Better than Hollywood movies in the same genre

Okay not necessarily BETTER than some classic ones, but it depends on what you're into. Good time loop stories tend to try to be smart and clever, with characters using the time travel mechanic in interesting ways in order to propel the story forward. Reset's not really that kind of story. Characters do utilize time loop mechanics, but the purpose of the time loop is not really for the characters. The true purpose is to inspire a viewer's interest in learning ABOUT the characters. We open up to a scene with various people we don't know; they're stuck in an unusual, highly dangerous situation, and the only hope of anyone surviving is to understand why a certain event takes place, which requires delving into everyone's past. In this show, the time loop functions more like a narrative style; just as a book or script might flash back to a point in the past in order to explain the present, the show flashes back, except in a literal sense. And it does this very, very well.

I'd argue that the individual elements of this show are fairly mundane. The characters themselves don't break much boundaries. The editing style and camera work aren't revolutionary either. However, the way the pieces fit together is so harmonious that this is a show I come back to whenever I think I want to watch a good show. It feels like telling a familiar tale through a slightly nontraditional lens. If dramas are culinary dishes, there are some that might be edgy, Michelin star experiences where you feel just a little out of sorts because it's very new and exciting, yet slightly uncomfortable. This is a home-cooked meal by your grandma, where there's just something different about it that no other chef can replicate, because it was made with love and just suited to your taste. There are no ingredients added just to draw your appetite. There's no caviar, no gold leaf, no wagyu steak. Just wholesome, good quality components that, if you were to never have it again, you'd miss far more than any Wolfgang Puck creation. Yet if you were to explain why your grandma's cooking is so good, there's no individual part that you can name. This show is sort of like that. Everything is just harmoniously mixed together, so things flow so smoothly, and in a way it's nice that there's nothing in particular that stands out, because they all mesh together very well.

Give it a go. It will leave you feeling warm, much more so than any cold blockbuster movie.
