    I enjoyed the story. I know that it is a sugar-coated view of the time, but it is as enjoyable as a 1940's musical - I want the happy ending. More time spent on how the studio systems operated would interest me.

    Beautiful, sumptuous series. Just fantastic storytelling... a wonderful escape to a different time. Romance and drama, wonderful characters. The costumes and sets are gorgeous. This show has it all! #SaveTheLastTycoon

    Wonderful story, great actors, fantastic costumes. No blood! No cheap action. A story for fine souls.
    Noble and wonderful! A story you will not forget for a long time.

    Amazon’s Tycoon is the TV equivalent of a great beach book: a page-turner with larger-than-life characters, set in a glitzy, gossipy world of secrets. I watched the entire season over a few days, mostly because I was having too much fun to stop.

    Thought-provoking and melancholy, like all good F. Scott Fitzgerald stories, The Last Tycoon delivers a good summer watch. ... All this said, The Last Tycoon has taken some critical heat, and not without cause. It has several unsparkling passages and weak spots.

    The flaw in this visual and stylistic gem, however, is that the plot beneath all this polish does not contain much in the way of human significance or honesty for a viewer to grab onto.
