Full Circle

Interesting plot but very confusing to deal with in the first two episodes. Also, so difficult to understand the dialogue as they talk so fast and accents unclear. Guesswork on our part as to what is said and what is happening. But the intrigue is building in episode three and so the suspense begins. The acting is up to standard for this level of production so no complaints in that department. Some scenes are very dark and very difficult to determine what is happening so a bit more guesswork required on our part , which also adds to the suspense. Will Definetly continue to watch the remaining episodes to see how it all fits together.

I don't quite get the negative reviews. The show is interesting in my opinion and I plan to watch it through. A few past favorites have been Ted Lasso, Succession, Billions, Mare of EastTown, The Old Man, Queens Gambet, Last of Us, Top Boy. So if you are a fan of these too, then I think you will enjoy Full Circle. While it may not be brilliant it's thought provoking. Plus, has an excellent cast, soundtrack, and unusual storyline. It may not become an Emmy nominated show but after the first two episodes I am left thinking or reflecting back on certain scenes and eager for the next episode. For anyone looking for something outside of the typical Hollywood studio formula I say give it a chance.

The plot is quite interesting and keeps you wondering what will happen next. Actors are pretty good, but seeing Claire Danes made me feel like she was still playing Carrie from Homeland. She basically only has one aggressive expression. The dialogues were at times a bit tiring. Especially the annoying scenes involving Zazie Beetz (Mel Harmony). The story itself was not that credible, but still entertaining. Not sure about the creative camera-angles. It works sometimes, but feels somewhat unnecessary. I had a hard time keeping up with all the names and persons introduced, so this is not something you can watch half asleep. Would I recommend this to a friend? As a summertime view, yes. Will it stick with me? Definitely not.

I think a lot of the negative reviews come from people that don't understand the plot

It's more than a typical random plot. I love the twists and the turns in it.

It's very classic Steven Soderbergh style. Dark with so much going on

So I believe this may be hard for some to keep up.

The filming and the cinematography is really well done.

You couldn't ask for a stronger cast. From big names like Dennis Quaid to the unknown actors. Everyone is superb. The most amazing characters are the women (very Steven S) Zazie Beetz As Harmony, Claire Danes and. CCH Pounder, Adia and Suzanne Savoy. These women are the the bread and butter of the series. Well done for writing such strong female characters.

It's a fun ride.

Even Claire Danes couldn't save it. It seems like everything is ruined by poor directing. Chaos. Inconsistent atmosphere that makes you sometimes lose track of whether it's supposed to be thriller or comedy. Especially in the scenes with Timothy Olyphant. Lots of unreliable situations that don't allow you to immerse yourself. When it comes to the characters from Guyana, it feels like it's fantasy; when the scenes involve the wealthy family, it feels like it's drama. Lastly, I know New York well, and this is the first production set there that I don't believe it is. And it's not an advantage that they experimented with, for example, "a different NYC," no, it's another unreliable element. Because of all this, the whole series feels like you're grading a school assignment: "they did this wrong, that's good," instead of simply following the story.
