Jessica Jones

Jessica Jones is the newest addition to the Netflix line of shows. It was created by Marvel Studios and released in November. I finally finished the entire series and I can say Bravo Marvel!!!! This was a very dark and different series that was very well done.
 
 
The lead character in the show is Krysten Ritter. Krysten is known for her roles as Jane Margolis on the AMC drama series Breaking Bad, Chloe on the ABC comedy series Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23 .
 
She has been in quite a few films such as  What happens in Vegas,27 dresses, Confessions of a Shopaholic, She's out of my league, Veronica Mars and many more.  She has worked very hard to perfect her craft. This very clear when you watch her work in the series. Krysten embraces the character and displays all of the emotion and rage a person would have if they were forced to act against their will.

This was one of the more surprising additions to the series. David Tennant played the super villain Killgrave. His character in the comics was called the Purple Man. He had the ability to control people and make them do what ever he said just by speaking to them. David is a very good actor. He played the Doctor in the BBC series Doctor Who. He did an amazing job in this role.
I watched the series and I enjoyed every minute of it. Dave played the Doctor for a few seasons and he then moved on to other roles. I think the time he played the Doctor  is one of the best portrayals in the history of the show.
I was surprised that he was cast in the role of Kilgrave in Jesseca Jones. After watching the entire first season ( yeah I binged watched the show) I can say that it was a job well done.
One of my favorite characters is Luke Cage played by Mike Colter. Luke Cage in the Marvel comics universe is a man who was wrongfully accused of a crime and imprisoned. While he was locked up they performed an experiment that led to him having skin that was harder than Steele and it gave him incredible strength.
He works in a Bar that was owned by his wife, while she was working a case for a client Jessica Jones was investigating the relationship that Luke had with a woman. This led her to develop feelings for him.
I am a huge fan of this character because he is one of the first Black comic Book heroes I read about when I was a kid. I loved the look that he had.  Luke and Jessica got into a fight in the later parts of the series. This was one extreme fight scene, they were throwing each other around like rag dolls. This entire scene was due to the control of Kilgrave. He took control of Lukes mind and unleashed him upon Jessica. They did a wonderful job with the stunt work in this part of the episode you were drawn in and you could actually feel the tension in the episode.
 
 
Rachael Taylor plays Trish Walker Jessica's adopted Sister. During the episode you see her develop the character in many facets. She deals with the issues she had with her mother who tried to live through her as a child star, She also has issues with being attacked. She is taking Krag Maga with a trainer and she has special locks and home security that make her place a fortress. Throughout the episodes we see how she deals with all of her issues

 
 
We see Jessica dealing with issues and problems as the episode moves along and each time we get a small peak at her incredible strength.
One of the characters that is from the Marvel universe is Nuke played by Will Traval. Nuke is a government agent that was given specialized drugs to heighten his combat abilities. He was made unstable by the drugs which caused him to start war in Hells Kitchen with Daredevil. We may see this later in the new episodes.
If you get a  chance to watch  the show you will not be disappointed because it is very well made. I hope you enjoyed this blog I will continue to write about interesting things as time goes by.
Take care
