“PROJECT INFINITY: A MESSY FINALE TO A LACKLUSTRE FIRST SEASON”

As the final chapter of Dalek Empire’s first season, Project Infinity should have been the grand culmination of all the build-up so far. Unfortunately, it quickly loses its grip by trying to juggle too many moving pieces at once. With an overly intricate plot and an overabundance of character interactions that fail to resonate, the story never quite finds its footing. The first half struggles with slow, unfocused dialogue exchanges before shifting into an action-heavy final third, which turns into a chaotic mess of sound effects, Dalek voices, and strategic chatter.

CHARACTERS WHO FAIL TO ENGAGE

Suz and Alby remain disappointingly dull, never managing to evolve beyond their one-note portrayals. The long-hyped narrator lady finally steps into the story, only to make zero impact. Kalendorf, at least, retains some presence, though even he struggles to carry the weight of an increasingly disengaging narrative.

A SETUP FOR MORE, BUT NOT MUCH EXCITEMENT

The final moments tease an intriguing second series, but after such an underwhelming first season, it’s difficult to muster much enthusiasm. While Dalek Empire had potential, it ultimately stretched itself too thin, with Project Infinity failing to deliver the payoff needed to redeem the missteps of previous episodes.

📝VERDICT: 4/10

A muddled and underwhelming finale that tries to be ambitious but ends up unfocused. The action-packed climax is more noise than substance, and the weak character work makes it hard to care about what happens next. An unsatisfying end to a series that never quite lived up to its potential.
