If you used to be a “Burn Notice” devotee, and have re-watched every “Breaking Bad” and “Better Call Saul” episode to the point that the episodes have lost their sheen, you may find something enjoy here. That something may be Donovan’s performance. The actor lends a remarkable sensitivity to what could be an entirely odious character.
-
At its best, the show mimics the stylized visuals, outlandish violence, and comic cynicism of early episodes of Breaking Bad--though, so far, it lacks the clarity and the focus to make its story half as thoughtful.
-
The just-sufficient fascination of the entire operation is owed almost exclusively to the cast, with special nods to Donovan, Strickland, and the indomitable Rossellini. The rest of Shut Eye is engaging only at the most base level, and fails to conjure the menace, magic, or all-around strangeness of a life made passing messages along from beyond this plain of existence, whether genuine or not.
