Is sandman good? Criticize the Sandman series

 

After years in development, the adaptation of author Neil Gaiman's Sandman stories finally arrives on TV by Netflix. But was the wait worth it? Definitely. Sandman is quite the success of the platform and delivers one of the most elaborate productions of the year, both in terms of performance and in terms of production value. The biggest asset of the attraction, without a doubt, is the meticulous and careful look I had to tell this story so rich in mythology, its characters, their complexities, the kingdoms they live in and their complicated relationships, but super interesting to watch. And just because Gaiman was involved in the production alongside David S. Goyer and Allan Heinberg shows that Sandman took extra care when it came to being transported into other visual media. Sandman is a handful of sand that falls in the middle of half-assed productions that we have available in the platform's catalog that stands out in really managing to attract attention by telling the story of the King of dreams of the kingdom to dream that he is kidnapped by humans, a rich man who pretends to be a magician and illusionist named Roderick Burgess , and is trapped for almost a century and sees the whole dynamic of the universe fall apart when he is not in charge of his kingdom and the waking world is affected for these actions. In fact, what most defines the episodes that make up the first year of Sandman is this: actions taken and taken that generate chain consequences over the years and affect the lives of thousands of people. An event at the beginning of the century, which happens due to the kidnapping of the perpetual entity Morphius, affects the life of the daughter of a businessman who falls into a deep coma and sleeps for years, that of a young woman who finds herself trapped in a marriage with a tyrant. and need to come up with an escape plan, or even, how these actions influence events in the future, in this case the present, where a good part of the episodes take place. Sandman has this epic multigenerational story, full of seductive characters and that really makes us want to marathon the attraction to find out what will happen. The opening combo of episodes focuses on Morphius' quest to recover his precious artifacts that were stolen while he was trapped in his transparent cage in the basement of an English mansion with the help of his faithful ally, the librarian Lucienne and a mocking crow. , Sandman delivers episodes that are almost as a character's journey that visits old friends, allies, and also enemies, whether new or old. mythology. The combo of episodes, one different from the other in terms of characters presented and worlds visited, has its peak in the fourth episode in which Morphius visits Hell and who commands it, Lucifer Morningstar. Visually, this fourth episode is one of the most incredible to watch . In the end, Sandman delivers an impeccable, addictive series that is guaranteed to deliver good stories that at first seem disconnected from each other but come together in an incredibly satisfying way. It's as if we were really about to read a comic book, where the images jump on the screen in an impressive visual quality.
