One particular reviewer noted that it was darkly lit. It is high contrast, similar to the old B&W pictures. Taking advantage of natural light is a gift. For someone to write a series off as a 2 star because it doesn't like the lighting leaves me one word to call someone.
Getting into the meat of the series, it isn't particularly new or unexpected. It is fairly predictable. The acting is good for the most part... until people start trying to emulate a southern accent.
All in all, it is a fair show. I give it 50%. It is good enough to put on when there isn't anything else on. I don't love it. The lead does his best to emulate Cullen Buchanan in Hell on Wheels except Common isn't around. There are plenty of good other shows to watch.
