Gotham (2014–2019)
7/10
Good introduction to the Batman characters, but a little overkill.
30 March 2017
This is a rather entertaining and intense TV show starring Ben McKenzie as a young Detective James Gordon. He sides with justice and attempts to ride Gotham City of corruption, really bad guys and supervillains - all before the arrival of Batman.

It's very interesting seeing the introduction of each characters, especially that of a young Bruce Wayne and the villains before they became The Joker, Penquin, Riddler and Catwoman. Lots of intriguing episodes about the sources behind Gotham City's corruption, making the plot unpredictable and suspenseful. Action is a little overkill though, and the acting goes from too monotone (Ben McKenzie) to overzealous and overindulged.

Not a bad show, overall. Eager to see how everything unfolds.

Grade B-
