Wall Street JournalJohn AndersonNov 28, 2024
Season 1 Review: What first-rate actors always say about the movies they do is that good writing is paramount; without it, nothing works. Or, as in “The Madness,” very little.

Season 1 Review: Its commentary is fatally muddled. There are so many logical holes, so much unclear, that “The Madness” can frustrate. Conspiracy thrillers are like boats: Too many holes, and they sink. Read full review
