    I like post-apocalyptic movies from time to time and that short series was really nice choice with some fine shots of a part of the city shrouded in tarps covering buildings, as well as monstrous venring systems and military zones. Some scenes were too much like from a crazy drug-user nightmare but I guess it was meant to be like that. I have a low tolerance for spinning or flashing images so that was only my personal problem that left me with a slight head-ache :) The story is well told, with a pretty decent explanation of everything, so there is no feeling of a "what?!" at the end. Acting also left nothing more to wish for, it was good.

    Poor dialogue, poor acting and poor delivery. The characters are two- dimensional and clichéd, the script lacks drive and focus and the overall plot lacks structure. Score sounds like a teenagers wannabe indy list, fails to set, move or enable the plot or camera-work.Plus points, good camera-work and effects, decent production values, and I think the director did his best with what he had to work with.This is not a TV show that will go at the top of anyone's CV...

    I just wanted to say that this was very good. I don't mind waiting. I write this to plead with producers to pick this up and make more of it. It is certainly better than a lot of the stuff out there in the last year. I know this is from 2015. I still think it is better than a lot of what has been happening from Netflix and Amazon lately. Come on, keep the story going. If not, thanks for the show anyway. Cool concept.

    I have seen this series a few times now and would whole heartedly recommend it for anyone interested in a exciting TV series with interesting characters including Jennifer (played by Game of Thrones star Natalia Tena) and helmed with style by director Alex Garcia (misfits, Utopia). It's superbly shot with great scale and is a step above recent UK TV releases. The mystery starts with a bang and the action doesn't let up from there. Amidst the chaos lie ethereal entities that could be tricks of the mind. Conflicts and corruption perforate every inch of the world and are a symptom of a society hurtling out of control. It's in this uncertainty that our protagonists are searching for the truth which could take them to the brink! I won't say any more but suffice it to say I can't wait for the 2nd season!
