Review of The Power

The Power (2023)
9/10
The 1&2 stars are ridiculous!
9 April 2023
First I'll start by saying I didn't know this was a book. Didn't even know it was a thought until this show. For everyone saying it's boring... this is happening to women all over the world, all walks of life and from wealthy to poor to homeless. That being said fleshing out the characters, and giving backstory is very much needed! I for one was very happy to have origin stories, had it just happened with no what, when, why and how I'd have been confused. By the end of episode 4, I was thoroughly hooked! The imagery coming out of Saudi Arabia was extremely powerful, literally and figuratively. I have no doubt there will be some terrible paths taken and terrible things to happen to some of these women, and the people in their path. And I'll be here for it! I'm happy to see something new, completely original! This is not superhero stuff, this is evolution and maybe even survival for some. I'm excited to see where it goes and will update my review at the end if needed.
