Michael Idato Sydney Morning Herald The genre itself isn’t fresh, even if the execution feels like it is. What is solid here, however, is the stunning cinematography (Sam Heasman and Aaron Reid) and richly textured direction from Rapman, aka Andrew Onwubolu. Rated: 4/5 Jul 11, 2024 Full Review Aramide Tinubu Variety Supacell has the familiar and sometimes predictable themes found in these types of projects... Still, Rapman’s exploration of what it means for Black people specifically to gain powers makes the show unique. Jul 3, 2024 Full Review Vicky Jessop London Evening Standard Does it work? Yes. The whole thing hangs together, thanks to the engaging cast (almost all of them are fresh faces), and the well-executed action sequences. Rated: 4/5 Jul 3, 2024 Full Review Dustin Rowles Pajiba While the six-episode series may not boast Hollywood-level special effects or action sequences, it compensates with rich character development and social commentary. Jul 29, 2024 Full Review Liv Facey Refinery29 Supacell turns the pain, frustration and isolation of living with sickle cell disease into something in which extraordinary strength and power can manifest. Jul 17, 2024 Full Review Ben Gibbons Screen Rant Supacell is a spectacular new superhero series that delivers a new original story in a way that stands out, even in an overly saturated genre. Rated: 4.5/5 Jul 8, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
