Leopard Skin

Wow!!!! This is totally different than Jett (which Cinemax couldn't sell right but is on HBO Max) with some of the same actors like a parallel universe Jett. Carla Gugino is of course senselesly beautiful (when isn't she?) tOTally fierce in this story that has comedy, music, sex, violence and like something more esoteric? Amelia Eve (with Carla in Bly Manor) and Ana De La Reguera are the funny parts and the criminal gang is the scary part. And they do that well. I won't spoil how slick Negan is in this but also be prepared for the most intriguing relationship between two women on television. Fire! All the women are standouts. Gaite Jensen (Tatiana from Peaky Blinders) is heartbreaking!!! Peacock is really showing stepping up their game making something this fresh.

This is bonkers in the raddest way. Cannot wait to see what season 2 is about. But beware: not an action story like the trailer promises, very light gunplay and zero gore. This is more art house mystery with wicked humor and strong women not afraid to be vulnerable.

Unexpected all around, go in with an open mind if you like any of the cast and you will be entertained.

As the story moves backwards and forwards you get a whole different idea of what you first thought about each character and some of it is laugh out loud funny with razor sharp dialogue and some of it is uncomfortable in a way that you eventually accept but are like wtf and then it's so fast it's over and you catch your breath. Fantasy Island never looked this appealing.

From the makers of Jett brings you Leopard Skin a Murder Mystery Jewel Heist Romance Thriller starring Carla Gugino, Gaite Jansen, Amelia Eve and Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

First of all the filming location is quite stunning and beautiful to look at. I like the cast of characters with each passing episode we learn more about who these people are. Leopard Skin is quite stylized with quirky dialogue. The ending of the show still have a few unanswered questions about the heist. Do I want a season 2 of Leopard Skin? NO! Jett has too big of a cliffhanger to be just left alone so here's hoping Jett will get a season 2.

The story is about a gang who performs a jewelry heist, and while trying to get away, they hide in a beach house,where they are holding captive/hostages the 2 women living there.

The way the events take place in this series, is really unexpectable, but not because of the plot twists. The unexpectable part refers to the characters' interactions.

I didn't know what to expect from this show but for me it was surprisingly pleasant.

In order to recommend it though, the questions here are: Is it enjoyable to watch? Yes!

Is it amazingly good? Well, no!

So, is it worthy to watch?

In my opinion, it depends on what you are looking for.

If you want a short, fun, interesting and kinda weird tv show to watch then you will probably like it.

If you are looking for a realistic and profound show, then just skip it. It does not target this kind of audience.

Generally 6/10.

Not a crime drama in any conventional sense this is a continuation of JETT and that show's style palette of brash colors influenced by film noir and classic women's pictures of the 1940's. Gutierrez knows his way around complicated femme fatales and plays with time, using the jewelry heist gone wrong (itself a noir staple) to get down to the real business he's after: the days and months leading up to the present and the psychological and philosophical quests of the various female characters, especially Batty (Gaite Jansen from Peaky Blinders, astounding) and the director's perpetual muse Gugino (perhaps better than ever).

This is an extremely confident 4 hour movie split into bite sized chunks for the binge generation.

Highly recommended.
