A side note, for side characters, the tatooed racist biker guy being resleeved as the grandma, and the random dude used to as a sleeve for the hacker did such a great job in projecting these characters from within. Especially the biker guy. It started as a "haha, racist biker guy is now a hispanic grandma" but by the time he/she departs you don't even notice it's a bearded tatooed biker guy--it's her grandma. Just excellent!

Right!!! That is such an amazing feat

The thing with Rei's character is that she's the embodiment of what happens to a perfectly normal, caring person when they are subjected to life in this world. She's the very definition of why Quell arrived at the decision to limit human life to 100 years. So Rei is validation for Takeshi that the path of the Envoy was correct. What they were fighting for was the right cause.

It could enable you to go in and out of the "matrix", and A.I. will follow you everywhere as an assistant. It could all be possible using the "backup" channel. It could have gone deeper, exploring consiouness and self aware. Oh... And no robots?!! Common!! Armored robots sleeves? It would be amazing. Now Westworld! That was great! For me it matches Game of thrones.

So the only question for Lucy or Tam: Are you a believer?

Surprised that in a 30 minute review there was no mention of the acting? There are some performances that are genuinely the best I may have ever seen on TV. A tatoo'd bearded man with a thick Russian accent one minute becomes a sympathetic, wonderful old Latina woman the next. Also the Vernon's spouse coming back in a man's skin and his slow acceptance and affection towards his wife regardless of gender was incredibly convincing. Best TV show in years on so many levels!

The acting from the main cast was bland and overacted. If acting was mentioned, then if anything, it would've been discussed as a negative, because the acting overall in this show is slightly below average. Joel Kinneman was an absolute bore. I enjoyed the Latina actress who played the cop because I believed her character, but even she was stilted by bad writing. Fortunately, the bad acting is overshadowed by how awesome the lore, the world, and the SFX are in the show. It's complete eye-candy.

I'm on episode 6 and so far it's fantastic. It's not Blade Runner, it's simpler, but it's not a bad thing. Joel Kinnaman - I never knew he's such a good actor. Dude steals the show with his subtle performance.

I loved it so much and it’s great to see a review that feels the same! I’ve honestly not felt so invested in the ending to a show in a very long time. I do take some issue with your interpretations of Quell and Rei. Both of them were idealized versions of the people in Tak’s head (Rei as the sweet sister, Quell as his inner strength) so when we finally ‘meet’ the real people they are much more than his mind’s versions of them, pretty much like anyone-the idealized and the real. In reality Quell was a person trying to lead a revolution against her own creation that she knew was a long shot at best but had convinced everyone including herself that they could win. Rei OTOH was actually a hardened woman who was sold to the Yakuza at a young age and had been abused on many levels until she fought her way to the top. Her life and Tak’s had been very different after he was arrested, so when Tak insisted that their future lay with the resistance she went reluctantly and only for him. A soldier turned revolutionary is a very romantic notion but a woman who knew only abuse, violence, and exploitation her entire youth would have no rose-colored glasses and only saw the revolution as a waypoint on her and her brother’s trip away from their hellish pasts. Without Tak’s idealism to ground her her survival mechanisms reverted back to violence, and exploitation. She lived to find Tak’s stack and get her brother back no matter what the cost because she’d lost her heart and her soul centuries ago. It may just be because I love Dichen Lachman so much but I didn’t quite expect her to be the big bad, especially coming off being one on Agents of SHIELD. Good talk. ;)

What I love about this show was the erasure of boundaries that separate us. Religion, Race, Sexuality or Gender are all pretty much blended. We had a women inside a man and her husband still loved her. We had an Asian man in the sleeve of white man. An elderly Latina woman inside a caucasian biker. It was thrilling to watch something like this. What i hope is Netflix needs to make a 2nd season. Also Ortega was my favorite bad ass of the show. She seemed angry because of the corrupt system she is a part of and is wishing to find ways to give the world justice.

She is correct it is fucking brilliant.

Altered Carbon is probably my favorite Netflix original. Also, I loved the episode "Nora Inu". It tied so many threads together so nicely, and it really showed why so many of the important characters in the series have the motivations they do. Brilliant series.

Two thoughts about this commentary... Quell, the creator of the technology, is effectively a programmer, a software and hardware designer. All software has bugs or potential exploits, ways to use it that it wasn't designed to be used. Probably backdoors the original coder put there... She's teaching the Envoys how to use (hack) the technology in a way others don't know it can be used... Think of Neo in the Matrix... The way she is speaking is the way a person might define rules of technology or mathematics. There's a precision to it, a system of control. Also, with Rei, she's a Sociopath. She was broken as a child by the violence surrounding her parents (She wears her mother's necklace to remind her to NOT be like her mother) and with Takeshi forced to leave her, she had no one to rely on to help put the pieces back together, she splintered. She chose to shut down her emotional self for ever. Her complete disregard of anyone else (including her brother) except when it suits her shows that she is a full on sociopath! There is no redeeming her and her brother knows this by the end!

She betrayed them because she wanted to live... Seems like a pretty good reason to me. A big theme of the story was also the concept of loosing your humanity after living too long and having too much power. This was why she became the villain in the end and had to go.

The flashback episode was one of my favorites. This show is so awesome its like Blade Runner but with more action and fun!

The reason for Rei's behaviour is definitely relatable... To a psychopath. And it therefore is completely believable. Why wouldn't she be one after growing up in an abusive home, witnessing her mother's death, being seperate from her brother the only person she could trust and then being sold to the yakuza and trained to be utterly ruthless. Then on top of all that to gain so much unlimited power as a Meth, and live for multiple centuries, and become completely insane. It is entirely possible that her motivations have relevance and believability.

If this show gets a second season I really want to see more Envoy Tak, as well as the backstory to Quell. Then a season three that explores the Elder Civilization.

This is the first Netflix show that i binged in a week. I'm actually going to watch again.

Amazing job reviewing the show, I love it!

You forget, there was a "human" moment b/t Quell & Takeshi on the lake when she's explaining the whole stack thing.

I absolutely love this show. Binged the entire season between last night and this morning.. I went back to the first episode after watching episode 8 to reference some scene, then I found myself rewatching all the episodes (before I watched the last 2). I'm glad I did so; it gave me a chance to catch several details that I missed the first time around. One the other hand, I fast forwarded through most of Ortega's appearances. I don't hate her character, I just don't care for her so much (plus, I really wanted to watch the last 2 eps!). Oh, one question: does everyone speak all languages? A few of the characters were switching between their native languages and english, and no one batted an eyelash, or asked for clarification at all. One another note, I have gotten the book.How can I not? I'm sure that there's so much more to this world, I'm up to chapter 10, and there a a lot of changes so far. Glad I was able to appreciate the show on it's own merit before I read the book.

Anyone know what the background music is called??? Has that Stranger Things vibe.

Will there be a season 2 ?

What’s the name of the fairy tale at the end?

I definitely watched all 10 episodes in a row (RIP Saturday). Excellent show, everything I was hoping it would be! Now to read the book.

Brought the book as well, can't wait to read it!

I construed that when he'd be talking to or haunted by those "ghosts" in a sense it was revealing the lingering mental effects of the being in stasis for so long, there were glitches, and showing the digital versus visceral memory.

This show was awesome, so complicated and Intricate, with so many subplots, I am going to enjoy watching it again. During the watch there were so many elements that I forgot and was lost in, that will make so much more sense knowing the full story, as well as knowing what to FFWD thru, some scenes took forever....or so it seemed.

I didn't hear you mention that Quell created the Sheath tech so she could explore the universe, and was furious that it was being misused, so why do we think she is at all dead? I am pretty sure that she was present in her training camp as a sheath. I will be shocked if it isn't revealed that she has also been alive all this time. Spreading her philosophy subversively, and making her plans, going mad the way all the other immortals seem to be going.

Ooh love that Angel and Poe comparison, Lorne and Poe are totally the much needed lighthearted characters that while not being human, they bring that humanity.

I have a question who Ortega said Goodbye to? Original Kovacs or Synthetic? And what happened to Ryker?

Eraj Nadeem Kovacs is in Rkyer’s sleeve. When Kovacs came back from “Head in the clouds” he came back to Ortega and said that he was the one she said goodbye to.

Maybe it's because I watched too much Futurama, but the casual way so many characters disregard their "sleeves" is really funny to me. In fact, I had a hard time taking a lot of those stuff in this show seriously because it's constantly reminding me of Futurama.

I have seen Futurama for over a dozen times, yet I can see only very abstract parallels. I see more parallels with Blade Runner and Total Recall. As for disregarding the Sleeve, ...wouldn't anyone, knowing as long as your Stack remain intact you are almost immortal? If you outlive that experience, pain is just an umpleasent experience. You gain a very high tolerance to what is happening to your Sleeve.

My frame of reference for James Purefoy, is his most notable role playing Mark Antony, in HBO’s ROME. He was full frontal in that one too.

Korvac is actually seen in 5 body, 6 if you count when he impersonate the police chief in VR

I've never been so happy to be out of a job so I could binge watch the shit out of this series!

Wow, you've got great reviews that help bring us more of a taste of the story we have instantly fallen in love with. I find this show reflects all of our best and some of the worst science fiction and brings it together in very strong result. Sorry, I love Quellchrist Falconer and I love Renee playing her, although I was with you early on when I was like, why are you getting guidance from your dead guru? For me, the chracter's role and the surprises related to her character in the awesome episode 7 pulled so much of the show together. That said, I would never have found you if not for this show. I'll be coming back to see some of your other reviews in future and obviously I'll be watching every episode related to Altered Carbon for each of it's seasons, however long that may be.

You'll also want to check out the RPG: Eclipse Phase - also based on the books - that dives heavily into sleeves, stacks, needle-casting, clones and stopping existential threats to the human race in space.

This is one AMAZING series it will keep you on your toes AMAZING BRAVO

I just love Lucy❤️

This review felt like it came directly from the lady reviewer until the bloke starts talking about Ortega and how amazing she is. Honestly loved this review by the end. I’ve seen season 1 at least 8 times. One of my favourite shows on Netflix and y’all did it justice

I do agree with her on the point of the world feeling real immediately. Like even without being explained excessively it feels like a future natural extension of this world similar to Blade Runner in aesthetics and the feel of the world.

The show kinda lost me towards the end. Started storng as a Blade Runner esque commentary on the nature of humanity and the horors of our own hubris. But it seemed to devolve into just a sci fi action show. The world building was great and the perfomances across the board were spectacular, but I'm a person who prefers slow burn type shows, so the constant action kind of turned me off. Overall a good show, but not what I was expecting.

Some of the best looking works of cyberpunk, for those who like Blade Runner/Altered Carbon: Blade Runner, Altered Carbon, Ghost in the Shell (the original anime), Deus Ex.

best sci-fi show ever. thanks for this awesome breakdown.

my biggest grips are that it was played back at a high frame rate and there was almost exclusively handheld camera movement, probable for budget, that bothered me and it interrupted the story.

I just started watching altered carbon last night and really like it so far. But I needed to check with this vid to make sure I didn’t miss anything.😁

People need to watch this!

Dude her character was amazing. She is the "leader of the revolution" is because we see her the way Covatch sees her. It's not how she really is. It's now he remembers her.

This has become my favourite Altered Carbon review on two accounts: 1. Someone FINALLY talks about the deeply entrenched themes of the moral and existential horrors of end stage capitalism in cyberpunk, and why AC goes to show that this is ultimately a BAD thing. Like the show goes to great lengths to point out, death was the ultimate equaliser: regardless of who you are, eventually at one point, you are going to die. With the Meths basically having commodified life and death itself, AC actually poses a very pointed question of 'If the ultra-wealthy have commodified death to the point of immortality, what does it even mean to be human in the future?' And finally, perhaps most importantly of all 2. Y'all ACTUALLY know how to pronounce Takeshi's last name. I'm serious. Before this, I'd watch two videos in succession where the creators COULD NOT for the life of them, pronounce Takeshi's last name. Drove me mad. Keep up the awesome work, guys.

Oh that's where I knew him from. He played Wei Shen.

I like to think of the show as a Mish mash of blade runner (for the theme), Ghost in the shell ( for the sleeve aspect and and some characters) and Elesium (for the contrasts between meths and grounders and how they live) and other aspects as well

Since spoilers are allowed here (book including) Love the show as well as the book. I would have loved to see an ending scene similar to the book though, with Kovacs going through those doors one last time in Ryker's sleeve while Ortega watched. I liked the little moment they shared before that and how he reacted after. Ortega's "Good luck Takeshi Kovacs." was sweet but it didn't hit me as hard in the feels as the book. Regardless, I hope there will be more in the future.

love this show

Finally...a GREAT scifi show to watch! This is amazing!

I enjoyed the show, now I'm curious about the book.

I like kovacs back story of being an envoy hope to see more in season 2

I enjoyed the show for what it was. Had its weak points, but this is easily one of the best representations of a truly cyberpunk setting with all of its hallmarks (save for perhaps replacing megacorps with the individual top 1%'ers. Doesn't hurt that it had a *staggering* concentration of attractive actors.

Despite it being somewhat derivative, I loved this show because: the aesthetic is just incredible (whether you like the aesthetic of this style of cyberpunk determines how much you and I are gonna be friends), the characters are really interesting and provocative, I fucking love modern noire and this is noire as fuck, it's dripping with it and it is delicious, and finally.. the setting. They have a very simple concept: The Stack. And they do SO much with the concept, that it just truly pays off of in it in practically every way. On great aspect of cyberpunk (which is seen in stuff like Deus Ex) is transhumanism, and the Stack is a brilliant intersection into that. Mechanically, I think the stack is perfect for storytelling. Just the idea of "she blew her stack out" is so evocative and intuitive and meaningful. The central mechanic of a cyberpunk story can be clumsy or limited, but not here and everything webs out of the simple concept.

the original blade Runner was as straightforward and simple as it gets in (good) Sci Fi... I don't get why everyone feels compelled to praise its complexity, while what made it great was the concept and its superb execution. It had personnality, it was not complex... As for altered carbon, sometime the acting fell flat, and the dialogues could be cringy (but so it was in the book from what I remember. Overall I had a blast, and I liked what was added about Ortega and her familly. And Poe as well, great change in my book (even though the original Elvis was not bad) Also, great production value on the visual and good pacing. however I did not like what they did with Lizzy at the end, it felt forced, pointless, and it seemed to take away a lot of Kovacs competence (which was well demonstrated in Ep 04). And Kovacs sister's obsession with him was not well explained (shown) enough to not come out as nonsensical. Even tought I find it understandable, because to live alone and mistrustful of everyone for so long would, I think, make anyone crazy and obsessive over anything-one they believed was trustworthy. At one point, if there is nothing you can believe in, why go on?

someone needs to make a videogame in the Altered Carbon World

Fantastic series. Love it.

I will definitely be back if there is a season 2, but I’m going to be slightly sad that we won’t be looking at Joel Kinnaman anymore 😂

I didn't really pay attention at the story.... I was so wow with the dolby vision.... It's awesome... One of the best I seen from dolby vision...

I liked it a lot,but will be watching it again. I feel like I missed a bunch..because there is so much on screen.

What I got from this amazing show. Living forever makes u crazy. Anyone agree

@Lucy: The interconnectedness of the show was actually one of my sticking points for the show. As much as I enjoyed it, it felt a bit contrived how neatly all the threads were tied up at the end and how everything and everyone was connected to the main story. A little more messiness would have felt more natural and organic, IMO. But it was certainly impeccably dressed and produced, and like I said, I did enjoy it. It was suitably noir, pulpy and cyberpunk. Is the triple-Kovacs portrayal a riff on the Triple Goddess archetype? If so, that was certainly an interesting take.

Just finished the series and i have to say it was amazing! I don't know why people always want more. I liked the ending and I'm happy with how everyone ended up. It gives something for everyone to do after the show. My least favorite thing is when shows run too many episodes and tie all the ends off, so that no character has anything to do after the show. Maybe that's just me.

omg i said the same thing about that it reminded me of mass effect

Saw the whole show....never I would think that it would be as you would call it a Sci Fi version of GoT...It basically kinda makes sense

I was blown away with 98% of this series from the start. I agree with most of the accolades discussed in this video, except 1 small but critical detail. In the conclusion after all the chips have fallen, Tac has discovered the stack of his lost love exists. But, the philosophy of her is that death is final, it is part of the natural cycle and is needed. With this position I find it very difficult to believe that she would want to ever be respun, especially if her calling was completed. This really undercut the choices of Tac, the Detective, and the direction they chose to exit on for me. Am I the only one that thinks that Tac's lover would prefer to remain dead, despite the premature departure?

This is seriously the only thing I tell my friends who haven't watched it: "it's a sci-fi version of GOT, lots of sex, lots of blood and gore." I also add, "if Blade Runner and Total Recall were mashed together, this show is what the result would be."
