“The Regime is designed as a satire of political spectacle and the slippery slope of authoritarianism (and also fails). Kate Winslet stars as Elena Vernham, the chancellor of an unnamed central European country who comes to rely too heavily on the advice of her bodyguard, Corporal Herbert Zubak (Matthias Schoenaerts). Gradually Zubak’s role grows into adviser, nudging Vernham toward folk remedies, insular nationalist policies, and hawkish anti-protest stances to quash the growing rebellion among her ignored, starving citizens. With an inevitability that should feel like a creeping doom but instead feels like mere predictability, things go badly for Vernham and her unspecified country.” — Scott Tobias, “The Regime Series-Premiere Recap: To Err Is Humid”
