De Niro is great. Acting is pretty good all around with three exceptions: Angela Basset is never believable as the Kamala Harris’ as POTUS. Matthew Modine is all shticks and grand standing in his portrayal of a Kevin McCarthy speaker. And Lizzy Caplan as the ex president daughter / congresswoman seems lost.
This is one of Netflix special limited series that won’t hold beyond the starting premise.
Conspiracy plot painted by numbers only risen by good production values, but nothing in it makes sense. FE: the sleeping arrangements of some of the characters (that have a workday in Washington DC. and sleep in apartments in NYC).

I get the derivative hyperviolent Ritchie knockoff, postTarantino, up to 11, tongue in cheek they tried to do here. And it is a stupid, gratuitous, a bit insulting, leave your brain at the box-office, kind of an action flick. Didn’t care about any of its badly drawn stereotypical antihero assassins.
Movie tries to ride on Pitt’s charisma, and it’s not as cute as it thinks it is.
Leitch is just trying to outdo Deadpool by doubling on everything, blind (again) at what actually worked there. It’s clear he thinks he gets it (the right mix of ironic comedy and violence), but he doesn’t.Translated from by -
I Spit on Your Grave III: Vengeance Is Mine 2015
Awful beyond words. Unwatchable. Is there a third of a star rating?
