Stateless - My View: Not a review

Series Name: STATELESS

Number of Episodes: 6

Language: English (mostly)

OTT: Netflix


My View:

Brilliant is an understatement for this emotional series based on the true event. I will definitely go with full points for this. Be it the 2 Tamil guys on the roof, The Afghan and Iraq family and detainees, you could feel their pain throughout. 

I have to start with the fact that this is not written to be a docu-drama, rather the screenplay and the characterization of every characters in this series have lived the life of the original people. One of of the most gripping drama series which I have watched in the recent times. The series is about the life of the refugees in the Australian detention center, who is seeking for Asylum and visa for a better life. 

The writers did an excellent job in carrying out the emotions that both the officers and the people who were impacted, which reemphasize the fact all humans are good and they wanted to do good, but circumstances and scenario make them to deviate from the default good character.

The final episode and the final few minutes are too emotional and also its an eye opening on what all the families under various scenarios across the world had to go through and take the tough decision of leaving their country.

MUST WATCH --->  100/100

Ragnarok Season 1 - My view ( not a review)

Series Name: Ragnarok - Season 1

Language: Norwegian 

OTT: Netflix

My view:

My first Norwegian movie/series, and glad I watched it. It's brilliant on its own. I would say the Genre is a mix of Feel Good, Action , thriller and few more which I wouldn't reveal much. The most awesome of all is the location and every long shot in the screenplay is a wallpaper. The lead actor's gethu and attitude is just brilliant and they way he carried over the the first season is amazing. The first season is 6 episodes and its a good one to start and complete in a weekend.

I would go with 90/100 for this series first season and my reduction is something related to not believing in few aspects compared to reality. The reduction points reason is not a show stopper for sure, but I just felt it.
