A slow boat to nowhere, that's the kindest thing I can think of to say about 1899.
A mystery thriller minus the thrills, that's becalmed from the get go and doesn't improve over the poorly navigated, first two episodes.
Its a shame too, as a ton of Euro's were spent on this production. Its therefore unsurprising, that in terms of settings, costumes and atmosphere, this show is spectacular. Unfortunately, its an exquisite banquette setting, where little to nothing is served to the hungry viewer.
Instead, what you are offered, is supposedly meaningful silences, at times clever but disjointed narrative and yet again, regrettably, more woke revisionism.
In summary, well acted, beautifully presented but in terms of storytelling, as deep, dark and desolate, as an ocean trench.
