I genuinely can not think of anything within the realm of possibility that is scarier than the concept for this film. The idea of being trapped in your own body without any of your senses, and being denied all chances of escape is such a horrifying concept that, while the novel on which this movie is based is my favorite book, I can not recommend watching this movie more than once, although I think that's the point. I do not enjoy watching this movie or reading the book, but I don't think you're supposed to, it's meant to be repulsive, it's meant to make you feel uncomfortable, that's what makes it the only real anti-war story in my eyes. Other anti-war stories, while the creator may be anti-war, are still meant to be entertaining, and pro-war people can still find those stories exciting, while I would be concerned about any person who finds Johnny Got His Gun even the slightest bit entertaining. I honestly can not recommend that anyone watches this movie.

Went downhill fast

Season 1 was incredible. Season 2 after was passable, but not nearly as good. But season 3 however, it almost feels like a parody, everything about it is just off and it so blatantly misses what made the first season great.
