Review:
John Cena is charming as ever in this DC comedy about a costumed vigilante who finds a team and tries to be less of an asshole. Full of swears and cultural-political commentary, it’s not Ibsen but it succeeds at what it aims for – a real-world social dynamic in an unreal setting. Season 1 is full of glam metal, which is awful but at least funny, and a plot about Bolshevik butterflies. Season 2 has better music but a worse plot about a fascist alternate dimension. There won’t be more; Cena’s probably gonna run for president or something.
Content notes (may contain spoilers): blood and violence, swearing, obligatory HBO nudity and sex
