Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Jerrie It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

diggus doggus Though i liked the pilot, the last three episodes have been on a descending slope; oh, hasn't The Killing thought me anything? Well apparently not because i just dedicated a whole day catching up with NYC 22's last outings and i'm noticing more and more of the same: this is purely a "fantasy" police drama. Now experience tells me that Fantasy and Drama don't normally go well together and there you have it, my review of NYC 22. too many weird, unrealistic things happening which completely befuddle you into thinking, "is this a serious show, i am watching, or complete rubbish?"Rookie cops defusing bombs, radios that malfunction, specialist jobs being assigned randomly, such as investigations or detainee transport .. these are not beat-cop jobs, and have the writers really run out of ideas after four episodes? If you are going to center your show on rookies then you have to come up with rookies-related stories... other stuff won't do.So, it's not really horrible, but we've already got CSI for those times when we want a completely unrealistic show and no thanks, we don't need one more, especially when it's this slow.My vote, a forgettable 5/10

starrywisdom Puerile nicknames, soapy plots, jargony dialogue, unrealistic situations...I tried to give this one a shot, because I like shows with genuine NYC backgrounds and this one delivers on that score.But not on any other. Too many people doing incomprehensible, unrealistic things. Background music is awful, as others have noted. And, well, Adam Goldberg's chipmunk cheeks distract me. So now his character, besides being a failed journalist, is a closet drunk, apparently? Lord, Lord, are we to be spared no cliché of the cop genre? We've had the overbearing dad pushing his kid into the force, the spunky women with chips on their shoulders trying to prove themselves, the ethnic girlfriend with something shady going on, and many more I can't even recall because my eyes are burning with the awfulness of it all. Plus between this and "Blue Bloods", I'm just sick of copycat cops. Won't be watching any further eps. Though it is nice to see Leelee Sobieski.

jhillegass-297-639457 Although there may be some interest in this program for its subject matter I don't think anyone will view this as an accurate portrayal of the life (at work) of a couple of rookies and their Training Officer. There are some production values that have promise but the cast of characters (not the protagonists) are so clichéd that the presentation quickly becomes "boring". I love it when rookies solve the major crime at issue with a display of Sherlock Holmesian insight and street wise experience of Serpico!There seems little depth to most of the characters and the story line seems like it was developed to compress the 1990s into Tuesday night.There have been too many NYPD programs for anyone to suffer the illusion that the Gotham police work is anything but tedium mostly.Sorry this one needs help.

dajuka At first watch, NYC 22 is knockoff of ABC's Rookie Blue. Perhaps Blue set the bar too high for this type of crime/drama/police show. Instead of finding 22 complementary to Rookie Blue, I found it inferior and difficult to watch without making comparisons.Both cop shows with rookie officers, the plot line of the first NYC 22 episode was interesting, but again, I kept seeing where they'd spun off of or would do something very similar in Rookie Blue. Maybe because the shows are on a different network, but it's going to be difficult to make these two shows work in tandem like the CSI's. Unless you just really love rookie cop shows, go with Rookie Blue and don't waste your time with NYC 22. While 22's cast is more established ((total aside, watching Lazarus (Adam Goldburg, sp?), I kept thinking, that's Joey's weird roommate!)) overall, Rookie Blue has a less well known but more cohesive and enjoyable cast.
