Summary
Reviewers say 'Undone' delves into mental illness, spirituality, and time travel, creating a complex narrative. The unique rotoscoping animation style garners mixed reactions, though it's often praised for its distinctiveness. Characters, especially Rosa Salazar's Alma, are lauded for their depth and relatability. The storytelling's ambiguity allows for varied interpretations of Alma's experiences, making it thought-provoking and emotionally resonant for some. However, critiques arise regarding pacing and animation effectiveness. Overall, 'Undone' is viewed as a compelling, unconventional exploration of personal healing and self-acceptance.
Featured reviews
Yes this show is touching, fascinating, bold, different. But these sorts of descriptions put me off watching it, because I am a very shallow person and generally avoid things described as 'profound', 'thought-provoking', 'moving' etc. What I realise having watched the first season and just starting the second, is that it is fun. Fun fun fun! Funny, fast-moving, addictive fun. This really should be said more, because it might help the show reach emotionally immature people like myself.
Have now completed the second season and I must say I was truly touched and astounded by the very believable characters (great casting) and quality of writing.
The weaving together of such a complex aspect of reality namely correcting ones mistakes and healing past trauma, has been portrayed excellently and with tender finesse and compassion.
I thoroughly recommend this series to all those who have an attention span greater than 3 mins.

Find your sweet spot - At first I wasn't sure where to look, then by the third episode I focused on the eyes and the animation took in a whole new dimension By that time the story line was enough; I was thoroughly immersed .

Amazon's latest original title ''Undone'' manages, and magnificently so , to intricately integrate flabbergasting ''Rotoscope'' animation with surreal, thought-provoking storytelling.
Quality animation isn't just meant to beautify the content , but rather to elevate it and maximize its potential , which is precisely the matter in ''Undone''. Rotoscoping in this particular case shone a bright light on the constantly deteriorating sense of reality around the protagonist ,which is emphasized by the seamlessly bewildering transitions , and the constant shattering of reality manifesting a dreamlike stage of existence reminiscent of the protagonist's state of mind .
But of course , the animation isn't the sole element lifting ''Undone'' , as it was quite beautifully coupled with an engaging story riddled with a multitude of themes; lived through flawed, realistic characters and one that leaves you aching for more .
9/10 Excellent .

If you've ever suffered mental illness, felt alone, let others down, felt uncomfortable, made others feel uncomfortable, or questioned your reality, this is for you.
Kate Purdy as the series creator, deserves how beautifully her story has been told.
Rosa Salazar once again proves how deserving she has of her massive cult following.
