The various dynamics within the Hunters are a strength that is not overshadowed or outweighed by the over-the-top aesthetic. How sensational (or tasteful) audiences find the events depicted will vary, but “Hunters” has found a way to dial into hit squad theatrics of its alt-history landscape and address the deep scars that still reverberate.
Although Season 2 is uneven and disjointed, the moments that work really work, with the final episode providing a pretty near-perfect ending.

I enjoyed a lot this new season. I'm not reviewing this show as an expert, because I'm not.
This show had enough elements to make you watch it till the end.
It takes the time to explain details about the past and the current situations of the characters, being two characters development a little inconsistent.
The new characters are wonderful and you will want them to be on screenplay for a good amount of time.
It has great and strong scenes that are well achieved.
A lot of critic says that for moments the sequences are disorganized, but I didn't feel them as a complication for the plot development.
It's charged with great action sequences and accompanied with the right music choice.
I don't know why is not receiving a little more of the credit that it deserves in my humble opinion.

SEASON 2
Weil laces his drama with relevant debates about the morality of vigilantism, yet it’s all a put-on. Hunters is, at heart, a wild, colorful, violent wish-fulfillment saga. ... Hunters falters slightly, not because it doesn’t convincingly follow-through on its act of imagination but because it fails to wrestle with the underlying unjustness of such a procedure in the first place.
Despite the many narrative flaws that are sprinkled throughout, the destination at which their journeys all arrive actually makes for a rather fitting finale.
The two-season globetrotting curio ends its short-lived existence by never truly managing to maximize the boundless potential of its own premise.
Hunters has its moments. Most of them involve Pacino, seemingly incapable of being unwatchable, even when the dialogue he is given tries its best. In this case, Amazon has cut down a programme at just the right time.
To its credit, season two streamlines things in some ways, even as it grows clunkier in others.
[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]
