What critics are writing about Netflix's Cowboy Bebop

Less than a week is left before the premiere of the film adaptation of the anime "Cowboy Bebop" from Netflix, and foreign publications have already published their reviews. There is no consensus: some critics are delighted, despite the shortcomings, others argue that it is not worth spending time on a new project and it is better to revise the original for the tenth time.

1. “Even subtle action scenes tend to retain a sense of humor, which is palpable even when Spike, Jet and Fay are just hanging out on the ship or ordering noodles from the food van. This is not just a thriller, space opera, etc., but also a story about friends and family. And the show is good at almost all of these things. Whenever it seems like these elements shouldn't work together, Cowboy Bebop proves that anything is possible. " Rolling stone

2. “The setting is great, but at first it felt strange and wrong. Including the visual component - Jet's obviously false beard, a suit strangely sitting on Spike. The action scenes felt constrained and the special effects were cheap. So in the first episodes, the characters also behave like cartoon characters. As if the show implies that I know in advance who all these people are. "

3. “Obviously, it will be difficult to fill a game version of Bebop with the same magical atmosphere as in the anime, but the series for Netflix is ​​so far away. from the creation of this mood - or at least some adequate feeling of immersion - that it is difficult to understand how the project generally went beyond pitching ”, — Indiewire

4. “The authors managed to bring to life everything that the original anime is loved for. Unfortunately, attempts to bring something of their own into a successful formula turned out to be a failure and almost jeopardized the entire series. But the star trio of leading actors and dedication to the spirit of the original make the show worth watching. " IGN

5. “The new Cowboy Bebop is likely to interest anyone who has never seen the original anime - and those who have seen it will be delighted with references and other fan services. But in any case, it is better to include the original on all the same Netflix. The game project turned out to be extremely passable ", - Entertainment Weekly

All 10 episodes of the first season will air on Netflix on November 19. Will you watch?
