The plot is based on a thin border between supernatural forces and the real world. Therefore, the series "Lucifer" reviews are usually grateful. For example, some viewers think that Lucifer is a mixture of such series as Castle, Twilight and Sleepy Hollow, and this mix makes it a great movie with a solid portion of humor.
Or is Lucifer a dummy?
It is known that how many people, so many opinions. Therefore, the series "Lucifer" sometimes gets reviews with a touch of negativity. A dissatisfied group of viewers believes that the appearance of the ruler of chaos is certainly impeccable, but his speech is unusually boring. In the process of viewing the main character does not catch, he does not dissemble, does not seduce. In their opinion, it is absolutely empty. The viewer does not understand the presence of individual heroes and their role in the storyline. Doubtful personalities include a balding producer and African-American rappers. Perhaps this negative impression is due to high expectations. According to the audience, they would like more intrigue, mysticism, temptation, but did not see any of this. Also, the displeased viewer does not understand why the obviously evil character takes the side of good. But, despite all the shortcomings, anti-fans do not say that the series is not worth watching. Rather, he is an amateur, and perhaps will appeal to those who do not even expect this.
Critical Assessment
Critics also did not set aside the series "Lucifer." Feedback from them was written on the Rotten Tomatoes website. Here 28 critics expressed their not so good impression of the film, which led to a rating of 4.8 out of ten possible. Also, an assessment of the "freshness" of the series was given, which amounted to 43 percent. 22 reviews with mixed and average ratings were published on Metacritic. Out of a hundred possible points, only 49 received the Lucifer series. The reviews were also carefully studied by the Russian magazine World of Fantasy. Based on them, the series was described as "not bad." Evaluating the series "Lucifer", all seasons do not need to be brought under one comb. For example, according to the "GK-portal", only the first season is characterized by a poor scenario and poor dynamics. The pilot episode of 2015, shown on the San Diego comedian, received a positive rating. According to Dan Wikline, the pilot series contains excellent dialogues and is characterized by an impeccable game of the main actors.
Protest
On May 28, 2015, a petition appeared on the website of the American Family Association, according to which, One Million Moms demanded to stop production of the series. After all, he presents the devil as a positive hero, and this, in their opinion, is an insult to the Christian faith and a mockery of the Bible. By the first of June, the petition was signed by eleven thousand people. The creator of the character of Lucifer did not go unanswered and commented on this situation. He noted that, it seems, just recently (in fact in 1991) they collected signatures against his comic book “Sandman” due to the fact that he contains LGBT characters. Then they were not happy with Wanda, who was a transgender. With their petition, they demanded that this character be removed and promised to boycott the comic until this request was realized. But this method did not work last time. Then, maybe you should not step on the same rake?
Neutrality trail
There are spectators who, having watched the Lucifer series, will not be reviewing all episodes again. They note his dullness, but, despite this, they notice that there are a number of points that fascinate. Why are there neutral reviews? Most often because the viewer perceives the series as a banal story. Perhaps for a very serious person this is exactly what will happen, but the series will definitely like the light and picky viewer. According to the audience, the banality of the series is felt due to:
- Boring plot. That is, if you imagine that the main character is not the lord of hell, but an ordinary person, the series becomes similar to typical American detectives.
- Patterned characters. Lucifer’s same smiles, Decker's cardboard character, empty as a psychologist character.
Of course, this is not a stigma for the series and is considered simply the subjective opinion of specific people. But, deciding to watch the Lucifer series, one should not set the bar too high, and then, perhaps, the viewing impression will be worthy.
How Tom Allison Responses to Season One
Before starting to read the script for the final episode of the first season, Tom understood that something fantastic was waiting for him, but he did not think so. The first thought that came to his mind was "as soon as possible the scenario of the second season." Tom Ellison believes that the series is only gaining momentum, and the actor really likes it. The actor, who played the main character, is very pleased with the events that he has to play, but he would not refuse to go for a short time to Lucifer’s native penates. But here Tom hypothesizes that perhaps this location should not be shown in order for the viewer to draw colorful scenes of hell in his head. After all, there is a high probability that with a minimum budget, you will not live up to expectations and show insufficiently impressive netherworld. Here Tom draws an analogy with the movie "Jaws", when the viewer represented a terrible shark, but never saw her in the film. And the most important thing is that Tom really likes to work in this project. According to him, he has a lot of fun.
Lauren German also has an opinion
Lauren respects the character of Chloe and her sharp character. The actress feels her very well, so the game gives her a real pleasure. With special trepidation, Chloe refers to the fact that she has to play not only a detective story, but also her mother. She believes that this is a very interesting side of the role. When asked if she likes working with Tom Ellis, Lauren responds with confidence that he is the best. According to her, he is kind and very responsive. Lauren even dared to say that she loved him. The words, of course, are serious, but the girl is now absolutely free. That is, they don’t have relations with Tom Ellis, and if they have, they are only friendly. Tom himself notes that he would really like to convey to the viewer that there is nothing between him and Lauren. Yes, they are colleagues, yes, they communicate closely, and their friendship is romantic. But the couple does not have partner love relationships. But who knows, maybe after a while the actors will discern true and passionate love in their friendship.
