The Crowded Room

Tom Holland has an undeniable talent, but this is yet another role that was more rewarding for him than for the viewer. It takes place in 1979, when his character and a friend take part in a shooting at Rockefeller Center. In an attempt to understand the reason for the incident, he spends much of the series in jail being interviewed by a psychiatric researcher (Amanda Seyfried). This leads to numerous flashbacks that start to unravel the mystery. Unfortunately, the scenario is too twisted yet repetitive and ultimately confusing. Holland and Seyfried are strong, but they’re constantly fighting the confusion. During Ep 6, there’s finally a revelation that helps focus the situation, but it remains to be seen whether that alone can justify 4 more hours to solve this frustrating mystery. (Review based on 6 out of 10 eps) 2 out of 5 stars (2 / 5)
