The Walking Dead: Dead City

A heavy-weight borefest profiting from the name Negan and Maggie that is so unnecessary and skippable it hurts. The recent seasons of The Walking Dead got us used to it being stupid and formulaic, with logic or any kind of suspense left by the wayside, but we've tolerated it through the fun characters that have grown on us over the years. In Dead City, however, all of that is lost and we can only judge it completely objectively based on its filmmaking qualities, and that's a big problem. Negan and Maggie have nothing to work with, there is simply nothing to show for such a simple, short and boring idea in the field of "only" (thank God) 6 episodes, so we can’t expect suspense, atmosphere or new entertaining characters, instead we watch purely walking from A to B and the creators' ridiculous to embarrassing attempts at some scares in the form of retarded zombies. Everybody acts like a bunch of idiots, the whole development is predictable one episode ahead and if you watch the three-minute recaps, you won't miss anything. Boring, boring and boring. If the next two upcoming spin-offs turn out like this, the entire The Walking Dead franchise may go down in shame and all the original fans will be left with the bitter aftertaste of a great franchise being gradually trampled into the ground, just like it happened in the last few seasons...

Maggie's looking for her son, Negan's helping her, a bunch of people from Manhattan are after Negan. So far, nothing remarkable, and it seems that this will be just another completely mediocre and pointless spin-off. Not to mention that the whole episode is very sup-par in terms of writing and execution. (07/11/2023)

If anyone writes about this episode or the whole series as " good", they are either a naive and blind The Walking Dead fan or just plain crazy. A tragic burial of the entire (by the last few seasons already pretty messed up) saga, congratulations. (07/17/2023)
