The Days (2023)
7/10
Riveting and frustrating all at once
11 June 2023
Warning: Spoilers
The series kept me interested just enough to continue with all eight episodes but it also kept me yelling at my TV whenever the characters gawked, moved slowly, stared aimlessly, walked instead of ran, paused for no reason, and um'ed and uh'ed whenever they were asked a question. I was going out of my mind at the sheer stupidity. Oh, there's a giant tsunami wave coming? Let's stare at it for a really really long time. We're standing in a heavily radioactive area, let's walk out of the area. I think we were meant to feel this sense of frustration because of how absolutely bumbling the entire process was surrounding Fukushima. That or Director, Tsai Ming-liang is really terrible at pacing.
