    It was pretty good.
    It was not something I would not have seen without the hype.

    It is pretty good. It was not a major smashing thing but was intriguing.
    Probably no need to watch it again . . but worth the watch.

    First thing I did when I got my OLED was get the expensive Netflix, lulz. Then I got an Atmos sound system. Disney+ is 4K UHD compliant too. So is Amazon (The Boys looks great). Mandalorian looks and sounds sexy.

    I still need to give Blade Runner 2049 a go.

    It was good watch. Chess movies are not in my rotation of genres so its definitely different and a good change of pace for me.

    LOTR 4K is coming out in a few weeks I believe. Should be pretty epic if you like those 3 movies.

    Excellent. The lead actress deserves an Emmy, Golden Globe, SAG, and Oscar award. Bloody brilliant.

    I haven’t watched it, but that actress made me feel tingly in Split.

    Wife and I just started this last night and I've really enjoyed it so far, only halfway through 2nd episode, that being said I kind of love Anya Taylor Joy.....

    If people are on the fence, wondering how chess could possibly be exciting on screen, watch it and find out. Taylor-Joy is fantastic.

    Anybody that doesn't like it, is a ghey. Adult Beth Harmon will keep any straight man attuned.

    This show deserves all the Emmys. All the acting performances were very good but the lead actress really blew it out of the water. 5/5 stars.
