CRITICAL ANALYSIS ​: 

Lost in Space'​ s production values are ambitious enough to attract sci-fi adventure fans,
while the story's large heart adds an emotional anchor to all the deep space
derring-do.With gorgeous effects and a simple,solid story the story is quite intriguing
with each moment leading to a situation that seems daunting and intimidating.Molly
Parker brings​ her usual verve, skill and charisma to the role of matriarch Maureen
Robinson, and ​Parker Posey​ plays her character ingeniously.

​ ost in Space i​ s a wondrous new take on the 1960s series that honors its origins while
L
charting a new course with a modern retelling. The Robinson family is far from perfect,
which makes them more believable characters. The writers’ use of flashbacks provides
more depth and opens up the world for exciting stories to tell in future episodes.

Each episode builds upon the last while also remaining mostly episodic, and as a result,
there’s a curious lack of urgency to the show. This isn’t a bad thing.​Lost in Space​ knows
how to take its time, and pull you along for the journey. You are likely to be hooked by
episode one, and won’t mind getting lost in​ Lost In Space​.

CONCLUSION​ :
One will find very few shows these days that can strike such a palatable balance of
attributes as this one does. It's not very nerdy, yet is science-forward enough to engage.
It's not comedy,but each chuckle is of value. It's not as much a "family show", yet it has
a solid moral compass. It's not blasting explosive action, yet it keeps the pulse high and
the spirit
