Featured review
This is a remarkable (first) series, which takes on a journey of suspicion, disaster, tragedy and terror. The first episode didn't exactly captivate me, but by episode three I was obsessed, and subsequently had to binge watch the whole series.
There is a curiosity to this series, I've read people compare it with several things, and I agree with some, Taboo definitely being one, the tone, and bizarre series events made me think of Fortitude, don't get me wrong it's a totally different style, but the whole sense of mystery and intrigue is similar.
It's Ridley Scott, so of course there's the element of terror that rears its head around about episode three. There is so much more to it though, the human element is ever present, you will see hatred, jealousy, love and strength, all manner of emotions are present.
The cinematography is incredible, it looks better than many films, and has terrific music.
First rate acting, it's hard to highlight a specific, as everyone plays their part, however, Jared Harris and Adam Nagaitis stand out.
It is hugely atmospheric, it's one of those that will keep you in suspense, you won't know which direction it will take you, just expect the unexpected to happen.
I loved it, 9/10.
