Review of Devs

Devs (2020)
10/10
Brilliant is too weak of a word for this show.
11 May 2020
In all fairness I have absolutely no clue why somebody would rate this show negatively. I thought it was just brilliant, probably one of the best writing of a show I've ever seen. You have to pay close attention though, to be able to understand the whole story. I guess those negative reviews come from people that just want a show where you have not to think at all, or maybe it's just too complicated for them to understand. Anyway, everybody is entitled to his opinion, mine is for sure super positive. I binge watched this show in two days, and after seeing the end I understand there won't be a second season. It's a nice ending, can't see anything to add to it, so it's a one season show. And that's understandable but still it makes me a bit sad. Devs is definitely one of the better shows I've seen in a long time. I also don't get why people are bashing Sonoya Mizuno, to me she did a good job playing her character. Nick Offerman was my favorite though. I've been a big fan of him since Parks and Recreation and was very curious if he could play something else than comedies. Here he showed us he's a really good actor, I'm glad he did this show, it will open doors for him and I will watch everything he acts in. Devs is futuristic, the kind of sci-fi that makes you think, dream and wonder. Every episode is a surprise you won't see coming. I've been blown away by the quality of the writing. Whoever wrote this is a genious and should make more of these gems.
