I didn't even know that this series existed before stumbling upon it on Netflix one evening by browsing through the contents on Netflix. The synopsis for "Warrior Nun" sounded interesting, so I sat down to watch it.
And I ended up binge watching the series. Yeah, I must say that it caught on with me right away. I enjoyed the storyline and the characters portrayed in the series. And I must admit that I was surprised to find that they actually made a TV series of a comic book that I used to read back in my teens.
Well, the story told in "Warrior Nun" was definitely entertaining, because there were a good solid main storyline and the sub-plots that ran correspondingly with the main storyline were quite nice as well, and they were tied rather nicely in with one another. And "Warrior Nun" was definitely more than just a TV series focused on the main character Ava (played by Alba Baptista), because most characters in the movie definitely contributed something interesting and entertaining to the storylines.
But not only was the storyline good; the action in the episodes was just spectacular. I was really impressed with the action scenes and sequences throughout the episodes. That was definitely something that brought a great amount of enjoyment to watching the show for me.
Visually then "Warrior Nun" was just spectacular. The special effects and CGI in the episodes were rather good, and definitely added a very dynamic, if not realistic, layer to the show. And special effects definitely help to cement a series such as "Warrior Nun", to make it stand out from the countless other series readily available with a press of a button.
It should be said that the cast in the series was rather good, and they definitely had some interesting actresses and actors cast for the various roles throughout the show. Aside from the main actress Alba Baptista, "Warrior Nun" also boasts the likes of Kristina Tonteri-Young, Toya Turner, Thekla Reuten, Sylvia De Fanti and Joaquim de Almeida to mention but a few.
I was generally very impressed with season one and entertained by each episode. However, I must admit that the ending to the last episode was rather anti-climatic for me, and it just sort of felt like the air seeped out of the balloon at that time. But luckily there is a second season coming, so that is good news.
My rating of "Warrior Nun" is a sure seven out of ten stars. This series is well worth the time and effort.
