    With a star-making turn for Xuande (charismatic, unknowable, barely off the screen), it’s an audacious, off-kilter, bleakly comic masterpiece.

    The only downside to all this is that, on occasion, it feels like it has blown all of its emotional budget on style rather than substance. .... For the most part, though, The Sympathizer is exciting, meaty and a reminder that drama that demands your full and complete attention can be well worth the effort.

    It is a demanding watch, but its storytelling and visual audacity are a searing endorsement of just how thrilling television can be when risks are taken and the audience is trusted to keep up.
