After reading several reviews about how great the Penguin series is, I decided to give it a watch. I'm not going to say it was a complete waste of time, as TV that I deem "a complete waste of time," I don't waste my time on. So, it's entertaining enough to watch, but far from being "great," or even "good," in my book.
There is definitely some good acting. Colin Farrell does a great job as the Penguin, as does the actress who plays Sofia (Cristin Milioti). But the show itself is an average at best crime drama.
If you're a person who can't stand it when you can tell what is going to happen (as I am), then you're prob not going to care much for it. The plot is very predictable, from start to finish. Again, the acting and theatrics is good enough to carry the show, but the plot itself is very average.
My rating is 5 out of 10. Like I said, average.
If you have Max and are looking for something to watch that I would consider "great," watch the Wire. You're welcome.
