This show got me hooked from the very first episode because all the characters, locations, sets and costumes looked real. The directors did a fantastic job to capture the most believable visuals from the 1700s ever. The actors also immersed themselves in their characters. Nomzamo as Queen Nandi was a perfect casing choice. Bomb Productions has been telling the most authentic South African stories for decades, I wouldn't have chosen any other production company to handle such a monumental story. I wish there was en effort to market this show overseas, I think the international viewers will appreciate the authentic story telling and careful threading of History and Fiction. All I can say is that this is a worthwhile watch, I never really watch series and this one grabbed my attention from the very first episode till the last.

I really enjoyed this movie because I didn't go into it with any expectations or previews. I just went in open minded and ended up liking all the characters and the story. Yeah the setting and the themes are reminiscent of Star-Wars, but Zack executed it in a new way.

I really hope that Netflix gets the outcome that they expect out of this so they can make more than just two parts. I am looking forward to the second part. Key take aspects that made me like this movie were the characters, setting, Visuals, and the story...

A lot of people are just following their circles and are afraid of being ridiculed for enjoying this film. If you go into it open minded you will enjoy it, but if you are a Star-Wars fanboy you may not like it.
