    Lacking....
    Costumes are fabulous, and Helen Mirren is obviously fantastic, however it's missing something! Potemkin is laughable, I can't take him seriously at all! A lot of over acting going on there in my opinion. I tolerated Episodes 1 & 2, but by the end of 3 just felt irritated by it. Not sure it's the epic that Sky/HBO were hoping for!
