Jim Pagiamtzis review:
Based on best selling comic the The Boys is brought to life by Amazing Prime with Billy Butcher (Karl Urban) and his gangs out to get the Homelander (Anthony Star) and his gang headed by Madelyn Stillwell (Elizabeth Shue) begin their reign on the world with a secret source of their power compound V being known a few people)
The story has a interesting arc that included that cast yet doesn't bring it full circle which creates many unknowns for the teams future
The main battle is between Butcher and Hughie Campbell ( Jack Quaid) to try and expose the team but things get complicated quick and go sideways for them also.
As it get to the climactic end some questions get answered as to who is to blame for the entire sage yet that more questions to be answered. Hence for sequel coming soon
6 out o f 10 stars
