Nice effects though.
Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
View MoreThere's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
View MoreIt's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
View MoreAs many negative reviews have noted, this television show has sub-par acting, weak plotlines, poor direction, and soap-opera like directing, all wrapped up in PG-13 hyper-violence and bikinis and a buddy-cop plot that grows old by the first season. The real problem with this show is what it actually promotes and likely is accepted by the unthinking audience, namely the morality of police brutality and the trampling of constitutional rights. Nearly every show features the "heroes" and "heroines" defying the Fourth and Fifth Amendments and ridiculing the Second Amendment. Houses are broken into, arrested persons are treated as guilty and while handcuffed are beaten, property is searched and seized without warrant or immediate cause. While an audience might like the idea of bad-boy cops as heroes, the show champions the idea that citizens do not have the right to defend themselves against threats to their person or property (or even against a tyrannical government), that arrested citizens are presumed guilty, that citizens' property is not protected by the law (or in this case the supposed defenders/enforcers of law), that arrested do not have the right to due process, etc. It also assumes that cops/law enforcement spend most of their days justifiably running around with their guns drawn, happily shooting presumed bad guys in private or in public spaces (and the cops pay no attention to where all their bullets go as the body count would be huge with most episodes from those wounded and killed by police bullets), beating handcuffed arrested bad-guys in interrogation without the representation by an attorney, etc. (Pay attention to how many times these bad-boy cops beat up people who cannot defend themselves, even if that person plays an overt criminal.) The show is crap, but dangerous crap that perpetuates the denial of foundational freedoms for Americans who apparently accept this mindless and unartistic drivel as normative. Use your brain and reject this twaddle.
View MoreAnd a great deal of fun. It's pretty much pretty people running around talking smack to each other. No one ever gets too upset by the near constant violence that would give most people PTSD. But everyone is super attractive and it's all in good fun
View MoreFirst couple seasons were good with the story line with Wo Fat, Steve's mom and all the mystery, but now the show is just a bunch of filler with no real story line. No wonder Daniel Dae Kim and Grace Park left the show.
View MoreDaniel was in the very first series with his father but suddenly not for some reason apart from money, you have spoiled a good programme. What have we got now, really nothing apart from the two of them being silly and nothing more
