Boring. I lasted about 14 minutes and had to slap myself awake. The movie consists of a series of still photos that the camera pans across excruciatingly slowly while the narrator speaks short sentences with long pauses.
The narrator is Tilda Swinton. Despite her wonderful voice, the combination of pauses and pictures is stultifying.
The pictures are of WWII monuments and memorials in Eastern Europe. What they have to do with a science fiction story of the rise and fall of the human race over two billion years is beyond me.
The narrative is apparently a verbatim recitation of the last chapter of the book The Last and First Men written by Olaf Stapledon in 1930.
Read the book. It'll take you longer but you'll get more out of it.
Avoid this movie. It's rubbish.

A little slow in a few places, which gets an 8 from me, but one can almost overlook that when the good stuff starts happening.
A word of warning. There are 7 episodes. As of tonight August 25, only 6 have played on Amazon Prime. Prime doesn't tell you there are 7.. If you haven't started yet I suggest you wait until the 31st and binge all 7 because number 6 is a real cliffhanger.
I was looking for something that wasn't cookie cutter detective mysteries and was hooked by Prime's description: "After losing her parents to a mysterious fire, nine-year-old Alice Hart is raised by her grandmother June on a flower farm where she learns there are secrets within secrets. But years on, an unearthed betrayal sees Alice forced to face her past."
Sounded like one of those gothic mysteries in the tradition of Du Maurier's Rebecca and Bronte's Jane Eyre. Well, it sorta is, but with modern issues.
The acting is great, the cast superb, the scenery gorgeous, and the story line disturbing, but necessary.
Sigourney Weaver plays against type in her character June Hart, a manipulative, controlling matriarch, who unsympathetically tries to hold her "family" together, often to their detriment.
I'm writing generalities. Others have been more specific.
See it.

This movie is like a train wreck. You can't help slowing down and staring at it until it fades off into the distance.
In my book of the worst movies ever made this one just pushed Plan 9 From Outer Space out of first place.
So why am I giving it 10 stars? Because it's a hoot, that's why. And I love Plan 9 From Outer Space, too.
The action is filmed in a quasi-documentary style reminiscent of the Blair Witch Project. Shaky camera work, ordinary people moving the story along.
The movie contains tropes from other genres. Like the prison road gang scene.
The news reporting throughout the movie harks back to the Orson Welles War of the Worlds broadcast.
Turn off your brain and watch it for fun.
Now that Amazon Prime Video is airing it, it's likely to also become a cult classic.
