This is what we've come to expect from HBO now. It's basically Canadian quality.

The show tries to be funny but it falls flat. Then it manages to fall even flatter.

The acting is tedious and the story is a distorted mess with nothing to say but it thinks it's intelligent.

I can't imagine how this got greenlit other than at the pitch they said it's anti European and also said something about dictatorships. Which is strange since the existing dictatorships we all live in now are failing so they're alarmed that other voices are taking over to fix the mess that has been caused by every western leader in the past 4 decades.

HBO used to be amazing. Now it's deserving it's reputation for making utter garbage.

I'm not sure why this has a low rating. It's actually very well shot, the acting is very good, and while slow it's correctly paced for the genre.

The story is pretty rudimentary but it's handled well. The director does a great job framing the scenes and the setting is really beautiful.

This isn't an action movie so I guess the low ratings are from people who expected a man in his 70s to be doing Jason Statham level fight scenes?

It's a hitman story and it's a good one. The villain is played well too and the story does crash together at the end in an interesting way.

If you like hitman movies and appreciate slower paced, character driven and building stories you'll likely enjoy this.

The acting is pretty bad because I don't think the directors did much to motivate the actors to convey any kind of character. They just deliver lines and the flow and pacing are very clunky which makes it near impossible to sit through.

There are some obvious amateurish mistakes like improper establishing shots and there is no consistency to the depth or framing so it doesn't pull you into any kind of vision, it's just filming a story they wrote.

I wanted to like this but it's not good. And yes the 3 10/10 reviews are obviously not real.

There is no good reason to recommend this so I can't.
