Starts like Doctor Who by way of Renaissance Florence — young, cocky Leonardo invents a portable diving suit before breakfast and talks faster than Machiavelli schemes. The production is glossy, the violence is gritty, and the history is hilariously bent. Dialogue tries for clever but sometimes lands on try-hard. Still, the episode’s energy is undeniable: it’s less a historical drama and more a punk-rock origin story for a genius action hero. If you can forgive the apostrophe crime in the title, you might enjoy the swagger.

If you’re asking me to imagine what a sharp, concise review of Da Vinci’s Demons Season 1, Episode 1 (“The Hanged Man”) might look like, here’s one in that spirit:
