“3 Body Problem” is actually very problematic to understand!
Based on Liu Cixin’s trilogy “The Three Body Problem”. In my opinion the series is quite impressive. But, for the fresh audience it is a tough nut to crack. The novel deals with the unearthly aliens who are coming from a solar system with three suns in it. The gravitational force of these three bodies are creating chaos in the cosmos. The aliens want to invade earth and take control over it. To prevent this action, a group of people are helping the aliens and another group is revolting against it.
The novel also introduces the matter of Video Game. A video game which will transport the player to a different realm and they have to cross the levels.
But, the series differs from the novel in some niches, for example the novel has Wang Miao as the main character. Where in the series it is divided into five different scientists with different backgrounds. The 8 episodes cover the first book almost entirely.
But, the problem rises when it comes to the narrative style, the creators of the “Game of Thrones” didn’t delve deep into the subject matter. They only touched the main topics which is a bit confusing for the audience.
For that reason, “3 Body Problem” got 11M complete season views in the 4th day of debut. Where “The Gentleman” is a great hit. Critics are hoping that on the 2nd week things might take a good turn for 3body. Being a very grand sci fi adaptation it is not getting the hype it deserves, but i personally feel it’s just a matter of time. Soon the majority will understand the amazing world and politics of “3 Body Problem” as well.
