Unlike so many dramatic “limited” series that end on a note making it clear they’re hoping for and planning on a Season 2, Steven Soderbergh’s complex and richly layered and beautifully filmed “Full Circle” on Max does exactly what the title promises by the time we reach the final, perfect shot of its six-episode run: It brings us full circle in a way that makes every step of the journey so worthwhile.
Of course, many limited series merit a second season; heck, many of the characters in “Full Circle” could easily warrant a return visit. Still, there’s something especially rewarding about sticking with this series through some admittedly murky passages, only to see how the masterful Soderbergh and the veteran scribe Ed Solomon (who collaborated with Soderbergh on “Mosaic” and wrote the “Bill & Ted” trilogy and “Men in Black”) weave it all together in plausible and dramatically fashion. The ending of “Full Circle” ties up multiple storylines, and quite well.
