Review of The Boys

The Boys (2019– )
7/10
Season 3 - What a disappointment
23 July 2022
Well let me start off with the first thing that comes to my mind; zero progression. Last two seasons were great in my opinion, we saw a few new faces, got a deeper background to a few of the characters and even had some character development. But this season was straight up a disappointment. Don't get me wrong I still think The Boys is a great series but there were almost no progression from season 2 AT ALL. Homelander is still alive and well and ruling as usual, the only man who could face Homelander is now back in a coma. This whole season was about finding Soldier Boy and make him kill Homelander and save the people from his crazy dictatorship, but all we got was a failed attempt and now the old man is back in a coma.

I saw a few people mentioning that Homelander is now such a big and important character for the show that he can no longer be killed and defeated. The series has absolutely fooled itself. The hunt for Homelander cannot go on forever, an endless loop of empty attempts to get rid of the most powerful man in the world. I beg that we will see a change next season or this show will crash to the ground.

Season three started off great with alot of new threats and problems for The Boys to solve but it all ended up with being back to where we were at the start of the season...

Hoping for something truly spectacular next season!
