Into the Night

I swear these characters' mindsets radiate the same energy as Rise of the planet of the apes. They're like children you just can't like any of them I would kill myself if i was on that plane apocalypse is much better. Could've been 10/10.

Season 1 was intense good with some annoying illogical moral pontification. Season 2 just got absurd with way too much drama and conflicts. Seems many has a death wish screaming for all to end. It's ridiculous to create so much nonsensical conflict when it's possibly the end if the world. Exhausting to rationalize why so many idiots and morons are running the plot. I literally fast forwarded most of Season 2 to shorten my angst for getting through each episode.

Are there plot holes, yes. Can a helicopter pilot fly a commercial airline, no. Can a home health care aide perform surgery, of course not. Is it enjoyable to watch and am I engaged and care about the characters? Yes. This is not for the "Must be 100% accurate, or it's trash"! critics viewing from Mom's basement. Suspend your disbelief and just enjoy a nice Friday/Saturday night on the couch movie. The episodes fly by because I'm entertained (and they're short- 38 minutes-ish) and I have no desire to multi-task with a phone game or whatnot.

Full disclosure, I watched in French because I can speak French (it's not entirely in French though) and subtitles don't bother me. I don't know how the English dub sounds, but that always destroys a movie for me when the audio isn't matching the actor's lips. Plus, the dubbed script never quite matches the real nuances of what's really being said.

Season 1 was strong! There was mystery, action and it keept the audience engaging.

Then Season 2 came and the expectations remained high, only to crash to the grounds. The second season does supply the viewers with even a tiny bit more understanding of the general story, the characters once intriguing and entertaining - are now reduced to half-brained children. They just keep and keep on fighting with each other, nobody get's along, no progress whatsever.

It's a shame since I really liked the series, but I can not lie - I doubt how the producers are going to save this mess.

I love Apocalyptic shows or movies; especially one without zombies and monsters. Give them a more grounded and realistic approach. The threat is real and the plan is also not bad. Actually with much more budget and good writing it would have been an awesome series. Netflix have been doing a good job with international shows with Money Heist, The Kingdom(Korean) and Dark(German). I hope this show get some recognition because I am looking forward to season 2 despite its flaws.
