Review of Primal

Primal (2019– )
5/10
What is everyone raving about???
23 August 2022
I decided to watch this probably like many people did because they like Samurai Jack and of course the guy who did that did Primal.

First of all the animation that everyone is going nuts over in their reviews is so '90s and simplistic. People must look at shows like Arcane, Love, Death and Robots or Invincible which are a lot better animation. Since the series is hand-drawn, you can tell that it reuses a ton of drawings from scene to scene.

People also say what a fantastic story Primal has. First of all Primal has no dialogue to help explain or move the plot along which a lot of people see as a huge positive, but I do not.

There are only 4 plot elements in the series

Run Fight Eat and Sleep

So for instance, 1 episode is basically Run Fight Eat Run Run Sleep and then every episode after that is just a variation on these elements.

I have been on IMDB for a long time and find it unbelievable how high the marks for this show are and how around 90 percent of the reviews are 10 out of 10.

Oh well, I have stopped watching this series and will not pick it up in season 2.
