The Eclipse (2022)
5/10
Storyline felt non existent.
16 September 2023
From my understanding of the show the creators were trying to send a message about power dynamics and accepting change in the world while showing how someone can be brainwashed into the system without realising. But it sounds better on paper than it did in the series, because it almost felt like the writers did not do anything. The actors might be the face of the project but a good production is built on the shoulders of writing in the most primitive stage.

This show had a good cast, with genuine chemistry and acting ability but the story just didn't seem to take off. There's only so much you can do with long never ending stares without a proper storyline.

Completing it did feel like a task and most of the time I felt uninterested to even know what was happening because the mystery was not created well. Moreover the climax to the stretch also felt underwhelming.

Saddest part is it felt pointless.
