This is How Movies Should Be Made

Absolutely brilliant

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

This could've been a great show. I'm always down with the gritty crime/serial killer series, but this sort of fell flat. It comes off heavy handed in almost everything. It's the combination of the writing and the acting. I stuck with it so I suppose it's not a complete waste of time.

Awesome performance from Ms Katic!
Can't wait for the second season!

Look...is this ground breaking...maybe not. Is this worthy of critical acclaim....not sure. What I do know is that I have been thoroughly entertained by this show. I dont know who these pompous "critics" are...but if you had ever been in a court room or talked with a police man....rarely will career ever produce 3 stories that could comprise 1 episode...let alone an entire series.
This is fiction people....get over the believably factor and just enjoy the ride. I have only watched 6 episodes so far and I have been immensely entertained. Action...check...drama...check...tension...check...engaging story...check. I almost didnt watch this simply because I thought after reading the plot that it wouldnt be that interesting...I was wrong. If you have reservations based on the reviews you are reading...take an hour out of your day and watch the first episode. If you dont like it what have you lost?And for the people that are trying to be the next Ebert...get a life.

We did binge the entire series in a couple days. Parts are riveting but minor continuity glitches are distracting. Also everybody but "dad" speaks in a whisper or Batman growl.
Just needed attention to some details to make it more believable. For instance: If you've been beat and kept in an aquarium for 6 years you still have the strength to climb up the side of a building and run cross country and only eat a candy bar with a swallow of water? Taking a breather and maybe a shower would have helped.
Also the last time I tried my battery powered tape recorder that's been sitting in storage for around six years it needed new batteries.
