Pace's excellent performance was not enough to make the show rewarding.
The series comes off as overtly coy and more than a little aimless.
Period tech drama is fascinating, but expect sexy stuff.
All of the acting is outstanding. No one delivers big speeches. But when they do speak, their words feel as precise and efficient as lines of code.
We aren't quite sure where Halt and Catch Fire is going, but there is certainly enough here to keep us interested.
If you're a fan of Lee Pace or if you enjoy dramas set in the technology world, Halt and Catch Fire is worth checking out.
