From a purely visual standpoint, "Ripley" is one of the best original shows Netflix has to offer. Story-wise, it feels slightly lopsided — as if there's not quite enough here to sustain eight episodes. And yet, should Zaillian and Netflix continue onward and adapt Highsmith's other Ripley novels into new seasons, I'd gladly return to this world. I want to see what Tom Ripley gets up to next.

And though Scott isn’t exactly Ripley, his approach to scenes is so weird and idiosyncratic that he often makes the performance work on its own terms. Still, there’s no getting past the flatness of this series, the dead air between exchanges of dialogue and the overall feeling of grimness. “Ripley” is neither Highsmith nor a plausible substitute. If anything, it’s a missed opportunity.
