Great Action/Thriller entertainment you cannot take too seriously or analyze too much.Solid acting and action with some great scenery and settings!
It does suffer from the typical "time constraint" syndrome of most TV shows. Meaning that clues are found easily and lead to more clues without much trial and error or investigation that would eat away at a limited 42-minute episode. While the fast pace does play against reality, for me at least it added to the intensity of the episode.
I will be watching every episode as I planned since I first read about the pilot and knew it would be picked up. It's nice to have another action series on TV that feels like each episode is a mini-movie.
Thought the show was excellent. I love Ashley Judd. Only downside was that there were way too many commercials. May have to wait to see it on OnDemand.
Ashley Judd as Jessica Bourne... I loved it. Loved the international feel and flavor and felt the acting was fairly well done and the action sequences were well executed and I totally bought AJ in the role. Some of the scenes seemed to flow almost a bit too fast, but understand it as they had to get all that exposition as well as the awesome action scenes in 40+ minutes. Gonna be a must watch for me and I'm looking forward to the next ep.
what a fun little ride that was! If you have ever enjoyed Ashley Judd in one of her suspense/thrillers, you will enjoy watching this show... it's like mini movies.. and Ashley Judd has always been a joy to watch.
It feels a little predictable and rushed but since it's so fun and the fight scenes were exciting, i'll keep watching and hoping for the moments that catch me off guard. Plus it's like traveling the world from my couch.. the cheap skate in me likey.

I liked it more than i thought i would. It reminded me a little of Jennifer Garner in Alias! I will probably watch it again...
ReplyDeleteCome to think of it why isn't Alias on any channel with reruns?
IT was just about exactly as expected.
