The Handmaid's Tale 1x7 Review: The Other Side
The Handmaid’s Tale episode The Other Side has everything we’re supposed to want in a show about an all too plausible dystopia. There’s a slow build from a period of relative calm to a whole lot of action, tragedy, and unexpected twists. But if the rest of the show mostly consists of standing around, with flashbacks to more active times, the ones doing the loitering have become so much more interesting that they are each more watchable than time spent on the run from evil government forces looking to crush any rebellion.
