How one feels about Apple TV’s new 10-part Cape Fear adaptation will depend largely on whether one buys Javier Bardem’s well-worn tough-guy routine. In 2012’s James Bond movie, Skyfall, the Spaniard played an ex-MI6 agent damaged in body and soul, but he hid his character’s depravity behind a layer of icy politeness. Even the 57-year-old’s most celebrated role, as the hitman Anton Chigurh in the Coen brothers’ No Country for Old Men (2007), featured similar choices: dead-eyed serenity masking murderous intent. I found both of those performances mannered and obnoxious. Go ahead and put my critics’ guild application in the trash. For those who disagree, the new series offers yet another exercise in elegantly veiled menace.
