Very good ending, apart from the Spoiler: | shootout at the beginning | , which was retarded. Some scenes/events were somewhat predictable, though, and I feel that some events were kind of pulled out of a hat throughout the second half of the season, but all in all, a great watch.
Looking forward to season 5. |
I agree to some extent. The following is spoiler-heavy.
Spoiler: |
This season was a let down. Not only as r3dshift said was it mostly predictable, it made little sense in the grand scheme of things.
Nobody ever learns anything. This shows doesn't grow nor elevates itself, it seems stuck in a spiral of trying to keep you engaged by always making the stakes higher:
-S1: A riot
-S2&3: Gang war + Russians mobsters shooting up a city
-S4: Cartels
-S5: National Guard?
-S6+: ...ISIS with nuclear devices? A Chinese invasion?
I already was lukewarm towards end of S3, and I probably won't care for S5.
Could have been so much better. I enjoyed the ride before it became stupid.
