The Cost Of Lies
HBO’s Chernobyl is the latest mini-series that has mostly appeased the Game of Thrones’ fans by storm, after nursing a broken heart, thanks to a disappointing finale from the final season.
Chernobyl’s based on a true event surpassed my expectation. It is clear that the involvement in this series is given attention-to-detail solid.
I was pleasantly surprised with the great build up, impressive acting and the immersive 70’s cold-war atmosphere.
The entire series left me gripping at the edge of my seat, as if I could feel the radiation coming off and creeping under my skin.
This 5-part episode re-enacts the incident that happened and uncovered the root cause, the people involved, and how it became one of the worst man-made disasters in history.
[Spoiler alert?]: This series is based closely on the actual event. If you intend to watch it, perhaps you might want to skip this.
