    serviceable in the role, performing capably. But that’s about it. He doesn’t do anything especially noteworthy with his acting, and he does nothing to make the part his own. This performance is indistinguishable from if any other equally unskilled actor played the part. Simply, Modine does what he has to, but he never impresses. The supporting cast is much better than Modine. D’Onofrio is very good as the…

However, the reviewer within me compelled me to watch season three with an open mind. And I will…
