The world shown here is believable in that you can accept that it could have been like that had history taken a different turn. On the other hand you really need to be lenient with the plot. How four guys with submachine guns don't even manage to score one hit on Smith is beyond me.
And how does that "Man in the High Castle" produce a film, showing events that in this reality never happened, with mid 20th century technology ? Am I too picky ? Could be. But the answer to that question will probably decide how I rate the show.
Omg the visual effects are so bad, but I don’t mind, I guess this show is more about the story, but when that guy fell into the dam it was hilarious.
And obviously I’m team Juliana but I understood if Frank gave her up, we are talking about his sister and two children, and like Juliana is two days ahead of them and he could’ve tried to warn her, I feel like the Japanese wouldn’t have killed them if he had giving them the information, just like they spared his life, all he had to say was ”the 10:30 bus”
This episode is really boring.
Most of Philip K. Dick's books have the theme of reality being an illusion. I really enjoy thinking about that while watching this show. The book reads like a short story to me. So, turning it into a show requires adding a lot of scenes.
However, both the first two episodes add violent and/or disturbing scenes. I think it might be better to add chase scenes for excitement and hide-n-seek for tension. I very much appreciate the daring of this show. It's just that the backdrop is so bleak, so I'm not sure I can stand being tortured vicariously every episode.

Really, 4 guys with machine guns can’t hit 1 guy with a pistol? This is really outrageous script. Hope to not see this kind of situations again.
