La señal

For any sci-fi + mystery movie it's difficult to write a review without revealing elements of the story, therefore I will trying to be as generic as possible in my review. Let's start first with the good qualities of this very short series: 1) it's short therefore you wouldn't feel like you have invested or wasted a lot of time if you reached the end and felt disappointed, 2) there was good suspense all along,it was enjoyable to feel that suspense, the atmosphere was very well constructed, in the mystery elements I couldn't find any fault in them in hindsight, 3) the acting was good. However the negative and it's only one negative but an important one, I didn't like how it developed towards the end, it was disappointing to say the least. I think it had more potential, they could have done something more with it involving as much science white maintaining the excitement and the fictional aspect of it. That's all I'm going to say without spoiling it. Do I recommend you to go ahead and watch it? Yes go ahead but you should know that the current average IMDB rating of 6 over 10 in my view, accurately reflects the value of this series; knowing that, it's your choice should you decide to go ahead and watch it.

There's people on here complaining about the acting? You mean the voice acting? It's dubbed. You're writing a review on the English IMDB. How can you possibly know the acting is bad if you're not able to speak German?.. It's so cringy to read. Nothing based on their physical movements says bad acting. The fact that they're actually making a show on this topic is awarding. There's not enough shows like it. So far it seems good. If you're watching something dubbed it's going to be a little harder to get into. Just be fair to the people making it and show some common sense. No show deserves a 1 unless it's offensive. Rate it appropriately or don't.

I'm midway through and I'm debating whether I want to finish. Huge sci-fi fan but as others have stated its slow... there's building suspense over time but so far this is kind of pushing it. Also just got mentally burned on it a bit. Why do shows have to bring politics in. It is nauseating. I don't watch TV shows to think of the current mess. I don't want to hear the names of any political person on either side. I don't care for the shows creators personal views on either side. Sven is also really ruining it for me. His character is weak and very soft, not being there for his daughter much in a chaotic time. Anyway, I'll finish watching it, just because I want to know if anything actually interesting or redeeming happens. I will change my review if it does.

The series were deep and mostly focused on us, humans. I loved it. It surprised me in so many ways. It got my attention from the first to the very last second. The ending got me unprepared, too. Unpredictable endings are something I miss in the movies nowadays and this one was a nice getaway from the typical forseen stories. If you want something different and character oriented, I strongly recommend this one. If you are expecting the next "alien against humanity" type of series with battles and guns, don't start. As a movie is closer to "Arrival", but amazingly different in so many ways. Just give it a chance.

There is an interesting idea here, but for me it got lost along the way. A female astronaut returns home, almost since she nearly purposely crashes their capsule home, but she doesn't only to perhaps be the reason for the plane to crash while taking her back home to her family. I found it curious that there was not a moment of containment for contamination for anyone on the spaceship after returning to Earth. I did like Florian David Fitz in the lead somewhat, but the real star in this is a child by the name of Yuna Bennett in the role of the astronaut's daughter, I don't know how old she is, but she was rather impressive. It has it's interesting moments, but it has more boring or incomprehensible ones and I was disappointed, though glad it was on four episodes.
