Silo season two review – this dystopian thriller is bigger and better than before
Silo season two review – this dystopian thriller is bigger and better than before
Smarter, more inventive – and with added Harriet Walter. The second outing of this riveting sci-fi drama gives its talented supporting cast room to breathe
I thought S02E01 had too many flashbacks. Not much actually happened. But I’m still excited for the rest of the season.
I thought S2E01 was decent. Definitely going to watch the rest of Season 2.
I enjoyed season 1 and I generally dislike the "streaming company does a series based on famous sci-fi author's work" format.
Debating whether to start reading the novels or watch the streaming series and then go through the novels.
The first season diverged from the first novel significantly and I felt like it was a much worse story because of it.
The author did a great job in world building and storytelling that just didn’t work on screen.
For example, the opening vignette is the sheriff walking up the stairs to leave the Silo. It’s an in depth meditation on the worn steps, his personal feelings (but not motivations) and concludes with the somewhat shocking death.
That just didn’t happen in the show as effectively.
I haven’t read book 2, and I’m not sure I will.
I haven’t seen the show yet, but I have read the books and they are awesome. They start excellent and just keep getting better. I should probably re-read them now huh
Good to hear. I might have to just go for it and start the novels, I will most probably end up watching the series anyways.
Enjoyed s1 and s2e1 was good.
If you liked Silo, give Fallout a shot as well.
Really? The first season has an interesting premise but spins around with empty episodes. Dunno if it gets better by the end. The cast is great though
I agree. Season 1 felt hollow
Haven’t seen s2 yet, and in hindsight does seem repetitive, but I feel it works for me because it reinforces how crazy/committed you have to be to undertake her course of action.
