#REVIEW: “FALLOUT”
By Nicholas Porteous
The world as we know it has been nuked into oblivion and over 100 years later, various tribes have emerged from the ashes. There's the vault people--wholesome, organized, but.. let's say sheltered. There's the intimidating, soulless military, living above ground. And don't forget the clusterfuck of raiders, mutant cowboys and god knows what else, fighting for scraps in the wasteland.
Welcome to the world of Fallout--Prime Video's entry into the prestige, ...
