Interesting TV version of that Ben Afflect/Samuel Jackson movie


Beef is basically based on that Ben Affleck/Samuel Jackson movie where road rage (I think it was called "Road Rage"? I'll look it up after, Edit: "Changing Lanes" is the name of the movie) takes over and doesn't dissipate and leads to extreme consequences.

While the movie ended much more nicer and I feel that's how it would eventually end up in real life, there are consequences and it is possible it doesn't either in real life.

The Walking Dead guy (I don't really watch Walking Dead but saw I think the 1st season and maybe 2nd season and I liked this actor and his chemistry with that white chick who becomes his girlfriend I think) was really good and acts so well.

I think this show is high octane like Breaking Bad and the actress is also pretty good albeit she has that irritating annoying face and demeanor for this role which fit perfectly. Quiet on surface but a tornado below surface. Also her driving skills are amazing and commendable honestly. Esp for the fairer sex :)

While the whole thing started with basically a non-event at a parking lot, the extremes they took it to here was high action high octane and it does captivate you albeit it makes you angry and increases your blood pressure.

Overall I thought it was a decent copy of the movie.
