Brain C @RT44398435 Sep 18, 2024 beautiful production and art direction. was it slow? yes. was it bad? no. the costumes, sets, scenery, the way it was filmed...that's enough to keep me entertained. the performers did a good enough job. if you're looking for a bubblegum Hollywood special fx blockbuster, this is not for you.

See more Nicole C @RT86060742 Jul 12, 2021 Slow, boring, a slog to get through. 3 episodes at 1.5 hours apiece and I couldn't even get past the second episode. I'm no stranger to slow-burn and I actually like a lot of shows/movies that fit that description but for some reason I couldn't get interested enough in the characters and plot of this one to finish it. Halfway through the second episode (of 3 total episodes) and nothing of note happened. Sure, there were whisps of hints of things to come. There was foreshadowing (possibly) and small, strange things but nothing that kept my attention or made me want to "see what happens next". I'm angry I wasted the time I did on this. I'll take some people's advice and spend the rest of my time watching the original film instead. Nothing can be duller than watching almost 2 hours of this borefest except maybe watching paint dry.

Yay for the production designers and the location shooting and the gorgeous cast of Nepali and Himalayan background and support. Yay for the truly mind-bending decision to make a show about Anglican nuns going insane in the Himalayas. So weird. I still can't believe someone decided to write a novel about that in the 1930s, but so glad it happened. Sigh for the missed opportunities of a program that didn't commit to a full-on psychological breakdown, OR a full-on haunt, OR a full-on realist drama. OR the fan-service ending that was staring us all in the face and then punted.
