This show requires your undivided attention
Such a lens would be incapable of focusing on close-in subjects such as selfies with Sasha or in the bedroom with Catherine.. I rarely leave reviews, but after seeing some of the baffling negative ones here, I had to share my thoughts.
The direction is outstanding, with Alfonso Cuarón’s signature style evident throughout
If you’re looking for something to have on in the background while scrolling through your phone, this is not the show for you. His use of long, immersive shots combined with stellar performances from the cast, excellent sound design, and stunning cinematography makes for an incredible viewing experience.
It seems that some viewers may not have the patience or focus to follow the plot
Episode 1 throws you right into the action without much exposition, but if you pay close attention to the dialogue and just watch the show, things will start to fall into place. If you’re still confused, Episode 2 will help to clarify some things So far, this show has been fantastic.
