Colman Domingo Netflix Thriller ‘The Madness’ Is a Schlocky Mess: TV Review
Netflix thriller 'The Madness', a limited series starring Colman Domingo, is a schlocky mess.
There’s just one problem: while Domingo acquits himself just fine as an increasingly frenzied man on the lam, “The Madness” itself is a schlocky mess, its pulpy appeal dimmed by a drawn-out runtime and attempts at social commentary that fail to find their mark. That neighbor turns out to be an infamous white nationalist, and despite reporting both the body and the apparent killers who chased him through the woods to the local authorities, Muncie’s “BLM ties” quickly make him a prime suspect. Muncie has to track down an antifa militant, whom he’s told hangs out at a swinger bar (the type of establishment that definitely exists, and counts extreme leftists among its clientele), so he convinces his soon-to-be-ex wife (Marsha Stephanie Blake) to case the joint in broad daylight.
