NETFLIX A starkly haunting story of post-war desolation receives a mitigating dollop of Spielbergian whimsy in this adaptation of Simon Stålenhag’s 2018 graphic novel, which is retooled here largely as a Transformers-esque vehicle for Stranger Things’ Millie Bobby Brown.
Set in an alternate version of ’90s America in the aftermath of a quelled robot uprising, the Russo Brothers’ fantasy imagines a world in which mankind’s automated helpers – loveable animatronics with endearingly cartoonish features – have been banished to a vast exclusion zone in the dusty south west.
