Death of a Nation (2018)
Doesn't the cover image tell you all you need to know?
Yep it does if you're vertical and above ground, and the feature actually sucks worse than the Lincoln/Trump image, moreover numbnuts performs his own voiceover as they couldn't afford a professional.
Pachinko (2022)
Read the book!
Adaptations of books to screen can be difficult, and Pachinko promised to be a challenge, but really? Multi generational story told through the lenses of one nation subjucating another, subplots notwithstanding. Actually quite a good and compelling read, yet this adaptation/storyline meandered all over the landscape. With good production values, and a very good cast in spots, the writing for screen simply missed and in to many areas. The entire chapter seven dedicated to a backstory for Hansu was bewildering, a back story that did not exist in the book, nor did said expansion of Hansu bridge or expound with any relevance to the underling thrust of the book.
Sooooo, read the book and don't bother with Apple's latest, or.........who read's anyway, books are so passe'. Just watch this eight episode adaptation without bothering with the book, enjoy and maybe learn a bit.
