There wasn't much to fall for, considering that the complimentary post also made it sound terrible.

I mean the action scenes are kind of meh and largely incoherent, but the rest of the movie is miles ahead of the average blockbuster.

The biggest issue is IMO the $200 million isn't on screen with practical effects the way it would be in a MI or Bond movie. Also, these fly by B-roll drone shots from this movie and ambulance are terrible.

The Bear was indeed dope.

I missed Condor before. Just did it after a friend said I'd like it if I liked the Old Man. I agree. It's not the original but it's not bad!

yup, same feelings. each ep got worse. 2nd half of the first ep was the best part. and then at the end

Spoiler:

Black Bird is 6 eps total. 5 are out. I guess if I start, will be ready in time for the Thursday finale.

For All Mankind s3 also on the list.

Black Bird isn’t True Detective S1 good, but it’s damn good.

Two eps into this and it’s much more comparable to Mindhunter. Not anywhere in the same league as True Detective S1.

Not trying to knock the show…this is exactly the content I want to watch.

I'm liking Black Bird too, very solid. That last episode, however, had some of the most disturbing dialog I've ever seen

true detective s1 was only exceptional in that one amazing scene

there was some fine acting in it, but besides that one scene, it's not even a top 50 show, maybe not even top 100

that one scene was ****ing amazing though

It was a joke but in order of things I remember from the show.
Nude
McConaughey drinking lonestar rambling
Raid
Guy driving lawnmower

Barely remember the plot. Some kids get killed by some weird powerful people?
It was a good watch and probably holds up for first timers watching nowadays, but definitely overrated by many here.
