slow, boring and unrealistic
-
A horrifying, thought-provoking, futuristic dystopia that revolves around women's subjugation and religious dictatorship, with fantastic performances, great cinematography, and a haunting score. The only problem is that the series drags in its latest seasons.
-
A disturbing dystopian tale that cuts close to the bone. Atmospheric, complex and brilliantly constructed this is an excellent adaption of Atwood's classic novel. One of the best shows of 2017.

After watching the first 2 seasons its the bext TV series I've seen since the Sopranos. Some scenes are tough to watch but I had trouble looking away. Lots of closeups of Elizabeth Moss which are captivating. Each character seems perfectly cast. The photography and sound track capture the dark tone of the subject matter. Can't wait to move on to remaining seasons to see if the womens' strength and resistence continue to grow.

The imaginary dystopian world centered on the Republic of Gilead is something truly "different" and original at a time when the streaming networks are loaded with series based in post-apocalyptic worlds. The series is original in the landscape of the period. A technical performance, the acting & the aesthetics seems promising. fantastic first season
-
I have been hooked since the very start and still going. Every episode is so emotional! A times I have had to pause as it was just so tense. Superb acting by everyone. By far the best program I've seen.
-
Must watch film. Some harsh scenes but a story well played out in film with a tough story that should be watched by all...A good warning for us in this story
-
Something different which is refreshing and Elisabeth Moss is fantastic!!

After seeing over 70 episodes of this series in a brief time frame , its bloated overstretched, over done,repetitious gun in your face messaging is far too apparent. This series should not have exceeded 20 episodes. The main protagonist you can never bee in any danger from episode one as you know more then 70 episodes exist. The Marcel marso facial grimacing of the actress has evolved from initally funny to nightmarish and quickly loses any meaning. As lawerence Olivia once said to the method school. Just try acting instead. Only north American television could produce and contuine to produce such simplistic,lobotomised, exhausted tripe. A career killing tombe,for all involved. My eyes and ears hurt so much.
