I also personally enjoy Foundation, but I know that take is a bit more controversial.
I think Apple gives a lot more free rein to its creators. For the Dr. Dre biopic they let it be made and then shelved it.
Another notable exception was they allegedly wouldn’t let Jon Stewart talk about China.
The acting was good, the cinematography and sets, and costumes too: but not worth the watch, as it says nothing original, new, or interesting. It falls into 'content' for me, something rehashed to make money first and tell a story second. To each their own.
It was based on a book... and that kind of ending (the finickiness of details) works far better in a literary setting, in a film the connections seem arbitrary and ad hoc.
