CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Motompa Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
rengron I just stumbled on this little gem of a show during a surgery recuperation, on Netflix. Whatta barrel of fun!! Some really GREAT acting and wonderful story lines. With the world of crime and the wealth of human flaws abounding, there must've been enough material to keep it going for years. Did the actors just get tired of it? It looked like they really loved their work... If the network just quit on it, this was a major error in judgment--ala Star Trek and Longmire.... What's with these executive jerks who are all too ready to sacrifice quality for big bucks?? I guess that's why the reality shows are making it--all money, LOW cost and zero substance...Anyway, if votes are being cast and counted, count mine as a "please bring it back, SOOOOON"....
Sjobeck Only 2 episodes in and enjoying but ....this is a slightly unusual critique to write, but .... the sound is awful. It is just awful. Watch and listen to season 1 episode 2 and you can barely hear it, muddy, unclear, audio. Distracting.I will come back to update this review after a few more episodes. Holly Hunter looks as young and energetic (and thin) as ever. She appears to be having fun and enjoying herself while doing this. Or, she is doing this thing called acting. Glad Netflix has this show. Cheers.
michealhise There's been a lot of talk that this show is vulgar, that Holly Hunter's character is repulsive and doesn't deserve saving. Through her constant struggles to find herself and her peace of mind after the tragic death of her sister from the OK bombings, her abuse from childhood, and a job that makes her question the common decency of human beings, Grace is portrayed in a way I think most people can relate to.Sure, there is violence and nudity and harsh language. Life is FULL of that. Not everyone is Christian and not everyone finds nudity disgusting, but hearing people who profess themselves to be Christian and saying there is nothing in Holly Hunter's character worth saving doesn't sound very Christian to me. Aside from all that, the character Grace feels real, raw, tragic and yet not without hope. She has moments (although brief) where a little piece of sage advice from Earl starts to sink in. In many cases in real life, when we hear something we know is right, but aren't ready to hear it, we deny it in our actions or our words. You see this conundrum with Grace. She is a representation of someone barely holding on before hitting rock bottom, and the way our lives can change (albeit slowly) when we start to think instead of just act.This show is not only very well written, but well acted, well thought out, and conscious of the fact that not everyone is perfect. This is definitely not a show for people who like neat and tidy endings at the end of each episode, but great for those who like to ponder what it would be like in the portrayed characters shoes. In closing, if people get offended by what they see on television; turn it off. Read a book, write a book, do the dishes, do something else. Don't continue to watch the show in complete disgust only to have something negative to blog about.
j3inpenn I like this show. It is very well done. What makes it what it is are the scenes between Holly Hunter and Leon Rippy. I like watching them interact with one another because so much real emotion comes out of it. The rest of the cast is great too. It is well written and well directed. I hope that it has a long run on TNT and I hope that the acting, writing and directing stay original. Grace is such an interesting character to watch. She has the viewer rooting for her at some points in the storyline and at other times she has them feeling bad for her. It is hard to decide whether you like her or hate her. It will be interesting to see where it all goes.
