    Incredible cinematography and production. Excellent cast and acting. Dynamic captivating and engaging fever dream of a story that leaves you wondering what is going on around every turn. The Writing could have been slightly better and more fleshed out at times for some of the characters and episodes but I’m guessing with future seasons they will include much more.

    Gorgeous show with great international cast. It is slow so if you are impatient or looking for a lot of action this is not for you. However, if you don't mind a slow burn this mind-bending surrealist sci-fi mystery show is more than worthwhile - it's amazing.

    I am into this show! Like Dark, it takes you in unexpected places both visually and in your imagination.
    The international cast is great, and I appreciate the multi-language concept. This is original storytelling and state of the art filming every way. Looking forward to another season!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Definitely enjoyable, would have been nice to have a bit more of a satisfying ending, far too much left hanging on a second season, but an enjoyable trip none-the-less.… Expand

    Ahead of the predictable and unsatisfying cliffhanger, the series slows to a crawl, and there’s an inescapable sense that it’s built every inch of its reveal-driven plotting around a mystery that can’t even manage to be very mysterious.

    For a show to be successful in the long run, there must be characters to care about with meaningful stories. And while 1899 succeeds in building a puzzle that’s at the same time brilliant and accessible, it fails to have us cheering for the future of its best characters. When the credits roll in the season finale, so much has been subverted that both their victories and failures have no further purpose.

    It succeeds far more often than it sinks, and with the sixth episode (“The Pyramid”) yielding some of the most powerful moments and revelations thus far, there’s little doubt that 1899 will be altogether satisfying when it finally reaches its destination.
