Review of Archie

Archie (2023)
3/10
It's really Dyan Cannon venting
8 December 2023
What a slapped together, disappointing, spiteful mess. I am not saying that Archie Leech/Cary Grant was a saint. I'm sure he was a complex, flawed, fascinating human being like the rest of us, but writ large. None of this is explored with any honesty. It's just Dyan Cannon preening.

There are glaring historical inaccuracies, inexcusable for someone so public.

The acting is flat and well known people come off as caricatures. Nobody seems to be getting into the characters. They all seem to be just impersonating. This is a shame because so many are very talented, serious actors and they are totally wasted.

Prime has dropped only the first two episodes. I think I will give the next two a pass.
