Tear down the empire from the inside out. Academy Award nominee Colin Farrell is The Penguin in the new HBO Original Limited Series, premiering September 19 on Max.
Watched the first episode. On the whole, it's really good: Colin Farrell is gonna win a bunch of awards, and I'm really enjoying Cristin Milioti's take on Sofia Falcone. My only gripe is that the pacing is a bit slow at times, but you would kind of expect that from a first episode when they're starting to build up the narrative.
It was really good, feels like a good mobster show. I haven't read anything about the show prior to watching it, didn't realize it was Collin Farrell as the penguin, went to look up the actor.
