The Day of the Jackal

It’s got a dope soundtrack

my god what a fucking show. i have so much to say idk where to start. i knew from the first teaser this was going to be incredible, and that’s an understatement. the score bro, that celeste intro hits so fucking well, reminds me of adele in 007 holy fuck. even with just the first frames of the first episode starting with “everything in its right place” made me fall in love. it just got better and better, soundtrack, theme track, never missed the tone of the show. but my GOD the cinematography… fuckkkk. not one frame was mid, but definitely the last episode had my favorite one. ifykyk. never missed one single shot. camera work was so precise and elegant. production design was bonkers. all the locations and attention to detail left me speechless. one of my favorite touches was the fucking steady cam to balance the sniper haha omg it had me excited. the makeup of the jackal… chef’s kiss. but most importantly why i love this show so much is the fucking story telling. such great screenplay. and last but not least the cast, so so so good. eddie is a fucking bad ass. úrsula is a babe like always. both of them had incredible chemistry. lashana also performed incredible. i just don’t know what else to say. easily one of my favorite shows of 2024. peacock thank you for investing in this masterpiece of a show. can’t fucking wait for szn II. 10 / 10

Killer soundtrack, awesome action, espionage thriller. Nuanced characters and lots of globe trotting and vistas/locales. Very much Bourne Identity and Tom Clancy/Jack Ryan vibes but love the cat and mouse chase between protagonist and antagonist. Top quality suspenseful show.

HOT ASS! this shit was addictive

Fully immersed 14/10
