    ClassyWas Excellent, smart action film.
    Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.
    Phillida Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
    Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
    foghorn_clj A tv series about people travelling backwards in time from the future. It's been done... With varying levels of success. Continuum? Good. 12 Monkeys? Terrible.Fortunately for Travelers "the mission" isn't the entirety of the show. It also helps that it's not framed as a giant conspiracy by a shadow organisation the protagonists have to fight against. There's deeper character development and relationships that make you care about what happens to these people.Firstly I have to give props to Eric McCormack here. To be able to shake off Will Truman and be able to deliver a completely different, well-rounded character in McLaren is impressive..Secondly there's some pretty impressive young actors in this that aren't completely overshadowed by the gravitas that McCormack brings.And finally you can't go past a team like Brad Wright (creator), Matrtin Wood (director) and co. These are people that delivered 15 + plus years of great television with the Stargate franchise. It's clear they know what the hell they're doing.(It's also super fun to play "How Many Canadian Sci Fi TV Shows Has That Actor Been In".)Bottom line. Well worth you're time.
    david-203-380825 Travelers had me hooked from the first episode. It has a whole host of great characters, each portrayed by first class actors.The storyline is believable and doesn't contain too many holes. Unlike many similar programs the quality continues into the second series. Good direction and cinematography round this up to first class.If you like sci-fi this is one of the best things to watch on Netflix.
    underscore1 I really like this show for its main plot. I was a huge fan of Quantum Leap and there are enough high level parallels. Season 1 was better than a 7. But Season 2 just had too much focus, yet not enough continuity, on the individual '21st" subplots for each character. They focus on a subplot, then it disappears for a while with any hang-ups in one episode mysteriously forgotten in the next. One minute McLaren is getting in trouble for forgetting his anniversary. The next minute they're back in love. One minute Trevor is off to private school, yet that never gets revisited. One minute Carly is working on custody of her son. Then she disappears for days at a time again and yet all is well.It seems the only subplot they really consistently focus on is Marcy.
    sheilakinkead This series is just so lovely. The acting is amazing. The storylines are rich and satisfying. The writers and directors include every detail you would want to see. It's so thoughtfully scripted and portrayed that you buy every motivation and understand the need for every action. I loved Season 1 enough to keep watching, but Season 2 is making the show an all-time favorite for me. Thank you for making it, and don't fan-service, please!
