The Queen's Gambit - Season 1
Eight year-old orphan Beth Harmon is quiet, sullen, and by all appearances unremarkable. That is, until she plays her first game of chess. Her senses grow sharper, her thinking clearer, and for the first time in her life she feels herself fully in control. By the age of sixteen, she's competing for the U.S. Open championship. But as Beth hones her skills on the professional circuit, the stakes get higher, her isolation grows more frightening, and the thought of escape becomes all the more tempting. Based on the book by Walter Tevis.

It's a unique sports film that examines feminism while also touching on ominous Cold War politics. "The Queen's Gambit" is one of the most intelligent and engaging Netflix series presently on the streaming platform.

The Queen's Gambit is watchable, but lacks the kind of genuine mystery that would elevate the material beyond that middling bar. It's better than a draw, but not much more.

With its strong themes and understanding of the times, this is a must-see drama this year. This series serves a checkmate in its opening chapters.

Taylor-Joy excels in the quiet moments, her eyelids narrowing as she decimates an opponent, her whole body physicalizing angry desperation when the game turns against her.

The Queen's Gambit manages to personalize the game and its players thanks to clever storytelling and, in Anya Taylor-Joy, a lead actor so magnetic that when she stares down the camera lens, her flinty glare threatens to cut right through it.
