kukapyry's rating
While being a magnificent effort, this dreamlike miniseries felt it tried too hard to be "art".
The show expects the viewer to recognize it's Kalevala based characters and references beforehand. I enjoyed the beautiful Finnish scenery and how the big budget shows. Some shots are really impressive and even the score is ambitious.
Unfortunately "dramatic" expressionless stares don't turn into good drama. Storytelling is quite heavily on the slow side and often feels aimless. The "Golden woman" on the first episode has a disturbing and iconic look.
I gave up and stopped watching after the second episode despite having a sweet spot for artsier films and being motivated to finish this series. I don't know if this was considered a masterpiece when it first aired, but to me it feels a bit dated. Still A for effort!
