After seeing these high review scores, I tried watching it. I'm struggling to get through the very first episode.

So far, it's the most clichéd and boring story ever told. Some dystopian future, as is typical for the American cinema (do Americans ever dream of a nice future?). Some brutal military dictatorship. Some system-fighting noble rebels. Some zombies. Yawnnnn.

And all this told slooooowlyyy. As if this slow pace adds any meaning to the shallow tale.

I'm not sure I have the stamina to keep watching this.

It was nice to see Anna Torv again though, I like this actress. 4 stars for Anna. Not sure I like the other two leads, they seem so clichéd I can't engage.

I haven't played the game mind you, so maybe for the original game lovers this story makes more sense.
