Customer Ratings & Reviews

As a big action movie/TV fan, I was all set to enjoy 'Powers- Season 1' for the ruggedly clever, superhero-themed series it appears to be. But I was swimming in deeper waters than I thought. With each episode, it dawned on me that the characters and the story arc were written with much more complexity than the 'hero-shows' normally enjoy. I have not read the graphic novel that the series was adapted from, but the layered themes are impressive, as were the show's filmmakers and cast. The story pushes beyond the personal struggles of good-vs.-evil into societal xenophobia, the seductiveness and addictiveness of power, and the boundaries of justice itself. I felt like I was swept out to sea by a massive riptide...and I enjoyed it thoroughly!

I've been excited for this series ever since it was announced and it did not disappoint! Of coarse it was made on the cheap but honestly thats fine.. It resembles its comic book counterpart but changes it enough to keep you guessing. The performances across the board were cast amazingly well but the young female newcomer is going to be a star someday!

The blu-ray release for Powers is pretty great. The show aired exclusively on The Playstation Network so it's great to finally get to watch it. I loved it as a fan of the original comic book, and my girlfriend liked it as well without ever reading the books. Special effects left a little to he desired but strong performances throughout.

Great series so far! Varies a bit (naturally) from the comic book series, but very engaging and keeps you wanting that next episode. Great for "comic book geeks", and also for people who just love good story telling and procedural shows (although this isn't traditional in the one case to solve per week style).

This is one of my favorite comic book series that I've read for many years! When I heard that they were making a TV series based on it I was extremely excited! It was Good, but not Great! Still looking forward to SEASON 2!

Unique story line. In this time of retreads and remakes this story stands alone. Although characters contain powers this is the only similarity it has with Heroes.

This was a blind buy, just saw it while purchasing other movies and decided to give it a try. Interesting premise, hopes it continues another season

I enjoyed this quite. They managed to accomplish something amazing for such a tiny budget. I can't wait to watch season 2!

Show has a good cast and good interweaving story lines that as entertaining and well written. I look forward to season 2.

Great product and great value. Funny and smart and well written.

It's good acting good and a good buy for a internet show
