Wonderful character development!

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

This was an absolutely brilliant show, the character Azazeal had to be my favourite. Michael Fassbender is such a brilliant actor, and his good-looks kept me watching this show. However, after Azazeal leaves Malachi to fulfil his destiny on his own, i continued watching the show! I would definitely like another season to see what happens after the finale of the second season. I'm not at all religious, but the religious side of the story made the plot more interesting for me. I didn't particularly see Azazeal as truly evil, even though he was supposed to be. I mean, he was still like-able as a character despite the things he did.My least favourite character has to be Roxanne, she seemed like a dressed-up little tart only after one thing...sex! She was a waste of time and i'm glad she is killed off. This is one show that i'll definitely watch time and time again

Hex is a one of the best programmes, need i say more, loved every minute of it, i just hope they make a third series as bot the first two series are fantastic, no sorry, MAGNIFICENT. It is one those programmes that you start to watch and can not get enough of as i said i hope they make a third series. Looking at this television it can be named in the same league as Buffy the vampire slayer in my opinion. When watching the programme you get a great sense of satisfaction from the storyline as is gets more intense as it goes along. first series gets the viewers to get a feel for the programme and teach important lessons about witchcraft and superstition. this makes the programmes great to watch with the feeling of something is around the corner waiting to come out and make you jump but not like a horror film. If i was to compare this with a film it would be the film from 2006 called 5ive Girls, this is a film based on witchcraft and has the same similarities to Hex.

Some quotes from friends of mine about the TV series "Hex":'Pretentious sub-Buffy twaddle.''"Hollyoaks" for Goths.''Moody, dark, impenetrably pointless.''As scary as a balloon on a stick.''Too mediocre to qualify for a "So Bad It's Good" badge.''Clearly written for teenagers by marketing men and seedy hacks in cardigans.''Money back, don't want.' 'Takes itself far too seriously.''Bad, bad, bad. Just really bad.''Like "Angel" but without the plot, the jokes or the acting talent.''A ghost train ride with the power switched off.''Makes me ashamed to be British.''Makes "Charmed" look like it was written by Chekov.''I'd rather watch fabric conditioner commercials back-to-back than another episode of "Hex".'So there you go. I couldn't find anyone who watched this miserable TV series who had a good word to say about it. Mind you, I'm 39 and most of my friends are of a similar age. There must be a lot of sullen teenage Goths out there who liked "Hex" enough for it to have such a high IMDb rating.

"Hex," more than any other show I can remember, plays for keeps. If henceforth all TV shows were this brave then TV would easily pass film as the most important artistic medium today. The problem is that TV depends too much on maintaining the status quo. Of course this problem has gotten better in recent years (and I'll happily give the credit to HBO), but still producers are too afraid to alienate their audience. Thus if you look back at any given show you will notice that very little changes from one season premiere to the next. The Desperate Housewives still live close by and Vince Chase still has his Entourage. My point being that "Hex" is not afraid of change. New characters replace old ones and nothing ever stays the same. If this season were a film instead of a TV show you would be hard pressed to find the lines between the episodes. We have also been trained to never believe a characters death (I'm looking at you "Alias"), and because of that this show had the ability to legitimately rattle me, in a good way.The story is quite Harry Potter-ish. A student at a boarding school gains supernatural powers and is thrust into a battle between good and evil. The main difference being that our hero here, Cassie, is not all good and much better looking. Strong characters are established from the get go. Besides Cassie we also have Thelma, her lesbian ghost roommate. Jemima Rooper who plays Thelma is the star as she represents the moral center of the show. She is good-hearted, but defiant, sex crazed but unable to do anything about it. If I were to have a complaint about the show it would be the shorthand they use to distinguish between good and evil. The theory of the shows seems to be that only evildoers enjoy bodily pleasures such as sex and smoking. This line of thought is very Puritanical and I found it annoying. By the time the monsters showed up on campus I really wasn't very excited to see them. I wanted more of the relationship between Cassie and Thelma. I know the otherworldly stuff is why people tune in to a show called "Hex," but in this case they didn't need it.If I were to find one theme from this season it would be that it sucks to be a girl in modern society because you are exploited for your body. We ca probably all agree that this world we live in is filled with evil. But being a guy I really have no concept of what it is like to have everybody I meet only be interested in having sex with me and my child bearing ability. These two things are the only things Azazeal wanted from Cassie. And because Cassie gave in to him she had to pay the price. This show is no masterpiece but it is darn good. The comparisons to "Buffy" are obvious, but this show is twice as good as that one. "Buffy" was a slave to the episodic nature of TV, whereas "Hex" sheds that skin and creates an experience that is nearly cinematic.
