I don't hate him, but gives me flashbacks of Altered Carbon S02. The season was ass in general, but his Kovacs was a big part. Probably not hot fault, he did what was asked to do.

It's interesting you bring that up, because it's the example that really put this on the radar for me. He gave a generic action guy kinda performance and people reacted like he was the worst actor of his generation and had single-handedly killed the show.

The season was a massive letdown vs the first one, and he was much worse lead than the original. Maybe he's excessively blamed for the overall result

S1 of that show was ass as well.

In general or from somebody who read the books? I did like it, but those who read it before didn't seem to.

I am not speaking for any larger group.

I have never read the book.
