ALTERED CARBON EPISODES 1&2
Watchable. SF based on sex and violence. Hot Joel Kinnaman and beautiful, slender Kristin Lehman in some of the leading roles. Old science fiction motifs return, like from "Elysium" where the poor live on the ground in a derelict city while the rich occupy an edifice in the sky. Regular people are juxtaposed with Mats (short from Matusalem) - consciences inhabiting human-like sleeves for hundreds of years - and with AIs with minds quite of their own and even thinking of taking over power. Messages are passed via a cornea transfer so that you see the event with your eyes directly. A hotel is armed to protect its clients. The murder serves as a cliffhanger ending episode 1 but not in episode 2 since it ends in philosophical deliberations. The music over the final credits differs too and the score after ep. 2 is better than the tune after ep. 1.
