I think this is a good series. It’s a mix of humor, special effects, and a great story. I believe Walton Goggins gives an excellent performance in this series. I really enjoyed it.

I absolutely loved it. To see Fallout in this way was breathtaking, with us seeing post war and pre war Los Angeles as well as a new vault, was already a massive expansion to the Fallout universe. Along with the new characters and the brill...

What a cool show! I really enjoyed this. From start to finish, the vibe and mix of humour and despair was a lot of fun. I remember playing the games years and years ago, and from what I can remember they nailed the world. It feels (almost) ...

Fallout is definitely worth a view it’s amazing as well as clever. Some people complain about it being woke which isn’t the case, this isn’t Netflix. Can’t wait for season 2!

Genuinely great video game adaption that manages to walk the narrow path of capturing the feel of the games (the dark humor), while telling a brand new story that works as a television show and expanding that existing universe. Walton Go...

Its starts with "THE END", which is probably advice I should have heeded and walked away then but well, silly me.... In short, cringe-worthy, woke, overdoses on schmaltz to the point of nausea....a lame story doesn't help, either, nor do...
