Fallout: Season 1 Reviews
No one should expect too much emotional or psychological depth in Lucy or her occasional allies, since the series focuses more on suspense, action, visual display and how to move forward in the face of endless adversities. [Full review in Spanish]

With Purnell and Goggins leading the charge, the narrative of Fallout Season 1 is quite the addition to this universe that forges its own identity

...it became very clear from the first scene of Fallout, that this show was going to be heartfelt but utterly terrifying.

Fallout leaves you hungry for more as we are left with many questions but not enough answers. It makes us root for its characters while also creating a grim and thrilling political climate that leaves us on the edge.

Fallout might be the best adaptation of a video game to the screen so far; it is undoubtedly a lot better than The Last of Us on HBO because at least Fallout understands the core ideas of its world and brings it to life.

A genuinely great series that understands precisely what it needs to be, as opposed to feeling tied down by the source material.

The best sci-fi series so far this year and far surpasses '3 Body Problem' (Full review in Spanish)

While Fallout is definitely an adult series, with lots of blood, gore, violence and just gruesome acts of terrible-ness, it’s also crazy light-hearted. The humour is unmatched, and doesn’t stand apart, but rather, compliments the darker elements.

It deserves a towering thumb up for being much more than just "okey-dokey." [Full Review in Spanish]

Fallout has just enough guts and gore to not be for everyone, but whether you know the games or not, this television series welcomes everyone with open arms and a knife ready to plunge into your back.

The video game adaptation succeeds where many others have failed.

Recommended for even non-fans of sci-fi: it is a captivating and innovative series, bacause it proposes an unique mix beetween western and science fiction. It belongs to “retrofuturism” and “atomicpunk”, referring to 1950s America and post-war culture.

With its mesmerizing atompunk aesthetic and impressive attention to detail, "Fallout" is a mesmerizing, engaging, pitch-perfect video game adaptation that appeals to both long-time fans and newcomers alike.

In an odd way I think the finale is the weakest part, but definitely not in a way that makes the rest of it not work. It's quite good.

Fallout is spectacular! Jonathan Nolan & Lisa Joy employ their Westworld musings of control, chaos, comfort, desire, and self-discovery to great effect in this Sergio Leone-inspired maze through human depravity.

I will never like this version of Fallout as much as I like just playing the games, but gosh darn it, I am anxiously awaiting Season 2.

The series may not rise to the same heights as The Last of Us, but it embodies the similar nuanced storytelling that made the Pedro Pascal vehicle a hit.

You don't need to be familiar with the source video game to enjoy Fallout's antics and factions this May, but it helps to have a stomach for its bouts of rude, gory mayhem.
Full Review | May 6, 2024
The season is thus an [entertaining] exposition dump in many ways. We're experiencing the present through the eyes of not-so-innocent-anymore innocents while learning about the past through the memories of a grizzled vet.
Full Review | Original Score: 8/10 | May 3, 2024
The actors were all good, and the Wasteland looked more lived-in and authentic than many modern post-apocalyptic environments, but the characters felt hollow, and the narrative empty of any compelling hook, its arcs weak and listless.
