In April 1986, the Chernobyl nuclear power plant exploded, causing the most calamitous nuclear disaster in history.
How outstanding this five-and-a-half-hour TV film/mini-series is is outrageously beyond comprehension. Directing, acting, editing, writing, direction of photography, visual effects, music, art direction, stunt coordination, sound design, costume design, makeup department, and every other department get a lengthy standing ovation… HBO once more proves that the sky is anything but the limit. Released halfway through the last season of Game of Thrones (2011) – HBO again, Chernobyl, at first, went under the radar, and once the former came to an end, it shone as no other mini-series shone ever before.
Chernobyl will grip you as much as it will terrify you. You won’t even care why the actors speak in their native accents. You won’t even notice. It’s a hauntingly flawless HBO production that perfectly blends history, politics, science, and drama! Behold the atrocious side of human nature unfolding side by side with its oxymoronic, boundless grace.
If you don’t know the facts, it will lay them out for you. If you no longer remember what happened, it will all come back. If you were in any shape or form affected by the horror, now you will live it again.

I have heard nothing but good reviews. Now you have said the same I will watch this now.
Take off the whole day. Five and a half hours to watch it and eighteen and a half hours to recover.
