Splinter Cell: Deathwatch Season 1 Review by Ryan Balkwill

Plot: In the shadowy world of espionage, Sam Fisher is a rumor and a legend; pulled back into action, he must help a new recruit unravel a global conspiracy.

Season 1 of Splinter Cell: Deathwatch was Good.

Pros: I was okay going into this knowing nothing about splinter cell before watching this. The animation style does remind me of Marvel’s Hit-monkey. All of the voice acting was so good. The action is engaging and intense. It’s plotline is layed / focus but simple to follow and full of twist and turns I didn’t expect.

Cons: Zinnia sadly didn’t work for me with no developed. The action fell to hook me at times & It didn’t explain how there Sam’s complicated history with the organisation his works for or many of more of the plot holes.
