'Kaos' review: Can Netflix’s Greek myth series go the distance?

Summary

Nutrition label

64% Informative

Kaos is a dark, soapy take on Greek myths, staying mildly close to their much-interpreted core stories.

Writer Charlie Covell 's observational wit and clear love for the Greek myths comes through his ill-fated narrator, Prometheus .

The show's depiction of such well-known names as Zeus , Hera , and Poseidon feels like theatrical jests.

Jeff Goldblum as Zeus is the big drawcard and marketing emphasis for Kaos .

But the monarch of Olympus is arguably outshone by the other members of the pantheon and the show's human heroes.

The trustiest supporting stars of the series are those who dwell in The Cave, with Izzard and her fellow Fates making me want to join whatever band they're forming.

Kaos is a sumptuous feast on one hand, an intentionally soulless pit on the other.

Set design includes miniscule references to people and places of Greek myth.

Much of the action takes place in the Underworld , where Kaos relies on a black and white filter to represent the lifeless realm.
