Resumo
Reviewers praise 'Task' for its nuanced storytelling and realistic law enforcement portrayal, exploring family, guilt, and redemption. They also highlight its complex characters, strong performances, and emotional depth, especially from Mark Ruffalo and Tom Pelphrey. However, it faces criticism for slow pacing, clichés, and lack of originality. Some find it overly dramatic and characters unrelatable. Despite mixed opinions, 'Task' is seen as a well-crafted police procedural with strong performances.

I know people say all the time how a show is one of the best shows of the year but Task is absolutely, without a doubt one of the best new shows of the year. Everything about it is terrific...the acting, writing, directing, cinematography, etc, etc. It's HBO at its best. Mark Ruffalo and Tom Pelfrey are both amazing actors who have both been nominated for a ton of awards and this might be some their best work of their careers. I'll be shocked if they both don't get nominated and win a bunch of awards for this. The only negative is that we have to wait a week between episodes, I much prefer to binge watch especially when a show is as special as this one is.
Hoping it continues to be as interesting. Not usually a fan of these types of series. They get formulaic, filling too much time. Knew nothing about it but thought I'd try. Glad I did. Interesting characters but how will they develop?
I liked Mare of Easttown a lot so why not?
I want to be interested enough to be ready for new episodes.

In lighter news today (it's been a rough 24 hours), this brand new series on HBO Max seems very impressive, intriguing, and immersive (the three big Is of good moviemaking, I think). I've always been impressed with Mark Ruffalo (who skills were sorely overlooked by that Hulk nonsense - although he DID kill the roll!), and he's absolutely in top-form in this show. Mark has the ability to become the "everyman" (in other words, YOU) when he works a script, which is put to perfect use here. 23-year-old Emilia Jones (who was an incredible standout in the excellent 2021 movie "CODA") was perfectly cast and shines in this role. Very impressive work absorbing her character. Her career is looking very bright. I'm not familiar with Tom Pelphrey but I may have to look into his catalog of work because he's quite convincing and effective, and he played off his supporting crew really well. Add all the good acting to some good atmospheric cinematography and scoring and this one's looking pretty promising.
It remains to be seen (this Sunday) if episode two is as good as the pilot, but based on what I've seen so far this is looking like a fascinating story. I'm sure I'm not alone in saying I sure could use the short escape today, so thanks, HBO.

A pitch-black crime drama owing not only to its dark subject matter, but also to the hush-hush hours of the night during which so much of the violence takes place. A gang of Halloween-masked thieves raid drug dealers' homes in the wee hours to steal their loot, and an FBI task force is sent out to catch them; when things go horribly wrong during one job--and a little boy who sees the bad guys with their masks off is kidnapped--the agents are suddenly facing more than they bargained for. Actually, the thieves themselves aren't the only baddies--after they're introduced in episode one, the very next installment gives us our first extended look at the biker gang that also wants in on the action. (And if the guys we see at the beginning seem bad, the bikers we meet one episode later make them look like choir boys.) The decision to portray the thieves almost (but not quite) as average Joes--at least at home--is interesting, and gives "Task" a family vibe it otherwise might have lacked. Their leader, for example, has in his care (albeit a tad reluctantly) a young niece and nephew, and their steel-jawed, fed-up older sister. Tom Pelphrey plays the character with a surprising amount of depth; clearly he's a man who--when he's not planning robberies and carrying them out--has it in his heart to be as good as he can be to the youngest ones, though less so, generally, to their sister. As the guy in charge of the task force, the excellent Mark Ruffalo--gray-haired, paunchy, and tired--doesn't appear to be capable of solving a series of dollar store robberies let alone something as big as this. (He also drinks a lot, largely because of some debilitating family problems of his own.) There's a kind of moral ambiguity here, too: what are we to make of the fact--if we're to make anything of it at all--that the home invaders aren't ripping off law abiding citizens, but users and dealers and thugs? Does that make them, at least at first, any less...evil? Moody and atmospheric, tense and suspenseful, "Task" has promise. I've only just started, and intend to go back for more. Check it out.
Just got done watching episode six of this series. This series is so intense and seems to be well written, beautifully acted and everything else. One of the best cop shows I've seen. I thought it was over with but there's one episode left.
Mark Ruffalo of course is excellent and a surprise (for me) Tom Pelphrey just blows my mind. The supporting cops, the niece, children and some bad guys are amazing as well. (Don't want to spoil anything here.)
Thank you for a suspenseful, amazing show! I think my heart is still beating fast after tonight.
