Presumed Innocent

RATING - 9.0🍿

This show follows a prosecuting attorney through an affair in which the woman is murdered and all signs point to him. The series goes through the case and how he defends himself against the evidence and there is a twist to every episode.

I give this watch 9.0 bags of 🍿 as it's the best show I've seen all summer. Great acting and the overall plot and story is a banger. You'll be guessing the whole time and every episode ends with a twist that will leave you saying one more episode. Yes I advise anyone to watch this one!

I'm T 🎬 and I hope you're day is full of peace and love and I love you all!

Jake Gyllenhaal's performance is so powerful, I feel as if it is happening to me. He is just unraveling in this world and absolutely getting shredded apart. I absolutely do not agree with half of his actions but I still am wanting him to fight for his life.

And let's not forget his counter part Peter Saarsgard's Monroe. He is just the perfect villain just oozing vileness. Everything he says just shoves pain and vitriole right in Jakes face without letting up, making it hard to even breathe.

Everyone seems genuine and the dialogue is unrelenting. Just an amazing show. My heart is still pumping.

Presumed Innocent was as good as I expected it to be. I knew it would be good just based off the casting of Jake Gyllenhaal and add Peter Sarsgaard, Ruth Negga and a bunch of other good actors and you have the makings of a good show. Gyllenhaal delivers evert time he's in a movie or show and this is no different. On top of that it was created by David E. Kelley who had a pretty good reputation when it comes to crime dramas. This is an edge of your seat whodunit series that will keep you guessing who the killer is throughout the series. I've never seen the original film or read the book but I've read this version is distinctive fr'om those. While it may not be the best whodunit courtroom drama I've seen, it's definitely worth watching.

You should watch this show on Apple TV+ with Jake Gyllenhaal I never saw the 1990 movie with Harrison Ford, nor read the book, so it was all new to me. I was definitely entertained, wondering where it was all going to go week-by-week and I was (mostly) satisfied by the end. Jake has come a long way since "Donnie Darko" (an excellent movie, btw) and he does a great job here alternating between slimy and sincere, leaving us questioning his innocence. The supporting cast is terrific, especially Ruth Negga, great in everything she does ("Loving", "Passing", "Preacher") and an always excellent Peter Sarsgaard as the villain-y character.

This is an enjoyable season about a murder and the process gone through from start to finish to achieve "justice."

Jake Gyllenhaal plays prosecutor turned accused Rusty Sanich and does a stellar job of it. The series.focusses mainly on him and his family and other district attorneys.working out of the same office.

The story is compelling, though at times can be slow. I think an episode could have been cut out of the season as a lot of non-pertinent dialogue was used as a filler.

Overall though, I couldnt help but keep watching and saw the whole season in one sitting.

Has some interesting twists and turns - definitely recommend to any fans of crime and courtroom dramas.
