Reviews For Dexter: Original Sin
MovieGuys
14-12-2024Simply put, not good. The unimaginative and rather cheesily titled "Dexter Original Sin" is, unlike the original series, about as subtle as a meat clever. The sense of light, sophisticated handling associated with the original series, is largely absent.Instead, the treatment is over the top, at times bordering on the ridiculous. We see Dexter looking at a girly mag but no he's really fawning over news cuttings of serial killer Ted Bundy wedged between its pristine pages. Oh and his sister ends up passed out drunk at a party about to be raped but after Dexter intercedes to save her, she can still apparently "take care of herself". Clearly, as we have just seen, that's not true. Its this kind of low brow, unintelligent nonsense, with a dash of woke BS, that sinks this series to the bottom. As is so often the case too, its a shame, as its a decent cast who have come together for this bloody debacle. In summary, all the trappings of success can't make up for the absence of a well crafted, intelligent, believable story. I adored the original Dexter because its everything, this pallid facsimile, is not. An emphatic pass from me.
