Most excellent. .... More than anything else there is Corrin, who played Princess Diana in the fourth season of “The Crown” and has an electric presence even in repose. .... Darby remains very much at the center of the story. Go find her there.
Aan absorbing, eerie brain twister that delivers a shocking denouement. (I’m sworn to secrecy). For mystery lovers, it doesn’t get much better than this.
A Murder at the End of the World is a gripping, pacy thriller. It navigates its way through a century of detective influences, from Conan Doyle to Gillian Flynn, with an agility that leaves it never less than wholly watchable.
“A Murder at the End of the World,” for the most part, makes sure we remember who matters — while still keeping us guessing to the very end.
It’s a tricky needle to thread, trying to construct a whodunit that deprioritizes the who in favor of the people behind the it; mileage will vary on how successfully you think it’s pulled off. At its worst, the series moves the way Andy’s titans talk, circling its gloomy central concerns without seeming to get much of anywhere for long periods of time. But at its best, it channels Darby’s anguish over existing in a world that can feel unbearably beautiful in one moment and intolerably painful in the next.
This thriller is Marling/Batmanglij at their most accessible, if at the expense of surprise. It’s another showcase for Corrin, an actor who only gets more interesting.
Beyond its first two episodes, “A Murder at the End of the World” just isn’t thrilling. Twists and turns fizzle into bland exposition dumps.
