GazzaGarratt 11,049 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Really good trailer. The connections on his body reminded me of the matrix. Some decent actors in it too.

phil bottle 9,758 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 I watched the first episode today. Pretty decent so far and I'll give the whole series a go I think.

techno 3,510 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Watched the first one so far, found it a little heavy going but im sure it will ease up as the series progresses.

phil bottle 9,758 Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Well now, having watched some more I'm still enjoying it.

After watching a few more episodes I have to agree, at this point they may as well have just not bothered with a costume budget and im guessing the women decided to burn their bras again 😉 I am hoping Lt Ortega decides to shed her clothes as well though . phil bottle 1 Link to comment https://forevergaming.co.uk/forum/forums/topic/5329-altered-carbon/#findComment-102542 Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil bottle 9,758 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I've watched three episodes so far and still digging it. Early days still. Little progress on the investigation but the ending suggests the next episode we will be finding out who's sleeve our hero is currently inhabiting...Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk GazzaGarratt 1 Link to comment https://forevergaming.co.uk/forum/forums/topic/5329-altered-carbon/#findComment-102792 Share on other sites More sharing options...
techno 3,510 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Just finished watching the series, thought it lost its way in the middle a little, or lost me but it wrapped up the story pretty well in the end. Enjoyed it more than I thought I would at one point.

GazzaGarratt 11,049 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Only finished 3rd episode but really enjoying it still. One thing I am starting to lose my way on some parts is the fact you actually don't know who really is in the sleeve. Like one day its one person and the next another in the exact same sleeve...does this get more confusing as it goes on?

GazzaGarratt 11,049 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Episode 4 is truly amazing. The idea of how the main lead absolutely triumphs out of his situation is purely amazeballs.

Really worth sticking with the story. One thing I couldn't work out is what type of bomb killed the The Envoys?

GazzaGarratt 11,049 Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Managed to watch the entirety of season 2 now. I didn't realise it Anthony Mackie playing the lead role now but he fits the series based on what goes on - although I loved the main actor Joel Kinnaman playing Kovac. I'd say its a slow burner on how the season goes on - stuff unfolds in later episodes which I found I had to concentrate on pretty closely. I think Po is the best character in the series (his sidekick AI), brilliantly acted and has a warming, funny side to him that mixes well when he cares for Kovac not like AI are supposed to care. It dipped from Season 1 slightly imo, because it felt like they needed to find a reason to keep Kovac going on, doing what he was doing and it naturally takes you time to get into Mackie as the lead because there's no seamless link at ending of Season 1 to 2. Worth the watch if you enjoy Sci-Fi series that make you think whats going on, with some action involved throughout, obvs. 7.5/10.
