Good start

A good start to the series, character introductions and setting the scene for the evolution of the plague and group of survivors. Very little explained as far as what's going on, a lot has to be assumed.

Entertaining.. or at least trying

It is easy to understand that much of the movies potential is wasted. The cast and acting is great but it quickly becomes evident that the dialogue and lines chosen is really weak, often used to build a relationship that each character has with each other. This could work great if it wasnt already evident. As for the personalities, the show leaves much to be desired. Lastly sound design and cinematic choices like cuts are great. I just hope the story gets better

We Gotta Run!!!!

Warning: Spoilers
Alright! This should be interesting, a Russian show! I love the close up of the infected guy's EYE, and he struggles to get to the water. Then! We have dubbed..but it's okay, dubbed English!!

Sergei, gets to see his son with his EX.....and his EX certainly is not a very happy woman. Looks like a man in the park is infected. I'm assuming this show is about infection judging from the very beginning.

+1 Star for the opening....

They start introducing more characters and their mundane activities. Why is nobody eating the MOOSE??? It's Fresh meat!!! Okay I really like the guy with the funky laugh. His daughter is obviously a piece of work too. Bahaha +1STAR for when boy pilots drone into girl's window. that was skillfull!!!

Oh man when they quarantine the school kids from the 'infected', that was pretty intense.

+1 Star for the video that Polina sends to Drone Boy. Hahahaha

+1 Star for the fight between Polina and the RAPIST WANNABE!!!!

Oh dear the natives are getting restless!!!!!

And the shooting at us cliffhanger at the end??? I thought this was a pretty good opening EP.

Lost potential

Some poorly developed, stereotypical characters that you quickly get tired of, weak dialogues, dragging on of unimportant scenes that don't really add to the story.

Timely
Pegasus-108 October 2020
With the Covid19 pandemic in full swing as this shows up on Netflix, the similarities between fact and fiction are striking. The first episode introduces the main players, but it's hard to care when half of them are disagreeable and would be no loss to the world (the boorish neighbor and his alcoholic daughter for sure.)
