You can't simply run into a show by the eccentric mastermind Nicolas Winding Refn and expect a run by the mill crime drama.

Then this isn't for you. The long takes, beautiful compositions and electronic tunes are here to get the viewer in a certain mood- not to hurry the story along. There are certain works of art that are supposed to communicate thoughts and ideas through visual storytelling. The fact that this episode took its time and lets us get into the headspace of the creator is exactly what made this so fascinating. I think certain audiences are not ready for something quite this experimental on a streaming site.
Loved it, some things didn't quite work for me. But overall I can't wait to see how this plays out.
