Jessica Jones (2015-2019)

Jessica Jones is a superhuman who chooses a career as a private investigator.

'Jessica Jones' is another Marvel TV hit series. As usual, it involves the story of another superhero with special powers, but it is a much more different series in style, as it's much more introspective and dark, especially when considering the personality of the main character, her cynicism and her alcohol problems. Krysten Ritter is wonderful as the protagonist of the series and is accompanied by her very different sister (Rachel Taylor), a lawyer who changes her tack often (Carrie-Anne Moss) and the few others who help her here and there in  her investigations.

The Defenders (2017)

The Hand becomes the common enemy of a team formed of Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and The Iron Fist.

'The Defenders' was a one-season-only event series, which probably aimed to familiarize fans of the 4 source series with the untried material. It's basically a sequel to 'Daredevil' and Jessica, Danny and Luke just help him fight a common enemy. In terms of style, it does not deviate from the mother series, and the plot is very similar too. It doesn't offer many surprises but it remains entertaining and is important for the introduction of season 3 of Daredevil.

Director:  S.J. Clarkson and others   

Production:  Netflix   

Creator:  Douglas Petrie, Marco Ramirez   

Duration:  1 season of 8 episodes (50 minutes each)

El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie (2019)

Activitatile lui Jesse Pinkman imediat dupa eliberarea sa de catre Walter.

Un film thriller facut pentru si la cererea fanilor serialului Breaking Bad. Nu era deloc necesar si nu aduce nimic nou la iveala decat o prelungire a sfarsitului cunoscut de toata lumea. Destul de bine facut, cu un suspans credibil si lent, El Camino pune accent pe amintirile lui Jesse din captivitate si cateva amintiri ale celor apropiati, o ocazie pentru ceva cameo a favoritilor fanilor.

Regia:  Vince Gilligan   

Cu: Aaron Paul, Jonathan Banks, Matt Jones, Charles Baker, Jesse Plemons, Robert Foster, Bryan Cranston, Krysten Ritter

Rating: 7/10
