Lost in Space Review

Lost in Space

After crash-landing on an alien planet, the Robinson family fight against all odds to survive and escape, but they're surrounded by hidden dangers.

Netflix's Lost in Space is the retaking of the 1998 movie of the same name; a modern take on the same subject matter, telling a story about a family, The Robinson's, who join the exodus to leave Earth after colliding with the "Christmas Star." 

A compelling family drama nonetheless, with intricate world-building, the effects hold up quite nicely too. Another good thing about the show is its innate ability to lead you to finding your way about the show with the subtle clues it reveals. The writers did well, by allowing you get to know each of the characters with a few flashbacks that show the individual conflicts that they posses underneath.

The villain, Dr. Smith was given too many chances and should've been gotten rid off as early as possible. Dr. Smith as a character lacked depth (in terms of her backstory) as her only motivation is survival.

It's a properly shelled out piece of work which the entire family can enjoy - 7/10.
