Sozinhos

I decide to watch this show because of Anthony Mackie , I am never truly impressed with his acting and i wanted to be unbiased and try one of his new shows. That being said i really enjoyed this show as an avid reader and someone slowly but surely getting into musical theatre.

The reason i suggest not to binge it is due to the fact that all the episodes are practically monologues with a minimalistic set and one or two actors at most per episode. However each actor did justice to the story they were telling and i found myself crying, laughing and at times feeling completely terrified (episode 6 ) along with the actors (yes every single one of them).

This show is not for you if you only enjoy action or romance in your TV series. This show is however seven simple stories beautifully acted and slightly linked together , meant to replicate experiences that many of us go through (ie. Inability to handle loss, paranoia etc.).

Although this show is billed as Sci-fi, in reality it's just a middling drama. Each episode is a snapshot of a character's entire life and how their choices have shaped their life and current situation. The novelty wears off by episode 4.

All the sci-fi mumbo jumbo is, in fact, unnecessary. All the stories would be just fine even if you remove the stray themes of time travel, dystopia and space travel.

The writers tried hard to lend depth to the characters but in just 30-minute episodes, it is hard to delve deeper. All in all, a decent watch. But don't expect Black Mirror kind hard hitting themes.

It's essentially a series of philosophy class lectures dressed up with sci-fi fixings. The sci fi factor is definitely secondary to the philosophical factor here. Way too much time spent on famous actors pontificating about a mix of contemporary social issues under the guise of science fiction, and not in a meaningful or poignant way.

Don't bother with this boring garbage. I managed to make it to Ep3 and that was my lot. There are great actors in there, but even they couldn't keep my attention as they muddled through as best they could with dull and boring scripts.

Being a science fiction fan I just had to check out "Amazon Prime Video's" "Solos" series as it's an anthology that involved different characters and different stories. Most episodes involved life struggles that involved family, future, time travel, memory, loss, and dealing with pain. The stories and episodes are written well and they twist some you the viewer have to pay attention and it featured well known stars as Anne Hathaway, Morgan Freeman, Anthony Mackie, Helen Mirren and other up and comers and known stars. However watching thru each episode as the characters memory loss and time problems are related and you see things are tied up and a conclusion is reached in the final episode(Note: watch the Morgan Freeman episode last!) Overall okay good decent anthology series that was different as you the viewer can make your own call as it's spin on life, space, time, future, past, connection, and memory experience that was an interesting watch.
