The 100: The Complete First Season Reviews
| 103 of 117 people found the following review helpful  If you like Science Fiction you will like this show, Verified Purchase This review is from: The 100: The Complete First Season [HD] (Amazon Instant Video) First, I've just watched the pilot. I don't understand the varied reviews of this show. The "100" are juvenile delinquents released from their space station prison sentences to populate a radiated earth: earth is most likely not habitable. But down they go, and when they get to earth they not only experience a "planet" for the first time, but they also have just been released from prison. So imagine, 100 irresponsible criminals get dropped on an earth that hasn't seen a human in 97 years; you might expect to see some strange behavior and you do. The setting is pretty awesome, the characters are interesting and unless the writers completely drop the ball on the plot/story, then you can expect a pretty good show. Also note, all the bad reviews have come from people who have just seen a single episode (who's expectations were probably unrealistic in the first place). This is one of the better pilots I have seen. 0 39 of 43 people found the following review helpful Know the particulars of a show before you give a negative review., By Sci-Fi Lover "1pmanningfan" (Kodak, Tn) - See all my reviews This review is from: The 100: Season 1 (DVD) Apparently, many people only watched 1 episode and then wrote a review. So, they missed all the agonizing decisions and sacrifices that are made by both the juveniles and the adults on the Ark. They also totally misunderstood the characters. Sure, some are stupid, but the leaders, Bellamy and Clark and even Octavia, are not criminals. Octavia was imprisoned just for being born since no person was allowed to have more than one child. Bellamy, her brother, is an older, trained security officer that snuck on board to watch after Octavia, and Clark was imprisoned because she knew a major secret - the fact that the Ark is dying. Her mother, who is a high profile doctor, wanted her on board the drop ship so she could possibly survive. Clark has a lot of medical training that she learned from her mother, and even Monty and Jasper have some superior skills at engineering and farming techniques. They were just stupid enough to grow some "improper plants" and got caught. Finn wasn't a...

The idea is well-traveled science-fiction terrain, with last year's 'Oblivion', starring Tom Cruise, being one of the closest and most recent comparison's. But that happens all the time in Hollywood, with nearly identical film concepts racing each other to theaters to end up playing simultaneously: 'Armageddon' and 'Deep Impact', for example, or this year's 'The Double' and 'Enemy', both about emotionally crippled young men who have their lives upended by extroverted doppelgangers. But I thought 'The 100' seemed like a cynical cash-grab counting on fans of 'The Hunger Games' and 'Divergent' to tune in. Well, it certainly will appeal to the same demographic, but this series, based on a book by Kass Morgan, is much more than a cynical cash-grab.It begins on 'The Ark', where a small remnant of humanity have lived for nearly a century, waiting for the radioactive aftermath of a nuclear holocaust -- which came...
