Review of Silo

Silo (2023– )
4/10
Too Much Filler
8 May 2023
I decided to rewrite my review (which I do really rarely) - after two initial good episodes, Silo goes downhill fast. I still like the production and the cast but we get to much filler time on the table. Nothing really happens, lots of flashbacks and filler episodes like episode 3 (the generator fixing) and lots of talking that, well, is just talking. In this sense Silo reminds me a lot of The Last of Us: in my opinion both "universes" or "worlds" are fine enough to provide good material for movies like the The Hunger Games or Divergent books did. But the adaption as a show does not work well: with every episode aired it shows more and more that the writers are struggling to provide something interesting. With a sad heart, because I see the potential of Silo (like for Last of Us), I quit watching this one too. Episode 6 aired was one big let down too many, at least for me. Still, the production is legit and maybe someone with more patience will like Silo more.
