Finished watching Zero Day (Netflix), a modern-day political thriller featuring Robert De Niro as a former president tasked with finding out who is behind a massive cyber attack on the US. This 6-part series, with the myth of American exceptionalism at its heart, suffers from credibility issues given recent events in Washington, and simply doesn't seem real. Plot holes abound. Still, De Niro is always worth watching, even when playing it safe, as he does here.
