Exemplary
CHERNOBYL is an excellent depiction of the infamous nuclear explosion that occurred in Ukraine back in 1986. I've previously read a book on the topic so I had some understanding of what took place, but this miniseries is even better. Over five carefully-paced episodes it really gets into the heart of the matter, depicting the science and circumstances behind the explosion and the failures that led to it happening in the first place. It also extensively depicts the fall-out and clean-up operations that were required afterwards. On top of all this, it's a character-focused drama in which the human cost is always at the forefront. Three exemplary performances from Jared Harris, Stellan Skarsgard and Emily Watson lead the way and the smaller roles are equally special. Doubtlessly the best TV show of the year, and one of the best of all time.

Can't re-watch it again
I was 13-14 when I watched this movie. It's a long movie if I recall it correctly. I was so moved by it's theme, so I watched it all. I had strong feelings of sadness and sympathy towards little robot David that wanted to be a real child and to have a mom to love him. And that little bear ... I cried during some scenes. I don't ...
