May 14, 2021Not nearly as flawless as "critics" would have you believe. Maybe read the book instead.

Jun 2, 2021How this can score way higher than the contemporary "Mare of Easttown" is beyond me. 30% of the score is for the WAS (woke appreciation society).

Jul 21, 2021Boring, trashy and useless. Absolute garbage without any reason to be Watched.
Awards & Rankings
-
The Underground Railroad treads the line of fictional entertainment and historical reenactment expertly, without ever feeling forceful. It is, in short, yet another masterpiece from Barry Jenkins.
-
An epic that’s beautifully and sensitively composed in all aspects, The Underground Railroad is a powerful, often difficult adaptation that prioritises its characters’ personhood, refusing to leave them simply as victims of a thematic point.
-
It is a masterwork that puts into the spotlight the sheer power and communion that can be found with visual storytelling. This is a series not so much witnessed but felt.
