King & Maxwell Audience Reviews

Diagonaldi Very well executed

Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

winstonfg It's probably unfair to be comparing a series that's 8 episodes old with one that's past the ton, but it's probably inevitable considering its niche.So far, as a crime comedy series, it seems nice and perky. Nothing wildly challenging; but then again it doesn't take itself too seriously, so it would be churlish to be super picky - although the writers do sometimes go overboard with the "cutesy" dialogue.The leads are good - it's nice to see Jon Tenney in a lead role, and Rebecca Romijn is a pleasant surprise as the feisty, competitive Mrs-Peel-for-the-2010s - but the real standouts are the satellite characters of Edgar (Ryan Hurst) and Benny (Dichen Lachmann). I certainly hope they're developed more.I also like the gradually emerging subplot of the mystery behind the assassination that got Sean kicked out of the SS (interesting initials those - and actually used that way in the program); but I hope they add a bit more depth to our heroes, and maybe explore the possibilities of "enhanced friendship" between Sean and Michelle.So: Not bad - I've certainly seen worse - but not quite in 'Castle' territory yet.7/10 right now; and I hope it gets better, because I'll be watching.

Erika-737-499686 The cast is talented. Baldacci characters are always so interesting, but the depth doesn't translate to the screen. I love the role of Edgar and he could be more developed. I think the writing (or perhaps the directing) doesn't lend authenticity to the story. It is like sitting in an audience when someone is making a speech, and watching the speech-maker lose his audience. It's uncomfortable. I joined IMDb for the first time simply to post this feedback for what it's worth. For example, the trunk scene and the bar scene were just painful to watch. I was not pulled in to the story, but instead felt uncomfortable that this was obviously being acted. IMHO there's too much going on and it needs to be simplified and the characters more developed. The actors are at times over acting to pull off the script. The good news is that the audience seems to really WANT it to work. Great recipe, please work on making it more realistic and credible!

PartialMovieViewer I am a big David Baldacci fan, and, 'King and Maxwell', have the opportunity to become a huge cult classic. I do feel a solid intro is needed though (i.e. pilot the show with a proper rendition of "Split Second.") The producers/director/writer can do this at any point in their first season – just make it a 2 hour special. That introduction is very important (in my opinion of course.) The cast is very strong. Jon Tenney and Rebecca Romijn are getting their characters down pretty good - I like them already. I already love to hate Michael O'Keefe and Chris Butler – those two are the quintessential antagonizing gems – their characters are vital. I do have one quandary though – where in the world did Ryan Hurst's character come from? Forget that question. Whatever you do, don't let him go. This guy really adds something that is not there in the books - kind of a friendly awkwardness. Like I said – I do enjoy David Baldacci and these are my two (King and Maxwell)favorite characters. Both are very good at what they do and are very serious crime solvers – but neither are too serious about their private lives and would fail if left to function solo. I like them both. I do agree – work is needed to succeed and that is why I suggest some kind of two hour pilot based on, "Split Second." The audience will feel a closer tie to the characters.

bkoganbing Jon Tenney fresh from being an FBI agent and married to Kyra Sedgwick in The Closer and Rebecca Romjin fresh from being married to John Stamos in real life co-star in a new television King&Maxwell. The two are former Secret Service agents who had two tragedies break on them while on the job. Now they're private detectives and in addition Tenney is a lawyer. Being both a PI and an attorney opens up a whole lot of story possibilities. Tenney can be a lawyer and he can have Romjin do his investigating and occasionally lend her a hand. On The Closer Tenney was a recovering alcoholic and he continues in the same guise here.Romjin and Tenney looked comfortable working together. Working out of WAshington, DC also opens up all kinds of possibilities for political intrigue in their cases as well.I hope the show finds an audience.
