Citadel: Diana

One person is obsessed over a haircut and the other is upset because it wasn't in English? Lmao gtfo. This is a good follow up to the original with a solid story line. Watch it for yourself and be the judge and PLEASE disregard these children who are close minded. From the original it was stated that Manticore was manipulating the world from the shadows. So not really sure why someone is upset because we got a story from Italy. When we know that manticore was formed from families around the world....

Like I said give it a watch and you be the judge. Too many people these days act like they are movie critics online because they know no one will listen to them in real life. I said what I said.

Jobs.

While Citadel: Diana had the potential to be a captivating international thriller, it falls totally flat in almost every aspect - except for Matilda. This feels like a low-budget series from the '90s. The storyline feels recycled, lacking any depth and complexity- unlike the first season. The pacing is uneven, with predictable twists that don't land anywhere. The show struggles to create meaningful tension or character development. The Amazon executives who approved these scripts should consider changing jobs.

Matilda, however, is the standout. She is the ONLY reason to keep watching the entire episodes which are painful to watch. She has a natural screen presence that captivates, and it's clear she's destined for greater roles. Hopefully, we'll see her in a major U. S. production soon, where her talent can truly shine.

In the end, while Citadel: Diana may not live up to expectations, it's worth watching just for Matilda- an amazing talent.

Another cliched mess offering nothing original just a rehash of better movies. Good actors does not make good video when all the other aspects are so lazy.

This is the sort of quality which makes me think AI has taken over Hollywood. So unoriginal just a scrap board of film and TV which has done well over the years.

There is also something strange about the audio. Like nothing was shot on site but all done latter in ADR and ADR done by someone who has no idea what they are doing.

Scenes are eerily quiet with so much background noise missing, voice has no inflections and sounds like in a studio.

Maybe it gets better in later episodes but it has too many problems for me.

Another unnecessary spin-off/show that relies on an unoriginal spy plot, stock characters, tropes, and cliffhangers, with the same a-young-protagonist-with-dead-parents-pretty-enough-to-be-mentored-to-seek-revenge story reminiscent of even better works such as the Hanna movie (not so much the TV Show).

I'm still unsure why this franchise from the Russo Brothers was pitched as a "global sci-fi event series," as it offers little that feels fresh or innovative. However, it might work for a one-day binge since it only has six episodes. The action sequences are also somewhat decent, and Matilda De Angelis delivers a semi-sold performance.

Wow! This was a terrible waste of time on a holiday weekend. But, I really should have managed my expectations better since the first "Citadel" disappointed--after a very good pilot episode.

Anyway, "Diana" is greatly hampered by constant back-and-forth between time, and so-so action sequences. The worst thing, though, is that the series doesn't know how to TELL a story. There's no character development, motivation beyond the very superficial. The actors are all Italians--and not really well known in the U. S.

The Italian locations are great to look at, but the convoluted story undercuts everything.

Given two strikes, I'm not sure I'm going to watch the next "Citadel" installment that premieres in early November.
