Great background, bad execution

Rating: 6/10 (1 February 2019)

The things that happen in the background and attention to detail are amazing, good story backdrop, gets you to start believing. Russian Mi-24's in perfect Mid East attack formation, probable world events such as cult deaths in a real cult that has claimed to do so(in a little known corner of the world) etc. But the story itself stutters. Anytime you need a random voice over to explain the story, you aren't doing a good job of writing the story. Take Close Encounters of the Third Kind with Contact, throw in a bit of modern special effects and a weird twist on an evil antagonist from a video game(Look up reapers from Mass Effect) and Bobs your uncle. At least, that's how I felt after watching this drama
