Movie Reviews of The Wire - The Complete Second Season
Movie Review: Wow, what a show!
Summary: 5 Stars
After seeing this show I realized how basic the characterization is in most shows. Generally, in both TV and movies, 80% of a character's personality is filled in by the societal role they play. For instance, on the Sopranos (also a favorite) there is little ultimate difference between the various cops and the various hoods. The characters are different in degree rather than in basic type. In "The Wire" so much time is spent on the daily tasks of the characters that you really get a sense that these are complete people. Also, and it seems pretty basic, characters change or at least react in suprising ways. Towards the end the first season, for example, a guy(Major Rawls) who was nothing but mean up until that point shows a much more human side. They let you assume a character is one simple thing (most good shows only do this much) and then add layers that make them seem real. This show is as good as the BEST movies, and has been for three seasons. Most years nothing this good comes out in theatres. I am not overstating the case!
(By the way. I am not under 13, I just wish amazon would let people write reviews without signing in. If you(amazon) do this more people will write reviews. )
