(SPOILERS) I like what this season attempted. "The occult of transportation ownership," but too many details we're convoluted. Like the important detail of the little brother and sister. That got lost in a monotone, monologue.
But I did love the performances and music. I thought all of the 4 main actors did an incredible job performing, especially Vince Vaughn.
That being said, I hate the ending.
I'm all for a negative ending, like the revelation about season 1's cult and how strong it is. But it felt very unresolved. The murder turned out to be trivial to a much bigger problem, and there was no big climax with how powerful the system was. We already knew that from the first episode.
I guess we're left to speculate that this journalist that Ani (Rachel McAdams) hands the evidence to is going to "Take down the system" but that same journalist stopped his 8-piece feature on the corruption of Vicci after Colin Farrel beat him up on the first episode.
I feel like Vicci would have no problem snuffing out that journalist.
The show is still better than most Television, but yeah I agree.
Outside of a few highlights, this season was very disappointing compared to the first.
