A lot fewer than 100 BULLETS for Chosen
Anyone who likes this series need to hurry up and read the "100 BULLETS" comic books. Because Chosen is ripping it off big time.Except they ruined the plot. In the comic, the secret organisation seems to have an agenda beyond just morbid entertainment. In the comic, the people given a suitcase has personal motivation to kill their targets. "How far would you go for revenge? If you were given a chance at deadly retribution with a guarantee that the law could not touch you, would you take it?"
In Chosen, we just get random people coerced into killing other random people. I was waiting for dark secrets of the characters to emerge. Nothing came. They really are just in the "game" for the entertainment of some perverse and resourceful people. At the end of the day it's just silly.
Given that they have had quite a few years to rip off 100 BULLETS properly and even upgrade it, I would have enjoyed some more "surveillance society paranoia" type plot twists. Very little of that though.
score 5/10
