I live in a small opressed country where all artists are clinicly depressed from lack of attention and self realisation. Depressed, but highly functioning. So in that sence this movie felt very familiar - I could see a long way ahead where it was going with it's storytelling. So it fit just right in where I'm from. A small, grey, poor, isolated and corrupt country. I should have realized sooner, that a comedy that has rating over 6 stars can't be actually a fun loving movie. Depression usually doesn't have sence of humor, so movie critics tend to dislike them out of unrelateblility. 7 points, can not be a comedy.

Had to write a review to counter set all the other reviews and say I really enjoyed the second season, maybe even more than the first one.

We have all seen countless numbers of failed nr twos, from The Matrix to Caribbean Pirates. Silo's second season wasn't one of them. The big reason being, they managed to keep the suspense and discovery element alive, which is a key element on thriller and suspense based shows without turning into yet another action based part two. I understand that many only value storytelling that connect script points with a word 'and then' opposed to 'therefore' or 'but', to keep the content 'rich' on elements and locations, but it usually tells a rather thin and forgettable story with all the 'and then's, that even South Park creators try to avoid it. Watching season two I was happy. PS never read the books, so I might be up for a disappointment in season 3, but I do hope they maintain the exploration and world building element alive that gives so much to the thriller format.

UK version proves how important it is to have good experts on this kind of shows or they become intolerable to watch. Coming from Australian version of this same format (seen seasons 9-11), it's astonishing how the UK experts are at least three steps behind everybody else in the room and completely clueless on narcissistic behaviours to the point they go along with victim blaming. Very frustrating how they can't even put their finger on a past traumas and force people into positions where there can not be positive outcomes without dealing with the root cause first. I feel sorry for some of the cast members that ended up being offered absolutely zero help by the experts. Please go watch the Australian version instead, it's much more educational and the cast is in a sum a bit more civilized.
