Had I not grown up in the luxury restaurant biz, I doubt it would've held my attention. The acting is OK, however David Schwimmer lacks the dramatic acting skills to achieve believability as a master sommelier. Fortunately his ex-con business partner is at the other end of the acting skills spectrum, and does a much better job portraying the character, which helps overall. Not sure if that'll carry my attention much past the 3rd episode, we'll see.

[3 Episodes Update]

Nah -- it's gone from a maybe to a no-thanks. Barely made it through episode 3, it actually started to be annoying. For the most part, the acting is strained. Lots of caricatures and stereotypes. Schwimmer struggles without a Friends laugh-track.

I wanted to like this, but the acting and writing is so terrible. I'm already hate watching it by episode 3.

It's the Moors!....Moops! Moops!!!

Sadly a show with no proper ending. It just leaves you hanging :(

It had potential though.

I like the movie a lot. Its a very intense thriller, providing a deep atmosphere. People which are searching for action and huge bam bam will be disappointed.

Those people which are searching for intense screenplay, characters and mixed up relationships will find a Tom Hardy trapped in its loyality to his own cousin and his own responsibility and way. Mixed up in those feeling you can see how he is growing in that situtation and what circumstances his once made decision will cause.

Its based on a short story by Denis Lehane... I am a huge fan of him, and I didnt know that before...
