Is Blood Coast worth watching?
Although Blood Coast has not been rated by critics on Rotten Tomatoes yet, it has garnered an impressive 75% audience rating. Interestingly, there seems to be a disparity between the reviews from the audience and the critics.
Decider's review of "Blood Coast" expressed that the story was more confusing than compelling and the film felt too generic to leave any lasting impression. Meanwhile, Ready Steady Cut's review described it as an easy binge-watch that is not particularly interesting but also not boring.
On the other hand, audience reviews have been much more positive, with one person stating, "It's never dull... it's been a while since I've seen a great series and watched all the episodes in one day. It's a compelling story with very talented actors."
