    Cuarón’s scripts, by contrast [to "Fleishman Is in Trouble"], are rootless and simplistic, and Blanchett’s chilly, patrician protagonist merely recalls the actor’s more layered performances in superior projects like “Tár” and “Mrs. America.” Bizarre, affectless second-person narration describes the scenes we’re already watching or provides only the most insipid exposition.

    When the concluding stretch arrives, the final set of revelations includes ones you see coming from a mile away, but by then, you may be wondering why you stuck with it.

    The show simply seems unbelievable, both in terms of its characters’ behavior and, tragically, the real biases it works to highlight. Cuarón crafts some indelible images in the process, but can’t shape “Disclaimer” into a functional vessel for its own story.
