Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Barry is a masterpiece, and something that will surprise you so much you feel numb.Bill Hader's sitting is amazing, and plays the role of an existential crisis well... Almost too well at times. The supporting cast grow and develop with Hader's character, making the entire show shift forward with time (rare these days). The plot develops naturally, and the value to be found in the script and "acting classes" is huge. A shining part of the show is it's use of sound, and the perfectly placed suspense music, rock music, and theatrical dialogue that's meaningless-but-sounds-serious.This show won't be as funny as you think, but it's brilliance would be lost if they changed anything!

I expect Hader to be great, and he is. An excellent mixture of comedy and tragedy. The supporting cast is an ensemble of superb actors playing satire, serious and at times, outrageous. My wife and I had to start saving a few episodes for later so that we didn't blow through the whole season in one weekend, which would have been easy to do. The main characters are brilliantly conceived and performed, and the supporting characters are equally gifted. Winkler, Carrigan, and Root steal every scene they are in. Newsome is a lusty detective with a nose for deceit...she is wonderful to watch in action. This is a workable ensemble and I hope that we get to see many seasons of Barry. Congratulations to all the cast for an enjoyable first season.

Okay, the premise seemed interesting and I needed to see a comedy. What a sleeper! Episode after episode more intriguing, putting down layer after layer of complexity. A must watch.

There are some funny moments and acting is fine. Yet something is missing and in the end the series just leaves you cold. It's quite boring actually. Too bad, I really wanted to like this one...
