The Worst Film Ever
... View MoreExcellent but underrated film
... View MoreThe movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
... View MoreThe film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
... View MoreAfter Keifer Sutherland this whispering dialogue is terrible.
... View MoreThis could be an exciting contribution to British TV in 2018/19. Unfortunately the first two episodes are only available to those with TEXT as the dialogue is almost totally lost due to poor diction. This is very common now as voice projection seems to be the last thing that directors think about. The text does not allow the listener to get the feel of the words and also distracts one from the pictorial action. Bring back BBC rules
... View MoreExtraordinary crime drama. Great cast. Great story. Expertly rendered in a perfect setting. Front story and back story perfectly woven through both season one and two culminating in a season 2 finale that blurs the distinction between winning and losing. Sans all the sex and gratuitous gunplay found in American cop shows, Cardinal achieves a standard rarely seen on the small screen. Highly recommended.
... View MoreI found "Cardinal" streaming on Hulu and started watching it because I've been a fan of Billy Campbell's ever since he did "The Rocketeer". And what you get here in addition to "Billy" is a crackling good, crime-detective serial killer drama that was WAY better than I expected. It is graphic, and gruesome but don't let that deter you from watching the first season of 6 episodes. I liked the "subplots" involving the family life of both Detectives on the case in addition to the crime story. Billy Campbell is not really a "tough guy" here. He's more of a "beaten down by the world, loads of troubles, tortured soul" kind of guy but he's relentless & brilliant as an investigator. The pairing of these two characters reminded me of the superb Danish crime series "The Bridge". If you enjoy Nordic Noir, crime shows--you will like this series.
