...since i am not from Canada. I wanted to give it a chance since it was a bit of a different take. I thought it would be a little like the modern take on Romeo & Juliet. How wrong i was
The script it awful, leaving little for the actors to work with. It's hidden messages are nothing but divisive and unncessary. The bad guys are all of one type, the good guys are all another type. I would have let this slide if it was believable but you know, it's just not. Why in a modern era would you not have a police force that matches its demographic since that's the message you want to send?
The story is trying to suggest that law and order is a negative thing despite it keeping society functioning. It's like it's trying to push for anarchy being a good thing. The original story of Robin Hood was not about disliking law and order, it was that the Sheriff and Prince John were oppressive and taxed everyone into poverty. If you didn't pay your dues, you'd to sent to jail. If you opposed the tyranny, then you were hung. If this new take on the story was trying the same thing then why were only one type of people being oppressed and not everyone that wasn't part of the elite?
I heard about the director calling anyone out that doesn't like it as a certain type of person. Therefore, if that's the kind of response i get as a consumer, then i'll not bother with the rest of the episodes or any future seasons.
Just a 1/10.
