Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

Hayleigh Joseph This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

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

annevejb I noticed this because the supporting actors have Taylor Lautner and Bella Thorne as the kids of the secret agent. These do not appear all that often, but the home life of the spy is a big ingredient of the story, if not an ingredient that takes up much screen time.Taylor, I only noticed him because of Kristen Stewart, someone who I tend to take seriously indeed.Bella. She headlines in a recent Disney song and dance type series and if the highlights of that are anything like as good as the highlights of Disney TV movies such as HSM and Camp Rock then this is a young actress who I will need to take seriously too. So, I experience the Shake It Up sampler DVDs as rather like the grit of the worst grit of Camp Rock 2, My Own Worst Enemy as a more optimistic example of her work.As far as series go, this is not the sort of thing that I would usually watch, but I still have to rate it as a bit above average. Very acceptable action stories, though those who specialise in these will doubtless be more fussy. My top ten in 2013 had Zoey 101 and Lizzie McGuire and Full House and Buffy and Pete And Pete at the top of the league, second childhood stuff. I experience some other series for kids as working to bring second childhood down. Worst Enemy is not a story for kids, but I find it better than some that are.I found the DVD set at a really low price so had no qualms about purchasing this on a speculative basis. At the price I paid I have no reason to complain and I found it to be an interesting purchase.

missesaw The ads and trailers for My Own Worst Enemy were exciting and intriguing to say the least. One guy, Christian Slater, seemingly two different people who are clueless as to their lots in life. Henry, the family guy accountant, and Edward, the egocentric assassin. How were they going to pull that off so it was new, fresh? But pull it off they did.But there were scripting and conflict issues with Henry v. Edward. I found myself yelling at Henry when in difficult situations because of his utter stupidity for self preservation. Laughing at Edward when he diddled with the wife and she was suddenly a very, very happy stay at home mom.As the season went on, I wasn't sure how long I could put up with Henry's stupidity....then there was a plot turn, a scripting turn and it all came together. It then hit me -- Henry, though lovable family guy -- was *supposed* to be the clueless wonder. The company made sure of it. The military/intelligence orgs' programming of people is already good, but the premise of this show brought that to new heights. Kicking that kind of behavioral programming up to that notch, Henry was what they made him -- a pencil pusher, number cruncher who was afraid of his own shadow, and above and beyond the call of the perfect rube if it all went bad.....the uber ultimate in plausible deniability. He couldn't have behaved any other way.Henry also is a good person, good to the bone, the best of the best ethics, and in recent episodes, we finally find out how that trait (among others) benefits the big picture.So now, when all the questionable scripting and plot points come together in a fluid manner -- as I imagine it was intended -- NBC realizes that they stuck the show in the middle of two ratings nut busters that have been duking it out since they went head to head (CSI: Miami and Boston Public)......so seems to me that NBC is the ultimate idiot. And the public looses out....again.If NBC really thinks their mid-season replacement is going to get them the ratings push they want or need, they are even dumber than I said previously. Another hooray for us on the receiving end.For those of you who haven't watched all or any of the show, time to download it, watch it realtime on the various places on the web, and/or get it all On Demand and watch it from beginning up to now. I promise, you will be just as disgusted and infuriated as I am right now.Once everyone is caught up, let me know and we can all storm NBC together and demand they bring it back, put it in an honest time slot and then make them step away.

robertstevengray When this show first started, I really liked the idea. Christian Slater was believable in his transitions, and the pilot steered clear of frenetic camera work and Paul Greengrass-style editing. But the more it plays, the more I see it making the same mistakes that FX made with "The Riches." It's becoming somewhat joyless to watch. The plots dig down into a sort of hopelessness that requires Henry to be constantly bailed out by some hitherto unknown ally or circumstance.All in all, it has great potential, but takes itself far too seriously, and stays too dark. "24" was constantly dark, but it stayed popular by offering up some escapist thrills and a very likable protagonist. Right now, "My Own Worst Enemy" is dark, but not nearly as likable.

lafierose I absolutely love watching this show every time it comes on Monday. This show gives me a break from reality which is a plus. I love how Edward/Henry go from one to another you never know what time Edward goes from Henry and vice versa, whether it be when Edward is on a mission and it risked exposing him that he is flawed from the design the company has when he is partnered up with a female agent or when Henry is with his family and Edward has to try to play the affectionate husband(by the way which helped save Henry's marriage). Both help out each other in some manner or other. Truly an enjoyable show to watch I just hope it pulls through to becoming one of TVs greatest shows.
