Jul 26, 2023Good movie to explain the animosity between the Brits and the Irish back then and how the revolution seriously started for Ireland to gain their independence. It is worthwhile to watch but not enjoyable to see.
-
Jan 22, 2023I don't know if it is historical accurate, but I liked how the story goes. Characters are alive, with bad and good, understandable in such circumstances. The uprising seemed rushed and insufficiently prepared and it leaves spectator wondering if use of violence was justified by freedom desire. Good image and good acting.

Oct 30, 2022I just finished watching the first season and will need to take a break before starting the second. I am very aware of the history of this period, due to my research into my Irish heritage and I must say, knowing the facts and seeing them portrayed in this series is very different. The acting is amazing, but for me, the intensity of emotions raised for me, surprised me. There were so many moments when It was quite overwhelming and when a movie or TV show can do that with history - that is a work of art.
-
Oct 27, 2022Fantastic show depicting the plight of the oppressed Irish and the torture and murder of Good people in the name of British occupation of foreign lands. Another stain of British control across the world. Long live untied Ireland 🇮🇪
-
Jan 19, 2022I love shows based on historical events, so this was a must see for me. The characters are great and it really moves. I love the glimpse in to 1916 Ireland.

Dec 20, 2021This was a fantastic story from the intimate perspective of individuals. Hiw it was actually done. Wow. Could watch again and again.

Jun 08, 2021Fabulous television.
-
Dec 28, 2020The first season especially is a really good way of depicting the various facets of the rebellion while showing the chaos and confusion throughout Dublin. I would have liked to see a little more politics, especially from Connolly, but thats the only reason I am giving this 4.5 stars rather than 5 starts I would give a film like The Wind That Shakes the Barley.

Mar 10, 2019I watched the first 5 episodes with a friend. I think it is one of the few shows that I want the "good guys" to be executed. The characters on the Irish side are totally unlikeable and in fact, make me root for their capture by the English. Because the writers and Irish characters have become more unlikeable with each episode, I'm at the point where I refuse to watch anymore, unless I know they're going to be killed by the English! That's quite a statement for me to make! Don't waste your time! You'll only end up frustrated!

Mar 03, 2019Binge worthy. Enjoy learning the history of Ireland during the early 20th century. A bit of a clunky transition between Season 1 and Season 2.
