EvolutionWarOG O One of the best shows I have seen in form of character development, historical time period and historical events from that time period, the fact that all the acting is just at an insanely high standard is just a plus. There are not many shows released in the 21st century I can give this praise to. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/18/23 Full Review Colby G Season 2 had some pretty awesome battles! Acting is solid and story flows well. Really enjoyed the show and hope for more soon Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/20/22 Full Review Audience Member Awful the choice for their leading man is to short and not a handsome man he is a poor mans John Snow. This could be a great show if they fix the casting if not sadly this will be 2 maybe 3 seasons then canceled. The rest of the cast is fine the writing is fine but like every movie or series your leading man or woman must be able to carry the show. No one believes this guy Jamie is someone who could have been a champion fighter. This is nothing personal it is just the facts. I can't watch this show anymore its a joke. I loved the other characters but when the series is based on someone you just can't believe in their role it ruins the whole thing. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review johann m Temporadas 1 y 2! Cautivadora!! Basada en las andanzas de Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, un noble y jefe militar castellano del medievo que se vio envuelto en diferentes batallas entre los reinos cristianos y musulmanes en la Península Ibérica, así como guerras por el poder entre los reinos cristianos. Aunque su primera temporada no engancha tanto como la segunda, ambas cuentan con una adaptación bastante interesante y entretenida para dar a conocer de manera muy fiel la historia española principalmente del siglo XI. Los diálogos y las actuaciones son bastante convincentes y está muy bien contada en sus 10 episodios. Hay mucha historia que contar y solo espero que continúe durante muchas más temporadas para que cubra toda la vida de El Cid. Sería algo muy satisfactorio. Nada como un buen drama de lucha familiar por el poder y por el trono. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Better than season 1. I recommend watching it with the original voices. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
