3 episodes in and I'm really enjoying it. The first two episodes I watched back to back because it got me hooked, though the 3rd is a little slower. This is now the scene setting stage though, so I'd expect it.
It's up there with other US based espionage thrillers, such as Jack Ryan, The Night Agent, etc.. in fact it's probably better than those as it's a little more believable. It's not door to door action, but the scenes are visceral and intense. It has a similar presentation to Taylor Sheridan's other recent work and you can see some elements from Sicario too.
I struggle to understand all of the negative reviews. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions on what they enjoy, but given the number of strongly negative ones I suspect there's something else at work here, so take them with a pinch of salt. If in doubt I'd recommend watching the first episode and making your own mind up (unless you're offended by the idea of a strong woman).
8.5/10 but rounding up to 9 to counter the negativity.
