Review of Trial by Fire

Trial by Fire (2023)
3/10
Story of a real event that is poorly told
26 January 2023
From the start of this series it is very clear that it would have interest only for a specific target audience. One that perhaps is familiar with the incident. The way the story is told is very disjointed. There is little or no context provided, so as the story unfolds, there is a profound lack of continuity. Each episode seems to be made up of a series of vignettes, some of which are not connected but just following on one another in a random manner. As the series progresses, it just becomes more and more confusing with some events that are relevant only to an Indian audience, without global appeal. While each streaming platform has to seek to find content for each country, there seems to be a pattern emerging where not the best productions are being funded by Netflix. Perhaps Netflix should review the method used to determine which series gets the "green light" to go ahead to production.
