    Default The penguin

    Only one episode so far, but looks very promising. There's a large hint of the Sopranos, and isn't spoiled by childish OTT characters of past DC series and films. Fantastic performance from Colin Farrell, who masters the art of metamorphosis as well as Christian Bale.

    Yeah, the show rules, definitely a masterful and worthy performance by Farrell. Just like the movie, he totally melts into the role. The makeup job is incredible on him, but it's more than that. He has reached Gary Oldman levels of disappearing into a method acting role, with his limp walk, mannerisms, gravely voice, and a New England dialect that is far from his Irish one. The production values and sets are also top notch.
