Wicked City (2022)

Not bad but needs serious polish

It has a decent story but takes too long to get the story started. It reminds me of a black version of Charmed but more over the top with lesser CGI. The CGI is horrible but if you can get past that the acting is not bad just a bit over the top. The characters are interesting and has decent chemistry which kept my interest. The targeted audience is probably the reason for some of the over the top acting and writing. Some scenes are a bit stupid but it gets better, I feel like more polish is needed. Maybe bringing in producers with more visual experience on magical or occult tv shows/movies would help . I only stayed with it becuz I got interested halfway thru the series. It's only 6 episodes so you can binge in a day. Starting the 2nd season to see if my rating will change to better or worse.
