    This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

    Alphas is a television series that aired in the United States on the Syfy network in 2011 and ran for two seasons. The series centers on a group of individuals, known as Alphas, with super-human abilities due to the progression of human evolution. This group, led by a psychiatrist named Dr. Lee Rosen, uses their abilities to assist the government in solving suspected Alpha-related crimes. Dr. Rosen studies and attempts to understand the Alpha phenomenon, while also working to help his team understand and live with their abilities.Is this series based on a novel concept? No, but it is entertaining. Is there anything spectacular about Alphas that we should rave about? Nah, but it is still fun to watch.While it is certainly entertaining, the downside to watching Alphas is that you are guaranteed to be disappointed by the ending.

    The film Alphas really is nice. The script is good the camera-work and directing is great. The main actors "all rock except one"! The character Gerry played by: Ryan Cartwright is overacting like it would be a theater play and spoils a and everything as he is playing a very active role....Its a pity, as I like the film but each time he come up the film becomes as credible as a film for kids. It would have been more credible if the cast of Gerry would have been someone more old and less childish. As for now even his spoken parts when he does not wave around in the air, are incredibly childish. Sad to have to say this ...but it truly made me stop seeing this otherwise great series after only 3chapters. After this I will look at any film so that this actor isn't on the cast.

    I enjoyed Alphas first season, I really did, it did what Heroes constantly failed to do, it humanised the heroes problems. You sympathised with characters "because you could relate", then came season 2 and everything went skewed, if you've watched it there are plenty of reasons why it started falling apart. Gary becoming nothing much more than an anarchic blogger. Bill becoming an underground fighter. There are many more examples of failures in writing, but the one single shining point of light in the second series is Kat, because-well they did what they did in season one, made her relatable. I'm not sad there's not gonna be a season 3, I cant see anything good coming out of the "shocks" in Gods Eye, but I know I'm gonna be in the smaller camp here, it just got stupid and formulaic.
