Los últimos días de Ptolemy Grey

...ser på ytan ut som en mordgåta, men lägger istället tonvikten på att fördjupa sig i sina karaktärer mot en fond av både historiska och nutida levnadsvillkor för fattiga svarta i den amerikanska södern.

Handsomely mounted and thoughtfully paced, this is Samuel L. Jackson giving it his all with a complex, emotional, deeply personal role.

Author Mosley is known for his crime fiction and his characters; The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey gets both exactly right.

...this is a richly written, wonderfully acted series with a heartfelt, searing, tender performance by Samuel L. Jackson that ranks among his very best.

Samuel L. Jackson er i topform som manden, der er ved at tage afsked med livet. Han får masser af rum til at give figuren nuancer, og det er en fornøjelse.
