Guest Mirezzi Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Any of you checking this out? I'm one episode in, so no spoilers please. So far, I'm blown away by it. The dialog, performances, edit, photography, sound. The first episode opens with Shakespearean gallows humor and ends with the beginnings of an Oedipal tragedy. Smart stuff. Highly recommend.

Yeah, the cast is fantastic. I don't typically like Chiwetel Ejiofor but so far, he's excellent. My favorite character so far is David Schofield as Sgt. Foley.

It reminds me of some of the Fläskkvartetten music in the Swedish Wallander series (Krister Henriksson episodes). Atonal noisescapes cranking up the tension and such like.

He's fucking awesome. I saw him added to the intro credits of EP 2 and I was like, holy shit, can't wait to see what he's up to...and I was not disappointed.

I can't recall if the music in the intro is the same for the outro, but both are beautiful.

chenGOD Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 Christ watched episodes 3 and 4 tonight. Intense shit! Reveal hidden contents Isn't Stephen Rea a little too perfect though? I mean criminal mastermind or what? LIke how the fuck does he know about the journalist? He's fucking great though, perfectly cast. Also, I'm not entirely sure why Gabriel needs to have a little bastard - hope that plot is actually worthwhile.

chenGOD Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 Sweet - episodes 5 and 6 on the download tip. But then I'm gonna have to wait for next week's ep. ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH just film them all, and then put them all up on the web goddamn it! Also - I'm super impressed with Rafe Spall as Jay Wratten. He gets better each episode. Anyone here watched Exile? It's got Jim Broadbent in it, which is a definite plus in my book, but is it worth checking out?
