01x02 - Path of the Dead: 7.8/10 (Impressive)


The cinematography is stunning, and some stills are works of art in their own right. It was this aspect of the episode that pulled me in, combined with the almost poetic dialogue. The two leads, Emily Blunt and Chaske Spencer do a fine job, and the episode’s portrayal of conflict and societal commentary is handled artistically while remaining grounded. It lends nuance to everything instead of simply being black and white, which I like. “Path of the Dead,” the second episode, is a solid follow-up to the debut and masterfully lays the setting for a gripping tale, even if we don’t know where it’s heading just yet.
