Chernobyl 1986

The story is based on real events but those events are not disclosed correctly! Nor are the USSR political lies nor the efforts to hide the disaster from states outside USSR.

The main male character was part of the fire brigade of which a main part died from the radiation but he not ! Nor did the little boy who filmed the explosion die after that he had been treated in Switzerland in a way that does not exist!

This movie is so different from the Chernobyl TV mini series in which the truth and facts really are revealed.

Altogether a totally an unnecessary movie. Recommend watching the TV mini series and The lost tapes..

Movie in general is not that bad. It is based on true story, yet i dont understand why they need to focus that much on romance part and relationship between firefighter and nurse. I guess due to production and who made the movie.

It is bringing some other, different news and details that were not on Netflix series. Truth will be somewhere in the middle i guess.

Main two characters are going through relationship drama, where firefighter left left the mother - where she never told him they have a son.

Later when discovered, firefighter is moving between heroic role and father attempts, that usually fails.

As i wrote, my guess is that production tried to make move more impactful from relationship and life balance with tragedy.
