Parasyte: The Grey

I was honestly expecting a bigger bang, but it's fine. For me, it's better than the two-part Japanese film, and the series is only 6 episodes long. The theme of the world being invaded by alien parasites that can impersonate humans is very cool, and the make-up effects and the CGI of the parasites look great. It's pretty much action packed, even pleasantly brutal, the characters are fine, the plot could have been more nutritious, but I had fun and it went by quickly. It's between 3-4, but I'm leaning towards the better mark. (06/04/2024)

It's hard to tell if I'm reviewing the entire series or just its first season at this point. Nonetheless, the finale certainly left the door wide open for a potential second season, and I wouldn't mind seeing it. While this season may not be a masterpiece, the creators delivered a fresh, action-packed spectacle with a B-movie vibe based on the comic. It kept me entertained without overwhelming me mentally. / Lesson learned: Two heads are better than one. 3*+ (28/04/2024)
