The series starts with one army which is trying to cross a shadow which is kind of a wall between two worlds. Both sides people are trying to cross the borders for their personal benefits. But in between some people doing politics based on this shadow. This series has a simple story which presented very nicely. Characters are nicely shown and we able to connect with the characters which influence our interest in the series. Location and costume designs are very well made which looks rich, interesting. Realistic VFX scenes are impressive throughout the series. All actors well-acted and they are suitable for their roles. This series has all things which we expect from fantasy series/movies like good VFX, a perfect villain, magical elements, etc. The series has unexpected twists and turns which surely surprise us.

Movie Review:

This series has a total of 8 episodes each episode is 45–58 minutes long. This series does not have any sexual, nudity elements but some sexual references are given at some places. Netflix gave an age restriction of 16+ but I guess kids can watch this show. Based on your comfort watch it with your family.

The series starts with one army which is trying to cross a shadow which is kind of a wall between two worlds. Both sides people are trying to cross the borders for their personal benefits. But in between some people doing politics based on this shadow. This series has a simple story which presented very nicely. Characters are nicely shown and we able to connect with the characters which influence our interest in the series. Location and costume designs are very well made which looks rich, interesting. Realistic VFX scenes are impressive throughout the series. All actors well-acted and they are suitable for their roles. This series has all things which we expect from fantasy series/movies like good VFX, a perfect villain, magical elements, etc. The series has unexpected twists and turns which surely surprise us.

If you talk about negative parts then the series has a slow but interesting phase. So if you are not a fan of slow-going series then you might dislike this one. Some logics are not properly explained like a crossing shadow is a big problem for the army. Also, the army lost several people in between crossing shadow. But at the same time, some people are crossing shadow easily and doing travel in between both worlds. Also, people from both sides are getting every update about each other's world. This thing confused me somewhere.

Overall I can say this is one of the must-watch series.

Positive points of the movie:

Good story, nicely presented characters, good VFX, and great acting.

Negative points of the movie:

Slow phase and some logic are not properly explained.
