HBO’S “THE NIGHT OF” IS INTELLIGENT
Image by HBO
In The Night Of (Blu-ray and DVD + Digital HD), Pakistani-American college student Nasir ?Naz? Khan takes his father?s taxi to go to a party in Manhattan. His plans go awry and he?s arrested for murder. The intelligent limited series examines NYC’s police investigative tactics, legal proceedings, criminal justice system and prison system.
Review: 4 Buckets of Popcorn. The Night Of, a thinking man’s show, focuses on character development over sex and violence — there is some — to capture and keep viewers’ attention. Riz Ahmed does a great job of transitioning his character, Naz, from a naive student to a street smart prisoner, while John Turturro brings quirkiness to his role as lawyer John Stone.
There is enough mystery to keep viewers captivated for all 8 episodes. The show has received 3 Golden Globe nominations: Best Limited Series Made for Television and 2 for Best Performance by an Actor in a Limited Series Made for Television (Riz Ahmed, John Turturro). It is easy to see why the show, Turturro and newcomer Ahmed have received critical acclaim. 4 buckets of popcorn ? buy it ASAP

2 buckets of popcorn ? wait for it to go on sale at a bargain price
1 buckets of popcorn ? borrow it from a friend or library
