Technically, I have seen similar story many times, most recently in Wayward Pines but three episodes into that I don't feel like not sticking around for more. The atmosphere is good, mystery feel also - it has some potential for a good story development. Some of the characters are less interesting than others at first glance but the majority of them work quite ok.
For now, mystery and atmosphere win over originality and characters but it is good enough to go.

I actually have two problems (ok, not problems but things that bug me) with this movie - the acting and the very familiar and formulaic story setup. Acting is common issue with all Bulgarian productions with some rather rare exceptions. If I happen to watch Bulgarian production that is dubbed in English for instance it instantly gets better. So, here we get more of the same - stiff, emotionless, declarative. Deyan Donkov gives a performance above the others. Lead actress tries, but it is obvious she needs more experience.
The story tries too hard to be dark and provocative but it cannot steer away from the million other movies exploring lost souls taking the wrong road, hanging out with the wrong people. During some scenes, it looks even forced. Still, there is a nice twist midway through the movie which surprised me and gave the movie a little bit of own identity and fresh perspective only to lead to cliched final at the end. Not great, but definitely not terrible.
Camerawork and editing, along with the soundtrack is pretty much alright (especially building around old albums of Rammstein.
For a Bulgarian production, though, it is one of the better ones for sure, comparing it to other new tv series or movies, it would get a solid 8.5/10 over the others. My score is given based on comparison with all movies I've seen, and I think it is a fair one.
I don't think that the original one can be topped at all no matter how many re imaginings are happening. The trick is actually not screwing up and giving us updated version with the current state of technology and society while staying true to the concept and the quality that is expected. From what I have seen so far I have to admit that i wanted it to work and after I saw "Nightmare at 30,000 Feet" I got my hopes high. It was a descent episode with nice twists but so far this is the only one I like.
The rest of them so far are uninspired, predictable with too much political, racial undertones. Don't get me wrong I don't mind them as long as they stay within reasonable limits.
Will keep watching though, hope it gets better.
