    Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation
    Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
    Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
    Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
    semmerton This show reminds me of ER and Third Watch but still manages to be very original, original story lines and original characters. They are likable yet flawed and I can't wait to get to know them further! The setting of San Francisco is great I'm enjoying seeing how beautiful the city is and full of diversity. Each character as well has their regular storyline that involves their job as well as an interesting personal situation that you want to know more about. I'm not familiar with the actors on the show but each is very talented and they compliment each other well. The action never stops, from the opening helicopter crash to the car crash involving two paramedics. There are touching moments that make you want to cry and yet there is humour as well. All in all a very well put together show that I enjoy watching and hope to watch for a long time.
    firework-1 I love this show; Anastasia Griffith is beautiful and plays smart well, I am a fan of Cliff Curtis, and I have sort of missed Jamey Sheridan since Deakins retired on "L&O: Criminal Intent".But it bugs me that lacks the intensely researched hospital setting of "Scrubs", the procedural accuracy of the police investigations on "Starsky and Hutch" Or the gritty and hardcore legal milieu of "Ally McBeal".As others have pointed out, story and characterization generally should get priority over nailing every little detail of setting.Not every show or movie can go on location or afford to research all relevant social aspects like "Star Wars".
    eaglesoffreedom14 Now it certainly cannot be said that this drama is an accurate representation of life as a paramedic. If you think that's what it should be you will hate it. If being realistic doesn't matter to you, this drama has a lot to offer. Good character development and a wide range of different personalities. Relationships between the characters are particularly fascinating as they all have to deal with life and death on a daily basis. Overall I think it's a well made show with some very good and very interesting characters.I approached this drama with no expectations and look forward to watching it every week.
    johnnymacbest If there's any indication that the fall TV season is shaping up to be something really good then "Trauma" is another candidate for another hit that gives the proceedings loads of gravitas and energy. With ER off the airways and other themed shows vying for our viewing pleasure such as Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice, Trauma takes a different approach as the rescuers are out in the field rather than the emergency room saving lives while also trying to deal with issues in their personal lives at home or when their on the job.Sure, there's some nitpicks I have with the show. The first being is that there's only snippets of character development but the show is fast paced and thrilling with a jaw-dropping opening that will leave you on the edge of your seat. But there's also humor and charm that works really well within the shows atmosphere and little by little you'll grow to like the characters even more.Even with Grey's Anatomy and other similar shows out there, "Trauma" mixes action with humor, charm, and suspense with likable characters and great storytelling. And it's produced by Peter Berg, the man who gave us Hancock, giving it a gritty edge that's hog wild in the world that they created.
