Cortina de Fumaça

I think the storyline is original, and I'm totally drawn in by what motivates serial arsonists to set fires. A lot of the time, they feel powerless in their own lives, and lighting something up gives them a strange sense of control or satisfaction. It's dark, but fascinating.

Taron Egerton continues to impress and this was the first time I've seen Jurnee Smollett (at least that I can remember). She delivers an edgy performance and they have good chemistry together.

Overall, I'm hooked and can't wait for the next episode. If I had one complaint, it's just that I wish I could binge the whole season now. But honestly, it's good enough that I don't mind waiting.

P. S.: Not sure why there are so many early, poor reviews ... doesn't add up.

Egerton is too good in this. Scary good. Nightmare material for days. Makes you wonder how he can be so good at playing this really dark characters. This is a story that goes to very dark places in the mind of two incendiaries, one a psychopath, the other a sociopath, but equally dangerous. Must watch, if you are brave.

I was excited to see Jurnee Smollett and Taran Egerton star together in this show, and the plot sounded very interesting too. The first episode was really difficult to watch with how slow and uneventful it was. I decided to continue giving it one more shot, and the second half of episode 2 is when things finally pick up and get interesting. From there, it became a great watch and was able binge the next episodes because the pacing improved and the story got more engaging. So, I recommend sticking around for a bit to give it a proper try.

I've watched the first two episodes of Smoke on Apple TV+ and so far, I'm enjoying it. The atmosphere is dark, tense, and moody, with the Pacific Northwest setting really adding to the overall tone. The story is slowly building tension, and the performances by Taron Egerton and Jurnee Smollett are strong and believable. The pacing is slow but feels deliberate, like it's setting up for bigger twists to come. The characters seem layered and complex, and the mystery around the fires is keeping me hooked. I'm definitely curious to see where the story goes next. Right now, I'd rate it a 7/10.😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

The story develops very slowly, but becomes more exciting with each episode. The main character, Taron Egerton/Dave Gudson, plays a terrific role, but Ntare Mwine/Freddy Fasano also gives a chillingly excellent performance.

You need to be patient with this series, but your patience will be rewarded!"
