    I had to laugh when I saw the "dystopian" marketplace. I mean c'mon! Bunch **** smoking weed out in a park? Tons of dyed hair for reasons, and yet it's a combat zone? I did t make it very far, but it had that Matrix 2 Zion vibe, where everyone has super stylish clothes and hair, and they dance like they're in some club, but the world is on fire. Just **** writing and production.

    A series with potential in the half-dead science fiction genre. But once again you haven't understood what really defines the genre and so you have another trivial series that looks good but delivers nothing else.
    It can't be that hard to create a sci-fi series that comes close to Picard.

    The actors stretch mightily in their performances to sell the many plot holes that "DMZ" requires us to ignore as we travel with Alma. Other details, including a ticking-down clock in the first episode, have no real purpose at all. Whether the poignant performances and rousing visuals are enough to carry viewers through its inconsistent flow is as tough to say.

    It’s not hard to imagine this dystopian future, and DMZ offers a compelling story at the heart of the show.

    “DMZ” has a striking visual tone, from the dystopian landscapes of burnt-out Manhattan to the color-coordinated interiors that pop with bright shades of blues and oranges and reds. ... Alma rises to a position of prominence in such fast fashion you’ll almost wonder if you skipped an episode, and for all the big-picture stuff taking place inside and outside the DMZ, the confrontations are often intense but pretty small scale.
