The Undoing

"Much Ado About Nothing" Great cast, compelling storyline, poor final episode.

I really loved first five episodes. Grant, Jupe and Sutherland gave us great performances, Kidman did well. Some characters were useless or barely used, such a shame. Last episode seemed like classic Hollywood story. Ending had to be better. You should watch it. In the end it is a pretty good psychological thriller.

It started out with a very strong screenplay. It had intelligent dialogue. The acting performances were all very good. Unfortunately, Fernando Alves character wasn't developed. The show remain strong until ep5. Ep5 and ep6 direction did not impressed me as well as the first four episodes.

I am not sure what the point was with Sylvia Steineitz or Miguel Alves. I'm not putting down the show, but I felt the climax could have been taken in a different direction. It is certainly better than many of the other TV shows running on streaming platforms.

The first episode of this installment has much of what a person will want in a murder mystery: suspense, intrigue, eroticism, and classic "who done it." Nicole Kidman is an underrated performer, and she does not disappoint is this first episode. Her genuine display of humility, kindness, sincerity, and appropriate assertiveness are all characterized. It's worth a look.

This is a "Oh my God, don't say I have to wait a week until the next episode" kind of show. Great thriller. Great acting by Kidman, Grant and Sutherland. Well worth setting aside an evening just to watch.
