The Review

Written by Parent Guide Plus Editors

The story takes place in the fictional, snowbound town of Normal, Minnesota. It follows Ulysses (Bob Odenkirk), an unassuming interim sheriff who recently relocated there to recover from marital woes and moral injuries in the line of duty. When a botched bank robbery interrupts the sleepy municipality's peace, he inadvertently uncovers a massive, town-wide international criminal conspiracy.
