I usually find politically-driven dramas so tedious, but this is more of a thriller with its plot twists and tight pacing. Kevin Spacey is my favourite actor and he certainly does not disappoint here.

This show is incredibly well done, and will get you absolutely hooked after the first episode. Very political and intellectual with some of the best writing/plot/acting i have ever seen. I would say its up there with 'Homeland' and 'Game of Thrones'. Although, you can always watch on Netflix instead of buying!

Spacey's acting is simply flawless in this well-written political drama. Through every small bit of ambition, nothing can stop Francis Underwood (Spacey) to attain his goals, whatever is needed to be done.
