Yup, that the level of writing you get in this series
lots of eye-rolling one liners as well.
Cuise's version was smart as it juxtapose a smaller man against larger adversaries, as a show of his martial prowess.
This series just bullies. True to the books , which are pretty terrible in themselves.

Imagine watching the Great Gatsby but filmed on a theatherical budget.
You know how the story starts and ends, the beats are all to familiar , the grift repeated in it's myriad of intepretations over the decades on TV and film.
But all of that could still be a compelling watch, if only the bits in between are interesting. This film does not satisfy in this critical requirement.
3 stars for the set dressing and location shoots.
