I've been looking forward to The Day of the Jackal ever since I first heard about it. Then I saw the trailers and my excitement grew even more. Well, after seeing it I can say that it without a doubt lived up to my expectations. Everyone already knows what a terrific actor Eddie Redmayne is but I still had my doubts about him playing this role. I was wrong because he absolutely killed it. He plays the anti-hero here perfectly and has you rooting for him to succeed. This series is best watched binged because I can promise when you finish an episode you can't wait to start the next. When Redmayne's character (The Jackal) is on a mission you're on the edge of your seat waiting to see what happens next. The Jackal reminds me of a James Bond spy character but who turned bad. I definitely recommend this series.
