Watchseries; Before I watched this show, I had a void in my life. There was uncertainty in my life.
When someone asks me what was the worst thing I ever watched, I could not answer that question instantly. I could stop, think about it, consider options and try to find which one would deserve that title.
But now, everything is changed. If someone asks me that question again, I will not have to stop and think about it, I will not hesitate, I will not drown in uncertainty!
Now I have a definite answer to that question! I can now answer it instantly without a second thought!
Thank you, Marvel, thank you, ABC, thanks to everyone involved in this show for having such an impact in my life. Thank you!

Inhumans watchseries. You know those cringe compilation videos on youtube that are physically painful to watch? Well that's how I felt most of the time watching this. The only good acting came from Iwan Rheon which is sad because this will not look good on his resume.
I would not recommend watching this unless you are extremely high or have a tolerance for horribly written and badly acted TV shows that never should have been made.

I concur - yes, it started off really naff. First episode I said to myself, what is this rubbish? I started to do housework and it was on in the background. By episode 3, it had my full attention. Still corny, not the best but really not as bad as some people are making out. I lost interest quicker watching Iron Fist. It's hard to find something to watch these days and some people are swayed by these reviews so try and be objective; give it a chance till the end before slating it, should you really need to.

Black Bolt (Anson Mount) and Medusa (Serinda Swan) are king and queen of the hidden lunar city of Attilan. Royal Guard leader Gorgon (Eme Ikwuakor) destroys a moon rover from earth operated by scientist Louise (Ellen Woglom). Black Bolt's brother Maximus (Iwan Rheon) has no powers although he does not have to join the powerless relegated to digging tunnels. He leads a revolt overthrowing his brother. Black Bolt, Medusa, Gorgon, and adviser Karnak (Ken Leung) all escape to Hawaii. Medusa's sister Crystal (Isabelle Cornish) and her teleporting dog Lockjaw are taken prisoners by Maximus.
The extended pilot basically killed the series. There are excuses but they aren't reason enough. It's a mistake to make it in IMAX which could never be justified. The scale is not big enough and the production doesn't look good enough. There isn't enough money or style or imagination or competence. By doing theatrical IMAX, they raised expectations and gathering their most fanatic viewers into the same rooms. Any failures would be picked apart and there are so many failures. The scathing critical response was overwhelming before it ever airs on TV. They may be better off concentrating more on Triton's mission on Earth and slow rolling the palace intrigue on Attilan. It would allow them time to build Attilan as a viable set. The pilot is a throwback to the bad old days of slap together comic book adaptations. I can't count every problem. The acting is fine with a few glaring failures. The dog looks cute and is probably the only saving grace. The story is badly constructed. With all its mistakes, I hope that we're done with this show. Somebody took their swings and struck out. Time for the next batter to step up. These characters are better left to TV dustbins.

I'm shocked this was released in theaters. I understand pilots can be bad at times but this show is weak. Bad special effects don't help the bad writing. The stunts are stunted like the maker's Iron HamFist on Netflix. The electronic versions of 60's hits playing make it pretty funny. There's a reason fans or ABC/Disney is downvoting negative reviews here. That reason is even Variety(who gave The Dark Tower a good review) went to levels I've never seen before to let it be known they thought Inhumans was pretty horrid. If I had to guess, ABC's attempt to draw in teen viewers who aren't familiar with the comics turned this into something you'd expect to find on ABC Family. Prepare yourself for the Chronicles of The Inhumans, or better yet don't. Unlike the low-budget scifi shows you can find around cable, this production doesn't understand its limitations. If you were disappointed by Agents of Shield this won't lift your spirits. Another bad Marvel production. Disney isn't very good at this.

Please. Stop. Who ever allowed this to get out of concept and into development needs to not work in the industry.
Concept - dull Writing - horrendous Direction - impossible to make compelling, nay, tolerable, without decent writing, which this has none. Editing - impossible to make compelling, nay, tolerable, without decent writing, which this has none. Acting - impossible to make compelling.. dittos above Costumes - impossible to.. dittos above. Sound track - impossible.. dittos above. CGI - imposs... dittos above. Everything else - dittos above.
This is just plain bad. I cannot drum up enough imagination to add more commentary because it is impossible to write compelling commentary when.... dittos above.
OK, let me add one creative nit pick. If they are on the moon, which has 1/6th gravity, at least try and act like there is 1/6th gravity. Is that asking too much? Of course it is. Buck Rogers from 1939... muy better.
