True Detective Audience Reviews

GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Greenes Please don't spend money on this.
ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
eldanf The best tv serie i have ever seen. No words can describe the depth, the acting.
eriklehnsher I don't understand all the negative reviews for Season 2, unless they were written by wannabe philosophy majors who jerked off to all the pretentious lines from Season 1. Don't get me wrong, I liked Season 1, and there were some pretty good quotes, but some of them were just pointless. And I feel like the focus was not on the story itself, which made it a bit boring to watch, but nevertheless enjoyable.Season 2, however, is a classic example of film noir, and some people obviously failed to understand that. I found the characters way more likable, the plot and the story itself were more interesting, and more fun to watch. The cast did a very good job, and I believe that Farrell, McAdams and Vaughn were just as good as McConaughey and Harrelson.Don't believe all the negative reviews until you see it for yourself. And don't expect Season 2 to be the same as Season 1, as I believe many people did. I found the differences between Season 1 and 2 a good thing, because the directors obviously decided to enrich the show by changing styles and I, for one, am looking forward to Season 3 because I don't know what to expect and I like it that way.
midnightowl-01681 Great actors, great story and great tv! A must see
shanelleeno Season 1 was, as many other already have stated, a masterpiece with all the important components such as smart mouthed/witty characters, the ability to glue you to the screen because of intense, creepy or dramatic scenes, and of course an interesting storyline. I loved season 1, the cast and scenery was spot on. When season 2 was about to air I got excited. The intro is the only thing about season 2 that is not all bad, although I believe it is too long. I had high hopes about season 2, but already a few minuites into the first episode I started feeling restless, I lost track because I could easily get distracted and I had to go back multiple times. Since I had loved the first season I believed that I had to give the second season a fair shot. I tried my best, having watched not all but a few episodes until I couldn't stand it anymore. The casting was not bad, I appreciate the main characters, although I con't think they were a perfect fit for this story or for each other. They weren't clicking with each other. Maybe in some other series/movie they could blossom or really fit together, making the production a hit, but not this one. In addition to that I also believe that the storyline was sort of hastily scribbled up, not really worked on. It felt kind of like they made something just to make something, to not stand there empty handed.
