Anyone else watch this? I’m a bit more than half way through (just past the “high-tech lynching” speech), and so far it’s okay but a little disappointing for reasons I just can’t put my finger on. I think it’s because, coming right off of “The People vs. OJ Simpson” I want a lot more depth and backstory to the drama. It feels very rushed, with everything happening too fast.
The actors are all good, and for the most part the casting (especially some of the senators) is excellent. Some of them look very much like the men they are playing.
But the real shining star for me is Greg Kinnear as Joe Biden. Holy cow, he has Joe’s voice down pat. I was looking away from the TV screen during his first scene and I really thought they were using an old clip of the real Joe Biden. It’s amazing.
Any other opinions?
