I was surprised when Hunters season two came out because I thought it was a one off series back in 2020. I watched first one during corona lockdown and it was not a prime time of my personal life due to some other issues, so it remained in my memory as good, with good twist in the end. But, there it is! Second season, eight episodes and final season as poster above says. This one starts as first left us, with our characters, a group of Jewish Nazi hunters in 1979, dispersed around the world, some still hunting Nazis, some doing other jobs, some holding grudges due to events in the first season. But, one thing gets them back and joins them with another group of Jewish hunters, the hunt for ultimate Nazi, hunt for Adolf Hitler who still lives in South America with his beloved Eva Braun and plots how to come back and conquer the world. This one was created by David Weil(‘Invasion’, ‘Solos’) and has a stellar line-up with every character being so greatly written and done, from main man Jonah(Logan Lerman -‘Fury’) across Al Pacino who appears again in parallel story which prequels happenings in first season, to Jennifer Jason Leigh, Kate Mulvany, Lena Olin, Josh Radnor of ‘How I Met Your Mother’ sitcom, and of course Udo Kier as Adolf himself being grumpy insane old dictator, on the surface not having much reality based thoughts anymore and Judd Hirsch as Simon Wiesenthal. Since Jordan Peele is executive producer it was bound to have some interesting and a bit different parts. So, I love the hommage to ‘The Sound Of Music’, I think it was in episode two, and also the penultimate episode is I think something weirdest and also most beautiful that I have seen lately. Dialogues are great, there are plenty action scenes and deaths of dear characters, ending provides tiny window for third season, but I would like it to end here, this being final season as they announced.
10/10
