Equinox

I wasn't expecting much due to the reviews but someone mentioned Midsommar in his comments so I decided to give it a go.

I was pleasantly surprised. I'd say it's a 6.7 out of 10.

I don't get the comparisons with Dark, not related at all. Equinox is way better than Dark's 2nd season anyway.

Up to you, I decided to give it a go despite the bad reviews and I'm glad I did.

I give it a 6 solely on the first 4 episodes, which were generally interesting. Downhill from there with a terrible wrap-up, although I pretty much had guessed where it was heading. Lots of unanswered questions that I won't bother to mention, bc that would just be more wasteful time.

I had high hopes for this tv show because I like moody Scandinavian shows and also quite fond of Celtic culture. It started off rather good - there was the slow burn and that gloomy atmosphere I was hoping to see. However, aside from the atmosphere the show failed to deliver a logical story and badly lacked any explanation of the events. The ending felt like it was done last minute. It left me with soooo many questions - there were no answers to literally anything, so none of the story makes any sense to me. If they ever make season 2 - I'm not going to watch it.

I liked the atmospheric, moodiness and artistic cinematography of the cult scenes. But the story does become convoluted with scenes that don't add anything to the story. The show has its slow areas that tested my patience too. But nevertheless I enjoyed the show. But had they edited out some stuff, i would have given it a 7, maybe an 8.

I had high expectations for the series as it had been described as "The Danish Dark" in some reviews and I loved Dark. It actually started pretty good with an interesting mystery peppered with meaningful flashbacks. However, it seems like the writers run out of creative steam in episode 3 or 4 and it went fast on a downward slope to the point I seriously considered not watching anymore. However, my curiosity was more powerful and, at the end, it did not disappoint as much as I thought when the conclusion was reached. If you say you stopped watching, I can't blame you, but give it a try.
