It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

I like thoughtful, complex science fiction series that tell interesting stories and show great imagination. I really wanted to like this. But it turns out it was basically a one-note zombie story that had a lot of just plain stupid plot complexities and twists that seemed to be used just to fill out the season contract of 13 episodes. They introduced new characters and story lines willy-nilly - probably as they ran out of ideas. I couldn't even stomach the thought watching season 2.

I think most of the negative reviews here have it all summed up. It is television at it's lowest.

Let me start off telling you that i'm not Anti Netflix. What ever Netflix made is terrible for some reason. A cliché from every single other popular movie or TV show ever made. The acting you can compare to a college, a few good ones, rest is mediocre and a few terrible.With that being said, glad to know they can bring in SOME concepts of new stuff onto there website. But in general, its all bad.

I'm writing this more than a year after I last saw the episodes. I don't remember all the details, but I remember my reactions to the show as it was airing. I have to agree with most of the reviewers. Completely bizarre production. Intriguing premise but it got buried under waves and waves of strange conspiracies, weirdness for weirdness' sake, scenes created for shock value and more.It seems that, at some point, the writers and producers realized how wild the concept was getting, so they just went with it. Come up with more strangeness and see how far they could spin everything around and grind it up to see what came out the other side. I will say that the show was unusual for Syfy and for science fiction. I think it was influenced by American Horror Story (which I haven't seen), mostly in the resetting of the story universe each season. I think AHS does that. That happened with Helix when they moved from the Arctic base to the tropical island. I don't pretend to make any sense of it, nor do I think there was much sense to be made. I'm sort of glad I sat through it. Real life can sometimes be dull, depressing or mundane. Even if this show wasn't that coherent, it provided moments of true weirdness. That has to count for something, doesn't it?
