The Electric State, directed by the Russo Brothers, stands as one of Netflix's priciest productions yet faces harsh criticism, with many reviewers dubbing it off-putting and unoriginal. In stark contrast, the accompanying art book by Simon Stålenhag is celebrated for its haunting illustrations and depth, creating a rich atmosphere that resonates deeply with readers. Stålenhag's previous work, Tales From the Loop, showcases his unique ability to evoke a sense of nostalgia and unsettling beauty, suggesting that his art remains far superior to its cinematic adaptation.
Critics have labeled The Electric State movie as 'self-cannibalizing slop' and 'a sub-Marvel slog,' contrasting sharply with the art book's haunting and beautiful reputation.
Simon Stålenhag's art book is acclaimed for its striking visuals, described as 'hauntingly illustrated' and 'awe-inspiring,' effectively capturing a post-apocalyptic mood.
