We are all aware of Chernobyl Nuclear disaster in Russia. On April 26th, 1986,
the world witnessed one of the most bizarre nuclear explosions, which was worse
than Hiroshima and Nagasaki. When comparing the two atomic explosions, the
Chernobyl explosion released 400 times more radioactive material into the
Earth’s atmosphere than the Hiroshima atomic bomb. A lot of films,
documentaries, and television shows have been made on the Chernobyl catastrophe
like Chernobyl Diaries and HBO’s Chernobyl. Now, Netflix is stepping up to give
us more content on the same topic.

After so much content already out there, Netflix has finally opened the gates to
Chernobyl 1986. The Netflix film explores a firefighter’s life. After reuniting
with his lost love, he retires to start a new life. But the Chernobyl disaster
stabs back in danger again. The film has received a lot of mixed reviews. It
will be not an easy ride for the audience. The film is dark, emotional, and has
a lot of disturbing sights.

CRITICS REVIEWS ON CHERNOBYL 1986 (NETFLIX)

The film has scored 5/10 on IMDb [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10648714/]. There
are no critics scored on Rotten Tomatoes and for the audience score, the film
has a score of 20%.

According to AIPT
[https://aiptcomics.com/2021/09/20/chernobyl-1986-romantic-ussr-russia/], “A
flawed movie that tries to tell a personal tale surrounded by a large tragedy.
There are some moving moments, but the lack of strong characters is noticeable.”

Ready Steady Cut claims
[https://readysteadycut.com/2021/07/21/review-chernobyl-1986-netflix-film], “The
part I love so deeply is the attachment of the human psyche to the movie’s
overall theme. The standout thing in Chernobyl 1986 is its action sequences. The
raw and realistic action sequences capture the utter madness of the disaster
with the help of Kseniya Sereda’s energetic camera movements, and with the
complementary background score by Oleg Karpachev, creating the atmosphere of the
entire setting. I found parallels with the opening visuals of Steven Spielberg’s
Saving Private Ryan, with some of the scenes of action and tension.”

RBC explains [https://style.rbc.ru/impressions/607810cb9a7947cfcf862734], “A
long and predictable exposition is suddenly crowned with the first action scene:
The hero rushes toward the fire, dead birds fall from the sky, the green forest
turns red and the people turn grey. This scene shakes the viewer up and
illustrates why camerawoman Ksenia Sereda will soon begin filming a blockbuster
series

for HBO.”
