"This series is brilliant. It’s dark , brutal and haunting, but also beautiful and hopeful. The story of childhood abuse and drugs and self destruction with the possibility of redemption, shaking off the generational trauma. It’s beautifully filmed, brilliantly acted and very well written. This was my second time watching and touched me even deeper than the first time. Perfect. ( 06/8/2024)"

"As expected, Benedict Cumberbatch puts on a fantastic performance, telling the story of a man dealing with the trauma and habits brought on by his own parents and their torturous behaviors. A good story about realizing how our parents affect our habits as we grow up."

"This is a somewhat pummeling tale of a bad man behaving badly. It won't lift you up. Still, I was caught up in the watching."

Despondent Hull

"Addiction is hard to watch, but Benedict Cumberbatch does such a great job of portraying and "anything goes" millionaire's issues, sinking right down into the bottom."
