After two episodes, I'm in. I think Hoffman could end up being the best lead on an HBO show since Gandolfini.
I like the dialogue, I like the hard-boiled mood, I like how believable the seedy characters and locations seem, and I like the skill with which they've filmed the horse races.
I'm not 100% sold yet, but I'm looking forward to riding this one out and seeing where they go with it...
