If you have watched the series, you probably would be interested to see this too. The trailer gives you some expectations with an idea of a cyber attack to a hospital, but the film itself doesn't really give you anything, just some screen time from the characters you have seen.

The script is really lazy and you feel like watching a cliche spin-off from the very beginning until the end. If you haven't seen the series, don't watch this either.

This film is an example of making money with a known franchise. Watch just the trailer, not the film. Sometimes that's enough and in this case, it really is.

Movie tells a story about the society's incapability to notice it's flaws. The point of view, that bandage is the best solution, is interesting, because it is obvious, that it was not point, when this was filmed. It is only following the current worldview's state of mind and the director doesn't notice it, because he is fine with that. Actors have also been into that worldview from their childhood, so cast works out really well, everyone fulfills their tasks perfectly. That has usually considered the best, what an actor can do. Although, they could also think what the actual idea is and play in glances against the directors idea. Not because not being robots, but making actually better work in this story. That's why this film is unintentionally really realistic.

But still, it could do better. How about, if we think of preventing these things? Things which happen, when any person holds a gun in a hand.

We need police to guard the neighbourhood from the "bad guys", we need films to celebrate the ideology police cheered. But what if, we faced the problems (which are depicted as killers in this movie) beforehand? Without cheering something we believed in, without something that we acted along so many days, but just as we feel the breath in our lungs and the smiles in our eyes.

So, this film is well played, but without a lifesign of original spices in it.

War films and series often go along with simple solutions and plots and most notably, they keep repeating same stories.

Some might say, that two episodes were too few for dealing the story and some things should have had more space. It is partly true, but it is also interesting to see something, where not everything is made finished for the viewer. Situations in real life aren't so why make it like that always in movies? Haven't read the book, but I would guess that the plot in series follows it well.
