Feel; don't think.
ranchi8 June 2018
If this was any other show, I'd be outraged. The plot has holes all along, and everything BPO-wise feels rushed, poor written and with deus ex machina everywhere.

But, then again, this isn't just any other show. And, to be fair, I don't care about BPO, its evil plan or whatever, and how the sensates fight it. I really didn't follow most of it, and missed many of the logistics behind stopping the bad guys. But I didn't rewind to understand, because I couldn't care less about the good guys-bad guys relationship. The only relationships I care about are the good guys-good guys ones.

The emotion, the love, the connection they all have are the core of the show. That's what I cared about. The emotional, not the rational. The last 25 minutes are amazing. They summed up what the series has been about: inclusion, acceptance and togetherness. And the creators' knew that. And they gave us what they knew we wanted, why we loved it. The 151 (151!) minute finale delivered.

Thank you for making bold shows that give visibility to minorities. Representation matters more than I can say. Thank you. Gracias. Danke. (IMDb won't allow me to use Hindi and Korean characters, but you see where I'm going with this).

Loved it and below you will understand why
laucha-6562911 June 2018
Rushed? Yes Hard to follow? Yes But when you know the show was cancelled and this FINALE was thanks to the world-cluster. Then you dont care much about the storyline. You dont judge. You just WATCH. You just TRY to understand. You just LOVE. You just SMILE and then you realize that this is the END. I was Happy because this was truly made for the fans. They had to wrap-up things in a way they didnt want to. I even was hoping for a Sensetes World fight against BPO.. Like all clusters jumping in to be united and fight back... But I understand the position they were.. So I am THANKFUL to have lived this mind blowing revolutionary sci-fi show.

Spread love. Be Thankful. Dont be that judgemental over a cancelled show.

DESERVE A SEASON 3
aimanjufrey8 June 2018
This episode will bring and delve you deeper in the minds of the sensates especially Wolfgang's, and helps you to somehow connects more with all of them. I like how they try to compact everything into a 2 hours duration and successfully satisfy my quench for the finale.

I love how they knew which part to cut but also didnt forget to hint that even though the part was cut, it is still important and mended it well with the key stories. Obsess on how they introduced and brought back the characters from before smoothly and still left us enough to wonder about the possibility of season3, but still able to bear in mind that this might be the finale and made I have some peace with this episode.

This story can be well expanded more and still connects the dot starting from this episode and I love that. I believe Lana and the rest of the crews are still not giving up and believe in the power of fans because I think they made this so well intricate to give us a hint that they are still so many questions left unanswered deserving a place of discovery and adventure for us fans.

Seriously, all of you have to watch it.

Love Conquers All.
ilklucg2348 June 2018
This was a perfect season 2 finale. All the characters interacting with each other, as always, all the story lines being wrapped-up, all the callbacks to even the first episode of season 1, it was amazing. There were a few times where it felt a bit rushed, but that was to be expected. For what they had, they really created a perfect episode. Amor Vincit Omnia. Love Conquers All. This show really proved it. As long as we are together, there is nothing we can't do. And I will be forever grateful for what this show taught me.

Thank you netflix
samfiragabriel9 June 2018
For giving the fans closure. And thank you Wachowski sisters. Would have loved to see another season of the show, but I am happy we got a proper ending non the less. Amazing story, amazing actors, amazing team, and an epic series!

OMG! AM I ALIVE? ! IS THERE ANYBODY WATCHED IN 2020. UNBELIEVABLE!!!
thekhpro13 August 2020
I'd predicted completely different thing from the last episode. All the questions in my head were 'Who's gonna die at the end' and 'How could it be not boring being too long' But both questions were miserable 'coz it was all about not only watching but feeling too. I didn't expect such a universality from USA. But I was still wrong. For the people who are at doubt whether it's worth watching or not, I recommend 200%. Though it requires little patience in the beginning, you'll end it being amazed at the end. It's not a just good tv-show. It's just a inspirational, legendary, never-getting-old masterpiece.

Literally there are no words! My heart is full of emotion and my head is spinning!!! Beautifully brought the story together l, answered all our questions, and left me with a sense of family. I'm still hopeful this show can continue on some how... it's too important to end yet! Sensate for life!!!

The most amazing work of art in existence!
jashan-498658 June 2018
I'm serious. Of course, it's not just this episode. It's the whole show. If you haven't watched it: Start now, with season 1, epsisode 1, and do it all. This is a truly mind blowing experience that will elevate you!

Simply imagine watching The Matrix the first time, when it came out. Now multiply that by 1000, and you're not even close. Seriously. The Wachowskis and friends may have created the most amazing work of art in existence. Who would have thought that to be a TV show. Certainly I wouldn't. I hate TV shows. In general, I think it's a complete waste of way too much time. But not with sense8.

The only word of caution: Don't spoil the experience by skipping right to the last episode of season 2. Watch the whole show.

I don't want to spoil anything - but there are a few things I didn't like. The show starts a little "spooky" - that's only the tone in the first one or two episodes. Also, there are a few pretty intensely brutal scenes. If you are sensitive, you might want to skip those. However, they are an important part of the story and make sense from that perspective, so if you can handle it, you should.

I sincerely believe that this show can create a ripple in the collective consciousness of our human species - an elevating wave that is desperately needed. Watch it, feel it, let it inspire you. It is fiction ... but then ... good fiction is really just a good story around truth; just like life.

Love conquers everything!
prabhnanak8 June 2018
Warning: Spoilers
What a beautiful finale. Seeing all the sensates together at the end made me tearful. This finale made an important point that feelings don't see reason and so the differences between us should be celebrated! I especially loved the threesome betwen Kala, Wolfie and Rajan. I want a season three..

A bit rushed
garabedian12318 June 2018
Warning: Spoilers
I still really enjoyed the series as a whole. However it does have some big problems. So the whole time we were wondering what the whole conspiracy was. Why is there a war between the sense8 factions. And it ends up being about one person trying to become immortal? It didn't quite fit and felt very rushed. And that this same guy killed all his other sense8s..BUT WHY? I dont think it was ever explained. ....

The biggest flaw of this last "episode" was that the rules of the universe changed....WTF Where as before a sense8 could both focus on their real life tasks and at the same time be in someone elses head fighting some baddies...Now whenever that happens the person just stops frozen in place. How could they let this happen. Whats worse is that this does not happen while driving or while their attention might actually get them killed...no. It only happens when they are walking and not holding anything dangerous....WTF again ... The last 30 minutes is a boring wedding and more boring orgy sex

Rushed, predictable but still enjoyable
marceloraphael14 June 2018
Overall, the last episode was really condensed. There were too many things happening all at once and I guess its understandable since there wont be a season 3 anymore. In the end, the focus of the story was simply the relationships they had as a cluster and there wasn't anything more important than the fact that they will go at any lengths to help each other. It wasn't the same as the previous episodes where it was more in depth and more provocative but as an average viewer it was fairly okay okay.

Generic 2.5 hours.
buickman-2024528 April 2021
Chase scenes and gun fights with unlimited bullets that always hit the bad guys and miss the good guys. There, I saved you 2.5 hours of your life.

A means to an org-- end.
walliboy23 September 2018
Warning: Spoilers
The orgy sequences are more essential than you think and i am so happy that the show ended on that note. The show's top priority has always been to bond with the sense8s and it did. I cared for them - I hated them - I loved them - I cried for them - I had orgasm(s) for them.

Yes the ending was very cheesy (no, not the very end but uknow... That part where it went *BOOM*) - But i couldn't care less. What this show has built is too damn strong to be dismissed by small flaws such as execution of saving the day...

I'm glad the show ended on a high note, rather than being yet a cash-grab with no soul. This show could represent the LGBTQ+ community, different ethnicities, cops/military - It is a show that shows us that strength come in too many variations to count. It is empowering. And that's why i love the orgy scenes so much. Sense8 wouldn't BE Sense8 without orgies. It is pure art and i pity those who don't understand that.

If people believe such art is: perversian, pornographic, satanic, primitive... Then let em' - Those traits I love <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Fitting Finale
kushal_jinju8 June 2018
Things could have been different if only the makers had a chance to film one more season. 2h:30m is what they had and boy they make you emotional all the way.

Yes, it feels silly at few places. I felt rushed at few places.Everything falls in place for the cluster in this episode.But the flavour is all there. You will relate to each and every character in the plot.

Maybe that's the only way it could have ended, or maybe not. All I can say is "Amor Vincit Omnia", "Love Conquers All" in English. At the end of it you feel loved. I could have easily kissed my girl right after finishing it but she is out of town.

A fitting end to an emotionally captivating show, shame on those that wouldn't renew for a full third season.

Good moments...
sanchezghp9 June 2018
... But too rushed. Too much dialogs. Too much of everything. Too much sap at the end. They obviously had to pack everything in there, and it wasn't easy to follow (or even believe in the story anymore). I am grateful they made a final episode for the fans, but it makes me regretting an extra season even more. The series was brilliant overall and I will miss this bunch a lot.

One of the best finales
lovellallen18 June 2018
I have never seen an end to a series and been satisfied. It has been a beautiful show about inclusiveness shot literally across the world and the beauty that is the world in which we live. This rushed finale is not without its flaws but it was made for us, it attempted to give us so much about what we loved about the show and why we loved the show.

You can forgive all holes and getting lost in it all because you hope in the amazement of it all, and in its teaching somehow somewhere we get another season.

With the time restraints, with all that this show is and has become they couldn't have done a better job! So bitter sweet I say thank you for the experience.

turning head off / turning heart on
WHBower8 June 2018
I just got home from the Sense8 Finale. For much of the film, my brain was judging it harshly. But the love could not be denied. My heart and eyes filled, and now I don't know what to do with myself.

Just watch it for the love, and forgive the rest. It really could've been a third season.

Ugh. What an ending!
inzol13 August 2018
This took the worst of Sense8 and magnified its flaws perfectly.

There was so much promise to the concept, and the scale of the production and characters had so much depth. Season 2 broadly killed that off and this finale completely marginalised the lead characters, turning them into 2D versions of themselves. The episode itself ends so awfully slowly (the montages generally added nothing to the storyline or to the characters throughout both series) that I was left with a terribly sour note in my mouth. I invested hours of the last few weeks in this!

Sigh.

It just could have been SO good with better scriptwriting, better production and better forethought. The actors were seriously undersold.

The Best Season Finale Ever Made
officialgiovannimc21 June 2018
You can't get a better Season or Series Finale like this one. And I'm so sad to see this show go. Even today I'm still pushing this show.

This is the first IMDB comment I've ever written and I have to, because of how amazing this finale was.
