awe at how beautifully animated everything is in this.
