I'm disappointed with the series. The characters lacked depth and emotion. Even though they just lost their mother, no one shows any mood swings, sadness, or denial, only superficial condolences. I can understand the father's despondency after losing his wife and how the world around him changes, but I don't justify the lack of emotion. The writer-director of the series has exhausted the audience by constantly appearing in the media, resulting in intense negative criticism of his work. He tries hard to convey a message, but it gets lost in translation. All characters are superficial without any meaning, and it shows. After the protagonist's death in real life, I want the series to stop and not be replaced. It has completed its cycle, and now it's time to move on. One positive aspect I'll add is that I liked seeing a different part of Greece in a Greek series, even if it's online, but the local element is missing. Another positive is that I liked that the protagonist seems like a normal person next door and not the classic Greek caricature of the hysterical gay person that channels try to portray. The world is not like that, and it should show.

I don't often watch Greek films, and I haven't been to the cinema in the past year. The specific movie I randomly watched, which was advertised on Instagram, didn't appeal to me. I decided to watch it because I was more interested in the actor Dimitris Kitsos, whom I had seen in another project, specifically in the maestro, a mini-series. I think the movie could have had more substance, exploring how the main character could understand his father's nature earlier and take actions to change, making things worse or better before getting into the situation. While the performances of the two actors were basic, they didn't provide much depth to the characters, and there was room for improvement.

Waste of time, nothing happens, the plot doesn't fill the expectations of a cyberpunk dystopian sci-fi movie. The acting is very bad and there is not any depth of the meaning behind. The tone of the movie a very state without and action at all and it doesn't develop any new aspect about the future technology that Simulators are supposed to have. We don't see any background of the characters and I felt that the film tried to have the usual narrative of the good-bad guy but they didn't give the characters space to develop any story.

If someone wants to watch good action sci-fi I suggest : Upgrade (2018) and Mute (2018)
