What I like about it: The Amazon Prime series is a pretty solid adaptation of Naomi Alderman's book. As the series went on, I realize that I am also remembering the events of the book right before they play out--which, I have to say, added quite a bit of suspense during some episodes.

The casting directors, Carmen Cuba and Nina Gold, really nailed--well--the casting. Halle Bush was especially astounding as Allie Montgomery-Taylor. Although I think they dropped the Taylor for the series. Toni Collette as Mayor Margot Cleary was also exceptional, as were Zrinka Cvitešić as Tatiana and Ana Ularu as Zoia.

Not to say the others weren't as good. But, in my opinion, these four really went above and beyond expectations. Especially for the characters they portrayed.

I also love Daniela Vega as Sister Maria. I don't remember her being a transwoman in the book. If she was, then I apologize to Naomi Alderman. If she wasn't, then I salute the team behind the show. This was a great addition to the narrative. And, for me, it strengthens Allie's relationship with Sister Maria.

And speaking of things that were not in the book; I liked that they made Mayor Cleary more than just a politician. Like, sure, she had daughters in the book. But making her still married and giving us time with her family allowed us to understand her better.

They really gave Toni Collette some good material.

I also really like that the guy being manipulated by UrbanDox is no longer Jocelyn's boyfriend like it was in the book. (Jocelyn is Mayor Cleary's daughter. Played by Auli'i Cravalho.)

What I didn't like: Dr. Rob Lopez. Especially after the fifth episode. It's like a switch was flipped and John Leguizamo was playing a different character from the one he was portraying in the first four episodes. And the thing is, you can see John Leguizamo struggling to understand why his character is suddenly so different from the one he was playing before.

They do bring him back to who he was by the finale. But, by then, his character has been assassinated.

I have issues with the pacing. Especially with the second, fourth, and fifth episode. It's like we're running through plot points that need to happen, but the timeline doesn't make sense. None of the storylines were connecting with each other. I had to take breaks from the show after those three episodes to reassess where the characters were in their lives, why they were acting the way they were acting--

I had to do a lot of connecting the dots and sweeping-under-the-rug just so I could continue with the show.

And now we come to my biggest gripe: the finale.

I hate the way they finale ended.

Specifically: I hate how they ended it for Mayor Cleary.

Allie and Roxy (Ria Zmitrowicz) got pretty clean arcs, I feel like. Tatiana and Zoia would've had clean arcs too, had Tunde (Toheeb Jimoh) not ended his storyline with theirs. And then there's Mayor Cleary.

I know what happens in the book. They could've picked a better stopping point for her since they were already changing stuff up for the show. Instead we get... what the show gave us.

It's a powerful scene, yes. It would have been more powerful had it happened at the end of episode eight. They could've moved some of her plot threads up. There was one episode where we didn't see her at all but the next time she showed up, it didn't feel like any time has passed since her last appearance. And so we end her story with a scene where a major event happens, and it's left hanging.

And not in a cliffhanger kind of way.

Her story is like someone decided to bake a cake. They prepared the ingredients, pre-heated the oven, mixed the ingredients, poured the mix into a cake pan...and just chose never to put the pan inside the oven.

It is so frustrating.

And it messes up an otherwise great finale.

It messes up an otherwise amazing season.

“The Power is our world, but for one twist of nature. Suddenly, and without warning, teenage girls develop the power to electrocute people at will,” the synopsis reads. “The series features a cast of remarkable characters from London to Seattle, Nigeria to Eastern Europe, as the Power evolves from a tingle in teenagers’ collarbones to a complete reversal of the power balance of the world.”

"El poder"

La reconocida actriz australiana Toni Collette regresa una vez más a la pantalla chica con el lanzamiento de "The Power", una serie dramática y de ciencia ficción británica que imagina un mundo en el que las dinámicas de poder entre sexos se da vuelta cuando las mujeres adolescentes desarrollan la habilidad de manipular la electricidad de manera voluntaria y natural, y que puede verse verse desde el viernes en la plataforma de streaming Amazon Prime Video.

En "The Power", basada en la novela homónima de Naomi Alderman

El Poder es nuestro mundo, salvo por un giro de la naturaleza. De repente, y sin previo aviso, unas adolescentes desarrollan el poder de electrocutar a la gente a voluntad, lo cual las lleva a una situación de responsabilidad que no es fácil de sobrellevar. En ellas estará la decisión de usarlo para el bien... o no. La serie presenta un reparto de personajes extraordinarios desde Londres a Seattle y de Nigeria a Europa del Este, a medida que el Poder evoluciona desde un cosquilleo en sus clavículas hasta una alteración completa del equilibrio del poder del mundo.

La serie está protagonizada por Toni Collette que interpreta a la alcaldesa Margot Cleary-Lopez, junto a John Leguizamo 

Con ese punto de partida, la entrega de nueve episodios relata de forma paralela las experiencias de Jos (Auliʻi Cravalho), Allie (Halle Bush), Ndudi (Heather Agyepong) y Roxy (Ria Zmitrowicz), cuatro adolescentes de diferentes países que representan a toda una generación tan abrumada como emocionada por su nueva habilidad, que provoca un veloz y por momentos violento giro de 180 grados en las relaciones de poder entre mujeres y varones en las sociedades históricamente patriarcales.

Margot es una mujer directa, honesta, inteligente y apasionada

Es madre de tres hijos, y esposa de un hombre igual de compañero y apasionado (a cargo del actor John Leguizamo) que ella. Ambos creen en la justicia social y la igualdad, y como alguien que busca y dice la verdad, es quien, en un tiempo incierto de cambios, se pone a sí misma y a su trabajo al frente para revelar qué está pasando.

9 episodios de los cuales Amazon ha sacado 3 de golpe y 1 cada Viernes .. de momento pinta muy muy bien 👍👍

Mejor la serie que el libro, este último resulta tedioso.

The Power & Citadel (Two Amazon Misses-ish)

[3 stars]

Sometimes ideas are better than their shows. Amazon recently added two to its arsenal that were just good enough to watch, but more than a little flawed in their delivery. In the case of The Power, the story and implications overrode the flaws by a narrow margin. In the case of Citadel… not as much.

The Power

While the better of these two shows by far, this is not a subtle show on any level. It’s an in-your-face physical metaphor for female empowerment, and often the lack of it. It borders on revenge fantasy, but given the state of the world I can’t really blame Naomi Alderman (Disobedience) for this self-adaptation of her book. It’s a wide-eyed reminder of reality viewed on a global scale. 

The problem with the lack of subtlety is that it often slips into arch presentation which diminishes the point and credibility. While that may work in a book, it is less effective on screen (large or small). The show may continue on in another season to be something more like a reverse mirror of Handmaid’s Tale. However, at the moment, even with a solid cast, it’s simply teeth-grindingly written at times. Not just in the dialogue, but also the forced character choices.

I didn’t know the book going in. And though the blurb was intriguing, it was the cast that initially got my attention. Toni Collette (Nightmare Alley) top lines this ensemble. The other main points of contact are Toheeb Jimoh (Ted Lasso), Ria Zmitrowicz (Teen Spirit), Zrinka Cvitesic,  and new-comer and tightly controlled Halle Bush. Each very different facets of the world and issues for women.

On the male side, Eddie Marsan (Vesper), John Leguizamo (Violent Night), and Josh Charles (Away) each bring different aspects of toxic masculinity, even while some are also “supportive.” Again, none of this is subtle, but also little is unfair or untrue at the core.

But that is, again, part of the problem. If you’re going to bring a problem to the screen that you want people to learn from or feel empowered by, you have to give them something more than what they already know to rally around. In The Power it is literally the “power” made manifest. But it’s just too obvious for a series…at least as stretched out over so many long episodes that turn out only to be prelude to the more interesting tale to come. I’d definitely come back to see if the story can be nurtured into something more, but this initial season had a little too little progression, despite its scope.

Citadel

The Citadel, on the other hand, tries way too hard to be clever and ends up being ridiculous. It’s purpose as a show, we find out at the end, is really to set up an anthology of series, each from different operatives in some way. I can’t say I’m all that intrigued as the writing was painful, even if found all the Brits and Aussies and Kiwis doing solid American accents entertaining.

I will say, though they weren’t well used, they did land a great cast for the inaugural story. From Stanley Tucci (Jolt), Richard Madden (1917), Priyanka Chopra Jonas (Baywatch), and Lesley Manville (Magpie Murders) in the main driving roles to Miss Fisher alumn Ashleigh Cummings in a solid supporting role, no one wasn’t working hard. But the script and direction did none of them any favors.

The story itself is a clever idea, and the writers try to cover over the silly aspects of it as best they can. But it swings wildly between action and absurd with very smart people making very stupid choices. And the world itself is rife with contradictions of facts that are presented to us at different times. I will grant the show that it often didn’t take the easy route for solutions at least.

Basically, watch for the action and, should it attract you, the romance. Don’t expect brilliance, at least in this opening entry to the anthology. Whether they can save this or offer something better, only time will tell.
