What reviewers say

Common ground

A well-produced, well-acted dramatization of a startup's spectacular rise and fall driven by two deeply narcissistic, delusional founders.

Fans praised

  • Jared Leto and Anne Hathaway deliver transformative, Emmy-worthy performances
  • Engaging dramatization of a fascinating real-life cautionary tale about startup hubris
  • High production values, slick cinematography, and compelling narrative pacing

Detractors panned

  • Jared Leto's exaggerated accent and overacting make the lead character grating and unbelievable
  • Overlong at 8 episodes; the story drags with repetitive scenes of narcissistic behavior
  • Unlikeable, one-dimensional main characters make the viewing experience unpleasant
