The Head (2020– )
9/10
Kept me guessing...
19 February 2021
This is an excellent who-dun-it series much in the old school style of 'And Then There Were None' like an Agatha Christie novel. Murderer on the loose, questioning the motive of each of the players with a little bit of the story unfolding after each death. I loved the multiple twists in plot and it kept me guessing. I appreciated the novel idea to set the story at a science station in Antarctica. Film gave a nod to some famous explorers as well as to another film set in an Antarctic science station that will go unnamed.... Unlike other reviewers I enjoyed the climate change elements in the script, it added a new dimension to the story-telling, but can appreciate why other reviewers thought it was perhaps insulting to scientists or weakly represented. One recommendation, this is not a show to binge watch in one sitting. Take your time with it, enjoy its complexity and excellent acting, there is a lot going on in each episode that you don't want to miss.
