The Island (2020–2024)
3/10
Annoying
26 August 2020
Warning: Spoilers
The first six episodes where quite okay, the last two merely annoying, in fact very much so. Interestingly, this series were filmed in November 2019, just before Corona. Some of what happened a few months later in reality they got quite right. Two things I did find really irksome: (1) The last few episodes play into the hands of conspiracy theorists. The good guys survive cause they disobey the measures introduced by the authorities. (2) In the end the film becomes far too unrealistic: Bundeswehr soldiers searching a house do not detect the four children crouched under a table! Wait a sec! That's just one example of many similar extreme improbabilities. I liked the first five or six episodes somehow, yet after having watched all eight I wish I would have spent these eight hours better.
