The Sandman: Grade the Premiere of Netflix’s Vast Neil Gaiman Adaptation

The Sandman: Grade the premiere from The Sandman: Grade, Netflix’s Vast Neil Gaiman adaptation The Sandman, Netflix’s long-awaited adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s comics begins “in the world of waking

that humanity insists on calling the real world as if desires have no impact on your choices,” the main character, Morpheus, tells us at the beginning of the series’ first episode.

We observe a raven following the carriage of a horse and taking off into an alternate world, Morpheus — aka Dream, the Lord of the Dreaming, also known as King of Dreams and many other names adds “There is a new life to come when you shut your eyes and enter my world.”

In reality, The 10 episodes of Season 1 episodes that started streaming on Friday plunge viewers into the Dream’s realm, a once beautiful and rich play area (think massive golden doors to a world where dragons play)

which begins to fall apart when the lord of the kingdom leaves “to chase a rogue dream,” as he tells us. He is imprisoned for over one century. In a second we’ll be interested in hearing what you thought of the Sandman’s debut. But first, a quick recap:

Morpheus (played by the Sweetbitter’s Tom Sturridge) sets off to hunt down the previously mentioned nightmare serial killer with eyes where they ought to be and that is known as The Corinthian (The Afflictive’s Boyd Holbrook).

Then he swiftly tracks The Corinthian back to Berlin and is trying to put an end to the frightful nightmare, when we hear the sound of chanting and Morpheus is taken away to a different place completely.
