You won't be disappointed!
Disturbing yet enthralling
Did you people see the same film I saw?
There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
View MoreWith a lot of series revolving around police work, including a handful or so already dealing specifically with this particular aspect/type, this needed a niche, something to call its own. What they came up with is to have the lead, Mastriani(who works as a psychic for the FBI, tracking down people who have gone missing), have strange visions, that are puzzle pieces relating to whatever case she's currently working on. If this sounds like a plot device and even a deus ex machina... then you're kinda right. It was, on several occasions. The role is played by Caterina Scorsone, a young Canadian girl who carries it quite well. Acting is a mixed bag at times. Quality ranges a bit. Where the first season was fairly straight-forward, the second replaces all characters but the main(and that was not entirely well-received, as viewers had grown attached to the people and relationships), stylizes it somewhat(adding, among other things, Vivica A. Fox and a new theme song with more of a rock music flavor), and gives it an "edge", represented by the attitude of the new token Black cast member, and Justin Louis as the tough-as-nails FBI Director Pollock. There was good and bad to the changes. I can imagine some abandoning it after so much of what they were(at the very least) used to being tossed out the window, in spite of the move clearly intending to attract a larger audience. I like both groups of episodes, in different ways. It was a classic crime-drama, with focus on the people. Then it became action-driven and cool, resembling newer television efforts in the genre. It never really stopped being a mostly passable mystery, and kept you guessing fairly nicely. I recommend this to fans of the concept, especially the supernatural portion. 7/10
View MoreThis show had consistently compelling story lines and a great cast. While it was never going to break the mould, it was a show that I looked forward to watching each week. Caterina Scorsone was particularly good in the lead role, with Justin Louis and Vivica Fox in particular also giving fine performances. I'm not sure why the previous reviewer didn't like the new cast; I prefer them to season one.It's a great shame it got cancelled when it did. The writers had just started introducing more elements of a Season story arc format which was lifting the show to a new level of interest, and the character's lives were becoming more three-dimensional and interesting than in previous seasons. It was also left on something of a cliffhanger, which is annoying to say the least. Since ratings were consistently high, it seems an odd decision to cease production. If it's not going to be re-scheduled, which in my opinion it should be, Sony could at the very least release Seasons 1 and 3 on DVD.
View MoreI liked the first season a lot better than the second.Vivica A. Fox was good in Two Can Play That Game but the jeans and heels attire took the integrity off her character in Missing and now even Caterina Scorsone is dressing the same! You can look older without looking trashy.It could be that there is no 4th season due to the writing/directing but I had no complaints when Gloria Reuben was FBI agent Nicole Scott. I was hoping Gloria Reuben would replace Marianne Jean-Baptiste on Without a Trace but I was only disappointed, yet again, with the addition of Roselyn Sanchez.Is there anything good left to watch?
View Morei cant believe people can say this show is unwatchable, its amazing. i love it and cant wait to see the next episodes. the actors are amazing and they make you feel like you are actually there. the girls are sexy and the men are handsome, what else do you want. in case you haven't watched it, its about a girl who was struck by lightening and now has visions about people who need help. she is now a FBI agent and uses her visions to help her. the story line sounds corny but trust me it is 1,000 times better when you watch it. if you are in the UK it is on living TV at 3 and 4. A MUST WATCH. if you like it when you have seen it, there are books which are just as good.
