Focusing more on technical details, accuracy and quiet moments of tension between characters, The Days feels just as educational as entertaining and I appreciate the refusal to over-dramatize this pivotal moment in history. The miniseries makes effective use of its budget and even the English audio dubbing isn't terrible. Worth a watch.
