1899

I have very mixed feelings about this one. On one hand, it is literally the Matrix with people just talking in their own language, knowing no one understands them. 1899 started out promising, but slowly descended into mediocrity. And by slowly, I mean the series really dragged. Some things didn't make sense, others were awkward, but the cast was mostly good. I would hesitantly see a second season.

Nice production values but we saw them already in Dark and ultimately, it was all a dream, like Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and World on a Wire and Total Recall and The Matrix etc. and there's no solid end - I'm guessing they're hoping for another series to do it all again. Sorry if I ruined it for you, but I wish somebody had for me. Would have saved 8 hours.

Forced suspense!

For some reason I didn't manage to continue viewing it after the second episode.

Honestly, was expecting more considering Dark is maybe the best thing I've seen on TV. What was confusing for me was the language barriers in the show. Didn't seem like any two people spoke the same language, and as English wasn't spoken either and I was reading the subtitles, I kept getting confused on who could understand who. Might have stuck it out if it got renewed, but since there was no resolution, I quit after episode 5.

Nice setting, but failed to pull me in

Lost meets the matrix, or something. Very slow buildup to a slightly entertaining finale.

No, thanks.

Not that successful as a whole but enough entertaining characters, multiple nationalities, beautiful sets and volume. The sound track was the best part. Better ending than usually in this kind of stories.

So far it's a mess. Most story elements were directly copied from several other stories, notably The Matrix, Westworld, Black Mirror, and Inception. While each of these stories had their own unique things to say, 1899 combines everything with no order or meaningful intention.

If you are into alchemy you have to be into this show, and, although penned by the same team as Dark, this one is not as dull as the aforementioned.

1899 was mildly reminiscent of Lost; a little chaotic, possibly deeply flawed, and a fun binge-watch. The use of multiple languages was used well, though the acting was a mixed bag. Some of the side characters seem overly-extraneous.

Reuses many elements of DARK, but with too many scenes of running down dark corridors. Two distinctive things: 1) eight or so languages are spoken, so that characters often cannot understand each other and with no “main” language; this could thus be seen as one of the first truly “globalised” productions; 2) no green screens used; instead, scanned, digitalised locations are projected onto screens visible to the actors, a transformation of the filmmaking process that seeps into the story itself.

Waiting for season 2

I wanted Event Horizon on a ship,which it isn't despite initial appearances. But,it turns in to another genre I quite like by the end

from inception to black mirror, such a waste of time but, aneurin öyle mi.
