Yeah, if an actor can elicit a strong emotion from you, they've done a good job. Disgust is the operative word here with Bernthal. He WAS Wayne Jenkins.
He also nailed the Baltimore accent. I thought that he must've grown up around there, and it turns out he did.
The DOJ Civil Rights Lady was really good too. And rather attractive!
Great acting from top to bottom, really. I wish there was more of it to watch.
I hope Simon does more cop stuff because it's better than his non cop stuff.
Although Show Me a Hero was really good too, but nobody talks about that one.
