Boasting Steven Spielberg among its executive producers, the popular Bungie game franchise finally makes it to the small screen in a new series featuring Pablo Schreiber.
). Boasting no technological innovation to speak of, few performances to offer meaningful grounding and only limited action thrills,The series begins in the year 2552 on Madrigal, described as a “Tier 4 Heavy Water Extraction Planet.” Inhabitants of Madrigal are suffering under the lash of the colonizing United Nations Space Command . They’re already on the verge of revolt when the planet is attacked by Covenant forces.
The head of the Spartan squad is Master Chief Petty Officer John-117 — “Master Chief” to some, “Chief” to others, “John” to a random few — and he is entrusted with bringing Kwan back to the UNSC stronghold of Reach. Master Chief’s cargo also includes a strange relic that appears to have been the source of Covenant interest.
The second episode is almost entirely devoid of action, built around a reunion between Master Chief and a former Spartan colleague named Soren on a settlement known as The Rubble, a nicely realized piece of production design. Woodbine is so good and so instantly likable, and he gives Soren a distinctly individual personality in a series in which human, robot and alien alike are variations on automatons. You can almost ignore that, as presented here, the character is basically Lando Calrissian.
