Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Celia A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
thiagoneves-28871 The title of the second season is incredibly misleading. It's about the killer's past and relationships, not about Versace. The timeline is very frustating. There is no sense of progress in the story. It just keeps getting deeper and deeper into the killer's past. After a fantastic first season, a terrible second one. Not worth the time.
Bertaut What's interesting about this season of ACS is the narrative structure. The opening scene sees Andrew Cunanan (Darren Criss) murder Versace (Edgar Ramírez), and the show then goes backwards, with each episode set earlier than the previous one, an achronological structure that unifies form and content; this isn't about a murder, it's about how Cunanan became a serial killer. Within this, the show deals with two interrelated issues; 1) the concept that one must work hard to be successful, and 2) the desire to be remembered. Cunanan is obsessed with the second, but unwilling to acknowledge the first, despite his conviction of his own greatness. His attitude is nicely critiqued by Versace himself ("Life isn't about convincing people you can do great things. It's about doing them"), and the last shot masterfully encapsulates much of Cunanan's deepest existential fears. For all that, however, the season is good, but not great. The last two episodes are far and away the strongest, especially Jon Jon Briones as Modesto, Cunanan's detestable father, but, overall, it isn't a patch on 'The People v. O.J. Simpson'.7/10
vidur111 The second season is the biggest let off I've seen . If your life depended on watching this show, JUST DIE , it'd be way less painful than watching this piece of garbage
redheadolga Whatever critics say, this season indisputably has one thing - it has style. It's provocative. It has enough truth to it to make it believable and enough lies to make it memorable. That's exactly how legends are made.
