So overrated. I really don't get the hype. Mediocre and boring writing that merely follows an often used pattern. I don't even remember the plot. I'm so sick and tired of this Netflix formula for "minority sensitive" film-making that's anything but truly sensitive. If they wanted to do it properly, there wouldn't just be (the new Netflix stereotype of) a badass black female friend who's "strong despite prejudice" (and totally flat otherwise, but so is the main character and basically everyone in this TV show). Also, as a female amateur chess player I can't help but think that a big part of the appeal is mere sensationalism. "Oh look a bear riding a motorcycle!" "Oh wow, a woman playing chess!" What a clever girl.
