Too much of everything
Marketic
It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

What they borrowed from the British original, they improvised. And what a hell of improvisation. Perhaps it is because it does not need any second look to find the same characters in our political arena, local or global. Kevin Spacey is convincing as Frank Underwood and on the same scale Robin Wright as Claire. The characters who have come and gone are also played by fine actors it makes the viewer think and feel that this is most likely what happens beyond the scenes. If you read the biographies of US Presidents and their first ladies, you will find a fraction of them in both Frank and Claire. Also from the key people who are in the White House, past or present. Spare your precious time off your social media account and watch this show, you'll learn a lot and yearn for more.

House of Cards is a better political show and probably the best show on Netflix! Even know it has a very liberal story it is still a good show. Kevin Spacey pulls off a convincing act. I'm not looking forward to the season with just Robin Write. House of cards is a MUST WATCH!

It could be defined as phenomenon. or as the truth portrait expected by public. a serie about politic remembering Shakespeare comedies. a film about power, its levels, its price, its victims, its roots. impeccable acted, having perfect script. and proposing the cold view about every day near reality. so, more than a serie. preserving the mark of Kevin Spacey performance .

... but once I did, I found an engrossing well-acted and well-written drama. Ironically, what the viewer savors about the character that Spacey plays is just what I don't like about him. The smirking hint of evil that seems to lurk behind his smooth charm. This seems to be the point. Nice people, successful people, people who are good husbands and good students - can have an evil streak. I did see 'House of Cards' when it was a BBC production. This adaptation does it justice.
