To me it's a wasted chance to make something really cool. The show has 7 episodes and the first 5 of them are just brilliant! Everybody did a great job and Felix Cameron as the 12-year-old Eli was just out of this world! The story was cool, the characters were damn authentic and I just couldn't help myself diving into all this without looking back. However, the last two episodes - in my opinion - ruined everything. Seemed like they were made by other people, way less professional, and way less interested in the end product... Suddenly turning a believable criminal story with minor fantasy elements into a freaking cheap superhero movie... it's weak, it's just so weak. I can't believe the team didn't see how wrong the ending was. It's like an ending taken from another show... Anyway, I'd give 8/10 to the first 5 episodes and 2/10 to the last two episodes. Meh.
