    Tockinit not horrible nor great
    Protraph Lack of good storyline.
    Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.
    Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
    geordiesdad The first episode, as has been mentioned before, was excellent, with a little bit of everything. Sadly the writers ( if they were in face the same writers ) felt that if 1 teaspoon of excitement per episode was giving good results then 2 cups must be the formula for even better results. Like a lot of amateurish writing and game sequels, writers can't seem to resist 'bumping' up the formula percentages to in the mistaken belief that more is better. By episode three I was tearing out my hair in frustration as they bumbled their way from one ridiculous and preposterous situation to another culminating in a skyjacking.....yes...that's right.....a SKYJACKING....of a tiny, poorly equipped, backwoods airline in the far north. I gagged my way through a few more episodes but the 'plots', for want of a more appropriate and less rude word, were so fantastic and reused....they even recycled emergencies on supposed nearly-unknown landing strips....that I finally gave up in disgust. With all the appeal and inevitability of a Road Runner cartoon I'm amazed that this monstrosity made it through one season...never mind the three it miraculously landed. Somebody wasn't paying attention to the numbers methinks. Anyway.....don't waste your time with this crap unless you're really hard up for some airline drama....picture a cross between the Young and Restless and First Blood.......
    stormguildmaster I stopped watching after Season 1 Episode 109 "New North", this episode was full of racial profiling propaganda, bigotry and political correctness. The East Asian stereotype was very typical as an untrustworthy, conniving lust-driven betrayer who'll do anything for self-gain, of course there's also the US stereotype of a vicious merciless environmentally unfriendly business guru that uses every means necessary to damage the company for no apparent visible hatred, and you have the Canadian stereotype of an ill-tempered employee harassing good old white knight boss that ends up saving the day with his daughter physically harassing the main character Bobby who's of aboriginal decent at the end of this episode with no dire consequences. Disappointing and surprising!
    marco-30-384328 Arctic Air is a typical show that has a little bit of everything. Romance, Action, Family drama, culture and nature. I would classify the acting slightly above average, the stories quite entertaining and after 5-10 episodes you already feel like part of the family. First I didn't like the character of Bobby. Thought he does not represent the typical hero of a TV-series, but I got used to it. Perhaps because the acting got more convincing through the series. Always have to think of R2-D2 and C-3PO when it comes to Dev and Astrid. You cannot expect amazing special-effects from this kind of show but what it offers is satisfactory. Only from time to time some poor CGI-planes disturb the smooth impression of reality. I am actually very sad that the show was canceled after the third season. If it had continued, surely I would have followed the show through the next seasons.
    ellenparker I truly enjoy Arctic Air. I like the actors and the characters they play. I am so glad that Canada is getting more and more Canadian television series. Don't take Arctic Air away. Please bring it back for many more seasons. The scenery is awesome, makes me want to visit the North West Territories and Yukon. I like the idea of using Canadian actors and actresses in this show as I do with shows such as Republic of Doyle and Murdoch Mysteries. I'm glad the actors who are in the USA focus (movies and series) are willing to come home and do Canadian shows. It helps to put Canada on the map in the entertainment world. I see more and more producers and directors making Canadian film. Thanks!
