Black Summer: The Cold (2021)
Worst Shootout Scene I've Witnessed
This show does have some very good parts, but this is definitely not one of them. In the snowy forest shootout in this episode, it is literally just two confused groups of people standing still about 15 feet apart, shooting at each other, missing, waiting 5 seconds, and then shooting and missing again. It is honestly difficult to even keep track of what the groups of people are and what is supposed to be happening. It introduces a lot of new characters, and some of it is explained later in the season, but you are still left with a lot of questions that recur throughout the season:
"Who are these people?"
"Who are these other group of people?"
"Why are they shooting each other?"
"What is anyone's motivation for anything?"
My takeaway is that in this show's world, strangers basically shoot each other on sight at all times for no reason, and no one cooperates with anyone else except generic gang members shooting other generic gang members.
