American Crime Story (TV Series) A Random Killing (2018) User Reviews

What a spectacular show and a stellar cast. 10 Stars!

[cmouser88 · 10/10 · 3 February 2018]

There are absolutely no shows on television like this at the moment. Provocative, dark, nuanced, cinematic and exquisite performances. This episode was the best one yet. Judith Light was amazing, yet for me, Darren Criss continues to steal the show. He shines as the psychotic, manipulative Andrew Cunanan. In the wrong hands, the Cunanan character could have been heavy-handed and over the top. But Criss manages to convey so much in subtle moments. Surely an Emmy-winning performance. 10/10 for this episode. Best episode of television I've seen in a long time.

It's a pass from me

Might try again with the next episode but this one was not for me. Started watching because of the trailers about Versace, watching Cunanan be the most annoying person on the planet wasn't worth it. Googled it and seems most if not all of this season is guesswork.. they didn't even catch him, how are we gonna show what he did and why?

Some sources say he wanted to be famous, to be honest, until watching these few episodes I had never even heard of him and it doesn't seem like I was missing out, let's not give him the spotlight now, let him be unknown.

A Random Killing

Judith Light did a good job with her role here, but this was a beyond boring episode of television. They are just going around having Andrew be a generic serial killer. We need highs and lows and character development, but we're not getting that with this season.

It started off fine, but it's too early for filler like this.

Versace?

[Calicodreamin · 5/10 · 24 August 2020]

A good episode in its own right, but nothing about Versace. The storyline was all about Cunanan and his killing prior to Versace. The episode doesn't add much in the way of character development. An unnecessary filler episode.
