Jeff Daniels delivers a captivating performance in Netflix's six-episode series "A Man in Full," adapted from Tom Wolfe’s 1998 novel. Playing Charlie Croker, a ruthless Atlanta real estate mogul, Daniels embodies a character who revels in power and excess, facing a reckoning for his toxic behavior. The series, directed by Regina King and Thomas Schlamme, explores themes of wealth, power, and justice, though it struggles with the complexity of Wolfe's narrative and doesn't fully match the success of shows like "Succession."
