Hanna is a adaptation of the rather excellent film of the same name from 2011.

The choice of actors, sets and the general vibe of the series closely and in my view wisely, mirrors the film. That said, as might be expected the story diverges but its general direction is unconvincing.

Why, for example, would an isolationist ex CIA operative rely on the very organisation he betrayed arrange his escape and that of Hanna? Especially given the emphasis he places on independence and a "trust no one" mentality? Not to mention his extensive contacts.

Its these flaws the pull this series down to a degree which is a shame as it captures the discordant, unsettling atmosphere of the original movie nicely.

Not a bad watch but not in the same class as the film.

6/10 from me.

I'm immensely disappointed. Hardly anything of relevance happened, **in eight episodes.** The majority of it, mostly everything in-between the first two episodes and the last two episodes, was filled with pointless crap having to do with a dysfunctional family and their nonsense, and dumb teen romance. And as if that wasn't enough, it was dragged out and out, for FAR too long. The pacing was horseshit. The plot, whatever it was, barely moved forward in its (the show) entirety. This was basically one long, needlessly dragged out, waste of time. Thank God I haven't watched the movie (yet), so I can always go and watch that for the first time to forget about this monstrosity. I have no doubt it'll be a million times better, at the **very least.** Now I'm starting to understand why I simply forgot about this show, forgot to continue watching it (until now), after watching the premiere when it was released early, earlier this year. I must've subconsciously known how utterly bland it was. At least it's out of the way now. I'll still watch the second season once it is released, but I'll have that hypothetical "bad taste" in my mouth from the first season. And I also hope it'll be significantly improved, although I won't hold my breath.
