Worm W @Wormwood Sep 17, 2026 If you like the nerdy quantum computing what ifs, then this will satisfy you. And it has Nick Offerman. One of the best character actors around. Worth the watch for any geek. See more Jvda T @RT22393040 Sep 12, 2026 Is the acting by certain people in this show a little sloppy? Yes Does that still take away from one of Alex Garlands best work? No Devs has a grip on you using a concept that seems like a sequel to Ex machina yet brought more to life with amazing imagery and sound. A story that shows us what loss can push people to do and a future we might live in one day.... Big shout-out to the cinematography and music for making this show really stick. See more Alex C @AJC8907 Jul 27, 2026 It thinks it's a lot more clever than it is. It's surface level philosophy (like an intro Wikipedia page about determinism and many worlds theory) with a lot of style to make it feel deeper. The pace is lumbering but there's often something of visual or auditory interest happening, though the direction tends to linger self-indulgently on shots.

And it's not all the writers' fault. By the end of episode 2, they each underwhelm in all scenes to the point of watch-no-more of this show.

In order to cancel out this illusion one shouldn't be aware of what choices they will make in future.

Where it loses the most stars for me was the lead. I don't know if it was poor writing or poor acting on her part, but it really detracted from the show. Her character was extremely flat. And to give the lead actress the benefit of doubt, the thing that got to me most is that everyone talked about how special and intelligent she was, but her lines made her sound dumber than a box of rocks. Everyone else was saving her all the time, she was always the last to figure things out, and didn't seem nearly as resilient as she was supposed to be. This leads me to believe someone just didn't know how to write a strong female lead. Otherwise this series probably would have gotten 4 or 5 stars from me. It wasn't my favourite, but I still enjoyed the concept and Mr. Offerman as always. See more Read all reviews
