I went into this with no expectations but what I found was a well crafted, complex and compelling thriller. The writing is intelligent. The story is intricate and unexpectedly human. The performances are multifaceted. The locations are beautiful. I really enjoyed this series. I give this series a 9 (superb) out of 10.
8/10.
Surreal as Benedict Cumberbatch’s acting is, in “Eric”, the gritty atmosphere of New York City in the 1980s is masterfully captured. Although lengthy, this show is a real gem because it interrogates deep themes.
Walton Goggins has played some interesting characters in the past, but The Ghoul is iconic.
Someone is thinking this is The Block (Australia). lol
This doesnt belong here. This series only has the 7 episodes
A fitting send off for Jack McCoy. “It’s been a hell of a ride.”
It's really boring, plot moves at a glacial pace with a lot of filler in every single episode. I watched 5 episodes, and don't really care who did it at this point.
Great season finale. Couldn’t have predicted the outcome
The script of course is good - as is most everything else except for Owen and the cheesy saxophone score. It’s unfortunate that so many modern film noirs are caricatures of the old films.
As for Clivey-boy, I’ve suspected that he’s not a very good actor and this show has confirmed it. He delivers Spade’s one liners in a clumsy unnatural fashion. Fortunately he’s not as horrible as Liam.
It's just another revenge story
Movie was the definition of mid
Wasn't bad, wasn't great.. Just watchable
And it was way to long for what it was trying to deliver
I honestly was excited to watch this movie and had my hopes up so maybe that's why it wasn't that great to me with such expectations
Anyways not regretting the time
Probably one of the best film ideas in recent memory. It's too bad that Helander didn't follow through on the idea presented in his 2003 short film precursor to this. While the film fails at living up to it's original billing, it is extremely entertaining and will keep your attention throughout. My wife, who rarely likes films like this, said and I qoute "It was good." Well worth a watch.
Never have I been so excited for the next episode.. Axe is back baby!
This is a quirky series and I was fascinated with it from beginning to end. There has to be a second season, as we were left hanging as it were…
Enjoyed the show, very different from what we’re used to watch. It’s interesting how they always provide arguments for both sides (reasons to believe and reasons to be cynical).
Lovely series.....fresh story line... Watch
Jesus, I love Brad Pitt :D
Clearly a step back rom the first episode but mainly due to the over the top neurotic behaviour of Helen and the clichèd subplot of former lovers. Expectedly silly with decent action and fine CGI, though.
Hopefully they get a bit more serious in the upcoming episodes, though.
But I am sceptical that this is going to happen..
- "Hey, you can call my vagina any state, but you do not fucking call it Florida, you hear me?"
- "Fair enough."
I'm so glad that I haven't had to hear "We get our babies back." in the last few episodes :raised_hands_tone4:
Lol only 6 minutes in and she's already saying "we get our babies back." OMG! Idk which is worse this line used multiple times per episode or "lifeboat" from Manifest.
Much better than the first episode if it keeps improving might end up being good
Like everybody else, I was a little sceptical going into this. However, the pilot has exceeded all of my expectations and dare I say I’m already obsessed? Not only have the actors done an OUTSTANDING job at bringing the characters to life (for a second time), but it has already been renewed for a second season! I mean, the first episode hasn’t even “officially” aired yet, which is an absolute credit to every single person that has worked to bring this project to life. I am, without a doubt, overjoyed.
I really hate that this is the last season....

When a show consistently makes you root for it's characters, smile for the prospect of what is to come and have a sense of hope and "glee" in your eyes and heart you know you're watching something great.
Black hole sun! Black hole sun!
This episode deserves a 10 just for that ending montage.
I watched this remake with zero exepectations and it suprised me, as i watched the original 2 times in full i always missed the diversity there, but this cast is amazing and breaks the number one criticism of the original one. They kept some of the dinamics from the first episode of the original show and it feels like another series but fresh, i really want to see where they are going with this, the first 8 episodes were good and got me interest on the other characters, but the fist episode was execptional, the sense of community it had it made me cry.
Already know I'm gonna love this. Weird strange shows like this always gets a thumbs up from me.
this is an infuriating and stomach-churning documentary but it’s well-done and it’s nice the siblings get a chance to tell their story and discuss how this horrifying ordeal has impacted them
Coincidence that Alexander Skarsgård — aka. Eric Northman — stars in this movie? I think not!
