Truly Dreadful Film

Touches You

Sorry, this movie sucks

Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

But as a long running show, not so much.... This show makes me think of Alka-Seltzer, prune juice and afternoon naps. The exchanges Dr. Harrow has with his co-workers are funny but it can't hold a show. The female boss is absolutely useless, if I had an employee like that I would fire his ass (I suppose a female boss was written in for the sake of diversity, but it misses it's mark). Long term show commitment? not for me.

It feels a lot like the writers were trying to have a little bit of everything in order to catch all possible viewers, but ended up with a weird bland: Castle, Dexter, Forever, and Crocodile Dundee. Brisbane looks great, but I think they used a few outer shots from other places (most people won't feel the difference...). The thing is for me, all the other characters surrounding Daniel Harrow were much more interesting and engaging than the lead itself. Had a few funny moment (Harrow's banter with his co-workers) but thats pretty much it.

When you dive into a story that uses Pathology as a ground base for each episode, you would expect that the script writer and effect team do some research on the subject instead of imagining how it is supposed to work/look like! Nothing is realistic, they re playing with bodies like they have no idea what they are doing (because they didn't do any research?), the plots and clues are big like a house and appear on their own, and half the medical facts/anatomy are embarrassingly wrong! i went as far as episode 3, with effort, but then got bored about how bad the story was, how overdone the acting is, and got really annoyed about the inaccurate facts. seriously embarrassing.

Wow! Just wow! Can the writers please come up with a better idea than just ripping off Dexter? Forensic officer - check! Lives on boat - check! Possible killer - check! Dumps body in water - check! And I REALLY HATE the way they have to have "moments of light heartedness" in there with stupid jingly music to accentuate the "isn't this funny" moment. If you're gong to go gritty - GO GRITTY!!!! It's like Australians are embarrassed to produce something that is actually serious and dark all the way through. And FFS Gary Sweet? Don't we have any other actors in this country? Was bored by halfway and the reveal at the end - ohhhh it was Harrow dumping the body! - didn't see that one coming! Snore! Won't bother with the rest. The Brits and Scandinavians do it sooooo much better.
