Dorathen Better Late Then Never

HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

mtjohnson-18549 Although I find some of the characters laughably entertaining and I like the urban style of the main actress the plot is ridiculous. To begin with, Rebel quit the police force because her fellow police officers gunned down her brother, (to include her partner who drew his gun on her brother). If her partner would never have pulled his gun then Rebel would not have shot him to prevent him from shooting her brother which subsequently led to the cops who shot him mistakenly assuming her brother actually shot her partner. Now fast forward, she quit the force to become a private investigator and I guess to show her displeasure with the incident and yet now she is working with her former partner in her investigations that was the catalyst for her brother being killed. Confusing I know. That is the fragility of the plot and the clumsy characters. This show is entertaining but only if you don't think to much!!!!

fletch-09485 Considering that I compare all shows whether they are movies or a TV series against movies such as Avalon, Quigley Down Under, Dances With Wolves or Hamlet, the Mel Gibson version, it's rather hard for a simple TV series to compare. However, imho the three critiques already listed aren't quite fair. The show so far isn't nowhere near the block buster it has been made out to be. It's nothing more than OK, depending on your tastes. Imho the main character isn't quite as tough as she needs to be to portray the character she is supposed to be. She also seems to be a bit inexperienced for the part. As far as her being a bent cop goes, uhmmm, no, not really. Nor is she playing a racist like the other critique claims she is. She is reacting no differently than anyone else would react in a similar situation. To top that off one actor doesn't beat around the bush about playing a white racist. Methinks the person writing the critique is very probably a racist himself. Dunno, don't know him but that's how his critique struck me. Anyway, for me the show was just OK. I won't go out of my way to make sure I don't miss any episodes but if it's on, I might watch it again. I do know if it doesn't improve I definitely won't be watching it again which isn't saying much actually. I get more enjoyment out of watching the news than I do anything on television anymore.

b4blue The description of the show is completely false. It says that main character "has always excelled by playing by the rules" and yet the show starts with her blatant brutality and misconduct (yes, I know it is forced on the viewer to accept this as something good, because the guy is a rapist, never mind that this makes her Judge Dread). So she is actually a dirty cop and judging by the comments of her coworkers, a racist dirty cop. How does that make any sense in the direction the writers wanted show to go? And then there is the shooting scene, where all the men in uniforms are portrayed as zombies that want to shoot a black person, even though the scene drags long enough and the suspense and the threat of danger completely dissolves in its own time, without any major problems. They are completely oblivious of the reality and just stay in the zombie mode, trying to kill, kill, kill,...like dogs seeing a squirrel.

iix-31422 I was really hoping for something good here. Oups, Not what I got. Spoilers That character is all over the place. She's hip for 2 minutes, angry for 2 minutes, a racist for 2 minutes. What are you? She is not a cop for sure cause if they are cops like her, a mental ward is a good destination. Then she quits the police force to become a PI because she feel that the police can't do their jobs (Or don't let her kill people that she wants too) A complete farce. In 1 hour and 21 minutes (spending 3 days or 4) she has 14 different hair styles. The face time (phone call) scene is one of the most hilarious thing I have ever seen ( cause it was so bad). She stumbles on a terrorist nest but instead of calling for back-up she brings 1 of the 3 terrorists to the police station her self leaving 2 bad guys behind and the stash of explosives and weapons only to come back to a cleaned out place and cops don't believe her. If you didn't like Iron Fist or Luke Cage. After watching this one,You gonna want to throw your screen out of the window of any floor you live in.
