Magic Marmalade 8th Jun 2020		Rated 9/10 Proper Sci-Fi!!! I have one rule of thumb that determines for me if something is genuine sci-fi, or just a fantastic light show fantasy piece: Do I come away from this with more questions that I went in with? (Anyone who claims to have the answers hasn't asked enough questions yet :) And this really lived up to billing, as it deals with some fairly predictable, and well worn fare of many worlds / multi-verse / fate / destiny / free will themes, but ingeniously, uses that predictability from established formulas to lead you well and truly up many garden paths, only to bamboozle you by playing with your expectations of what is about to happen, and the general meaning of what it's all about... then throwing a neat twist in just at the punch line / expected outcome. What is Devs? Well it's safe to say there is pretty much a Fight club rule on this one... ..."you do not talk about..." You get the picture, and that is both one of the points of the show, and what makes it difficult to fully explain without spoiling it. But it most certainly is centred around the themes I mentioned earlier. A cool, glacial slab of minimalist sci-fi with a great story, lots of drama and moments of action, opaque, but reveals itself in the end... (Not like some TV shows, that only think they're being profound, but ultimately go nowhere... often because the writer(s) haven't actually thought it through, and got a destination in mind from the outset... Lost, you might say :) ... and shows that it actually has warmth and soul to it's ideas (and humour!) A great self contained (or not, possibly) concept, that will be watched again from the start, in the newly attained context of having seen it once to the end. Marvellous! 4 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
