Mr R @Russellowen Feb 22 In it's original Japanese language the film probably made a lot of sense and caught the nuances of the acting. However, the dubbing into American accents is absolutely ridiculous and makes a mockery of the film. The acting is also ridiculously over-the-top. See more Nikki R @RT79108190 Sep 3 Deeply compelling narrative filming based on true events surrounding the Fukushima nuclear power disaster in 2011 (the worst since Chernobyl, with both being categorized by scientists as reaching the highest level of danger). Outstanding not only for the almost unbearable mounting pressure across the eight episodes; but also for the eye-opening portrayals of the existential dangers of nuclear power (let alone nuclear weapons). A real must-see that could actually prevent unimaginable disaster. See more Ampleen S @RT40233022 Jun 23 The Days is an absolute must-see, especially for younger generations who may not fully remember or grasp the scale of the Fukushima nuclear disaster. The series offers a sobering and powerful retelling of the catastrophic chain of events — a devastating earthquake, followed by a massive tsunami, that ultimately led to one of the most severe nuclear crises in history. What makes The Days particularly compelling is its ability to portray not just the technical failure, but the profound human struggle behind it. The series serves as a stark reminder of how even our most sophisticated innovations can spiral beyond human control, forcing us to confront the complex risks that come with our pursuit of progress — especially in today’s electrified, energy-hungry AI world. The acting is excellent: restrained, deeply sincere, and respectful of the gravity of the real-life tragedy. Without dramatizing for effect, the performances convey the quiet courage and humanity of those who faced unimaginable decisions under extreme pressure.

Given it's supposed to be a docudrama, this completely ruins the immersion from the off. The script is clunky, the effects poor, the acting just so-so. A wasted opportunity all round.
