The Act

A great interpretation of an absurd story from America. I almost think that a similar story couldn’t happen in any other place. Exploiting the system, cheating the neighbors, a psychological bomb where you just stare at the way some people are living. Add some great acting performances, excellent filmmaking craftand some scenes bordering on genius, which in eight episodes keep the quality high and truly entertain the viewer. Sometimes it is stretched a bit too much, but this show certainly occupies the top spot among psychological dramas. I am curious what the next season will bring, as The Act ought to present similar absurd cases of American justice in every season. The premise is good, let’s see where it moves from there.
