katish7 Review of Black Summer

Black Summer (2019–2021)

Plain and full of cliches. Some bad acting and unimaginative writing.

[4/10 · 13 April 2019]

I rarely give this low of a rating to anything but after watching 2 first episodes of this I caught myself on a thought that nothing of significance happened while I was fighting the sleep all this time. Every plot turn was predictable and full of cliches to the level of paint by numbers. Oh and don't forget the pretentious shaky cam and turnaround point of view filming techniques as well as division into "chapters" which made no sense. I guess Netflix not only famously greenlights underdeveloped movies now, but also poorly executed series. I used to think that their original series was their strong house.
