CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
bazxyz 3 gripping stories that make a change from the usual mind numbing drivel on tv. Shame its been stopped after 3 series due mainly to greed as usual as its not a massive hit. Sundance decided we need more repeats of MASH and Law and Order instead of something new like this... like all the other channels showing these programs isn't enough! Luckily each series is its own story so worth watching
geordiesdad This show is excellent.................for the first 3 episodes. After that.......well.......let's just say if you think Road Runner is based on REAL events....then you'll love this show....if, on the other hand your mind has even a SCANT grasp of reality....you'll abandon it around episode 6 and go back to the comparative reality of the Road Runner adventures....or Tintin. The writing is abysmal and incredibly predictable...the acting is OK although the lines they have to read must have made them cringe at times. Lots of action a la Schwarzenegger but not a hint of drama not based around fantastic possibilities. i think this would have made a wonderful cartoon or a comic book but as a series......MEH.
gaztrue Now where is the third season because I already want it to start now!!! This season was sad bc of subject matter but Hap and Leonard make it okay and put a smile on my face. I dont know who thought to have these two actors together but really a stroke of genius or/and luck. Thank you!!! now go make a third season.
ketztx There is nothing not to love about this series, save for the fact that it's so short and there's such a long wait between seasons. Having always been a fan of Joe R Lansdale's work, I was delighted to see that the producers and writers of the current series have kept true to the characters and feel of the novels, while taking the plots in creative new directions.The creative twists--such as Sheriff Valentine's revelation about his past, (season two) and the flashbacks of Hap and Leonard as small boys bonding over the deaths of their fathers--are nothing short of perfect; the story gallops along with nary a stumble, and the actors have nailed the characters with surgical precision. So intelligently written and beautifully paced, each episode deserves multiple viewings to appreciate. Put this one on your must-watch list--you'll be happy that you did.
