Strictly average movie

A lot of fun.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

For more. When will it continue? "Sorry, your review is too short." Why ? Can you blame me for that good TV series is just one season.

This show had moments of intrigue and the whole 'conspiracy' thing is pretty interesting. Some episodes managed to build a good story arch that kept me interested for a while. The biggest problem is with the lead character Mitch McDeere. For a supposed smart lawyer he is dumber than a post. Every other episode requires him to get into some situation that everyone knows is very stupid but he "just has to do it" and ignores everyone's advice. And this is really the main plot driver: Mitch's bullheaded stupidity. If this were pulled out every 6th episode they might get away with it, but time after time it wears thin very quickly. The mixing of 'current' cases with the overall conspiracy theme is also awkwardly handled. We are not sure if it's a regular lawyer show, or a conspiracy show. It's BOTH and neither really work. The attraction and tension between Mitch and his wife is also pretty artificial. I was happy when this was canceled.

There is always more to a show than what meets the eye and some critics are either too biased or too old to know what a good show is. I'm not saying i have any experience in that regard but i watch enough TV to know a good show when i see it. The pilot is everything to a new TV show. I believe this show had everything you need in a pilot. Suspense, thrill, curiosity, heart, wit, smarts. etc. etc....The past 4 episodes i've seen haven't failed either. Regardless if you read the stories or saw the movie which i didn't even know existing. I have seen the movie but didn't put the two together. It doesn't matter anyway you will be entertained nonetheless. Great show on a bad network, NBC hasn't been in the loop with good shows. (in my eyes).

At first glance, this show appears to be heading downhill with your cliché flashback, & not just one, but two. For me personally, it can be off-putting as you're left wondering at what point the story will return to the present and how long that will take. A somewhat sluggishly directed chase scene at the very beginning can be slightly discouraging, however, things can only get better!From the main actor to the rest of the cast as introduced in the pilot, they all portray their characters well and deliver good performances. It's not a perfect set-up and there's room for improvement as far as some of the guest appearances are concerned, but all in all a good show!Would I recommend this show to friends? Yes and hopefully they keep delivering!
