If you want to talk about the most popular American drama in recent times, it must be Nolan's "Fallout".
Many people will worry that the show will follow in the footsteps of Westworld, but at least not yet... At present, Amazon has directly renewed the second season of "Fallout".
This is already quite fast, after all, the show has only been online for a long time.
Fallout is directed by Jonathan Nolan, the younger brother of the acclaimed director Christopher Nolan, who has also earned wide recognition in the field of writing and directing for his talent.
His American dramas "Suspect Tracking" and "Westworld" have been widely acclaimed, especially "Suspect Tracking" has maintained a high score of 9.6 on Douban.
Based on the apocalyptic game of the same name, Fallout is set in an alternate world where world history and our real world parted ways after World War II.
In this parallel world, scientific and technological development is mainly focused on the application of nuclear energy.
As resources were depleted, tensions between the nations of the world intensified, culminating in a deadly nuclear war in 2077...
The world's great cities were reduced to rubble almost instantly, and the Earth was transformed into a radiant barren land, leaving behind a world of radiation, ruins, and mutated creatures.
In this new world, survival has become the only goal for all.
Human civilization has been almost completely destroyed.
The surviving humans are scattered all over the place, and some of them are hiding in underground shelters, which were established by wealthy families who had prepared them before the outbreak of nuclear war...
Lucy, the main character of the show, is a member of one of these shelters, and she is facing an important turning point in her life when her partner applies for an interview, which is a regular marriage activity within the shelter to avoid inbreeding.
However, Lucy's "illusion" is soon shattered, and her husband and some other members of the Vault are actually surface raiders, who slaughter the inhabitants of another Vault and infiltrate it disguised as Vault members.
After Lucy discovers the truth, her father is also taken by the leader of the marauders, which makes her decide to set off alone and embark on a journey to find her father and avenge the refuge...
However, the world on the ground is more dangerous than she imagined.
All kinds of mutated creatures are rampant...
Even the inhabitants of the surface are divided into several types: ordinary residents, warriors of the Brotherhood of Steel, and radiation mutants known as ghouls.
Overall, I personally feel that the drama version of "Fallout" is still quite good, whether it is a game fan or not, it is very enjoyable to brush.
It's even better if you've played the game, and there are a lot of easter eggs in the show that make people smile...
Now that the second season has finally been renewed, I'm really looking forward to it!
