    Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
    FrogGlace In other words,this film is a surreal ride.
    Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
    Cissy Évelyne It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
    tadaia Season 1 of Luke Cage was entertaining but Season 2 has raised the series to a whole new level... and one that I didn't expect to see from this genre. While Mike Colton may not be an Emmy winning actor in this, he does seem to embody the best of Luke. It's the rest of the cast that takes this series to unexpected heights. Missick, Rossi, Ringgold, RC Jones, TQ Jones, RE Cathey and others are all excellent. As well, Shakir as Bushmaster is dark, formidable and frightening. But the real gem here is Alfre Woodard... WHEW! It'll be a travesty if she doesn't at least get an Emmy nomination. Mariah Stokes Dillard is at times oddly sympathetic and at others she's bone-chilling concentrated evil. For my money she's the best Marvel TV series villain yet. Woodard's performances are a stunning tour de force, thankfully due in part to the writers and directors allowing the show to take the time to breathe rather rush from one action sequence to the next. Those that came looking for that type of show (just action) may be a bit disappointed, but for me THIS is what most of the Marvel shows should be. With 13 episodes there's plenty of time for the audience to immerse themselves into Cage's vivid world of well constructed character interrelationships. This season boasts a heterogeneous collection of dynamic characters written with clear motivations and a sense of purpose. The ending was surprising but a pleasant one that sets up some intriguing prospects for Season 3. I, for one, am looking forward to it.
    dobbouk Has me hooked. Love the politics behind it all too. Great characters thar you can empathise with.
    mfilhof Though this show lacks a little more action at times, leaning too much on dramatic dialogues and boring scenes, I do wanna commend the producer Cheo Coker for bringing in Danny Rand. I've always found great the idea of putting two or more heroes together. The Defenders was awesome, bringing Danny, Jessica, Luke and Matt Murdock together. On Luke Cage's second season, I did miss the participation of any of these guys. I was hoping to see Jessica too, since they were lovers once, and became friends. But Danny was a nice surprise... I know people criticized a lot his own show, but it doesn't matter. What the public wants is action, along with friendship among the characters. So, Coker... I know you're not gonna read this, but you did a good job on this idea of reuniting Luke and Danny!P.S. My post doesn't really contain spoilers... just very mild stuff...
    bordeaux-51625 I actually created this account just to write this review. Im so dissapointed in the direction the series has been taken. I dont know if its a new director or new scripwriters but something has changed! For the worse.It starts of pretty good, it has a good way of drawing you back into that marvel series frame of mind and world that includes the other great characters they have to offer. But slowly the warning signs start to show. The biggest one right from the start was when Luke Cage declares the city is his and if anybody wants to test him for it they should come find him. He finishes off this statement with a dab. I just facepalmed my hand, seriously who actually wrote this. Who made this actor feel like that was a cool thing to add. And this series is just a big super sized bag of cheesy wotsits (what we have in the UK) lol it just dont stop. So many cheesy one liners. Akward acting between this love romance of shadez and mariah. Every second! there is a moment where shadez is thrusting his groin at her just to have a conversation. The list goes on.. But i will finish it with this. This has to be the worst on screen attempt of a jamaican accent i have seen to date. The actors attempts at patwa is horrendous but to be fair bushmaster and his uncle do a pretty good job so props for that but hearing misty knight saying "wagwaan" makes me want to turn this thing off. So in conclusion not at all good but if your already a fan of the previous then obviously you have to watch to keep up with the everyhthing. But seriously if i have to watch another unimaginitive and unwarranted random fight scene on a bridge or somewhere silly again im done. "Wagwaan" with you marvel -_- Peace
