The Devil wears black, dances, manipulates and has several voice tones. 

I gotta give this one a 4 star rating, mainly because of the second half of the show, those episodes really elevate this as a whole.

I was totally unaware of the real events, I didn't even knew Theranos existed, so I went for this not knowing what to expect.

So, first of all I gotta say that it totally blew my mind how she managed to manipulate, deceived, lied and fooled pretty much everything and everyone around her for so long.

Amanda was insanely good here (at being bad), her character has so many layers, all bad and manipulative yes, but still several, and she embraced them all very well, almost a inner shape-shifting ability as she went along, and according to her needs at the time.

I fact, not just her (but specially her ofc), but the whole cast is very good, both the young and also the seniors, they all do their part so well that you can't help but to accept all that is happening, both the good and the bad things, no matter how insane or how implausible they might seem, because of how convincing everyone is throughout the entire show.
