Citadel looked good in the trailers but it's a little bit boring. The main guy is a little unconvincing as a badass and the pretty lady is a very flat, and I think bad, actress. Also, each episode seems to start with an annoying upside down camera that gradually rotates back to upright as it zooms in. The rotate-y cam also happens during some other scenes in the episodes. Once off might have been OK, but repeating it again is stupid, it's a stupid trick and it looks stupid and I hate it.
I think the stupid stupid rotatey cam is supposed to be a selling point, as somehow Amazon decided it's good to do one of those STUPID 'coming up in the next episode of shitadel...' things and there was a tag
line of 'turning their world upside down'. What a stupid idea.
I also realised I have a major but trivial problem, something so simple but once I noticed it it I was unable to see past it - when the main guy (unconvincing badass) talks, his top teeth are not visible, only his bottom teeth. I don't know if it's the shape of his mouth or the camera angle, or both, but I find this so incredibly off-putting
