Watched all ten episodes of the U.S.A.'s 2022 The Imperfects, a reverse take on the X-Men series. There are many "mutant" characters in this movie, but the protagonists are Tilda Weber, a rock band singer who has super hearing; Juan Ruiz, a graphic novel artist who turns into a chupacabra; Abbi Singh, a college applicant who emits powerful pheromones; and Sydney Burke, a laboratory assistant who morphs into her dark side--all of them results of failed experiments by a genius doctor, Alex Sarkov. The entire series is about their quest to find the cure to their abnormalities.

The series is set in Seattle and is presented as a montage of different events. The performers look plain at first sight but become increasingly beautiful as the camera continues to caress them. There is, however, a lot of overreacting, and, therefore, overacting. Continuity is handled well. The only awkward shot is in Episode 9, when Juan stands behind a sofa and then walks round to sit down on it, and the camera must remain on him.

In all, there there are just too many movies like this, and they ride on one another until they become products of a collective mind. I have yet to encounter one about young people that is completely unlike all other movies about young people, and that is why I abhor sequels.
