Storyline
===========
Ever since her short-lived stint as a superhero ended in tragedy, Jessica Jones has been rebuilding her personal life and career as a hot-tempered, sardonic private detective in Hell's Kitchen, New York City. Plagued by self-loathing and a wicked case of PTSD, Jessica battles demons from within and without, using her extraordinary abilities as an unlikely champion for those in need... especially if they're willing to cut her a check.
Jessica Jones Movie Reviews
================================
Long time lurker, first review. No spoilers. I feel like this show could have been so much better with a slightly bigger budget. They have put enough money towards hiring a decent cast, but the lack of proper special effects makes it seem a bit bland sometimes, even though I really like the story and most of the characters.
Sometimes the writing really makes me cringe. Even though superpowers are involved, realism is still highly important in all aspects, fine details should be worked out as to what is acceptable and what is obviously not. I really felt the same issue with Daredevil. That being said it has plenty good moments, more so than bad, and the few mistakes can definitely be overlooked. IMHO it's still a decent show, slightly overrated, but still worth the watch. 7/10 in my book.
