Ozark

Ozark was such an amazing show during his 3 first seasons, a masterpiece of drama combining poignant intrigue, mastered production, meticulous writing touched by a dose of skillfully distilled black humor. It's was one of my favorites shows and one of the few that I rated 10 but now i just give it a 9 because the season finale has completely ruined my love for this show because this season 4 was so bad oh my god...

Season 4 is lack of action, tension or typical Ozark's plot twist/violence. The pace is extremely slow and storyline does not conclude properly. Everything goes so fast around the last 30 minutes, and so many questions to answer. It's predictable, and weak compared to the quality of the 3 first seasons, did they switch of writers or what ?

There was characters coming in and out and one minute they all hate each other and then don't. It was just inconsistent and felt like they weren't sure how to finish everything. A lot of plots ultimately lead to nothing more than a pointless storyline.

The ending is a joke, it doesn't feel like an ending. Just a regression of most of the characters and the final scene is nonsense in every conceivable way. Ozark ending fails while Sopranos ending doesn't. The writers did not spend any effort on the final and find how to resolve the built-up tension through four seasons! It felt like a last-minute homework of a terrible student. What a waste, this season finale just ruins the show !

I get how good the show is, intense and dark showing the nature of what will do to survive. I was rooting for the family in season one but after a while, seeing how disconnected and unemotional everyone was, I had no one to root for.

I guess I like to see something of myself in the main characters that I can relate to, so I lost interest. I know it's great acting and yes feels very real, I felt like I was trainwrecks waiting to happen. I think a lot of people are tuning in to see someone's whose life is worse so they can feel better, too deep?

Anyways, hats off to Jason Bateman for making a gripping show, you keep seeing the darker side of humanity and wondering "is this really how bad it is?"

The best way to describe Ozark is that it's just a flat out awesome show and a must watch! I'm so glad that I did finally start watching it because it's become one of my favorite shows of all-time. Everything about this show is excellent...the acting, writing, directing, production, cinematography, etc. Are all as good as it gets. The acting is so good that you really come to care for these characters and what happens to them even though they're not exactly the best human beings possible. I can not overstate just how good this show really is. It's one of the rare shows where every season is just as good as the others. The only negative would have to be the ending. While not the worst ending ever it's also not very good. It doesn't mean the show wasn't worth watching because you'll have fun for the majority of it but a little disappointed in the ending.

I never would have watched this if not for the quarantine. It wasn't promoted well. I LOVED IT! Great script, tons of action and characters that you love to hate and hate to love.

The first season was GRIPPING and by the first couple episodes so much had already been established in terms of development, suspense, and thrill. I loved Micheal and was rooting for his cause so that by the time season one ended I was ready for the same amount of quality, but to my surprise it slowed down considerably in season two, the whole season dragged on and although it was entertaining to watch it felt like there was a lull in the pacing. Whereas, in season one, by episode five we already had many over-acrhing plot lines, in season two there seemed to be too much a straight path for what the actions where going to be making it predictable.

Season two definitely had its surprising moments, but compared to season one is palled in comparison. Finally season three everything went downhill and there was no more suspense for me it felt like the show just dragged on and the characters lost their lustre and relatability. They had made terrible choice after terrible choice that I no longer cared what happened to the byrde's.

Overall it's a great show, with amazing acting from the whole cast. Jason Baetman did a fantastic job with the show, but unfortunately it succumbed to Netflix's plague of dragging on.
