Captain Fall review

--

Captain Fall is a frankly demmanding series. Focusing on a cartel using a cruise to commit crimes and a well intentioned shmuck to be the literal captain fall guy, it has a rather reptitive plot: bad guys do trackficking, the captain is gaslit into being something nice and pleasant, the victims of traficking suffer even more. It is one of those shows where the bad guys always, and I do mean ALWAYS, win.

Naturally I have little patience for the main characters. The protagonist is well intentioned but still portrayed as too much of a loser, while the crew is amoral and manipulative. The animation is decent, but nothing exceptional. I suppose I do have to credit the staff to have hired people who can speak Tupi to portray the indigenous victims in one episode.

A strong anti-recommendation
