Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

lashonwade I was instantly intrigued by the uniqueness of episode 1, with its super hero, comic book like feel given to Shaolin and his red pumas, and quickly fell in love with this series for its characterization, interjection of poetry, and the origination of hip hop plot and setting. I binge watched all episodes In one night. I am so looking forward to the next season! This is the best drama/hip hop opera/adventure/love story ever. The story line is raw, gritty at times, and thought provoking. The music is awesome with its original hip hop nature of storytelling, coupled with the poetry, graffiti art, and dancing, this is every type of artists' inspiration, and a cross generational master piece!

rebeca andrei If you're ready for a gripping story that elegantly combines poetry, suspense, music and romance, get ready! You're in for a treat! The burning Bronx is not only burning because people want to collect the insurance money but is also burning with hope: for music, poetry and the prospect of changing the world for the better. The series is a merry go round that visits various themes:honour, loyalty, love,sisterhood and brotherhood. But this ain't no sugar coated story! In the Bronx, there seems to be no hope left. People are facing a lot of demons: poverty, drug addiction, getting involved with the wrong people and some lack the support for succeeding. But, as the message written on the trains say: Where there is ruin, there is hope and if you raise your words, not your voice then things change. Even if they don't change for the apparent eye, all the characters change, and so the eyes through which they see the world...The well crafted story telling reveals characters that seem so real you could feel their breath, is masterfully spiced up by the poetry and the music.

102030 This series has everything you have been asking for. Music, drama, love, bromance, (even some action) and music. Lots of great music. Really great music.You might be thinking that because you were not alive at that time or you didn't leave anywhere near the Bronx, you might not understand it. But i lived all my life in Argentina, and i was born on 1999 and i have really adored it. The scriptwriters understand their job perfectly.The speed on storytelling is plainly delightful, and the story itself makes you suffer and wonder a lot. Its awesome. And lots of fun. Lots.Please watch it, we need more series like that on Netflix. We deserve, as a society, good entertaining quality shows like this.I hope you enjoy it as much as i did.

dadamson-50-8390 Let's start by saying I am a 54 year old white woman with a 15 year old son and we both LOVE this show - go figure! We just finished watching the final episode of this season and can not wait until the next season. The 70s, the Bronx, the clothes (Huckapoo shirts - I didn't think anyone remembered those but they were quintessential garments back then). What's not to love - the editing, the music, the story and characters are all genius. Baz Luhrman has done it again. Such nostalgia presented in a modern way. Love the news footage - I'm guessing some of it is authentic?!? I highly recommend this show. Have fun!
