Netflix's six-episode limited series 'Below' has debuted to mixed but generally positive reviews, with critics praising its Newfoundland setting and Josh Hartnett's performance while debating whether the runtime dilutes the creature horror elements.
Netflix's new limited series Below, starring Josh Hartnett, has debuted to generally positive reviews, earning an 82% score on Rotten Tomatoes. Set in the fictional Newfoundland town of Snook's Arm, the six-episode series follows fisherman Calvin Penney as he battles a giant squid and confronts the consequences of climate change and forced resettlement. Critics praise the show's atmospheric visuals and Hartnett's performance but note that the second half of the season feels padded. The series is frequently compared to Apple TV+'s Emmy-winning Widow's Bay, with both shows exploring coastal horror, though Below is more serious and ecologically focused.
