The character-driven miniseries "Rebellion" honors the 100th anniversary of the start of the Easter Uprising in 1916, a defining moment in Irish and British history. Three diverse young women and their families, lovers and friends from Belfast, Dublin and London play vital and conflicting roles in the narrative of Ireland's independence. Some prioritize family loyalties; some are motivated by the noblest of ideals, some by opportunism; others take up arms, prepared to sacrifice everything for the dream of a better society and true independence.

Helen F @RT28725674 02/16/2025 After watching as far as the second episode of the second series on Netflix, I have no idea what is happening and was hoping someone would explain. I heard a theory that Ursula is possibly May. But May/Ursula was supposed to be giving her baby to her lover what's-his-name and his wife, not to the nuns. Impossible to know if the May/Ursula theory is correct as she is played by a different actor. I give up.

I'm so excited that the third season is coming out!! See more 01/15/2022 I thought the cast were excellent and really thought it was as true to the real deal of happenings in Ireland as possible. The cast did a sterling job of characterisation and l would love to see the next season on all tv so people could watch and get a bit of understanding of Irish history See more Read all reviews
