I wish more people would watch Dark. Horrendously underrated.

  Dark was infuriating to watch. Visually stunning, great characters and performances, but ultimately an intentionally obfuscated and meandering story that only ends up disappointing you. It's kind of similar to Westworld season 1 or Lost -- there's this style of storytelling where you drop a bunch of interesting clues to lead you towards possible theories about whats really going on, and then all of those threads are dropped on the floor as if they never mattered. I find it abusive and disrespectful to the viewer.

    I think the first 2 seasons of world building was great in Dark, but unfortunately very few people are able to close such complex series well. The notable exceptions being Vince gilligan for BB and hopefully BCS, and the Americans team.

  Unfortunately the dub for this one just wasn’t good enough to keep my attention. It constantly failed to match the expected tone of the scene to the degree that it pulled me out of the story and I shelved it. I, like a majority of Netflix subscribers, don’t enjoy movies with subtitles as it also destroys the immersion to be constantly reading. No doubt this is at least one of the primary drivers for its low penetration into the English zeitgeist.
