Gen V

An accomplished spin-off of The Boys! Spin-offs usually don't turn out well, but Gen V can definitely be considered successful, although it lacks the iconic characters of Butcher and Homelander, which are of course present in The Boys. All the rest works similarly. Those who enjoy movies and series set in high school will certainly not be offended by Gen V. We have a school focused on young superheroes, where you will develop sympathy towards them. Again, there is good gore, although there could have been more of it, it didn't seem that action-packed to me except for the finale. I liked the connection with The Boys, as a crucial thing happens here that will be pivotal for the 4th season, which is really nice. This cannot be said about the Marvel series, which simply cannot handle this connection with the movies and all of them appear redundant. Gen V manages to shock with decent plot twists – there’s a quite unexpected shock already in the first episode. Visually it is good, the pace is enjoyable, it's very entertaining and not completely foolish stuff. Fans of The Boys should not miss it. 75% (2023.12.19)
