Could've been a good series
opmontira18 February 2023
There are few good things I can say about this series; good cinematography, good production design and good music. I live in Poland so I like the way they design how Warsaw will looks like in 30 years and creat a retro-futuristic city from those existing blocks from commie time.

The love-triangle plot is not new (imagine Pearl harbour set in 2023) and you could list like 157 movies/series that involve a dangerous Russian corporation working on a top-secret space project. Still with good writing, these storylines could be interesting and that's the problem because the screenplay totally sucks.

Imho, it all starts with the unconvincing character building. I can see a strong attempt to creat cool characters, unfortunately the result turns out to be the opposite and all the characters are unlikable, irrational and unstable. I don't understand why they do what they do and that makes them very difficult to root for.

Conversations are also unnatural, some scenes seem forced and characters behaviors so pretentious. There are so many questionable things in the series like all the characters still driving cars with diesel engines from 70-80's when it's supposed to be in 2050 something or the fact that the villainous Russian space corp head quarter looks more like a set for fashion photoshoot because it's full of young, model-beautiful and impeccably dressed scientists. I could go on and on about things that doesn't make sense in this series.

To sum it up, they've set up quite a nice background for the story, but then they ruined it all with bad writing.

..... no reason to be thirty-years, just made it all that much more difficult
bjarias28 August 2023
... the plot isn't something well-written or very sophisticated.... it's a straightforward time complicated love-triangle.. production budget being quite high was a total waste for what was produced... and why on Earth would they choose an actor who's supposed to be his thirty year aged self, looking nothing like who he was when younger... to a point he's even nowhere near the same height which is ludicrous... and Magdalena Cielecka being a very attractive 50yo woman, how-why does she come off most times looking a worn-drawn-decade-older in this series

... as a Polish science-fiction romance-drama it falls waaaay short, and should have been made into a ninety-plus minute film, not painfully extended-over a multi-episode-series... one critic nails it saying... "If you're a fan of teen-love-triangle-dramas and have binged on-the-likes of Vampire Diaries, you'll probably enjoy the back-and-forth in this film between the main leads. Other than that, it is nothing that will interest adults looking for something with depth and meaning." ... hard-pass.

This is so bad even Netflix doesn't put it in the new releases section.
sanjsrik17 February 2023
Oh, where to begin. In 2022, fighter pilots drive sports cars with cassette tape players.

In 2054 (or whatever date in the future), people are still smoking.

The main character's daughter has the stupidest piercing on her front lip.

The female characters in 2022, all seem stuck in a twiggy video where they wear sparkly face makeup from the 70s.

This is as if someone wanted to make a sci-fi show but then got distracted by trying to be a caricature of what a sci-fi show should be.

The acting is wooden and bad. The plot makes you seriously not care about what could be an interesting plot but it's not because it's bogged down by bad acting and even worse special effects.

Rather than playing up the sci-fi aspect of the show, they throw off the cool stuff to make it not even cool.

This is what bad sci-fi looks like when it's done by amateurs.

Just don't
jennyslater-4245817 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Im not sure where to begin because I'm not actually sure what's even happening after 3 episodes.

The past is set in 2022, yet they're dressed in clothes from the 70s, with 80s glittery make up and jackets, think 'Robin Sparkles' from how I met your mother.

The English voiceovers don't suit the characters OR the topic they're discussing at the time. Maybe the American voiceover actors didn't actually watch it. I don't blame them.

When the girls laugh it's hello kitty creepy.

The child's nose ring is ridiculous.

Somehow a guy in his late teens/early 20s is 75 years old when only 30 years has passed.

A woman with an unexplained bionic arm. Im not sure if she's supposed to be evil?

Apparently Polish pilots, as in airplane pilots, are the best in the world therefore after 3 months training Russia want to send them to space. I mean REALLY. No we don't need an astronaut, pilot does the same job :)

I think I'm being conditioned to feel sorry for a woman who's in love with a man who went missing in space 30 years ago and so naturally she married his best friend but doesn't speak to him. This is basically a poor man's sci fi version of Pearl harbour.

If you want to watch a movie with English voiceovers I suggest re-watching squid game instead.

Really Not a Science Fiction Show
shuswap-8355723 February 2023
This show is basically just a polish night time soap opera. The story is weak. The dialogue is weak. The acting is decent. Good cinematography all around. Basically it's just about people looking for sex at dance clubs. The spy thriller element makes no sense so it's just filler I guess. I give it 3 stars for the dance club music and a few other good songs and some good passionate love scenes between girls and astronauts, I guess. I mean that's probably the plot line. Girls who like astronauts and like dancing and then after go somewhere for sex. I believe that's the main idea behind this show.

I Don't Understand the Hate for This Show
No_Furniture7622 February 2023
I don't get why everyone is so bent off about this show? It's literally labeled "sci-fi romance", and that's pretty much exactly what it is.

It's gorgeously shot, like truly. The effects are brilliant. It's one of the most realistic takes on the future/future technology (some aspects at least). I was also really impressed with the actors. The actors have good chemistry and the plot is unique. I think it is definitely worth the watch. There are a few plot holes and I definitely wanted more from the last episode. I think the show would have been even better if it were 8 episodes instead of 6. The buildup of the first 4 episodes was great, but it felt like they ran out of time and rushed the last two. Overall I genuinely enjoyed the show.

BIG & HUGE NO!
phazeadam22 February 2023
If you're counting on SF, you'll be disappointed.... it's a romance (just for teenagers) with a script written on the knee and scenes that often don't connect into the whole story... in the series we get a whole lot of absurd ideas... elite pilots who act like a bunch of teenagers on summer camp. F16 planes flying like in bad games from the 90s - this is such an important thread and the screenwriter has no idea about it! Overall rating strong 2/10 only because of the nice application (operating technical). It's a pity netflix ... once again you are pushing money into something that has no script!

A bit of a slow start but it gets going well!
macguffin0022 July 2023
The first episode seemed a bit boring so I almost switched off. The music and the photography kept on it and O found myself drawn back in.

More drama than SF as others have noted. Two guys, one girl and two time periods. The two guys are fighter pilots and incredibly competitive but are best friends, some of the time and the girl dances between the two. There are some plot holes but it is far from the worst I have seen.

The Russian subplot was a bit strange but it added a bit of colour although some of the acting there gets a bit overdone but the rest is ok and Nadia was good. The pilots are written a bit like two teenagers at times and you wonder why their characters have F16s to play with at work. On the other had: Top Gun and The Right Stuff.

Overall it looked pretty good. Some are critical of Future Warsaw looking too similar, especially the clothes. I felt that the changes were pretty good. It.was a bit too lucky how things worked so well when left for thirty years.

The ending is open but not necessarily a bad ting.

What a waste
jgassie19 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Conceptually, this was promising. I had hoped for more, given the initial premise. Did the writers simply run out of material? Or was the plan all along to turn an interesting idea into an absurd female empowerment story? All the efforts to establish the characters were wasted in the end. It truly minimizes the fact that the actual central character hadn't aged in 30 years. The story should have gone on longer, as there could have been much more interesting relationship dynamics play out since the return of Niko to earth, but no. Instead we received what seems to be a cop out. Was there no budget left to work with or what? I mean, what a waste of time. It's rather embarrassing. Even if the story had played out in a more reasonable manner, it certainly wouldn't have been a 10, but it could have at least been a 6. It was like the writers gave up, "sorry, we're done, we're out of ideas." In the end, any creativity was abandoned. It's not like having an unresolved ending that truly makes the story more compelling, no, nothing like that. It was just stupid and unrealistic ultimately. Even if they wanted the lead female character go her own way, there wasn't much thought that went into how the story played out, and that culminated into nothing, and was not worthy of being the primary narrative.

Sexy Sci-Fi from Poland that I enjoyed up until the end
cgvsluis21 February 2023
This had so many elements from the original Top Gun film but with a Polish space twist. I am prefacing my review with a qualifier in that I am not a fan of Science Fiction, my husband and most of my friends are however, which means I watch a lot of it...and enjoy very little (with few exceptions like the first season of Altered Carbon and Dark). I did enjoy this six episode Polish sci-fi series.

The story is told through two different timelines...2023 and thirty years later 2053. 2023 establishes a friendship and rivalry between two Polish elite fighter pilots (Niko and Bogodan), who are selected to participate in an international space program being run jointly by an Elon Musk-like character with money, Poland's Air Force, and Russian scientist. One of the pilots will be sent on a solo mission into space using a newly developed "stealth" technology and testing a cryogenic process all in preparation for an eventual trip to Mars. Niko and Bogdan couldn't be more opposite, Bogdan is disciplined and in control...training, not drinking, etc while Niko is wild and reckless getting drunk and playing the field. They both fall in love with the beautiful Marta who is DJ Stardust, newly arrived back from London and rooming with Niko's sister, Karolina. Mart seems to have trouble choosing between the two... In the 2053 storyline Marta and Bogdan have an adult daughter and have been married for 30 years. They seem to be having some struggles with their marriage when Niko's spacecraft arrives back on earth and he didn't die in an explosion like Marta and the world was lead to believe...and he hasn't aged a day!

I did read some of the criticisms of the film...I for one loved the soundtrack which had some great retro-songs in it like the appropriate Flock of Seagulls' "Space age Lovesong" and I didn't mind the classic cars with the tape deck, I didn't see it as a problem as I had an appreciation for them...oh! And people wear retro clothes all the time, like I do. My husband pointed out that it might have been a clever tool, since most of the items were at least 30 years old, to help you keep track of the fact that this storyline was 30 years in the past even though it is 2023 (and not 1983) and the "current" time is 2053. Whatever the point was I didn't mind it at all.

I enjoyed some of the ideas for the future...the cross walks, the household AI...and I really loved the stealth technology. When the space shuttle reappears out of stealth mode was great! The insect camera is cleaver...as were a few other ideas like drones moving the shipping containers...remote heart/health monitoring...and adaptive prosthetics...there were some interesting and imaginative technologies.

I enjoyed all the testosterone heavy similarities to Top Gun, sorry not sorry.

Some of the cinematography is absolutely wonderful...I don't know if it was filmed by drones or how it was done, but the sky is almost its own character. There are some interesting (if a little one dimensional) villains.

I loved the two-tone mosaic at the mission headquarters which depicts a man falling backwards in space maybe past a planet. Absolutely stunning!

I thought both actresses playing Marta were beautiful, young and old. (But this does bring me to a random musing...I have really only seen two Polish productions, this and all three 365DNI films, and in both contemporary Polish women are portrayed as rude, bratty, overindulging, alcohol abusing, drug using sexually permissive exhibitionists who end up deciding they want to prioritize themselves ((aka choosing themselves)). As a woman, I am hoping that isn't really what contemporary young Polish women are really like.) Also, what is the Polish fascination with motorcycles, particularly women driving motorcycles?

Overall, I enjoyed this series (except for the actual ending...which I felt was unnecessary and inappropriate. I also thought it was wrapped up too abruptly...like there might have been a bigger story with the stem cells and the girl with ALS.). I thought is was sexy and a great feast for the eyes. The story had a few hiccups (like the end), but I can overlook that because I enjoyed the rest as much as I did.

Enjoyed it but some aspects annoyed me
sue-0623921 April 2023
Warning: Spoilers
This could have been much better. An astronaut, Niko, goes into space on a secret mission meant to experiment with cryogenics but it goes wrong and he doesn't get back for 30 years. Meanwhile his best friend, Bogdan, and his flighty girlfriend, Marta, end up married and are still together when Niko reappears, still looking young and exactly as he used to be. Marta had, as a young woman, toyed with both of them and both loved her despite everything.

Niko meets up with Marta and is immediately still in love with her despite her now being so much older. Bogdan is torn between his love for his wife (he'd always loved Marta) and his friendship with Niko.

What ruined this for me was the fact that the young Bogdan is tall dark, handsome and gorgeous and yet the 30 years older man looks absolutely nothing like him - even his height is ridiculously smaller. This makes it impossible to accept that it's supposed to be the same person.

An ambiguous ending doesn't help the ultimate feeling of disappointment I had after watching the whole series.

Brownie points for the good soundtrack. Any show that features "Slave to Love" will always be worth a watch.

Worst show I've seen in years
gstylez-2950921 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Out of all the terrible things about this show, one of the worst and most insufferable aspect is easily the female lead, Marta.. Throughout the entire show, she prances around like a spoiled little priss, constantly playing the two fighter pilots like fools. She sleeps around with both of them, stringing them along whilst constantly proclaiming how "free" she is and that "nobody tells Marta what to do" as she continues to dance in and out of relationships with both men. Its literal emotional abuse. Marta is a narcissist. The show is a disgusting portrayal of "modern romance".

The end, where Marta says she has to choose.. and ultimately decides to "choose herself".. This completely sums up her character. The writers tried to portray her as the victim, but instead inadvertently wrote her to be a total sociopathic narcissist.. It's so stupid that it ends up being hilarious..

Tho only thing more absurd than Marta's character is the stupidity and weakness of both the male characters. The way they both fawn over Marta, allow her to disrespect them while they compete for her love is PATHETIC.

Another stupid thing I've noticed is how ridiculous it is that Niko's character comes back 30 years later, after only days have passed for him.. Yet, he doesn't seem AT ALL put off by the fact that his girlfriend is an old woman now. He barely remarks on it and immediately continues showering her with affection as if nothing has changed.. Now, obviously if you love someone, that wouldn't be a deal breaker. But c'mon, you'd at least be a little freaked out at first, needing some time to settle into this new reality..

He shouldn't even recognize her, he should be shocked and confused at the entire situation. Yet he seems totally unfazed by this earth shattering scenario, yet his only concern is picking up their romance where they left off. His lover just aged 30 years overnight, and he doesn't even seem to notice.. I'm sure the writers thought this would appear romantic and serve to exemplify his love for her, but it just appears hacky and incongruent with common human behavior..

I could go on and on with the stupidity of this show (the daughters lip ring.. Bogden looking twenty years older than Marta) but I don't have the time to write a book.. This show shouldn't have ever made it to our tv screens. It's an insult to Poland.

Had the potential, went downhill fast.
reineoo20 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Had real great looking main characters, they had the potential to do something with this.. But the writing was AWFUL.

The main female character is the absolute worst human being. She plays around with two mens feelings and instead of showing her feeling guilty.. They show she feels no remorse for her actions and leads on a man she doesn't love, married him only to throw him and her daughter aside for a younger bloke in the form of her previous lover that she knew for a short time.

She played victim constantly. Awful mother and awful person. Couldn't root for her or the relationships formed..

This one had potential
habalbazgame20 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
At first I liked the vibe and atmosphere this series had but the plot had many flaws.

It had some stereotypes of the wild ace pilot driving a fast car or a motorcycle but they where too old models for a 2022 year. Don't know if that's how it is in Poland but it was the 1st very very weird that kicked me. If it had some explanation of why they had that it would be great but again...that might be the situation in Poland although I don't believe so.

Next it was the characters. Marta was a red flag of a girl that couldn't choose or stay with someone but both ace pilots chose her somehow and put their friendship on the line. Bogdan wasn't drinking because reasons and was the nice guy and a top pilot, Niko was a wildcard "bad-boy" that did everything plus ace pilot. As history wants it they always have a big line of options in girls but chose to fight over 1 that didn't seem to worth the trouble. But that wasn't a big issue to me.

The HUGE problem is that professional pilots after the "failed" or "successful" mission, after the treatment etc that happens, they don't make a proper exam or debrief of what happened. It was so amateur handled that felt like 5th grade kids. The fact that the exams that you would need in 2052 would be much more efficient with some hyper scans, blood exam and some skin tissue and hair becomes such a drama for no reason. At least talk like mature military people about what the hell happened up there.

That was the biggest disappointment for me. I could overlook many things but that was deal breaker for me plus the stupid ending... Nice mother and wife...(not) So they went through everything and a very interesting experiment just to end up...what Marta would choose and be selfish about it...

Stupid is as stupid does
rich735413 April 2023
And boy was this series stupid.

Let's see if I can recap how terrible this really was.

First we have our trite, boring, and tiresome lovers' triangle. The three participants being:

Marta - An entitled, self-absorbed, vamp incapable of actually having any real feeling for someone else (though she fakes it pretty well at times).

Niko - Probably the worst of the three. A consummate narcissist and d-bag with no redeeming qualities. How Marta could even be interested in him boggles the mind.

Bogdan - The self righteous straight arrow. He was probably the least objectionable of the three, only because his character was a bit more complex and I couldn't completely figure him out.

Next come the events that happen in 2022. This consisted of macho and testosterone laced dialogues and actions that stunk to high heaven. After the first two episodes, I fast forwarded through most of these scenes so I could get to...

... the final entry; a mediocre and bland sci-fi element that wasn't all that interesting and had no real climax, but was, unfortunately, the best part of the entire series.

One thing that bothered me to no end (even though it was pretty minor) is the fact that in 2022, Bogdan is significantly taller than Marta. In 2052, they're almost the same size. A small thing, but it demonstrates the production teams lack of attention to detail.

All in all, this was a pretty painful viewing experience.

Awful combination of Top Gun, Interstellar and below average action movie
matachowskapatrycja20 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Based on the cast and the description I've expected a sci-fi with a deep love story. Haven't seen good Polish series in long time so I had my hopes up. Unfortunately, the producers decided to ruin a potential of the series in every possible way: making main characters bland and unlikable and relationship between them shallow and even toxic, adding a story of a sister which didn't bring anything to the series, and also making polish-Russian conversation easy and painless without using any translator!

I've almost completely forgot about a ridiculous scene where the main character is easily running away from the Russians he is completely ok with the new world and technology.

The whole vibe is off, feels like they've tried too hard to make the movie interesting and innovative -it went the opposite way.

I wouldn't recommend to anyone, even if you'd like to laugh or just chill as for the most of the series I wanted to poke my eyes out.

LOL!!! THIS SHOW IS TRAGIC
rougedubois20 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
What starts as a very interesting concept slowly, and I mean SLOWLY, goes down the drain. Everything about the show is unrealistic and I don't mean the sci-fi aspects lol. These characters are tragic tragic tragic. Like imagine the worst possible traits for characters & that's these people. Hard to imagine these damaged people would stay in a relationship for longer than a year, much less 30 years. Not to mention the main character coming back, wanting to be with this old crotchety lady that's not the same girl he left behind & they go on their lovers getaway immediately when he returns 30 years later. He's not even in shock that she's aged 30 years, has lived a full life being married & having a child the same age as him. The last episode is so amazingly bad that it's just comical.

This was a thrilling Show
jennifer-storey23 February 2023
I am so glad I ignored all the negative reviews. I'm truly baffled why such bad reviews. I thought it was suspenseful, it kept me intrigued the whole time. I watched all of it within two days. The ending was bittersweet. It really was, but then, how could it be anything other than that with her having two loves. I'm not one to write reviews but I had to put something out there to give a more balanced perspective. All of the characters were well written and acted. The only thing "Top Gun" related at all was that the two main male characters were pilots. I did enjoy them showing off. For 6 episodes, this was wrapped up nicely without a cliffhanger. Well done. Forget the terrible reviews. Please give it a chance.

It looks nice
shazzawatchestelly21 February 2023
Look I'm not going to lie. I only semi-watched this in between doom scrolling on my phone.

And if I'm doom-scrolling then I'm not terribly engaged. I missed important details like what year it actually is because there's 80s stuff like cassettes and bad hair but then there's the blue/dark insta-filter stuff which is presumably the dystopian future, but it's a bit actually nicer than the rest of the Netflix dystopian futures on offer. There's alot of splicing past and present and a cornfield moment that makes for some lovely imagery.

I suspect this was about cinematography rather than storyline. I really should have paid attention to find out who everyone was too.

There's also an annoying toxic masculinity/frat boy vibe that reeks of Tom Cruise's sweaty cologne in Top Gun. The characters don't seem especially likeable. There was completely naked shagging in a carousel if that spins your wheels. This scores a 2 for the attractive visuals, but otherwise what seemed like a reasonable premise but totally failed to live up to it.

Waste of time
danvalentin-299343 March 2023
One of the WORST serios I have ever seen. The story could have been a 120 minutes movies. They keepextendig it and extending it with no point. There is no big plot twist....nothing, just a never-ending snooze fest. The only way I would re-watch it is if I would have any troubble getting to sleep. It took me like to weeks to finish it because I kept falling asleep at it. There is no real dive in how the future world really looks like. There are some pointless ideas that go nowhere and are totally disappointing, like the mistery behind why or how the astronaut remained young for 30 years. It is just a stupid, cringy story about an old lady still in love with some guy she met for a month 30 years ago. I mean how dense can you be to have such an interesting premise about space hibernation and youth and you decide making the main focuse about an undecided old lady's feelings. HUGE opportunity missed to make an interesting sci-fi series. And the acting is terrible.

thought that it may had potential ? !!
flejklw19 February 2023
When I read the synopsis I immediately thought of the film " Castaway ", accept of course Tom Hanks was actually the husband, but anyhow, astronaut after 30 years returns to earth, the spin on the series was however more complex.

The complexity actually spoiled the whole series, mainly because Nico, the returning astronaut was not that great, and Bogdan the second so called love in Marta's life was not that great of a character either.

I thought that this series had great potential , but alas it made little sense. Marta's character seemed in some way artificial when it came to an honest relationship, certainly didn't make any sense when it came to her marital status. Could not see her lasting a few years with anyone never mind 30 years.

Bogdan had the personality of a dry bit of toast, even when Marta buttered it, he was not much better, he was like a school kid rather than a fighter pilot, I do repeat a fighter pilot.

At least Helen Hunt in Castaway showed a little more class. Overall I guess the storyline had some scope hence the 1 star, but to be honest 8 episodes is far too many for what could be squeezed into 3-4.

The ending pretty much summed up 8 tedious episodes, not worth sitting through them all.

A waste of digital space Netflix!
kelvinjoebrown21 February 2023
Don't waste 6 episodes of your precious time. I had to watch it all just to see it nose dive even more and to see how bad the ending was. Top Gun v interstellar v a James Bond villain and a title sound track reminiscent of Stranger Things.

How can a series with bad acting, an unimaginative script, bad storytelling even bad storylines.

I'm getting fed up of sub standard films and stories being thrown out at a rate of knots in Netflix, Amazon Prime, Paramount and sometimes Apple TV. It's not what I imagined paying my good money to.

Because we have all these films and series at the tip of our fingers, our attention span is shorter. We need instant stimulation, good storytelling, gripping storylines, not able to predict what happen next.

We can do better than this, can't we?

So Disappointed In This Series and the Ending!!
PalmBeachG21 February 2023
Have watched a few Polish Dramas in the past so thought I would give this a try and also usually love space themed and astronaut themed dramas in the past as well. The best thing about this series was the few plane scenes where you can get the feeling of a rush from speed and competition amongst buddies in the air. Other than that, the one ML (astronaut) has beautiful blue eyes, sexy look and just a sexy guy. Forget everything else. First, it was hard to go back and forth from past and present many times as the buddies were dressed in the same uniform and there were dim-lit scenes that made it difficult to distinguish to me at times who was who. Then trying to remember the young FL vs. The old FL (I just thought red hair vs. Blonde & bangs), etc . Went back and forth many times. And then the ending - no, no, no!!!!! That's all I will say on that.

Such a waste of time

If you looking and expect this series will look like star wars trilogy, lost in space, another life or insterstellar then you was really wrong. No, but this series is similar to sex/life and 365 days trilogy. This series is more to a romance genre and has a bit good scifi element about the future device but its not the main focus. The plot and stories not really good. The main character, marta was really unlikeable because she was really annoying and only think about herself. The decision making by many character also is unlogical and not too smart. The cinematography is good similar to 365 days series (polish product) but you know their stories not that good based on my experience. In the end you feel like wasting time after completed watching this series.
