Citadel is a 300$m cita-fail for Amazon

[sandstorm]

REVIEW: The globe-trotting spy-thriller 'Citadel' stars Richard Madden and Priyanka Chopra Jonas. Too bad it’s so bland. https://t.co/qAqCiwXSCI

• 'bland, generic, shockingly cheap-looking given the price tag'.
• The episodes feel empty, weak, and uninteresting, with a lot of talking and boring action pieces

The Russos had so much good will after Winter Soldier and it’s just been a steady decline ever since lol.

MTE, Winter Soldier was so good and then... idk, they ran out of ideas.

I took a look at this show out of curiosity and the scene where they explain the Citadel is a direct copy of the sequence in WS where they explain Hydra. It's the exact same kind of institution even, except the Citadel are supposedly "good guys" lol

Still hoping this will just be dumb fun like The Gray Man was, but we'll see.

It won't when these two charisma vacuums star in it 💅

Jeremy Renner taught ha

I feel bad for Richard but he hasn't done anything really worth watching but I wish him well.

However Mrs. Jonas has all the charisma of a wet mop.

They need to quit trying to make her happen. It's not going to happen.

Since GOT everything he touches flops.

not really because the bodyguard was huge (but mostly, yes).

[halevy]

Wasn't he in the live action Cinderella? That did fine I think...

[just444]

That is an insane budget

[doriiansz]

And for what? Two wooden planks 💁

[just444]

These dad action shows do really well for all streamers, but doesn't even sound like this one is executed well

Amazon has money to spend on bland things. they did the same thing to Rings of Power and that was also meh.
