I thought the ending was bang on with just one exception. Won't elaborate here due to spoilers. Having said that, it is in fact made somewhat (or maybe totally) possible/plausible when referenced by one of the lines 2 mins from the end.
Alan Pardew could pick up a few pointers from Ep8
Hmmmm, watching it tonight.
I've been watch House of Cards (US version) over the last week..... late to the party I know, but that's really good.
Spoiler alert but this was on one for the other forums I go on
And the guy who did the steady cam work was a guy I was at school with 🙂
Great show, really enjoyed it, there was something about ep8 that just felt a bit off, sort of rushed, like I said though, still great.
seen ep1 but have the remaining 7 downloaded for the weekend whilst I'm stepdad sitting.
I watched the first ep loved it so I "cough cough" found the rest and watched it in one go from start to finish. good tv and cracking performance from woody .
I have to say I could not have watched on a week by week format.
Hmmmmm loved the entire series. Best thing on TV for a while.... But.... Last episode was a little weak. Bit of a let down...... Apart from the dialogue between russ and woody. Awesome show... I think the ending was always going to be a let down.
+1 watching it one go, best way : )
Watched it this weekend, and found it a bit disappointing. Never seemed sure if it was driven by the plot or the relationship between the two main characters and somehow fell short on both counts.
Ultimately the mystery just wasn't as "clever" as the scene that was set, the cinematography created the tension and mood, but the script failed to match.
Woody Harrelson was also at best average in it, he was completely out acted by Mcconaughey. That alone just lead to wishing they had spent more time exploring Rust's dysfunction and back story than they did, and given Harrelson less screen time.
It is good, but it doesn't come close to living up to the hype and fawning that has been lavished upon it.

just finished watching it and im in the same camp. very good, well acted, but i got lost in parts, sometimes cos i just couldnt make out what had been said in that quiet, southern drawl.
very good indeed tho, it was the acting and atmosphere that made it, as i didnt think the story was really up to [i]that[/i] much.

I thought they balanced each other very well. Two characters of Rusty's stature would have been overwhelming.
Alan pardew 🙂
So, Colin Farrel and Vince freaking Vaughn! I thought Mcconaughey was useless until he did TD so I'll 'try' and keep an open mind.
Colin Farrel is a good actor. S'all in the eyebrows.
Been watching 'Gomorrah' in the meantime? Abloutely brilliant.
Have not seen that.
Yeah Farrel is good but can Vaughn play anything besides annoying? Will Ben Stiller be the bad guy? 😉
Oh FFS ,Vince 'made of wood' Vaughn.
I won't be watching .
oh sweet jezus
After the success of the first season, you'd think they could get somebody better than that pair of jokers.
is disappoint
Vince freaking Vaughn!
OOoooof! The man who hasn't made a decent film since Swingers.
...apparently the new director did the Fast and the Furious films. Although, he is only doing a couple of episodes. Several directors on board for the season.
Harumph.
Don't know as I'd know either of them if I fell over them. I saw "Vince Vaughn" and thought "oh, the guy who did Breaking Bad?" ...
You don't know who Colin Farrel is?
Behave.

Its' probably fashionable to not like him as he's a bit of a celeb. Brilliant in Tigerland and that there one that Jamie posted, amongst others.
