Payback (2023)
Underwhelming
What female on the planet that is an accountant would have zero knowledge of their personal finances? I have a mom and an ex-wife that have no background in accounting but they are extremely knowledgeable about their personal finances. My 13 year old daughter knows more about finance than this lady however this lady is going to untangle a well crafted financial crime? That isn't the only thing that is unbelievable. I love good crime dramas but good crime dramas have have actors that make me think I'm watching cops and criminals. This show reminds me every minute that I'm watching actors, bad actors. To top off the sub par acting, the scenes don't flow well and the characters don't respond situations like human beings. It all combines to produce a poorly acted, choppy, robotic, crime drama.
Wrath of Man (2021)
Sub par
Terrible acting, miserable directing, and amateurish writing. "CHIPs" from the 70s was produced better than this cow turd and the "Brady Bunch" had better character performances. Pathetic in every fashion.
Night Sky (2022)
Season 2?
Simmons and Spacek are exceptional but if this series does not get picked up for season two it is all for naught. I felt unfulfilled after concluding season 1 because of all the unanswered questions. Season 2 could potentially turn this from average to good.
From (2022)
Over-rated
The current rating of 7.7 is ridiculous. Although not complete garbage, "From" does not compare to other Epix masterpieces like "Get Shorty" and "Godfather of Harlem", yet the IMDB rating is similar. I find it hard to believe that people can be so clueless,, maybe Amazon was involved in the production and juiced the ratings.
Snowfall (2017)
Average at best
Watched 5 episodes and called it quits. It does not compare to top notch shows like The Wire, Narcos, Peaky Blinders, Top Boy, Gangs of London, etc. It's like watching a crime drama on NBC with profanity. Waste of time.
Gangland Undercover (2015)
Over rated
I find 99 out of 100 shows that are ranked 8 or higher on IMDB to be high quality and worth watching. This show is one of the exceptions. It is low budget, poorly produced, and has sub par acting across the board. AVOID!!!
Unbelievable (2019)
Over rated
This is a decent show that is well worth watching but it is not worthy of an 8.7 rating. The acting is above average but the plot is slow to develop and will put you to sleep if you are the slightest bit tired.
