Prime-Video - Hunters : A great new series

By Mulder, 19 february 2020

A long awaited series is finally coming to Amazon Prime streaming services. Produced by Jordan Peele and staring Al Pacino Hunters follows a team of Nazi hunters who are looking for swift justices,set in 1977 New York.

The premises of the show is not that out of possibility. The idea of a group of Jewish immigrants dedicating their time to hunt Nazis may sound like a series drama but the series manages to maintain a humorous tone. Hunters starts off spectacular, its fun, bloody and full of twists and turns. The tone set in the first episode is followed through on the rest of the episodes. It manages to mix a funny thriller full of pop culture references, over the top characters that feel like they were taken straight out of a Quintin Tarantino but at the same time manages to keep it series when it needs to be. Hunters even manages to throw in a musical number.

While i thoroughly enjoyed Hunters one of the problems that I feel the show will have is viewer retention, I bring this up because the first episode is an hour and a half long, for the general public this may be a deterrent. Even due to the length of the episodes Hunters is a show that deserves your streaming hours. The production quality is top notch, the character development is attractive, and the visuals are breathtaking. People should look past the hour and a half because this series promises to bring plenty of tears, laughs, and dead Nazis.

Synopsis :
Hunters follows "a diverse band of Nazi Hunters living in 1977 New York City. The Hunters, as they're known, have discovered that hundreds of high ranking Nazi officials are living among us and conspiring to create a Fourth Reich in the U.S. The eclectic team of Hunters will set out on a bloody quest to bring the Nazis to justice and thwart their new genocidal plans."
