Cast, crew and cinematography were excellent. This mini series is one of the best and I don't know why it took me so long to watch it. I agree with other raters, Chernobyl is scarier than most horror movies. It has a creepiness that you just don't see in most movies. I guess because it's based on a true story. I highly recommend you see this series. Russia needs to get out of the dark ages, start demanding the truth at every turn, and make meaningful changes to their values.
