Apple TV+'s Silo, starring a memorable Rebecca Ferguson, is a promising entry in the dystopian genre. Our review:
For the characters of the Apple TV+ series Silo, life is defined by immense uncertainty. Adapted from the book series of the same name by Hugh Howey, it places us in a dystopian future deep underground where thousands of residents are told that the world above is uninhabitable and going there means death. Skepticism about this reality is baked in from the start — any discussion of the past is not just frowned upon, but heavily criminalized.
There is something rather dour about how Silo is constructed, playing out in the dimly lit underground world where murders and bodies begin to pile up. Some of this is intentional in order to create a juxtaposition against the beauty of the world that supposedly awaits just outside. It squeezes out as much atmosphere as it can from the confined spaces that define the day-to-day lives of the characters and the no-nonsense intensity of Ferguson’s performance.
Although certain episodes can feel like they are going in circles, Silo still draws us into this world with the little moments just as much as the big ones. We see how this society under the ground has become stratified with Juliette and those of the lower levels all being viewed as lesser. This is despite the fact that they keep the entire silo operating, putting their lives on the line to repair the source of all their energy in one of the more thrilling sequences of the series.
