Excellent.
Has anyone else watched this yet?
It far surpassed my expectations, and after the failed GOT finale, this one did not disappoint.

I have not seen it, but have read that it is pretty good. There were complaints about inaccuracies, such as a claim that radiation sickness is contagious. But that could be that the person depicted was wrong.

I watched all of this. It really was well done.
I didn't see anywhere that they claimed that radiation sickness was contagious. But they did depict through the action of the movie that a person who is heavily contaminated with radioactive material could transfer that to another person through physical contact with skin/clothes, etc. and could then be exposed to enough radiation to be harmed.
Whether the fireman still had that level of contamination to transfer after he was really sick is certainly debatable.
