Scenario
The Jackal is an elusive assassin who makes a living by executing hit movies for the highest pay. He soon meets his match in the form of a tough British intelligence officer who tracks him down in a thrilling cat and mouse chase across Europe. The novel “The Day of the Jackal” is set in 1963 and revolves around the attempted assassination of then French President Charles de Gaulle.
very different facial expressions
A remake of The Day of the Jackal (1973). I think the series is worth watching, especially because Eddie Redmayne’s performance as the assassin is simply brilliant. He embodies his role in an incredibly versatile way, in one scene he is very natural and loving as a family man, in another he is completely calculating and icy, and you can completely believe it from his stories.
She also has unnecessary family scenes that completely distract from the actual plot
He also comes across very convincingly as someone who really knows about guns, and even in action scenes he shows strength and dynamism and quick decision-making skills. On the other hand, the main female role of secret agent Bianca is unfortunately a very flat female role who can only punch and, in my opinion, does not act delicately at all. She is very cruel to both her family and her sources, and gets much more screen time than the Jackal, which unfortunately reduces the tension much more often.

I think her plot is too broad and her role is too unsympathetic for the series to be 100% good. However, since Eddie’s acting is so outstanding and the series has an incredibly high aesthetic quality with great shots of cities and landscapes and first-class James Bond music, I think it is worth watching. season "Silo" is one of the biggest TV and streaming premieres this month.
