After hearing all the hype when this mini tv series came out I finally got a chance to watch it. Its been years since I last learnt about this incident back in high school and it brought back so many memories and research when I was undergoing HS. the film depicted the crisis in an amazing cinematography, story-telling and the actors were all so amazing with their roles. Every episode had me on the edge on what is yet to come and what was happening during the accident. It also made me think on ways how they would overcome the situation and ways to solve it! It really got me thinking!! I know most of the mini tv-series was dramatized towards more of the politics perspective and all the lies that they had to pursue, but I was expecting more of the cities reaction or perspective. But I also enjoyed the perspective from the control room, the firefighters and the scientist! It really made me feel the status of 'hero' to those who tried to solve and overcome anything bad from Chernobyl. Although, something that really got my thinking and wondering was how would this mini tv-series be with full Russian dialogue. Would it make the series more realistic? I bring this up when the first few episode provided those Russian recordings about the accident. It felt more real to hear this and really got my thinking what if... Overall, the mini tv-series was incredible and had me on the edge of my bed from watching!
