StartUp (2016–2018)
8/10
Excellent and very relevant.
2 March 2018
One of the most up to date and relevant dramas I've binge watched in recent times, it starts off in explosive, dramatic, hard hitting style, and continues through the series. It's super relevant with all the recent news surrounding Bitcoin, and it certainly does make you wonder how a 'different' currency can actually work, the concept is outrageous to many of us, this drama helps to bring the concept to life. Miami serves as an intriguing backdrop, it conjures up beautiful beaches and sun, but of course the reality is a different matter. Great acting all round, Edi Gathegi, Martin Freeman, Adam Brody and Otmara Marrero all shine in particular. It's hard hitting, sometimes violent, but the violence is delivered with a sense of reality, it isn't needless or done to be sensationalist, just shown in a real way. As a drama it absorbs you, and makes you want to watch just one more episode.
