Pretentiously self indulgent and on a certain level disingenuous, if not delusional, The Veil, is well named. The opening see's our heroine, armed with a truly God awful, fake English, accent, (not so well received pronunciation anyone?) engineer the arrest of a villain. It doesn't get any better from there I'm afraid, with an almost lynching at a refugee camp, on the Syrian border the next "fun experience", for the unfortunate viewer. The overriding feeling this series gives off is the by now impossible to sustain fiction, that the West are the "good guys. " Sorry but that ain't the case, the veil has been well and truly lifted on that one. The US and UK establishments, in particular, can only be described as warmongers on the world stage but well, you know, lets try to "pull the wool", anyway. Putting aside the by now thoroughly jaded plug for ersatz Western virtue and female empowerment, is a rather trite, pretentious, self important series that tries on a Jane Blonde (yes that's a bad James Bond joke) and fails spectacularly. There's nothing new or even terribly intelligent on offer here. Its a formulaic spy knock off that wants you to take it more seriously, than it actually deserves. Padded out by exposition, we have all seen a thousand times before. Any upside? Acting is alright, I don't mind Elizabeth Moss and cinematography is competent. Choice of music is a bit cliched but then cliches are really all we have here, for the most part. So no surprises really. In summary, yet another "deeply shallow" experience, from the Western entertainment industry.One that increasingly gives the impression it thinks the box, is more important, than whats inside.
