There's nothing special to report about Ozark. It's not the risk taking drama Netflix might believe it to be. If crime drama is your thing, the show is worth a look. But, it's not going to appeal to anyone outside the genre's demographic.July 20, 2017
Ozark does most things right. Not every plot point feels completely plausible, but the show looks good and plays well; the writing is crisp and not too colorful; the performances are unforced and believable.July 17, 2017
Bateman, better known for comedies such as Arrested Development, unleashes a frank blue stare that could mean anything from menace to guile to idiocy. His lack of readability keeps things fresh and unpredictable as nasty shocks unfold.July 20, 2017
Ozark isn't anything we haven't seen before, but that doesn't mean it isn't solid. In fact, its star isn't the thing that's keeping this show above the lake water.July 20, 2017
Ozark can be excruciatingly cumbersome. There are many moving parts, none compelled to move with haste. If the characters were more engaging and likable, pace might not even be an impediment. They're not, so it is.July 20, 2017
Richly human and ruthlessly plotted -- though overeager in repeatedly stating its existential theme of bad choices and worse consequences -- Ozark is a triumph for Bateman.July 20, 2017
Even when the series seems to be drifting, it keeps luring you in.July 19, 2017
Dubuque quickly gives us a strong ensemble of city folk and hicks, innocents and thugs. The overall vibe of the show is suspenseful, but there are small pockets of comedy usually found in the behavior of the locals.July 20, 2017
The main reason why Ozark, the new Netflix series, feels so underpowered has to do with its star, Jason Bateman (who also directs): a good actor who badly wants for charisma, he simply can't carry it alone.July 19, 2017
Netflix has yet another unique player in its assembly line of original series.
