Eh, it was alright. They threw a ridiculous amount of information at us and not exactly in the most subtle ways either. I guess they might have aimed to make this less vague than the first season but they might be overdoing it. And I feel there are some tonal issues what with them trying to recreate that creepy under the skin vibe of the first season (like the music which was brilliantly used there is just completely overblown and obnoxious here).
Farrell and McAdams did a good job though, not sold on Kitsch yet (guy has the charisma of a dried up towel) and I feel I need some time to judge Vaughn properly. I think most people were misled by the reports saying he was going to play a gangster/crime boss. In the flashback with Farrell he seemed like one of those blue collar thugs who run some minor business on the block, and the present scenes seem to emphasize that there's more ambition and focus in the people that surround him (his wife and his right hand man). Also note that none of his 'partners' seem to respect him without Caspere being there and he seems out of his league in the big boy's game for now.
Nah, that's not what I got. I think they just gave him a name and an address. Also, any one notice that Vince's creepy side kick has red hair? Maybe that whole thing wasn't quite as it seems
I'll say one thing, the guy in the picture Vaughn handed him (said to match the description) looked nothing like the kid either. So there are multiple levels of ambiguity to that entire rape/kid situation.
