Jour Zéro

This is the best out of Netflix in a Looooong time for me. And how the hell is Angela Bassett 66 years old ??? She is Smoking Hot.

I enjoyed the series, mostly i felt this could and can and is actually happening already in USA today, with Trump and Musk and the attack on the democracy and proud Boys and BLM and riots.

Its just that Americans dont see it.

Open your eyes and witness the dismantling of the state, the transfer of wealth and power from the middle class, to the ultra rich and their friends.

Goodbye America.

It was nice knowing you, and i really enjoyed your company. Now i am off to sell my Tesla and invest in Europe.

Zero Day is as good as you would expect it to be with a cast this good. Everything about this series is good from the writing to the cinematography but it's the acting that really sets it apart. It's loaded with talent like Robert De Niro, Jesse Plemons, Connie Britton, Lizzy Caplan, Dan Stevens, Joan Allen, Angela Bassett, Clark Gregg, etc. Everyone I just named is good enough to be a lead for a good show but for them all to come together for this makes this worth watching. This miniseries is only 6 episodes so it's an easy binge and you're going to want to binge it so make sure you give yourself enough time before you start it because you won't want to stop. It has plenty of mystery and twists to keep everyone entertained. I'll be shocked if this doesn't get nominated for some awards, especially De Niro. He was fantastic in this. I definitely recommend watching this.

De Niro and Plemmons? Oh come on, where do I sign? The show was good. Not only on the whodunit premise, but on the complexity of politics, relationships, aspirations, trauma, guilt, resolution. We can never win it all, we can never have it all, and De Niro as the lead show cases that. Most we can accomplish when we enter the dance is that we leave it with our head held high by picking the road less travelled. And that's awfully hard and rare.

Plemmons was great too. I do feel he is becoming better with age.

Good cinematography, I enjoyed the pace and the performances. It's a slow burner but engaging. I do recommend it.

"Zero Day" is a gripping mini-series that stands out with its compelling storyline and outstanding performances. Tackling some of the most pressing issues of our time-cybersecurity, political intrigue, and global threats-it invites viewers into a high-stakes game of strategy. Starring Robert De Niro in the lead role, the series goes beyond being just a political thriller by offering deep character exploration and a cleverly constructed narrative.

The story follows former U. S. President George Mullen as he steps back into action to uncover the truth behind a devastating cyberattack that has thrown the country into chaos. Beyond delivering action and suspense, the show skillfully addresses themes such as the nature of power, media manipulation, and the role of technology in politics. The pacing is well-balanced, ensuring that the plot remains engaging without feeling rushed, keeping viewers hooked with every episode.

The cast is another strong point of the series. De Niro's charismatic and seasoned performance brings a remarkable sense of authenticity to his character. The supporting actors also deliver impressive performances, maintaining the tension throughout the show. Additionally, the high production quality, cinematography, and immersive atmosphere make for a visually and emotionally satisfying experience. In conclusion, "Zero Day" is a must-watch for fans of political thrillers and cybersecurity narratives, offering a thought-provoking and exhilarating journey.

It was an enjoyable show, though the pacing lagged somewhat in the middle. However, the final episodes were engaging and held my attention much more. The series featured a well-regarded cast, good performances, and a storyline that felt plausible and important. As with most films and shows, there were moments that required some suspension of disbelief, so it wasn't flawless-but then again, what is these days? Ultimately, it delivered on its primary purpose: entertainment.

Rather than relying solely on others' opinions, I encourage you to watch it yourself. With only six episodes, it's a worthwhile experience, and you may find your own perspective on it.
