I think that's a fair critique. S2 definitely went full on "you have no idea what is real or not", which is either going to be extremely satisfying or extremely dissatisfying based on how S3 turns out.

At some point, the obfuscation has to resolve. I felt like it resolved reasonably well in S1, though S2 definitely did the LOST thing and just left you hanging for S3. I'm hopeful, though, as Sam Esmail has apparently written the whole story from start to finish, so he hopefully knows where it's going well enough to give it a graceful resolution.

Totally. I fully 5/5 loved the first season, but it started to go in a direction I didn't love towards the end.

I couldn't even make it through the first episode of season 2.

Exactly how I felt.

It's just more candid in its unreliable narrator aspect than other films.

The Wolf of Wall Street employs a similar trick for part of the film to great effect.
