A remake of The Day of the Jackal (1973)
Line of Events
The Jackal is an elusive assassin who makes his living by committing high-stakes murders. He soon meets a worthy opponent in the form of a stubborn British intelligence officer who follows him on an exciting cat-and-mouse chase across Europe. The novel “The Day of the Jackal” is set in 1963 and concerns an assassination attempt on then-President of France Charles de Gaulle. The series brings the action to the modern era.
This obsession with putting songs in movies/TV series is driving me crazy
I’m enjoying it so far (5 episodes), despite some very bad decisions by the people who made it. 1. The songs themselves are good…as songs…but they completely ruin the movie scenes. The Day of the Jackal is a thriller and the last thing you want to hear is someone singing songs.
10 episodes is too long
Absolutely ridiculous. 2. For example, Bianca’s family scenario is nothing more than filler. The cast is not to blame.
Many reviewers blame Lashana Lynch
3. The directors should be criticized for inventing such a completely absurd character to chase after a jackal. There is no one else who could have played such an incredible character. Normally I would turn off the TV after 20 minutes, but this time the show is good enough to last for at most 6 The new season of “The Silo” is one of the biggest TV and streaming premieres this month.
