Movie Reviews of Dexter - The Complete Second Season
Movie Review: Momentum
Summary: 5 Stars
After Dexter's first excellent season, I wondered if the show could possibly continue the fascinating, thrilling momentum of the series while offering up new storylines. But the second season starts off with a bang when Dexter's underwater graveyard of victims is discovered, and all of a sudden the Miami PD and FBI are all hot on the trails of a new serial killer ... him. Dexter's manueverings to avoid being caught occupy much of the season's plotlines, but the rest of his energies are focused on the women in his life. While sister Deb and Rita both find themselves growing out of their roles as victims and taking more control of their lives, Dexter becomes involved with a dark, dangerous woman named Lila. Once again, Dexter finds himself torn between a his deceitful "normal" relationships and a more authentic, yet completely destructive one.
All in all the show delivers a second stellar season, and I'm left wondering ... what can they possibly do next?
Movie Review: Dexter is Delectable
Summary: 5 Stars
This sounded like a gorier CSI with an implausible plot, but it is nothing of the sort. The characters are fascinating, the casting is just incredible. You're rooting for and against characters all the time. Dexter himself is so fascinating, it's so cool seeing all of his layers. We can't get enough of Dexter.Movie Review: A nice, clean monster.

Remember the days when HBO shows kicked arse? Whether it was AL SWEARENGEN ruling the roost of THE GEM, or TITUS PULLO skewering some poor plebe, or even BEN HAWKINS touching someone back to life. Well, we all know those days are sadly gone, but thanks to some gutsy, creative thinking on SHOWTIME's part we have DEXTER MORGAN. Take either one - season one's ICE TRUCK KILLER, or season two's BAY HARBOR BUTCHER, and you have what is (fact, not opinion) one of the best shows ever aired. Every TV series you've ever seen has had a quandary about the second season equaling the first. This one don't. Both seasons are on par Fan-friggin-tastic. MICHAEL C HALL (pulling a 180 from his superb character of DAVID FISHER from the superb SIX FEET UNDER) plays the best television character possibly ever. Hey, the guy likes to chop people (albeit, bad people) up into little pieces, but YOU LOVE HIM, that makes for compelling viewing any day of the week. Best show on the tube right now, HANDS DOWN. Can't wait for season 3!Movie Review: DEXTER - Season 2
Summary: 5 Stars
Dexter - Season 1 got me hooked. Dexter - Season 2 just makes me want more! Season 2's story line was even better than Season 1's. Now I can't wait for Season 3 to start later this year!Movie Review: Compulsive and addictive viewing pleasure
Summary: 5 Stars
Who knew that a show with a serial killer as the protagonist could ever be so good? The second season of Showtime's Dexter not only improves on an excellent debut season, but blows it out of the water. As the second season opens, Dexter (Michael C. Hall) has some problems. Doakes (Erik King) knows something is suspicious with him and is keeping on his trail, making Dexter's ritual of killing bad people even harder than ever to get away with. Making matters worse is the discovery of Dexter's dumping spot in the ocean, which leads to Agent Lundy (Keith Carradine) coming on the scene. Not to mention that Dexter's relationship with Rita (Julie Benz) is very much on the rocks, especially when he meets a woman named Lila (Jamie Murray) who is much more akin to Dexter's persona. In the meantime, Dexter's sister Debra (Jennifer Carpenter) has become a changed person since her experience with the Ice Truck Killer, and when revelations about their father Harry's (James Remar) past come to light, Dexter begins to question everything there is about himself, including the code that Harry instilled in him. Loaded with some inventive twists and turns, the second season of Dexter is some of the absolute best premium TV you will ever see, and certainly the best thing to ever grace Showtime. All in all, if you've been missing out on Dexter thus far, you have been missing out on quite a bit, and this is one series that definitely deserves your time and attention.
