Black Bird: We Are Coming, Father Abraham (2022)
Just Like Episode 1 - please get stronger again
Not much to add. This show has 6 episodes and waists 1/3 on the first act. Ever heard about decent story telling? This is a very straight forward story, nothing too complicated about it to start it off and yet the writers can't seem to give it a bore-free start.
Black Bird: Pilot (2022)
Strong start getting weaker every minute
The first 15 minutes were interesting the rest should have been cut by the half at least.
Taron Egerton and Ray Liotto do a fine job here. I couldn't care less for any of the Police and FBI people except Sepideh Moafi. Her play together with Taron is fun to watch.
All those flashbacks to the beginnings of the cases drag on and on - I just skipped those, the details are irrelevant as far as I understand yet. I only need to know the basics, everything else has to develope between Taron and Pauls's characters. That way it can be shown not told, like during the scenes between Taron and Sepideh.
Paul Walter Hauser's way of verbalization is annoying to the point that I didn't want to listen to him anymore. I hope the interaction between him and Taron will be interesting enough otherwise this will be hell to watch.
