Michelle T. @RT92274172 2d Absolutely incredible TV rendition of such an iconic novel. Certainly an arthouse production, not really made for the masses. Very cinematic, experimental, eclectic, but profoundly fascinating and thought-provoking. If you’re looking for a wild, action-packed thriller, you will be disappointed. This is slower paced and meaningful, which allows us to really see the kids’ progression into insanity. Yes, there is some pretty cringe-worthy CGI work, but that’s about my only knock on this series. The young actors, notably the characters of Piggy and Jack, are seriously impressive. Including some surprisingly long single-shot scenes that add to the effects. I can understand the frustration from some, but nearly consider it a masterpiece See more Rob L @Billy2542 4d Wow. What a way to F up a great story. We get it, you want to psy uop every audience into thinkinh all white people are evil and all non whites are the heros; now can you cut it out with the diversity Olympics and make a watcheable show? Crap. See more nicole T. @RT57984973 5d The aesthetic from music to visuals is very on point. The acting of the children is fantastic, especially Jack, whose violence and loss of control are terrifying, but equally impressive to me See more Goose R. @rodrigug 5d 🚨🚨🚨 Contains a spoiler 🚨🚨🚨 I heard the book is really good and I also wanted to learn what the author thought a group of kids on a deserted island would do. The story revolves around a group of children that survives a plane crash where all the adults died. They have to fend for themselves and make rules. The spoiler , not really a spoiler, is the part where they hunt a mother pig with her piglets. It’s really disturbing. On the flip side , most children are shocked by what they did. One even is concerned about the fate of the piglets , now orphans. There is another scene where one is unable to kill a pig. This was really disturbing to me and for that and also that was slow and boring , I give this one a 🍿/5 on Netflix See more Tomato B. @GummyBee Jun 1 No one likes it when you change the original story. Especially since this story felt very unrefined. 10/10 kid actors though, give them a raise. They made it bearable to finish (almost didn’t) See more Jennifer E. @RT51924423 May 30 Loved this series!
