Amazon is taking a big risk with Fallout, a massive, pricey series that must tell a new tale in the video game’s setting while satisfying fans. Additionally, attracting new viewers to make it a huge success. As a fan of the series, I thought the game was great. I’ve seen all eight episodes and came to love the series. The trailers suggested they would succeed, and I think they did.
The tone, visuals, and thorough attention to game world detail differ from other adaptations that aim to forge their own route. This is very true to the games while not being a pure adaptation, even though it has a fundamental premise: A vault dweller must find their father on the surface.
1. Fallout fans will not disappointed
This vault dweller is named Lucy, and Ella Purnell, who plays Yellowjackets, is playing the role of Lucy in what I would argue is a turn that will make her a star. Despite the fact that her naiveté and innocence are gradually affected by the horrors of the wasteland, this is not a complete Joker arc, and she continues to uphold her fundamental principles even as she becomes extremely comfortable shooting a variety of different things.
I also appreciated the performance of Aaron Moten, an actor I was wholly unfamiliar with before this, but as Maximus, a squire of the Brotherhood of Steel, he takes on a personality I was not expecting of “awkward dopey dude” but somehow I mean that as a compliment, as he’s a long ways from the badass soldier you’d expect from the Brotherhood, sort of a boy thrown into a man-suit (literally, in this instance) and a far cry from the usual grizzled combat veteran you might expect to be playing this part.
Along with that, there is Walton Goggins, of course. It was unanimously agreed upon that his performance as a ghoul was just perfect, and guess what? It is absolutely correct. In spite of the fact that Goggins is a badass, somewhat villainous ghoul gunslinger with a CGI-ed out nose, there are lengthy stretches of the show that focus on his time before the war as a Clint Eastwood-type movie star who begins shilling for Vault Tec while gradually learning the company’s actual plans. However, you might not realize just how much of a dual role it is.
Jonathan Nolan, famed for his work on Westworld, is the creator of this series, and as a result, it features mysteries that are typical of Nolan’s work. Although many fans may be intimately familiar with some of these, such as “the vaults are actually bad and terrifying most of the time,” the manner in which they are bad is still something that you will be interested to learn about. Then there are greater questions. What is this object that everyone in the Wasteland is looking for and has been searching for? Why did Lucy’s father disappear without a trace? In the hills, who is this warlord that we see? What has kept Goggins’ ghoul alive for such a long time, and what is it that he is still searching for?
Despite the fact that not all of these questions are answered by the time the episode is over, this is not Netflix or Max, where we have to wait around and bite our nails to find out if the mysteries will continue on forever after the show has been canceled. Everything points to Amazon believing in this show, and they are already working on the second season.
The tone is perfectly captured here. Featuring gore, profanity, sex, nudity, and everything else imaginable, this series has a hard-R rating. In a manner that does not feel exploitative for its own sake, but rather in a manner that is similar to the games in most respects. Once more, the level of attention to detail in this game is exceptional, from the replica weapons and Stimpaks to the architecture of the vault sets and the computer-generated imagery (CGI) of the wasteland, which never appears to be fake. At the same time as a program like The Last of Us was required to establish a world that was in some way destroyed, Fallout was required to expand the scope of its universe by three floors, and they succeeded in doing so.
“Don’t Lose Your Head” is a line from the Fallout games, particularly Fallout 4. It is often linked to the quest “The Silver Shroud,” in which the player becomes a rogue hero. The phrase sums up the vigilante’s philosophy, telling players to keep calm and keep going in tough situations in the game’s post-apocalyptic world.

Complaints? Not many. You don’t care about much until the last minutes since it’s so entertaining. The “pass the MacGuffin object around” plot sometimes relies too much on happenstance. With so many narratives, the show starts off jarring, but it settles down. I liked that this episode covers all aspects of Fallout, from survival in the Wasteland to Goggins’ pre-war narratives and Lucy’s brother’s vault riddles. Very good.
I’d be surprised if Fallout fans stopped like the show and wanted more. I can’t tell how its lunacy will play with general audiences, but I think it will do well and return for one or more seasons. Enjoy the movie!
