Good, but Very Predictable
Yes, indeed, Kevin Hart is good here. He doesn't play it too serious like some comic actors or comedians turned actors who then throw away ALL their humor or sense of irony for a dramatic role...
Snipes is also good, no surprise there, but what's also no surprise is the twist of twists that anyone can see coming from the first episode, but...
No matter... this is a time-filler, slowburn-style thriller, not an action-packed crime series, and pretty hypnotic, for the most part...
Like any binge series... despite it KNOWING it's a binge series and playing all the games therein... TRUE STORY knows how to keep the viewer hooked. (NOTE: This is the second time Billy Zane jump-started one of these kinda things... Amazon's MAD DOGS was first, and his character fills the exact same purpose.)
