Bosco685 Posted November 19, 2017 Author Share Posted November 19, 2017 The character interaction on this show is great. Whether it is Micro and Frank, the Homeland Security agent and her partner, the Jigsaw and Rawlins or even the vet support group. It really makes the show more relateable and realistic. Add to this individual characters with real-world problems (that young vet), and it makes for a great show. Spoiler I wasn't sure where they were going to take Lewis Walcott as a troubled vet being turned down for work and unable to open up to friends or family. But after seeing even where the legal system made him feel unappreciated. It tripped him over the edge, leading to terrorism.

Gatsby77 Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Six episodes in and I'm surprised by how much I like this. Probably my favorite Marvel Netflix show since Daredevil. Reminiscent of Season 1 of Homeland. Spoiler Just waiting for Lewis to blow a la Nuke's slow burn in Jessica Jones. ComicConnoisseur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnboxingTreasures Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Finished the series this weekend. Thought it was in the top tier of Netflix Marvel adaptations, up there with S1 of Daredevil. I loved that they have Micro in the series :-) Great action and Russo was a fabulous character. Spoiler It's a shame that Agent Orange could only get killed once :-) comic_memories, Bosco685 and ComicConnoisseur 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PunisherPunisherPunisher Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 11 episodes in now and WOW...what a series, characters are played to perfection. On level par with Daredevil S1 comic_memories and 1Cool 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comix4fun Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Just finished it, really well done. I won't spoil it but it's a so well put together that it moves to the top of the Marvel Netflix totem pole. Fresh takes and venerable characters and a handling of events and motivations that work really well in the present day. As I mentioned to a friend this morning, in ranking the last three Netflix Marvel series you should: Skip Iron Fist Skim The Defenders Savor The Punisher STORMSHADOW_80 and ComicConnoisseur 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On level par with Daredevil S1 I am only 3 episodes in and I totally agree - I am excited to finish this series, it is easily the best since DD Season 1 and Season 2. I feel like Netflix/Marvel may have their mojo back after the disaster that was Iron Fist and the disappointment that was Luke Cage and Defenders.

Reveal hidden contents It's a shame that Agent Orange could only get killed once :-) I couldn't help it after the first five episodes, and stayed up late to finish this off. Micro helped make this more than viewers watching a man suffering from loss doing nothing but killing villains. We learned more about Frank from their discussions throughout the season. Episode 11 is where Frank finally Spoiler sprays on the classic skeleton. Loved it! So much gore, but for all the right reasons to tell a wild yet entertaining story.

prez Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 I liked how Punisher is so grounded - not your typical superhero show. John Bernthal is a breath of fresh air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Bernthal is a breath of fresh air. That's a great observation. We've seen the Punisher now in several films, and this portrayal of Frank Castle before he became the Punisher carries the most weight. His relationship with his children and especially his wife feels the most real and tangible. You really feel his loss and his pain in a way that I think some of the other portrayals simply used them and their deaths as catalyst or pretext for him mowing people down.

Bosco685 Posted November 21, 2017 Author Share Posted November 21, 2017 The ending scene was really interesting. Spoiler Frank without a purpose, other than being left with his memories and trying to deal with all the trauma he has experienced throughout his life.
