Before I start with the review of season 4 let me tell you
that I don’t know anything about politics and I don’t give a shit about it but
this show makes me want care. If you are one those people who haven’t seen this
show or are looking for a binge watch a show. Then this is the one! Overall
this show has not disappointed me yet. Lets get on with the review.
The Show picks up were the third season left off. Frank is
running for office and faces some interesting opponents along the way. The rift
between frank and Claire underwood is growing. Claire who has her own ambitions
is making moves to put her self in a powerful position. This season kind of
mirrors what is going on in the real world with terrorism. In fact this show is
known to pick stories from real life political figures and it that in this
season too.
The third season was disappointing but this season brings
back all the good stuff that I loved in the first two seasons. Deadpool
breaking the fourth wall is hilarious but frank breaking the fourth wall is
just menacing. Fourth wall breaks, Sudden power moves, manipulation and
backstabbing this season is packed with “The good Stuff” the plot is straight forward
but after the fifth episode it shifts its gear. Underwoods are under fire from
different fronts and this time around it might cause real damage to them. Even
the formidable underwoods might be at risk of losing everything they have
achieved till now.
There are couple of new characters who join the cast this
season. Neve Campbell and Joel Kinnaman. they are very interesting to watch
them. Many unexpected characters from the previous season also return.One of
the things I like about the show is that It respects the audience and does not
treat them like a 12 year old. However, at times the show seems to be wrapped
up in its own maze of plots and sometimes it may also seem like the plot is
leading nowhere like it happened in the third season.
This show is a perfect blend between journalism and Politics.
This season explores how digital marketing, search engine results, videos
online influences public opinion. It is very interesting to see how the
underwoods destroy everything that they come into contact with.
