Clever but became too much so at times
Feb 2024
Corporate shenanigans, with a greedy, power crazy Director using accounting, company law and number crunching to realise a shocking dream.
Opposing him are characters out for revenge and others closer to home.
Loved the cast and the characters were a decent mix. No whiney, ineffective, needy females either. All are intelligent and their own women.
It was a gripping story, intelligently written and presented, although towards the end there were some, frankly, ridiculous scenarios.
There is some action, but most of it centres around trying to stay one step ahead using brains not brawn. There are times that focus becomes too heavy and tedious.
Not the most satisfying of endings at all, with the usual message that corruption and worst, can be buried by money and power, which should be totally unacceptable, not the other way around.
Whilst this story was concluded to a point, the ending has left a door ajar, should a S2 ever be considered.
It was OK overall and whilst I wouldn't watch it again, the excellent cast and the plot, did keep me engaged.
