Brilliant...
12 June 2011 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

The opening of the 6th episode is pretty brilliant... the cinematography masterful, and the writing impeccable. Of course, after the previous episode's cliffhanger, stakes are up here. Still, the series continues to move with a great pace, and with every episode we get to know the characters more and more.

Dialogue is a big factor here, especially in this episode. I can't say that this is an easy series to write, because it isn't. However, it doesn't get any more realistic or raw than this. The performances are even more brilliant here, and we are finally starting to understand other characters that may at first have seemed insignificant.
