1983 (2018)
Surprisingly fantastic!
I watched the first episonde with English audio and gave up after 10 minutes. However, once switching to Polish audio and English subtitles, I was hooked. No, I don't speak Polish. But, listening in the native languge let the actors shine.
Ok, the plot is not perfect. And, there are goofs/mistakes (who hangs an American flag hanging down with the stars on the left?)... but, this is really fun stuff. I love hearing Vietnamese speak Polish and Russian (and vice-versa). The dystopian future set in a "thriving" Poland of 2003 is really interesting. And, the acting is really good.
For those willing to listen in foreign language and read subtitles, this is a great series. Well done Netflix for producing this and I look forward to more foreign-location based content.
