    Chernobyl

    ★★★★★

    Gritty, beautifully shot. Though not fully accurate to the events, it's nails the general sentiment and serves as a cautionary tail of censorship and dogmatic nationalism. There are shots of this show that will stay will be for a long time.

    Alien: Romulus

    ★★★★

    Romulus manages to capture much of the horror and atmosphere of the first movie. It's practical effects are fantastic and it's backed up by striking cinematography and a strong score. Sadly, the film falls off toward the second act as it shifts more towards an action film, equipped with cheesy one-liners, cliches and faulty contrivances. Still, it manages to pull through in the end and remains an entertaining watch
