Origin

It reminds me of The Thing (1982) but in space. It's worth the binge watch if you are into horror and sci-fi. It also provide some good back ground stories on the character for development. Definitely hope for another season just to see where it goes.

It's pretty much scifi channel acting quality. As it progresses though into later episodes the actors get better.

Bad acting creates that sentiment to just dislike which is why i dropped a bunch of stars on this.... But it does keep improving.

Filming and cgi is pretty good. Acting not great but improves. Story is not bad actually and also improves and 'becomes' knitted together better over time.

I got to ep 6 for me before i actually became properly engaged like some other awesome shows that hooked me at ep1.

I would recommend this regardless of rating - just watch it - it is different and i do think it is strung together well and improves. I am more anchored to cinematography - for me this is nice and does improved.

Give it a go - it's not a 9+ star but sometimes a 6-7 is someone telling you they have seen better but give it a go.

Even though that is my conclusion ... this show has plagued my mind for some time since watching - and that's something i appreciate.

A series that you should watch at least 3 times to appreciate and get a real grasp of it.

Good acting, interesting Sci-Fi premise, nice filming and VFX, but lacking some logic, real tension and danger. The flashbacks were great though, especially those involving the Japanese.

It flows well most of the time, while in-between, it splashes erratically like water onto a curved wall.

Near 10 hours of dedication, build-up and polishing, to be cancelled. A real shame.

The good: The production values are excellent. Cinematography is of good quality. The horror atmosphere of the series serves its purpose. There are captivating characters. The pacing rarely bores the viewer. some of the flashback sequences, are good as the best black mirror episodes.

The so-so. The plot is not very original. Some characters are too stupid. Not all flashback sequences are good.

Summing up. It's a good series of horror and science fiction, but it could be so much better. Even so. It's binge worthy

Take alot from other shows, but lucky for us they only take the good parts.

Did u like Event Horizon? Sunshine? Then your are in for a treat here.

The star of this show is Natalia Tena. You will recognize her from Game of Thrones, playing Osha. Yeah, thats the girl who sticks around with Bran alot and protects him.

And also Sen Mitsuji, who is a completely NEW talent. IMDB is clean besides Origin show. I was really impressed by his effort and he really fits perfect into this role. I will keep my eye on him for future movies/series. Very cool performance.

Overall this is a great series, sure it has some plot holes and some weak parts... but all series has that. When i watched the last episode, i felt like I really wanted to continue following these ppl and thats a really good testimonial for it being good. Watched all 10 episodes during 3 evenings, and i honestly had a hard time parting from the show to go sleep :P

I really hope for season 2, on the planet...following the same characters. That would be awesome!
