    It’s a different kind of storytelling than most audiences are used to. You’re not just handed a complete story with all the details explained, you’re more along for the ride while you barely know who these people are or how things got this bad. Along the way some things become clear but many others do not. To me this feels far more realistic than most movies that are made today. And there’s some very impressive cinematography on display along the way as well, with minimal (or none? can’t remember) CGI. So yes, I’m certainly one of those people who think it’s absolutely brilliant. Should probably rewatch it again, come to think of it…









  • This also means that, when you buy a car with say a 500 km range, that the battery will last for 10,000 x 500 = 5 million kms. That is an absolutely insane number compared to cars that are on the road right now. And one you will obviously only reach if the rest of the car can keep up. EVs are already doing well compared to ICE cars in this regard, but this is almost an order of magnitude larger than the current status quo.
