The shots and visuals are beautiful. The one thing that is sad to see is how old Ian McShane is now. He looks ancient. That doesn't take away from his masterful delivery, ever. He is an amazing actor and could sell Eskimos ice water. Emily Browning is a tiny little firecracker and does a great job. Mad Sweeney is probably my favorite character hands downs. What's funny is that sometimes he looks good and others not so much. It is almost like that episode of Seinfeld with the girl who looked good and bad at turns and you never knew who was going to show up. Everyone else is great. The series moves somewhat slower than I think most would like, but they are going for quality over speed. Some people just can't sit down long enough anymore to enjoy a great meal, much less a great series. Shame, because they're missing out.
