Dark Season 02 Episode 06 Review!!
Can we really find the edge of a cycle when we are stuck on one of the rems inside the wheel? We move in any direction, we end up rotating with the wheel or find ourselves too deep in the puzzle as the path seems unsolvable. We end up questioning everything that really guides us.
This episode emphasizes on that point more and more. It makes the cycle of events endless and we are on the wheels to try and find a way to break it and go to the edge so that we can fix it, in the way, we see it fit. We can also make think that the story is moving in a certain direction by the halfway mark of it but makers find a way to insert another killing twist.
The cycle does seem endless and working despite all the attempts to change it. We cannot really hope to change the past and think that it logically changes the future. When future becomes the past there is no way to change the present and hence, letting everything go exactly the same way, so that you can end up in similar situation, becomes the order of the day.
Baran bo Odar takes up this point like ab expert and trues to win you over with his now trademark style twisted narrative. He doesn't really give time in this one and the race is on against the time. As someone tries to find a loophole to change things of future, even future tries to act on it as well.
The time travel indeed is a heavy concept but the director with portals introduces new dimension here. This season started off on an underwhelming note but the beats are picking up and the last two seem to have more in store for us than we can handle at the moment.
