Nov 29, 2017Technically it's all shot well, they've created an atmosphere of sparseness, almost emptiness in look and feel, but there is too much simulated sex and not enough plot-line. It's well acted, with no weak performances at all, but the story is just soooo pedestrian. No slow burn, no rabbit to be pulled out of a hat anytime soon.

The two halves have wildly different strengths. “Bria” is cinematically stunning, with a few sequences that are going to be hard to forget anytime soon. “Erica & Anna” is a much more straightforward story, with a chilly aesthetic that makes “House of Cards” look upbeat. But the relative opacity of “Bria’s” story beats — and the oddly pat metaphors of “Erica & Anna”--left me with the wish that these two well-matched directors might, you know, collaborate.

What’s gratifying about this spotty and sometimes surreal Season 2 is that it’s clear the show’s creators want to push the boundaries of what they can do.

Bolstered by more strong turns, especially from Friel, this remains a moving, bold experience worth sharing.
